98 Degrees Says NSYNC Stole the Thunder From Them Amid Comeback Plans



'The Jennifer Hudson Show' Season 2 Premiere Delayed Amid Hollywood Writers' Strike

*NSYNC set the internet ablaze when they reunited at the VMAs on Sept. 12 to present the best pop award to Taylor Swift, and sparked larger rumors of new music, touring and more, much to the delight of fans. But fellow boybanders 98 Degrees, who are making a comeback of their own, were a little less than thrilled at having the competition.

Speaking with Andy Cohen for the host's SiriusXM live show on Tuesday (Sept. 19), the group -- which consists of members Nick and Drew Lachey, Jeff Timmons and Justin Jeffre -- shared their feelings about *NSYNC's return to the scene. Cohen wondered "how annoyed" 98 Degrees felt when the "I Want You Back" singers appeared to make their return.

"Stole the thunder," Nick jokingly replied, with Jeffre adding, "It's a boy band universe."

Drew then gave a serious response, saying that *NSYNC's return can only benefit the entire boyband genre in the long run. "When one succeeds, we all succeed. Because we're all kind of like us, *NSYNC, Backstreet Boys, we're all clumped into the same, into the same kind of pile there. So, if one's elevated, it elevates everybody," he said.

Nick added, "But I mean, happy for those guys personally too, because we obviously know them well at this point. And excited for the fact that they're hopefully gonna do this -- they've held up for a long time, so [have it] be a big moment. Yeah. Fingers crossed."

98 Degrees is currently on its 25-year anniversary tour, which will see the boyband making stops will make stops in Florida, New York and Pennsylvania and more before concluding with a show at The Rady Shell at Jacobs Park in San Diego on Oct. 8.

Watch 98 Degrees talk about *NSYNC's return -- as well as their own -- in the video below.

Osho on Spontaneity

Osho on Spontaneity – Divine purity reduced to practical life means spontaneity Osho – Divine purity reduced to practical life means spontaneity. The spontaneous person is innocent. He has a quality that only children have, and that is the meaning of purity, innocence. He has the quality that animals have and the trees have and which man has lost. To be spontaneous means not to act out of the past, because out of the past is all cunningness, cleverness, calculation, arithmetic. When you act in the moment and it has no reference to your past, the action has a beauty, a purity – the same as a small child’s act. Whether he laughs or cries or goes into a tantrum or becomes angry, all his acts have purity – it is uncalculated. His anger is hot and not cold. The calculated anger is cold. His anger is natural, a responsiveness. He has not brooded over it, he has not planned it. He is just in the hands of nature – hence the beauty. He is surrendered to his nature; he is not trying to cont...
