Justin Timberlake appears to be saying goodbye, goodbye, goodbye to talk of an *NSYNC reunion tour — because he’s the odd man out in terms of who’s willing to talk about it… TMZ has learned.
Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ … Justin and his team have yet to address respective proposals for a possible *NSYNC stadium tour next summer — this despite the fact Low Spear, Chris Kirkpatrick, Joey Fatone It is JC Chasez everyone responded with interest after different promoters made their proposals 4 months ago.
In other words… JT is the only one who hasn’t engaged in these conversations — and we’re told the other guys are disappointed by Justin’s silence.
The reason… our sources say the rest of the *NSYNC guys feel like last year was a tease to the band’s fans that something big was coming — and a 2025 tour would coincide with the band’s 25th anniversary… perfect timing in their minds.
We’re told Sony is also hoping for a big 25th anniversary push for the sake of the band’s back catalogue. As we reported, the band has major record labels snooping around to produce a new single or album.
Remember… the guys in *NSYNC have been showing up for JT a lot over the past year — all in an effort to complement/promote their projects, but from their perspective… the favor isn’t being returned.
Sources close to JT tell us the reason he’s not talking to promoters about a possible *NSYNC stadium tour is because he’s solely focused on his nearly sold-out world tour at the moment, and he’s simply busy.
Still, an *NSYNC reunion could still happen. Our sources tell us that Lance coordinated a meeting between Chris, Joey and JC on Monday in New York to discuss the future of the band and what it might look like if they move forward without JT, should he choose not to take that opportunity.
We’re told Justin was asked to attend today; however, our JT sources say he couldn’t be in New York because he’s in Europe preparing for his show in Poland later this week.
Keep in mind that JT has some legal issues to deal with right now — so he may have bigger problems to deal with than an *NSYNC reunion. It all depends on how you look at it, we suppose.
