Lance Bass Admits He’s Gay

Lance Bass has publicly “come out of the closet.” Not only is he gay, he’s apparently in love and in a relationship that’s quite serious. His man candy is actor Reichen Lehmkuhl, winner of season four’s ”Amazing Race.”

He said that he kept mum because he was fearful of hurting ‘N Sync’s popularity. Apparently he was afraid that if he admitted he was gay, it’d make ‘N Sync Outta Sync.

The couple is developing a sitcom pilot based on The Odd Couple, with Bass’ character being gay.

”The thing is, I’m not ashamed — that’s the one thing I went to say. I don’t think it’s wrong, I’m not devastated going through this. I’m more liberated and happy than I’ve been my whole life. I’m just happy.” -Lance Bass
