N’ Sync’s Lance Bass is Gay – No Duh!

In what seems like today’s dumbest story, former ‘N Sync member Lance Bass revealed that he’s gay.  To anyone that’s ever seen one of their videos or listed to Lance talk, this isn’t new information.

“I knew that I was in this popular band and I had four other guys’ careers in my hand, and I knew that if I ever acted on it or even said (that I was gay), it would overpower everything,” he tells People magazine.  Bass says he wondered if his coming out could prompt “the end of ‘N Sync.” He explains, “So I had that weight on me of like, `Wow, if I ever let anyone know, it’s bad.’ So I just never did.” Read more…

The timing on Lance’s gay announcement couldn’t come at a more convenient time… He and former bandmate Joey Fatone are trying to get a sitcom pilot going where Lance plays, what else… a gay guy.

Lance says he’s in a happy relationship w/ CBS’ Amazing Race winner Reichen Lehmkuhl.

Now that he’s “out of the closet”, maybe we can all get on with our lives…lol
