Joey Fatone Talks *NSYNC's Reunion After 20 Years: 'It Was Awesome'

me — oh, and *NSYNC!*NSYNC fans are a little put off by Justin Timberlake seemingly giving himself his own feature on the boy band’s first new song in over 21 years, “Better Place.” Performers on the track, which was released Friday and is included on the upcoming “Trolls Band Together” movie soundtrack, are listed as “*NSYNC and Timberlake” on some platforms — even though *NSYNC consists of Timberlake, JC Chasez, Lance Bass, and Joey Fatone, and Chris Kirkpatrick.“NSYNC ft Justin Timberlake!?? I think the f–k not,” one fan wrote Friday on X, the platform previously known as Twitter. “I’ve loved Nsync since childhood, and Justin was always my guy, but seeing the song say “N*Sync & Justin Timberlake” is like wtf?” another added.

*NSYNC is back with their first song in more than two decades, and it is a certified bop!

“Bye Bye Bye” to us as a recording act.But the wait for the boy band’s much-anticipated reunion is finally over with Friday’s release of “Better Place,” the group’s first single since 2002’s “Girlfriend.”And Justin Timberlake, JC Chasez, Lance Bass, Joey Fatone and Chris Kirkpatrick sound just in sync as ever on this buoyant bop from the “Trolls Band Together” soundtrack, which indeed takes you to a “Better Place.”After a whistling intro — a hook that repeats throughout the song — it opens with what could be a statement about how they’re still better together after all these years: “It’s some kind of love, it’s some kind of fire/I’m already up, but you lift me higher.”While other members of the group sing lead in the verses, it’s Timberlake who owns the chorus with his familiar falsetto. And when he sings “I’m so excited to see you excited” over the bass-bumping disco groove, it’s as if he knows exactly how giddy this track is making *NSYNC fans all around the world.Timberlake, who also voices the character of Branch in “Trolls Band Together,” co-wrote and co-produced “Better Place” with Shellback, and the track is a satisfying sequel to their previous collaboration on the 2016 “Trolls” smash “Can’t Stop the Feeling!”Like it’s predecessor, it’s the perfect summer song — except it’s arriving at the beginning of fall.But there’s no denying the sunny pop sheen of “Better Place.” And though it feels more like a Timberlake song than an *NSYNC one, it’s not all about the “SexyBack” singer — as those creamy harmonies attest.The tune previews the “Trolls Band Together” soundtrack” — with Timberlake returning as executive music producer — which will be released on Oct.

The engaging and surprising crime film “Reptile” is flying slightly under the radar and perhaps even somewhat underestimated. Maybe it is because it’s a Netflix film, which often falls into—one piece of content of many, for better or worse—maybe it’s because it’s been marketed in a pretty standard straightforward way that makes it look like a prototypical crime or killer procedural (hey, they have to sell these things in the simplest ways they can).

Earlier this month *NSync, the boyband comprising Justin Timberlake, Lance Bass, JC Chasez, Chris Kirkpatrick, and Joey Fatone, announced their return after more than two decades away.
