For many millennials, boy bands like *NSYNC were a big part of, often a foundational part of, their lives. However, very few fans knew that behind the glamour, the members were struggling. A recent conversation between Lance Bass and Zach Sang on the Zach Sang Show pulled back the curtain. The clip, which was then shared on TikTok and Instagram, has already racked up over 2 million views.
The video began with Sang bringing up Bass’s pay during his time with the boy band. Bass said, “Yeah, we got a per diem, $35 a day.” Bass’s revelation prompted a sarcastic comment from the podcast’s other host, who sarcastically said, “Wow. Rich!” Sang then stated, “I mean, you really only ended up making like between five and $10,000 from this thing, though.”
