Lance Bass, the former 'N Sync heartthrob, reveals that he is gay, in an exclusive interview with PEOPLE.
"I knew that I was in this popular band and I had four other guys' careers in my hand, and I knew that if I ever acted on it or even said (that I was gay), it would overpower everything," says Bass, referring to bandmates Joey Fatone, Chris Kirkpatrick, JC Chasez and Justin Timberlake.

Posted: 7/26/06 at 10:06amI thought Lance came out years ago when there was some story on the internet saying that he referred to himself as a "power bottom" - At any rate, the real story isn't that he is gay, but that his face sure looks different...
#18lance bass: i'm gay
Posted: 7/26/06 at 10:07amlance and reichen have apparently been dating for over a year. some sites (like towleroad) had them breaking up (or fighting publicly, anyway) over the july 4th weekend in p-town.

Posted: 7/26/06 at 10:07amLike we all didn't see this coming. Still, good for him! Hopefully now that he's out he'll use what's left of his celebrity to raise awareness for GLBT issues. He's never really had a party-boy image and has always seemed like such a good role model. Damn! I gotta say that I was never a big N'SYNC fan, but now I'm a bit of a Lance fan.

5 years after his fame began to plummet, he comes out. Can you imagine any other reason he'd be on the cover of a national magazine at this point in his "Career"?
The worst part is, his coming out will be used as further evidence that being opnely gay will "Ruin" your career. Make no mistake-- his career was long over.
