Justin Timberlake’s *NSYNC bandmate Chris Kirkpatrick teases reunion saying ‘it feels right’ when the five are together

Founding member of legendary boy band details future hopes

CHRIS Kirkpatrick feels it every time *NSYNC is in the same room together – he is instantly transported back to the ’90s, the wildest of times when Justin, JC, Lance, and Joey took the pop world by storm.

And, in an exclusive interview with The U.S. Sun, founding member Chris said “there’s definitely an interest” in staging a nostalgic comeback.

The band, which sold over 70 million records during a golden spell between 1995 and 2002, hasn’t performed together since 2013.

They took to the stage at the MTV Video Music Awards when Cry Me a River star JT received an award.

*NSYNC joined Ariana Grande at Coachella in 2019, before regrouping again for one night only as part of Justin’s tour last March.

MOVING FORWARD

Chris admits he partied for a few years after the band split 22 years ago, but has thrived in the second half of his musical career.

He stars in his Name Drop podcast with MTV’s Bryan McFayden, and is loving being back on stage as part of the Pop 2000 tour.

Yet the lure of bursting out hits like Bye Bye Bye and It’s Gonna Be Me will never leave.

“There’s nothing set in stone. But with everything that’s gone on, there’s definitely an interest,” Chris told The U.S. Sun.
