Billboard: 8 Trendy Pieces of *NSYNC Merch That Are Essential for Every Fan’s Collection

Justin Timberlake is making an unforgettable comeback after reuniting with his *NSYNC bandmates for a one-night only concert in Los Angeles for his new album Everything I Thought It Was.

Forbes: Is NSYNC Headed For Another Hit On The Billboard Charts?

On Friday (March 15), Justin Timberlake finally released his long-awaited new album Everything I Thought It Was. The pop set features a number of collaborations, and one was immediately singled out as the biggest of the bunch–and a likely next hit for the singer and the band that made him a star.

Everything I Thought It Was includes a duet with NSYNC, the boy band that helped propel Timberlake to household name status. The singer and his groupmates–who are credited as featured artists on the tune, even though Timberlake is still technically a member–teamed up for the tune “Paradise,” which appears later on the full-length.

Just hours after Timberlake’s new album arrived, “Paradise” has become a sales hit, on iTunes, at least. The song is up to No. 4 on the platform’s ranking of the bestselling tracks in the U.S. (as of publishing). The tune is on the rise, as just a few hours before, it sat just outside the top 10 on the tally.

“Paradise” is far and away the most successful song from Everything I Thought It Was on iTunes in the hours following the album’s release. At the time of writing, the lead single from the full-length, “Selfish,” is the only other top 40-seller on the platform from Timberlake. That track sits at No. 25.

Just one other cut from Everything I Thought It Was, “Drown,” is present inside the top 100 on iTunes. That tune was dropped before the album appeared in full as a promotional single. It became a middling sales hit, peaking at No. 11 on Billboard’s Digital Song Sales chart last week. This frame, it’s disappeared from that tally.

If “Paradise” can continue to sell well throughout the coming week, and rack up a healthy streaming sum as well, Timberlake and NSYNC may be headed for another hit on the Billboard charts. The singer reunited the boy band in 2023 for the single “Better Place” from the latest Trolls film, and it was a success for all involved. The track brought the group back to the Hot 100 for the first time in decades, and it rose as high as No. 25.

Billboard: ‘Ladies & Gentlemen, We Are *NSYNC’: Inside Justin Timberlake’s Historic One-Night-Only LA Concert

It finally happened.

Following all the rumors and cryptic memes last fall that led to an MTV VMAs appearance and a red-carpet group photo thanks to *NSYNC’s new song for the Trolls Band Together soundtrack, fans were left desperate for a live performance from the boy band. After all, it was a band that made its name with performative music videos, blockbuster stadium tours and iconic choreography, so when fans think “*NSYNC,” they think performance. Fans were clamoring for a full tour, sure, but they really would have settled for the band singing live together just one more time.

Well, on Wednesday night (March 13), we got that one more time. More than a decade after they last performed together at the 2013 Video Music Awards as part of Justin Timberlake’s VMA Vanguard Award medley, they once again hit JT’s stage, this time for a one-night-only concert at The Wiltern in Los Angeles ahead of the Friday (March 15) release of his sixth solo album, Everything I Thought It Was.

It all started with a trip down memory lane, when DJ Andrew Hypes played a series of hit Timberlake features, including Timbaland’s “Give It to Me,” Jay-Z’s “Holy Grail” and 50 Cent’s “Ayo Technology.” Justin had included this segment in his other two pre-release shows as well, at his hometown concert at Memphis’ Orpheum Theatre on Jan. 19 and his show at New York’s Irving Plaza on Jan. 31. Hypes had also played a handful of *NSYNC songs at those concerts, but on Wednesday night, when he dropped the first *NSYNC song — “Gone” from 2000’s Celebrity — the curtains opened behind Timberlake to reveal his four bandmates singing harmony on the chorus.

People: Liam Payne Shares New Single ‘Teardrops’ — Written Alongside *NSYNC’s JC Chasez!

Liam Payne‘s latest single is the product of a studio session with a fellow boybander… but not any of the guys you may be thinking of!

On Friday, the 30-year-old One Direction alum dropped his latest single “Teardrops,” a heartfelt ballad written alongside songwriter Jamie Scott and none other than JC Chasez of *NSYNC.

The track, which marks Payne’s first new single in three years, arrives nearly five years after his debut studio album LP1 and follows what Payne has called a “year long process of self-reflection” in the studio with longtime collaborator Scott.

Teardrops is about the vulnerability of heartbreak and the challenge of overcoming those moments,” the singer said in a release.

“This song marks the start of a new beginning, there’s lots more to come in 2024.”

On Instagram, Payne shared with fans Friday that the song itself was “born from many tears, not all mine.”

“I hope you love it like I do and not too many of you can relate,” he wrote, also sharing an image of his 5-year-old son Bear Payne looking up at a promotional billboard for the track with the caption: “I want to be on a billboard one day daddy.”

Chasez, 47, commented some praise for the singer underneath one of his latest Instagram posts, too. “Congrats my guy! Was a pleasure creating with you 🙌,” he wrote.

Songwriting is familiar territory for Chasez, who has previously written for or with the likes of Taemin, NU’EST, DiploDavid Archuleta and The Cheetah Girls. Scott, on the other hand, has worked with Payne in the past on 1D fan favorites such as “Through the Dark,” “What a Feeling” and “Fools Gold.”

Last July, Chasez chopped it up with PEOPLE about how he’s now been writing for himself, too — specifically by crafting two musicals “at the same time.”

“It’s a long haul, but that doesn’t bother me at all. Again, that’s just work, which is fine. And the fun part is you just keep creating, because even with these pieces, they’re not done,” Chasez said. “They’re just at this stage, and the fun part is they’ll get better. But as far as going the distance, I’m going the distance, I’ve gone this far, I’m going all the way.”

In a statement, Payne said, “’Teardrops’ is about the vulnerability of heartbreak and the challenge of overcoming those moments. This song marks the start of a new beginning, there’s lots more to come in 2024.”
