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.'

OnlyFans tennis star claps back at haters with another raunchy post after US Open match got cancelled
American tennis player and OnlyFans star Sachia Vickery has clapped back at haters with a raunchy post on her Instagram. The 30-year-old, currently ranked No. 559 in the world, has faced backlash from fans after revealing she had joined adult content site OnlyFans earlier this year. For $12.99 a month, subscribers have access to 'the content too spicy for Instagram,' according to Vickery's OnlyFans bio. She also charges men $1,000 to date her. Vickery has since faced harsh criticism from traditional tennis fans, who have brutally torn into her over the decision, but now the American has hit back. Taking to her Instagram story on Wednesday, Vickery shared a video of herself in a bikini with the caption: 'Imagine hating me and I'm in my room like this everyday'. The following post on her Instagram story appeared to promote her OnlyFans page. The American, ranked No. 559, played her first match since February on Tuesday when she beat Anastasiya Soboleva in the first round of US Open qualifying. However, Vickery has discovered more lucrative means of keeping herself busy over the past few months - and they don't require her to swing a racket. Her OnlyFans platform teases her 'longest shower vid yet,' strip teases and 'spicier' pictures, while also asking her fans to rate her 'riding skills' as she shares risque videos and saucy snaps. Vickery has banked just over $2million throughout her 14-year career on the court. Outside of the sport, she demands a $1,000 deposit fee just to date her. 'I no longer date for free due to the behavior of men I now require a pre-date deposit send me 1,000 and we can make it happen my cashapp is $Sachiavick,' she told her 39,4000 followers during an Instagram Q&A session earlier this week. While Vickery's move may have sent ripples through the tennis world, she has no regrets. She previously revealed that she's always seen herself as something of a revolutionary. 'I've always pushed boundaries,' she said on the Black Spin Global podcast earlier this year. 'I've always been outspoken about racial hate I get online, bodyshaming. I'm very open about a lot of stuff. 'I'm still playing tennis, my career is still going but I also want to do things outside of tennis. I'm starting to explore more opportunities on social media.' 'Obviously there are levels to OnlyFans, you have athletes like Nick [Kyrgios] and Alex [Muller] who are going to be posting tennis content for the most part and then you have the other complete extreme, which I'm not. I'm in that middle gap,' she added. 'I set it up in January and it just took off. Being a tennis player definitely helped my marketing. I'm at a stage where I don't do the absolute most on there but I'm comfortable as I need to be. I'm doing really well. 'Obviously, I'm going to get some negative feedback but that's just normal. Whatever you do in life there's always going to be some criticism. If I was doing nothing I'd be getting criticism, so I might as well get on the platform and make money while I'm at it.' Yet as she stepped onto the Grand Slam stage in Flushing Meadows again this week, Vickery once again hit back at her critics. 'I'm very open-minded and I don't care what people think of me … it's also the easiest money I've ever made and I enjoy doing it,' said Vickery when asked about balancing the two entirely different worlds together in an Instagram Q&A session. 'I will never talk s*** about girls on OnlyFans ever again for the rest of my life. Because the amount I made on there in my first two days, I am overwhelmed. I am just shook really.' Vickery, whose father Rawle is a former soccer player and brother Dominque Mitchell played football at South Carolina State, turned professional in 2011 after training with USTA and Mouratoglou Academy in France. But her career peaked back in 2018, when she managed a career-high ranking of World No 73. Now, the Florida native has slumped to No 559, without a single victory to her name. She failed to qualify for the Australian Open in January, stumbling in the third round of qualifying, and skipped Roland Garros and Wimbledon all together. However, she appears to save her best performances for the US Open with her best Grand Slam record coming in New York. She's made the second round of the tournament four times. Vickery is far from the first tennis player to have flirted with an alternate career on the x-rated website to fund their tennis ambitions. The sport's renowned babd boy, Nick Kyrgios, raised eyebrows earlier this year when he signed onto a saucy OnlyFans collaboration after his breakup from longtime girlfriend Costeen Hatzi. Kyrgios, who publicly split from his girlfriend of four years in March, hosted a new reality series for OnlyFans TV alongside adult entertainers Sophie Stonehouse and Rachel Starr in June. Titled Smash City, the series saw OnlyFans creators, including Vickery, battle it out on the pickle ball court to win $20,000. Kyrgios first joined OnlyFans in 2023, revealing in a statement that he wanted fans to see 'all different sides' of him after an injury saw him sidelined from his sport.

