Say “Bye Bye Bye” to your hopes and dreams.
Despite recording their first new song in over 20 years, *NSYNC is not planning a reunion tour, multiple sources confirm to Pvnew.
However, we’re told Justin Timberlake will be hitting the road solo.
“Justin is coming out with a new album, so he’s planning a big US tour for 2024,” one music insider spills.
Timberlake’s rep did not immediately respond to Pvnew’s request for comment.
Billboard was first to report the news.
*NSYNC made a surprise appearance at the 2023 MTV Video Music Awards on Tuesday to present the Best Pop trophy to Taylor Swift for her “Anti-Hero” music video.
Just over 24 hours later, Timberlake and his bandmates, Chris Kirkpatrick, Joey Fatone, Lance Bass and JC Chasez, confirmed weeks-long speculation that they have a new track on the way: “Better Place” will be released on streaming services on Sept. 29 in addition to being featured in the upcoming DreamWorks Animation movie “Trolls Band Together.”
*NSYNC, whose hits include “Tearin’ Up My Heart” and “It’s Gonna Be Me,” has not released an album since 2001’s “Celebrity.”
The boy band has reunited a few times since, though, most famously for a performance at the 2013 VMAs and to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2018.
Since *NSYNC’s breakup in 2004, Timberlake has forged a successful career on his own.
The multihyphenate, 42, has released five solo albums and a host of smash singles like “Cry Me a River,” “SexyBack” and “Mirrors.” He has also starred in movies such as “The Social Network” and “Friends with Benefits.”
Timberlake took his most recent album, 2018’s “Man of the Woods,” on tour across North America and Europe. He also headlined the Super Bowl LII halftime show.
