Lol the only thing he has is distracting us with a N'SYNC reunion

I feel like even now it's almost too late. There was a lot of hype that a reunion might be happening, and then all that was really announced (besides the Trolls song) was that he had a new album coming out and a tour. How much was he using the other four to build up interest in his solo endeavors? I don't know, but as a former (and let's be honest, current) *Nsync fan, I felt kind of deflated after all that. I would love it if they truly got back together and did some more new music and a tour, but at this point who knows.

Agreed. I think the issue for him now is that the reunion would definitely help the rest of the guys but I think his image is too far gone for it to help him and nsync fans know the reunion would be very Justin centered which I think many wouldn't want at this point since nothing about him feels authentic at this point. Between putting out a nothing burger album and people being more excited about the nsync song on the record than his songs, he's firmly turning himself into a nostalgia act at warp speed.

I didn’t even watch the video because I felt like it was a stunt for him lol.

a friend went to a reunion and posted a vido where justin is in a different colour suit than the other 4. it should be jc wearing something different but he'd never be such a dickface to pull focus from the group as a whole

Yup. This man is so delusional. He should have done a proper reunion and kept his fucking mouth shut. Instead he thought we’d be hyped for a trolls song?? I mean, I know some ontders fuck with that but can’t say that’s his target audience. AND THEN he took back his apology to brit.
Like…

Yup. And the thing is that Justin has a history of using others to prop up his own career. He did it with Britney and Janet and soon as his reputation was in the toilet and he was actually being held accountable for his actions, he recorded new music with NSYNC and used them to promote his shitty projects. All that hype after the VMAs was squandered so he could announce a solo tour and an album people aren't clamoring for. And I know it must chap his ass that he's having to reunite with the other guys to generate good publicity and get into the public's good graces and I hope it kills him to be outshined by JC at his own concert. He was long overdue for some humbling. As an NSYNC fan, I'd love a reunion but I don't need Justin for it. I'd shell out big money to see just the other 4 but I know that would never happen.

Anyway, hope Joey and AJ get even more publicity for their tour and it's successful so he can be mad about Joey getting good reviews for something while he's getting trashed lol.

I like AJ’s new song better than “Selfish”.

[fromxthexdamage]

Thank you for letting me know he has a new song! Let me go give AJ a listen.

So this is the one thing, the ONLY thing, I defend Justin about lol. Bc the whole story of him being the one not wanting to reunite with the group isn’t true. It’s always been JC that’s not wanted to do it. So I’m assuming they finally convinced him which is why all of this happened.

As much as I dislike this man and want him to go away, he has been doing perfectly fine without *NSYNC. People still eat his shit up. He definitely didn’t need them.

[insomniachobs]

I'm not sure why you're getting downvoted because this has been well known amongst *NSYNC fans for a while. JC has been the hold out because he's been happy hiding in his hermit bubble, producing for other people in between boys' holidays with Chace Crawford and Matt Morrison lol
