He could sing, had straight teeth, and made tons of money. No wonder every girl in the world had a crush on Lance Bass. When I was in Junior High, I swore that Lance Bass would see me at a concert, say, "wow she's cute", propose to me on the spot, then we would get married and have adorable children. My crush on him was so strong that I even dreamed about him taking me to the movies and having our knuckles touch while we shared popcorn. Actually, my first N Sync crush was Justin Timberlake which I totally regret and will deny if you ever ask me in person. Now, Lance on the other hand was humble (I say humble because he was a horrible dancer) and liked the color red. He was totally at the top of my list the entire time. But looking back on my love for Lance, I just can't help but think, "What on earth was I thinking?"
This is how I always remembered my favorite N Syncer.
Innocent eh?
Let's just say that he has changed a bit...
So he's gay. No problem. That's not why I regret my childhood crush on him. I just can't believed I wasted all that time recording every single N Sync TV appearance. You see, it's not like today where we have digital recording. I grew up in the days when if we wanted to record something from the TV, we used a good ol' video tape. It looks like a little black rectangular box that would record images on a small film strip (just for you all born after 1990). Man, it was a pain, but it was worth the 5 min interview of N Sync on Oprah. But why did I do this? Was I the only person? Are there still crazy teens out there that would do obsessive stuff like that?
YEAH! Unfortunately there are teens that are much more obsessive. Poor souls. All I can say is, see a Psychologist. And the sooner the better. That is actually the purpose of this blog. Just take my advice.
Now about him being gay, I was a little disappointed when I found out. I think he "came out of the closet" right before I went on a mission, but I think I didn't find out until I got home. Now, being a member of the LDS church, many people who are not members of the church sometimes get the idea that we are intolerant of those who are homosexual. There are some that are, and that's their problem. I don't understand why. People that are homosexual doesn't make them a disease. It's not contagious. I feel that I am tolerant and don't see a gay person as different. And just because I don't believe in gay marriage doesn't me that I don't think a gay person shouldn't try to enjoy life. I do not encourage homosexual behavior, but if you are gay, I'll support you. And secretly, if you are guy that's gay, start hitting on Lance Bass and ask him out to dinner. Then invite me along so I can get that picture with him I've always wanted and deserve.
For those of you who are wondering, my husband is WAY better looking than Lance Bass.

haaahaaahaa! Yes, what were you thinking? I don't remember you recording every TV appearance. Maybe you started that after I left home to hide your shame from me?
ReplyDeleteAnyhoo, I do remember reading your journal that one time (sorry about that. It really was just once though, I promise. ) professing your love for Timberlake. I wonder when that love died. At least that would have been a respectable crush.
