Lance Bass, band member of 'N Sync, says he's gay and in a "very stable" relationship with a reality show star. Bass, who formed 'N Sync with Justin Timberlake, JC Chasez, Joey Fatone and Chris Kirkpatrick, tells People magazine that he didn't earlier disclose his sexuality because he didn't want to affect the group's popularity.
"I knew that I was in this popular band and I had four other guys' careers in my hand, and I knew that if I ever acted on it or even said (that I was gay), it would overpower everything," he tells the magazine.
'N Sync is known for a string of hits including "Bye Bye Bye" and "It's Gonna Be Me." The band went on hiatus in 2002. Bass has also found headlines for undertaking astronaut training and failing to raise money for a trip into space.

Oh well, I tried to make a joke and it didn't work.
Lance Bass -> Bass Pro Shop -> Lance is gay - > his must be a Gay Bass Pro Shop with weird stuff
The real "Bass Pro Shop" is a perfectly fine sporting and hunting and fishing supply store.
I think that may be NASCAR driver Jeff Gordon, who swears he is straight.

Aha! You've confirmed my suspicions after all:
In other words, the Bass family's business REALLY IS a "sporting house" for the finest gentlemen of Rankin County!
I'd say it's about time for Rankin to have an establishment like that. It's been way too long since the Baptists and their allies cleaned up Casey's Lane!
OMG, you have GOT to be joking ... this is supposed to be Hillary?? NOW?????? That face looks like the one my 83-year-old grandmother had inside the casket but for the open eyes, fer cryin' out loud. That is painful, even for a her -- I mean, good grief.
(They're being a little bit ... erm ... generous with the bust on the bust there, doncha think?? ;) )
Looks like Ace is the Place.
Oh, my!
There's gonna be talk...;o)
Ha! Good one :-D

Judged by these pictures, Christina is indeed a good deal less repulsive than Reichen. But her phoniness is all too apparent. Just like Madonna, she seems to be about 98% showbiz PR spin -- almost a totally manufactured phenomenon.
Bottom line:
I still maintain that any red-blooded Mississippi male would surely prefer Britney as she was at age 18 -- by a factor of at least fifty to one!
You know, hon, I could have lived just fine without this knowledge. :)
That's Seacrest and Stamos.
I've never gotten the slightest hint that Seacrest is homosexual. Annoying? Yes. Homo? No. Just my take.
MM
As long as he's been living with Cameron Diaz, it's doubtful anyone will think he's gay.
Right you are. Seacrest resembles Gordon by the way, but I bet he doesn't whine as much. ;-)
And look who he's hanging out with, LOL! BTW, too bad Ace is so swishy, 'cause he sure is good-looking. What a waste.
"please try to be quicker, I bet my buddy someone with nothing to add would say this or "who's he" within five posts. you lost me a buck by being slow."
Nothing to add?
LOL!
Being slow?
LOL!
No, some of us have higher standards for entertainment and this one isn't on the list. He's a nobody looking for attention in announcing he's gay. Bet ya sales are off.
Yeah, never heard of him nor would I spend money on someone like THIS.
NOOOOOOOOO!!!! I never would have guessed!
Bwaaahaaaa!!!!!
Alot of thought there into the angst of the Mickey Mouse Club, but Britney didn't announce her whole 'virgin' manifesto until her solo career many years later. Lance (or for that matter Justin) would have been smarter to glance around the MMC set and find Christina Aquilera...a much more talented singer who I would bet will have much more career staying power than the current Mrs. Federline.
As for Lance's coming out, I hope he finds peace and happiness, and most of all, has invested his N'Sync money well.
