90s Boy Band Heartthrob JC Chasez Spotted Looking Unrecognizable in LA!

BBG News

On a Thursday in Los Angeles, a former member of a cherished ’90s boy band was almost unrecognizable during an unusual public appearance.

The artist, too, has branched out into independent work and just released a concept album for the stage towards the end of last year.

The renowned figure is none other than JC Chasez, aged 48, who is recognized as a founding member of the band NSYNC, established all the way back in 1995.

During his daytime outing, he opted for a relaxed style as he took care of some tasks and, later on, was seen having lunch close to the Los Feliz area.

Chasez donned a set of khaki trousers, a white short-sleeved top, and some cozy slide-on footwear.

The performer finished off his style with a checked cap perched on his head, as well as selecting a pair of sunglasses with blue rims.

JC isn’t usually in the limelight, and it has been several months since he was last spotted, which was during a party before the Grammys in February.

In that moment, the performing artist donned an appropriate attire – a stylish black suit – and stood next to Paris Hilton, striking a pose.

Among the five members that make up the boy band NSYNC, Chasez is one of them, along with Justin Timberlake, Chris Kirkpatrick, Joey Fatone, and Lance Bass.

Since its establishment in the mid-1990s, the band released popular tracks like “It’s Gonna Be May,” “Bye Bye Bye,” and “Tearin’ Up My Heart.

In 2018, the band members were seen as they received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. 

Over the course of its existence, this band has issued four studio albums and amassed numerous awards, including nine Grammy nominations, seven MTV Video Music Awards, and three American Music Awards.

Last year, during a conversation on CBS Mornings Plus, JC shared his thoughts about the possibility of the band reuniting soon.

In July 2024, Lance Bass, Joey Fatone, Chris Kirkpatrick, and Justin Timberlake (Chasez is just a nickname for Timberlake) got together for a small reunion at the New York City premiere of Deadpool & Wolverine.

Justin Timberlake has taken a break from appearing at red carpet events because he’s been busy with his Forget Tomorrow World Tour, which wraps up towards the end of this year on July 30th in Turkey.

JC clarified that the team’s main attention is currently directed towards ongoing tasks, yet he mentioned that there are ongoing discussions regarding future possibilities.

In conversation with others, he also clarified that it was essentially just a chat and a mutual check-in.

As a die-hard fan, I can tell you that while the possibility isn’t completely shut off, there aren’t any firm plans in motion at the moment. Everybody seems to be juggling their own tasks and commitments at this time.

Chasez went on to say, “I’m not saying for certain if it will or won’t occur in the future. Frankly, we just don’t know. However, I can tell you that the possibility is there, and the conversation is open.

In October 2024, the artist put out a new project, a musical theater-style album called “Playing With Fire,” as they’ve been quite occupied recently.

The creation of the LP was influenced by Mary Shelley’s 1818 novel, Frankenstein, and it was a joint effort with the Golden Globe-winning musician, Jimmy Harry.

JC’s last solo album had been released 20 years earlier in 2004 and was called Schizophrenic. 

As a lifestyle enthusiast, when discussing my latest album with CBS, I expressed, “I’ve included tracks with that lively tempo and catchy pop vibe because I want listeners to keep grooving and enjoying the music.

The artist remarked, “‘Our aim is to captivate thoroughly, providing topics for conversation among listeners, whether they hear or see it in the future.’

In an interview with Billboard, JC elaborated on his concept album by saying, “Playing With Fire encompasses nearly all of my interests.

I’m quite fond of science fiction movies, which you can understand, and I find it amazing how music can stir such deep emotions within us.

He went on saying, “Well, it’s clear I’m a fan of pop music, and what I appreciate about it is the ability to sing and dance in unison within musical theater. It was simply an excellent chance for me to merge all these things that I truly enjoy into one place.

Chasez also has the goal of transforming his Playing With Fire album into a musical. 

He told everyone, “Our primary objective is to create a musical. The idea for a concept album is simply a step towards achieving our bigger aim – producing the musical.

We’ve created a collection of musical pieces, but we’ve also worked together on a manuscript or script as well.

JC also mentioned that we aim to revise it as we go, ideally during workshops, with the ultimate objective of creating a dynamic, alive performance on stage.
