NSYNC were five boys who sold tens of millions of records and made just as many young girls scream throughout the late 1990s and early 2000s.
The group formed in 1996, and after a few years of touring and promotions became known for its good looks, cheerful pop melodies, and magnetic appeal to teenaged female fans. The quintet included Justin Timberlake (born 31 January, 1981), Joshua `J.C.’ Chasez (born 8 August, 1976), Chris Kirkpatrick (born 17 October, 1971), Joey Fatone (born 28 January, 1977) and Lance Bass (born 4 May, 1979). The group's first three albums sold over 30 million copies combined; they include *NSYNC (1998), No Strings Attached (2000) and Celebrity (2001). They were the heartthrobs who sang `I Want You Back’ and `Bye Bye Bye’ for their target girlie tweeny demographic.
