Lance Bass: 'It was a blessing to develop diabetes'
Lance Bass says getting diabetes was 'a blessing in disguise'. The NSYNC singer was first diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes during the COVID pandemic but it was later changed to Type 1.5, otherwise known as latent autoimmune diabetes of adults (LADA) and he believes the disease has made him healthier. He told TMZ: 'You know what, it was actually a blessing to develop diabetes later in life because it has made me super healthy. I feel great, better than I ever have, so hopefully I can encourage people out there to take better care of themselves.' He added a warning: 'Kids don't eat all that sugar.' LADA is similar to Type 1 diabetes, where the pancreas stops producing insulin, but develops slowly in adults over the age of 30. Lance, 46, previously admitted it had been "really hard" to keep his condition under control at first. He told PEOPLE: "I developed diabetes during COVID, and I'm really trying to figure out how to control that. I'm definitely conscious of my eating now. "I'm learning what you can eat, when you can eat, when you take your insulin - and all that has just been really hard lately." Lance - who has three-year-old twins Alexander and Violet with husband Michael Turchin - has put a huge focus on his health since he received his diagnosis. He shared: "The older I get, the more I know I have to take care of my body. So I work out when I can. "Exercising is so key right now, but it's hard for me because of my schedule to get to a gym. So I do have a nice set-up at my house and I get 15 minutes here, 20 minutes there. "The biggest thing that I've learned is to drink tons and tons of water. You think you're drinking too much water, [but] you need to drink even more than that."

Who is NSYNC singer Lance Bass' husband, Michael Turchin? He's an actor and artist, and the couple's Park Plaza Hotel wedding was the first same-sex marriage to be televised on US cable TV
NSYNC alum Lance Bass just turned 46 – and there's more than one reason May is a special month for the ex-boy band member. ''It's Going to Be May' time is always the gift that keeps on giving,' Bass told earlier this month. 'We're nostalgic. We really are in the sense of that meme,' his bandmate Joey Fatone added. The pair are referring to a meme based on the NSYNC song 'It's Gonna Be Me' featuring a shot of Justin Timberlake singing the edited lyrics ('It's Gonna Be May') which the internet circulates every year just before the month arrives. But Bass says his twins aren't yet old enough to appreciate the meme. Michael Turchin and Lance Bass on holiday in Egypt.

'We always knew we wanted at least two kids,' Bass told People. Turchin added, 'I like my sister, we were best friends and that was the cool part growing up – I always had a best friend with me all the time.' So, who is Michael Turchin, the man who stole Lance's heart? Here's everything we know about him. Michael Turchin's sister is his twin Michael Turchin with his family when he was a child. Photo: @michaelturchinart/Instagram According to The New York Times, Michael Turchin, a Georgetown graduate who studied acting at Los Angeles' Stella Adler School, hails from a prominent Miami Beach family. His father, Bobby Turchin, followed in the footsteps of Michael's grandfather, Robert L Turchin Sr, whose company built over 100 major buildings in South Florida. Michael has a twin sister, Lauren, with both siblings sharing a birthday on January 14, 1987, per People. He is an actor and an artist Michael Turchin has acted in several shows and films since 2011. Photo: @michaelturchinart/Instagram Per his IMDB profile, Turchin has had minor roles in several films and shows including Alien Abduction (2014), Isolation (2011), and First Period (2013). But his creative streak doesn't stop there – he's also a visual artist.

NSYNC Just Earned Its First Platinum Single In America
More than 20 years after their peak, *NSYNC's 'Bye Bye Bye,' 'It's Gonna Be Me,' and 'This I Promise ... More You' have finally been certified platinum by the RIAA. LOS ANGELES - AUGUST 1999: Pop group *NSYNC, (clockwise L) JC Chasez, Chris Kirkpatrick,Lance Bass, JustinTimberlake, and Joey Fatone pose for an August 1999 portrait in Los Angeles, California. (Photo by) NSYNC is one of the bestselling boy bands of all time, and its legacy is undeniable. The group dominated the late '90s and early 2000s with massive hits, unforgettable videos, and iconic live performances – and by breaking more than a few hearts. But somehow, despite all the success and ubiquity, NSYNC had never managed to collect even a single platinum-certified song in the U.S. — until now. More than two decades after its heyday, the Justin Timberlake-fronted pop outfit is finally catching up and securing some long-overdue wins. Three of NSYNC's most beloved tracks were recently awarded new honors by the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America). "Bye Bye Bye," "This I Promise You," and "It's Gonna Be Me" have all been certified platinum in the United States. Yes, somehow, that's a first. In a time when even rising stars and mid-tier pop acts regularly earn platinum plaques, it's almost unbelievable that NSYNC hadn't already reached this milestone. But while it may have taken longer than expected, these belated certifications serve as a reminder of how beloved the band's biggest singles still are to this day. Among the trio of recent honorees, "It's Gonna Be Me" was the only one that had previously secured any RIAA recognition. Back in mid-2000, when it first exploded, the song went gold. That remained its only official certification until this week. This frame, the band's only Hot 100 No. 1 single – another shocker – finally surges past that mark and earns triple platinum status. That means the pop smash has moved at least three million equivalent units in the U.S. alone. Even more shocking is the news of "Bye Bye Bye" and its new award. Despite being arguably NSYNC's most recognizable anthem, the track had never been certified by the RIAA — at any level. Now, more than two decades after its release, it doesn't just go platinum. It skips every milestone and leaps directly to five-times platinum. "This I Promise You" is also new to the RIAA honor roll. The group's heartfelt ballad has been certified platinum for the first time. Though it was overshadowed by some of NSYNC's flashier releases at the time, the appeal of "This I Promise You" has helped it reach this long-awaited milestone – decades after it first took on the Billboard charts. As those three tracks climb, one of NSYNC's albums also earns a new honor. No Strings Attached adds another certification, moving up to 12-times platinum in the U.S. The blockbuster full-length was named a diamond title by the RIAA back in December 2000. It moved to 11-times platinum the following year, and now it's climbed again. These new wins drastically increase NSYNC's total count of certified songs, but they're not entirely alone. A handful of the group's other hits have also earned RIAA plaques, albeit at lower levels. "I Want You Back" remains steady at gold, a status it first earned many years ago. The same can be said for "Music of My Heart," the group's collaboration with Gloria Estefan, which also holds gold certification and has not yet advanced further.
