*High pitched screaming noise* Time to dust off those homoerotic Smash Hits posters, you guys.
*N SYNC, late 90s Backstreet Boys antagonists so indebted to the charisma of Justin Timberlake that they managed to achieve international pop super stardom despite the inclusion of Joey Fatone and Chris Kirkpatrick aka the ugliest two dudes to have taken part in a successful boy band ever, will again flirt with the chance to apply bleach to their tips (also, denim jackets) and dress like toddlers with news that the worst dressed band of the 90s ever are reuniting for an exclusive live performance at this weekend’s MTV Video Music Awards.
The strings attached performance will coincide with the presentation of a lifetime achievement award to Justin Timberlake (no awards for you, the rest), recognising his decades-long crusade to bring sexy back, artistic fluidity and ability to force us to take him seriously even after dressing like a homeless Las Vegas street magician for the majority of his young adulthood.
No pressure but y’all better do the puppet dance.
