This week, Tommy is joined by pop music royalty. JC Chasez is widely known as being a lead vocalist in the multi-platinum selling group, NSYNC. The group has sold over 50 million records, and JC was responsible for writing and producing many of the songs on the NSYNC albums. JC is now jumping into the musical theater world and teaming up with producer and composer Jimmy Harry on their new musical theater concept album, “Playing With Fire,” inspired by the timeless novel Frankenstein. Today, JC opens up about what reuniting with his bandmates over the last year has meant to him, that text message from Ryan Reynolds about Bye Bye Bye being featured in Deadpool & Wolverine, how he sees the momentum continuing with NSYNC, if he would revisit another Christmas album with the guys, why he wanted to jump into the world of musical theater with Playing With Fire, why he is so connected to this work, the relevance of the themes of Frankenstein in 2024, what’s behind some of those sexy songs and lyrics on the album, writing songs for NSYNC vs. writing songs for theater, the superstar on Broadway who gave him advice for this new project, if we might see JC on stage anytime soon, what he feels the most proud of when looking back at his career, why he is so grateful to millennials, and so much more.
