Tess Explains It All

JC Chasez calls into Ryan Seacrest!

JC called into Ryan Seacrest’s radio show Monday morning to fill him in on how the whole NSync reunion came about.

“You know, it was a matter of time. Everybody would ask us, ‘When are you guys going to do something?’” JC explains. “First of all, it was the worst kept secret ever, [but] Justin gave me a buzz and he said, ‘Hey man, listen. I’m getting this award and they have given me a pile of time to perform and we started our careers at MTV and I think we should get the band back together.’”

I love that Justin reached out to the guys. I always felt like he was the one preventing them from doing any type of reunion tour. But it’s clear that Justin remembers his roots and still loves the guys that brought him to where he is today.

So how was it when the 5 guys got together to rehearse?

“Literally, two minutes after seeing everybody you feel like no time has passed,” JC admits. “Essentially everybody has remained the same and we all see each other at different times … but this was the first time we had a rehearsal together in 10 years, so everyone was going, ‘Can we go through this one more time slowly?’… so that part was pretty funny.” 

JC also goes on to explain how the reunion wasn’t an easy secret to keep. “When J called me he’s like, ‘Lets really make it a treat and let’s not tell anybody,” says JC, laughing. “I don’t know if there are cameras in the ceiling or whatever but … we were in rehearsal and Lance walked in and said, ‘Well everybody knows know’… and we were like, ‘How in the world did they figure it out?!’”

Could you imagine if viewers literally had NO idea there was going to be a reunion and then all of a sudden at last night’s show Nsync rose to the stage?? It was too much to handle knowing it was going to happen, I can’t even imagine how emotional it would have been not knowing. lol
