Lance Bass posted a photograph to his Instagram account this afternoon confirming his engagement to actor/model Michael Turchin. The couple have been together since December 2011. Rumors of the couple’s engagement broke out on Twitter this morning when Turchin tweeted that he was the “happiest guy in the world”.

Bass proposed to Turchin with a black diamond band while in New Orleans just a week after reuniting with N’sync at the MTV Video Music Awards. Prior to the proposal, Bass sent a text to Turchin’s parents asking for permission.
Congratulations to Lance and Michael! I wonder what their wedding will be like…

One of the most anticipated moments of this year’s MTV Video Music Awards (VMA)’s was the rumored Nsync reunion. While the reunion did take place as anticipated by many fans, the reunion as a whole was a bit of a disappointment.

When people heard the first rumors of an Nsync reunion they immediately began to wonder what songs the former pop group would perform. Perez Hilton reported that it would be a medley of hits. However, the performance was simply of “Bye, Bye, Bye”.

The boys did look good during their performance, but being that this was their first performance in 11 years, many had hoped it would last a bit longer. Also, Justin has performed a number of hits both before and after the Nsync reunion. Yahoo reports that Justin’s solo performances totaled over 15 minutes. The reunion seemed a bit force and like something they were doing because they had to do it for their fans, not because they actually wanted to do it.

Nsync’s reunion was reminiscent of Destiny’s Child’s super bowl reunion in which Beyonce allowed her former band mates a few minutes to join her but then took the spotlight back. It was good, but heart breaking for the fans who wanted more of a real Backstreet Boys or even 98 degrees style reunion.
What did you think of the Nsync reunion? Check out the video of the performance below:

Despite Joey Fatone’s lame attempt at covering up the Nsync reunion rumors, Perez Hilton is reporting that the reunion is DEFINITELY on! In fact, he even posted news about what the band is rumored to perform!

As I previously speculated, the Nsync reunion will become a part of Justin Timberlake accepting the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award. The unnamed source confirming the reunion stated:
“They will reenact some of their greatest videos in a medley. Then Justin will sing his new song Take Back the Night and get his [Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award.]”
Fans of Nsync sound like they are in for a real treat! I wonder if they’ll break out their signature doll chains for Bye, Bye, Bye. Ha!

How psyched are you for the pretty much now confirmed Nsync reunion?

Is or isn’t the Nsync reunion taking place at this Sunday’s MTV VMA’s?
Joey Fatone is siding with Lance Bass by saying that the MTV VMA reunion IS NOT happening! However, his recent arrival in NYC, home of MTV’S VMA’s days before the big event seems kind of suspicious!

When questioned about his arrival in NYC, Fatone claimed it was for his cousin’s surprise 40th Birthday party in Staten Island because clearly that is a much bigger deal than reuniting at the VMA’s. LOL!
Fatone was also asked about whether or not he would be at the VMA’S on Sunday night. His response was:
Why the hell would I attend? I mean, for Justin obviously, he’s getting the Vanguard Award, which is cool. We heard about that, and that’s when the rumors started flying about doing all this stuff. Why the hell would I attend? I mean, for Justin obviously, he’s getting the Vanguard Award, which is cool. We heard about that, and that’s when the rumors started flying about doing all this stuff. As far as I know. I haven’t gotten a phone call or anything. Just like his wedding. I didn’t get the phone call or the invite.
Ha his response sounds a bit bitter about not being invited to Justin’s wedding. However, it also sounds like he’s trying a bit too hard to keep the VMA reunion a secret. You might remember last year when Destiny’s Child was rumored to perform at the Super Bowl Michelle Williams tried to deny the rumors by stating that she was appearing in the musical Fela! the night of the super bowl and wouldn’t be able to make it. However, that was later proven to be a lie as Destiny’s Child did, in fact, reunite for the Super Bowl.

If we hear of other Nsync members (other than Justin of course) arriving in NYC we’ll known the reunion is on!

Nsync fans hoping for a reunion may have to hold off a bit longer because according to Lance the reunion is NOT HAPPENING…or at least not at this year’s MTV VMA’s.
Bass addressed the rumors last night on his SiriusXM show, “Dirty Pop With Lance Bass” by stating:
I have to address the rumors…this morning I woke up to a lot of rumors flying [around] that the NSYNC reunion is happening after eleven years at the VMAs this Sunday. Well, let me tell you how this all came about. Justin Timberlake is getting the Michael Jackson [Video] Vanguard Award this Sunday at the awards, so of course people are automatically going to think we’re going to be there performing, but this is exactly how it happened and I knew these rumors were going to fly. We all came down here [to Miami] except for J.C. [Chasez]—J.C. stayed in California, he had to work…Joey [Fatone], Chris [Kirkpatrick] and myself went to go see Justin’s last show with Jay Z at the [Sun Life] Stadium last Friday, and I even took a picture of it, it’s on my Instagram…
Although the news may seem to be a bit of a disappointment upon first glance, fans must remember that Bass didn’t entirely deny an N’sync reunion, but rather a VMA reunion. He seems amazed by the positive response shown by fans over social media as the news of the alleged reunion broke out which is good.

It is also possible that Bass is lying about denying the reunion in order to try to keep it as a surprise. VMA’s are known for surprises, twists, and big musical performances. However, they are not always good at keeping their “surprises” a secret. Past worst-kept secrets include Britney Spears’s 2007 (failed) VMA comeback performance and Janet Jackson’s 2009 Michael Jackson VMA tribute.
Lady Gaga, who is scheduled to perform at Sunday Night’s VMA’s recently commented in an interview with DJ Maxwell”
I’m actually very excited that *NSYNC is making a comeback at the VMAs. I feel like I’m 15!
Gaga might know for sure if Nsync is reuniting as she may have been working alongside them for rehearsals and other show-related business.

Do you believe Lance Bass’s denial of the Nsync reunion? Or are you hoping Lady Gaga and the internet’s speculations of the rumored Nsync reunion are true?

It is being reported that Justin Timberlake may be reuniting with his former band-mates from Nsync at this year’s MTV VMA’s.

Timberlake will receive The Michael Jackson Video Vanguard award at this year’s VMA’s to honor his successful solo music career. It is rumored that as he accepts the award he will first reunit with Nsync for the first Video Music Award performance as a band since 2001’s performance of their hit single, “Pop”. This could be a nice tribute to Timberlake’s former boy band days that are largely responsible for his successful solo career.

The MTV VMA’s will air on MTV on August 25th at 9pm. MTV has yet to confirm or deny the rumors of Nsync’s reunion.
