JC Chasez

Chasez and Justin Timberlake were the two lead singers of what would become the boy band NSYNC. The group was formed in 1995 by Chris Kirkpatrick and began recording and performing the following year in Europe. In 1998, the band released its debut album *NSYNC which sold 11 million copies, earning them popularity in the United States. After the band had a series of legal struggles with manager Lou Pearlman, they signed with Jive Records. They released their second studio album No Strings Attached in 2000, which became the fastest-selling album of all time, selling 2.4 million copies in the first week. They held this record until 2015 when Adele surpassed the single-week sales record with her third album 25. Singles from the No Strings Attached album included “Bye Bye Bye”, “This I Promise You”, and the No. 1 hit “It’s Gonna Be Me”. The band produced their third studio album, Celebrity in 2001, which sold 1.8 million copies in the first week.

After their Celebrity Tour in 2002, NSYNC went on hiatus[9] and though never formally disbanded, members have stated there no plans to reform or record new music.[10][11] The group performed for the first time together again at the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards to mark Timberlake winning the Video Vanguard Award. In April 2019, Chasez and bandmates Lance Bass, Joey Fatone, and Chris Kirkpatrick performed with Ariana Grande as part of headlining set at Coachella
