Did you recognize it was JC Chasez from the legendary boyband NSYNC?
The HUGE group were known for songs like Bye Bye Bye and Tearin' up my heart.
Stepping out in LA, JC, now 48, looked totally different to when he first shot to fame as part of NSYNC in the 90s.
The singer, whose real name is Joshua Scott Chasez, was seen picking up food near the Los Feliz neighborhood.
JC was dressed causally in a pair of khaki pants and a short-sleeved white shirt.
He completed his look with a baseball cap, shades and comfy slip-on shoes.
JC looked a far cry from his boyband days where his hair was short and spikey, and he was clean shaven.
Instead, his hair is now much longer and he has a beard that was speckled with grey.

FINDING FAME
Before being part of one the most iconic boybands ever, JC starred on The All New Mickey Mouse Club.
NYSNC - which consists of Chris Kirkpatrick, Justin Timberlake, Joey Fatone, Lance Bass, and JC - formed in 1995, but split in 2002.

Ten years later they briefly reunited at the 2013 MTV VMAs.
The band then thrilled fans when they reunited for the single Better Place for Trolls Band Together.
Some of their best songs include I Want You Back, and It's Gonna Be Me.

REUNION TALK
Asked in 2021 about the prospect of an NSYNC reunion, while promoting his movie Palmer, Justin said: 'I don't have a crystal ball for what will happen with the music industry in the months, or years, to come.
'That's something that weighs on my mind in a heavy way.
'We will have to see what happens in terms of live music and I appreciate the question, but my focus right now is on Palmer.'

Jeremy Clarkson renames his trans pig – and makes hilarious new decision on its future
Scroll down to find out which infamous celebrity Jeremy has likened the pig to RASHER DECISION Jeremy Clarkson renames his trans pig – and makes hilarious new decision on its future TELLY farm favourite Jeremy Clarkson has made the rasher decision not to send his tiny transgender pig to the slaughterhouse. While most of the Sun columnist's swine are dispatched to be turned into bacon, sausages and pork chops, he has decided to save diminutive Richard Ham — named after his ex-Top Gear and Grand Tour co-host Richard Hammond. Advertisement 2 Jeremy Clarkson has made the decision not to send his tiny transgender pig to the slaughterhouse Credit: Getty 2 Jeremy has decided to name the diminutive pig Richard Ham Credit: Amazon But in scenes from the latest episode of Clarkson's Farm — streaming tomorrow — viewers discover the pint-sized pig is not being kept purely out of affection. Instead, he is spared the butcher's knife in a bid to get the next lot of female pigs 'in the mood' — and is likened to late Playboy boss Hugh Hefner. Jeremy says: 'The problem is, if he goes on the lorry, he's killed and all we get in return is chipolata and a pork chop the size of a walnut. 'If he stays here, we've got to feed him for no reason. Advertisement 'And that's not farming. 'But the next lot of sows, we're going to use artificial insemination on them, to make them pregnant. 'But we can't do that until they get in heat and they won't get in heat unless there's man pig nearby. 'So why don't we keep him as the farm's man pig, to get the ladies in the mood? Advertisement 'Good old Richard Ham — you could be Hugh Hefner now!' Last week, viewers saw farm manager Kaleb Cooper tell Jeremy his bull, which cost £5,500, might be gay as he showed no interest in breeding with the cows. I don't want folk going veggie due to farming crisis, rages Jeremy Clarkson - so my pub will serve pig uterus & squirrel Then Kaleb informed him Richard Ham was showing signs he might be trans after being bonked by another boar. But Kaleb is still bewildered by Jeremy's decision to keep the little porker, saying: 'What is this farm coming to?'

New Disneyland attraction SLAMMED by Walt Disney's granddaughter who calls mechanical tribute to him a ‘robotic grampa'
Walt Disney's granddaughter says the tribute is 'dehumanizing' 'SOULLESS' DISNEY BOT New Disneyland attraction SLAMMED by Walt Disney's granddaughter who calls mechanical tribute to him a 'robotic grampa' WALT Disney's granddaughter has slammed the entertainment giant for turning its late founder into a 'robotic grampa'. Disney is unveiling an animatronic Walt Disney for Disneyland's 70th anniversary celebration this July - despite repeated protests from his granddaughter Joanna Miller. Advertisement 4 Joanna Miller, the granddaughter of Walt Disney, is against the company's plan to create an animatronic of their founder Credit: Getty 4 Miller says her grandpa would have hated being digitally revived - as pictured in an illustration of Walt Disney presenting a Disneyland model Credit: Disney 4 Pictured is an illustration of an animatronic Abraham Lincoln on a stage Credit: Disney Joanna Miller told the Los Angeles Times on Tuesday that her beloved grandfather would have hated being turned into a talking mechanical replica. 'I think I started crying,' she said, recalling the moment she first saw the figure. 'It didn't look like him to me.' Miller said she voiced her concerns early on, sending a letter to Disney CEO Bob Iger when the idea was first proposed. She said she later met with Iger and the team responsible for creating the attraction, telling him: 'I strongly feel the last two minutes with the robot will do much more harm than good to Grampa's legacy. Advertisement "They will remember the robot - and not the man.' Despite Iger being 'very kind" and despite his promises to protect her grandfather's legacy, she said her request that they scrap the animatronic was ultimately ignored. Miller told the LA Times she wasn't speaking on behalf of any family members except her grandfather and mother. She added that it 'pains' her to call out the very company he created. Advertisement In a Facebook post in November, Miller wrote that the company's "idea of a robotic grampa" made her feel "so so sad and disappointed". She explained: "The idea of a Robotic Grampa to give the public a feeling of who the living man was just makes no sense. "It would be an imposter. They are dehumanizing him. People are not replaceable." Disney announces brand new theme park She also argued that her late grandfather had "told Sam McKim that he never wanted to be an animatronic", claiming that she has been provided with first-hand proof to back this up. Advertisement The figure will appear in a new attraction called Walt Disney - A Magical Life, located in the park's Main Street Opera House. The proposal to show 'what it would be like to stop by Walt's office' was announced by Disney last year. The company said it would be "a fitting tribute" to the man who made "significant advances with Audio-Animatronics". Walt Disney co-founded The Walt Disney Company (originally called Disney Brothers Studio) in 1923, with his brother Roy O. Disney. Advertisement Walt is regarded as a pioneer of Audio-Animatronics, famously bringing Abraham Lincoln to life at the 1964 New York World's Fair. Josh D'Amaro, chair of Disney Experiences, told people at D23, the company's annual fan event: 'Creating our first Walt figure is an idea that's been whispered in the hallowed halls of imagineering for years, decades, even.' He added: 'We just had to wait for innovation to catch up with our dreams. And we're finally ready.' Disneyland California, which opened on July 17, 1955, will celebrate its 70th anniversary this July. Advertisement
