Lance Bass
I Made Basically Nothing From *NSYNC!!!
Published
Lance Bass says he’s not rich from his *NSYNC days … revealing the group members made basically no money despite sold-out tours and hit records.
The singer-songwriter appeared on “The Zach Sang Show” earlier this week … during which he got into the group’s finances at the height of their fame — saying they had a $35 per diem, and that’s about it.
Eventually, Lance says the group members got their first check — this at the height of their fame — for only about $10,000.
Lance says this was after the group had made their record company millions … especially via merchandising, which Lance seems to indicate they didn’t get a dime from.
He adds he’s especially upset with the adults who were in the room for telling the teens to just do their dang jobs … instead of standing up for them.
Don’t worry too much about Lance, though … he says he’s done well for himself in the years since — this despite the stigma that many boy band members have faced after their time with the group ends, he says.
As for any regrets … Lance says he wishes *NSYNC would’ve kept working together like the Backstreet Boys — instead of breaking up back in the day.
Bottom line … don’t be shocked to see Lance or the other *NSYNC guys working hard still — the band didn’t set them up for good.
