Apparently, Matt Morrison was an early member of this late-90s boy band.

Yes, he was. They were comprised of the "losers" (the people who didn't make the final cut) from the first Making the Band. Matt was added later on I think, but he wasn't in the final lineup either. I think that was around the time he was in Footloose.

Posted: 12/20/08 at 12:44amYes. He was in LMNT and yes he was added later. If I recall correctly, he originally turned down Rocky Horror to pursue the band but he had left the band by the time he joined Rocky Horror as part of the final cast.

You're reminding me of people you hear at the movies asking questions every ten seconds, "Who is that? Why is that guy walking down the street? Who's that lady coming up to him? Uh-oh, why did that car go by? Why is it so dark in this theater?" - FindingNamo on strummergirl
"If artists were machines, then I'm just a different kind of machine...I'd probably be a toaster. Actually, I'd be a toaster oven because they're more versatile. And I like making grilled cheese" -Regina Spektor
"That's, like, twelve shows! ...Or seven." -Crazy SA Fangirl
"They say that just being relaxed is the most important thing [in acting]. I take that to another level, I think kinda like yawning and...like being partially asleep onstage is also good, but whatever." - Sherie Rene Scott

Oh LMNT.
"It's hereeeeeeee, it's now
Open your eyes and see it
Right here, right now
Open your eyes to loveeeeeeee"
He's got the typical boy-bander look. I think it's hilarious that second article tells people that he sleeps with a stuffed Curious George. How much you wanna bet some fangirl is gonna buy him one now?

When I first saw 'Marci X', I marvelled (and was slightly perturbed) at how convincing Matt was at playing a boyband member. THen I found out about LMNT and it all fell into place. XD

who cares, this old news, when he's now in "glee"?
which got picked up, so away stays he
there's a void on the boards
a tred that's not trod
this old boy band is cold
so this topic is odd
may he earn a nice stash
and return, save his cash
and begin a new page
on his true home

Oh my GOD, I remember this band, vaguely. I lived w/ a boy band stalker in college (and I don't use the word stalker as hyperbole). I could never get around the fact that LMNT didn't stand for anything, but is pronounced "Element." I just couldn't understand why and she got mad every time I asked "Is that their initials?" "Is there some hidden meaning?" "Come ON it can't just be a weird way to spell element."
Glad he found something else to do.

Posted: 12/20/08 at 3:37pm^As did I. They opened for Britney Spears in 2001. It was rather amusing how the crowd didn't enjoy them. I didn't realize till much later that he was there.

Posted: 12/20/08 at 3:39pmMatt spoke about having a fight with Ikaika in an interview I did with him way back when. Something about camera men having to pull them apart at a Macy's shoot. Perhaps thats why/when he left the band.

Posted: 12/20/08 at 6:19pmSeems like Matt has landed the perfect role for himself in "GLEE". The premise of the show sounds interesting and considering it's produced/written by the NIP TUCK guy, I'd imagine there'd be some potential there. In any event, it will sure put him on the map, especially since it'll be following American Idol. I sure hope we haven't lost him from Broadway forever ! Good Luck Matt !
