NSYNC’s key request for any potential reunion tour revealed amid fan push after ‘Deadpool’ feature

Talks of an NSYNC reunion have been reignited after the band was mentioned in “Deadpool & Wolverine,” but Chris Kirkpatrick said it would only happen if all the members were truly committed.

While rumors of a possible reunion continue to spread, fans are eagerly anticipating the possibility of NSYNC going on tour or releasing new music as a group.

Kirkpatrick has responded to speculation about a possible NSYNC reunion featuring himself, Lance Bass, JC Chasez and Joey Fatone, but not Justin Timberlake, who has reportedly expressed interest.

The 52-year-old singer has firmly denied the idea, telling TMZ: “It’s just a rumor because there was no discussion. There was no thought of the four of us.”

He also revealed a major obstacle that could hamper any comeback plans.

“It’s the five of us. It’s always been the five of us. We talked about it years ago about maybe the four of us going out. But it just didn’t seem right,” Kirkpatrick explained.

He clarified that NSYNC’s ability to reunite is entirely dependent on all members’ participation, adding that the group would not make any move if Timberlake did not join.

“The reincarnation of whatever it is going to be isn’t necessarily something we want. So if we do anything, it’s going to be the five of us,” he clarified.

“The pressure is definitely on with this movie (‘Deadpool & Wolverine’), and I know it’s pushing us to talk a little more than usual,” Kirkpatrick added. “But we’ll see. It would be great if it happens, and if it doesn’t, I’m happy to be on this tour and doing 2000 pop stuff and enjoying life.”

“Deadpool & Wolverine” opens with Deadpool energetically dancing to NSYNC’s iconic song “Bye Bye Bye.” The dance kicks off an action-packed opening sequence that has been widely shared and mocked across social media platforms.

According to Billboard, “Bye Bye Bye” saw a significant increase in popularity across multiple streaming services following the film’s release. It climbed to No. 32 on Spotify’s daily top 50 chart in the United States. Between July 26 and 29, the song racked up 3.35 million official on-demand streams in the United States, marking a 382 percent increase from the previous week’s 695,000, recorded between July 19 and 22.

After peaking at number four on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2000, the song could potentially make a resurgence on the Hot 100 if streaming continues to steadily increase in the coming months.
