This was a performance not to be forgotten.
NSYNC was an American boy band formed in Orlando, Florida, in 1995. The group consisted of Lance Bass, Justin Timberlake, Chris Kirkpatrick, Joey Fatone, and JC Chasez. With their catchy tunes and synchronized dance moves, they quickly became one of the biggest bands of the late 1990s and early 2000s.
Now, two members of this prominent group have reunited for an epic revival of one of their most popular songs.