Friend of Bill Belichick's ex Linda Holliday hits out at Jordon Hudson for 'grossly inappropriate' act
A friend of Linda Holliday has slammed Bill Belichick 's girlfriend Jordon Hudson for 'grossly inappropriate' appearance at a Nantucket Christmas gala last December. Belichick, 73, and Holliday, 62, were together for 16 years, and broke up around September 2022. The following year, and despite their 49-year age gap, Belichick started dating Hudson after meeting her on a flight in 2021. Earlier this month, Hudson and Holliday suffered through an awkward meeting at a fundraiser for Nantucket Cottage Hospital. It was a tense follow-up to Hudson, 24, being kicked out of a Christmas party on the island last year at Holliday's request. Hudson and her beauty pageant bestie Melissa Sapini reportedly enraged Holliday by appearing at the event where her daughters were DJing. They were asked to leave close to the end of the night, agreeing to depart alongside an employee at the venue. As they waited by the exit, Hudson supposedly then told the employee that Holliday had threatened Sapini during the clash on the dance floor. Now, according to The New Yorker, a friend of Holliday has shed light on the situation. Elin Hilderbrand, a novelist and longtime friend of Holliday, said: 'No punches were thrown, no hair was pulled. 'But we did suggest she leave because we thought it was grossly inappropriate for her to be there. Bill and Linda were together since the girls were, like, fourteen years old, and they thought of him as a father figure.' Hudson reportedly refused to leave at first, and the situation escalated enough that a venue employee filed an internal incident report - later published by TMZ. Though the report stated Hudson was 'a paying guest' and had caused no disruption, she was eventually escorted out. Holliday reportedly told staff at the time, 'If this didn't involve my girls, I don't think this would have bothered me as much. The 'momma bear' in me came out.' Hudson has tried keeping a low profile following an excruciating April CBS interview with Belichick, where she was exposed for interrupting questions from off-camera about how the couple met. The fallout led to friends of Belichick publicly discussing an intervention, while others questioned his sanity and if Hudson was taking advantage of him. Then, at the beginning of August, two podcasters claimed they spoke to Hudson over the course of a week in several phone calls that left them with a growing sense of unease. They were trying to get Hudson to appear on their show but talks broke down, with Hudson allegedly shouting and crying over how the podcasters had previously spoken about her. This all comes with Belichick's first UNC game on the horizon. His team faces TCU in Chapel Hill on Monday, September 1. After Belichick failed to clinch another NFL job following his departure from the New England Patriots, he is deeply determined to be a success in North Carolina. Perhaps, then, it is no surprise to Belichick that his ex is causing more trouble at a time like this.

Struggling pop star Ava Max breaks silence over rumored feud with Lady Gaga as furious fans weigh in
Ava Max is speaking out about her rumored feud with Lady Gaga. The American pop star, 31, has long been pitted against Gaga, 39, by music fans due to their strikingly similar looks. Fans have also accused the Sweet but Psycho singer of copying Gaga's signature dance-pop sound. Seemingly fed up with the comparisons and chatter, Ava addressed the drama head on in the lyrics of her upcoming song, Don't Click Play. 'She samples, singing Gaga imitations. Can't kings and queens look good with poker faces?' she sings, referencing her own hit Kings & Queens and Gaga's classic smash Poker Face. 'But I'm loving myself even if you hate it,' adds Ava. The song has already caused quite the stir online, with fans from both sides weighing in on the issue. 'She's flopping so she needs to mention Gaga AGAIN. Work on new sounds, Ms Ava,' commented one. 'I like Gaga, but her fans can be unbearable. They act as if the world revolves around her, while constantly throwing shade at Ava on Twitter and YouTube,' wrote another. A third added, 'Way to stay relevant. While Gaga doesn't need to name drop or address anyone to stay relevant in the game.' Another wrote, 'Not being mean but do people actually compare her to Gaga? I think Ava is very talented I just haven't really seen anyone comparing specifically to Gaga.' This isn't the first time that Ava has addressed the comparisons between herself and the Born This Way singer. In 2023 she told Nylon, 'No matter how many haters there are out there, or people who want to bring you down — or people who think I'm a Lady Gaga comparison, which is huuuh-larious. 'Who doesn't love Gaga?! I can't help that I look like this. I was born the way I was born too!' she continued. 'I can't help that I'm 5-foot-2 as well. Like what do they want me to do, dye my hair black?! I did that, and then they started comparing me to Dua! You can't win.' Last year, both Ava and Gaga went viral on social media after fans noticed how similar the two pop stars look. The confusion began when Gaga posted a closeup photo of her made-up face on Instagram to promote her Haus Labs line of liquid eyeliner. The photo was a hit with fans, but several commenters were shocked at how similar the singer and actress — Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta — looked to Ava. Ava is best known for her hits Sweet but Psycho, Kings & Queens, and My Head & My Heart. However, her career seems to have taken a downturn over the last year. The Wisconsin-born songstress has struggled to crack the charts with all the singles from her upcoming third album, Don't Click Play. Her last track, Wet Hot American Summer, only reached 2.2 million views on YouTube despite its provocative music video.
