JC Chasez appeared on ET on MTV and reiterated that *NSYNC hadn’t parted ways, saying, “We never even left each other… There will be one down the line.” His comments emphasized friendship and openness but stopped short of confirming any concrete plans. Days later, during an appearance on Total Request Live, JC gave a more non-committal response when asked about leaving the group, suggesting that future decisions would depend on the rest of the members. Meanwhile, FOX News published a celebrity column quoting Lance Bass, who stated that a new *NSYNC album would arrive in 2005—after Justin Timberlake completed filming Edison and released another solo album. “We just have to wait for him,” Lance said, framing the delay as logistical rather than emotional.
