Lance Bass Biography

Lance Bass is one of the most popular and richest Pop Singer who was born on May 4, 1979 in Laurel, Mississippi, United States. Member of the multi-platinum-certified pop boy band NSYNC who founded the music management group Free Lance Entertainment and has participated in other media- related work.

He once starred with Jerry Stiller in the film On the Line.

In 1995, during his junior year of high school, Bass received a call from Justin Timberlake and his mother, Lynn Harless, who asked Bass if he would be interested in auditioning for the pop group NSYNC after the group’s original bass singer, Jason Galasso, had quit. Timberlake’s vocal coach (who had worked with Bass during his time as a Mississippi Show Stopper) recommended Bass as a replacement. Bass was accepted into the group after auditioning in front of the other bandmembers and Lou Pearlman, and soon left school to move to Orlando, Florida, and rehearse full-time. Bass has said that he did not know how to dance before he joined NSYNC, and therefore found much of the group’s choreography difficult to learn. According to an episode of VH1’s Driven, Jan Boltz, president of BMG’s German division, offered NSYNC a recording contract under the condition that they replace Bass, whose dancing, he felt, “wasn’t at the same level as all the others.” However, the other members of the group refused to accept the contract without Bass, and the group’s manager, Johnny Wright, convinced Bolz that Bass’s dancing would quickly improve. Bolz conceded, and the group soon moved to Munich, Germany to record their first album with BMG. ‘N Sync began extensive touring in Europe, and Bass’s mother quit her job to tour with the group as a chaperone, as Bass was still a minor.

After gaining significant notability in Europe, NSYNC was signed to American record label RCA in 1997. The group’s first single, “I Want You Back” began receiving major radio play in the United States, and NSYNC soon found themselves becoming an “overnight sensation”, a period which Bass describes in his autobiography as “the death of my own innocence”. Along with increasing fame and recognition in the United States the band also experienced a highly publicized legal battle with Pearlman, due to what the group believed were illicit business practices on his part. NSYNC sued Pearlman and his record company, Trans Continental, for defrauding the group of more than 50% of their earnings, rather than his original promise of receiving only one-sixth of the profits. The group threatened to leave and sign with Jive Records, which prompted Pearlman and RCA to countersue NSYNC for $150 million US, citing breach of contract. The injunction was thrown out of court and, after winning back their earnings, NSYNC signed with Jive.

He began a year-long relationship with Reichen Lehmkuhl in January 2007. In December 2014, he married Michael Turchin.
