Joey Fatone, a member of the iconic boy band *NSYNC, has confirmed that the group is unlikely to reunite in the near future.
In an interview, Fatone stated that the members had a discussion about the possibility of coming together again, but ultimately decided against it.
“Probably not, flat out,” Fatone mentioned when asked about the chances of a reunion.
He explained that the group held a casual conversation, asking, “Hey, do we see anything happening in a couple of years of *NSYNC?” The response was a clear no.
The band members discussed their future but did not make plans for a reunion performance.
During this conversation, the members did not delve into any specific plans or logistics for a performance. Fatone noted that their discussion was more about checking in with one another. “It was literally the five of us going, ‘How’s everybody doing?’” he recalled.
Joey Fatone shared the update while promoting his documentary series.
As Fatone promotes his documentary series, Boy Band Confidential, he expressed doubts about all members wanting to reunite for a concert. He emphasized, “So do I see anything happen in the next two to four years? Probably not. Flat out. Finally got an answer.”
*NSYNC formed in 1995 and went on indefinite hiatus in 2002. The group has reunited on several occasions, including performances at the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards and the 2023 MTV Video Music Awards. However, it seems that a full-fledged reunion may not be in the cards.

Justin Timberlake faced legal scrutiny in 2024 following his arrest in Sag Harbor, New York.
In addition to the reunion news, Fatone’s bandmate Justin Timberlake has faced challenges in recent years.

His mugshot circulated online, and his comment to police, “This is going to ruin the tour,” became a viral sensation.
Timberlake also attempted to prevent the release of bodycam footage from his arrest but was unsuccessful. The footage revealed a friend pleading with officers, “Can you guys please just do me a favor ’cause you loved ‘Bye Bye Bye’ or ‘S---back?’ Do me one favor!”
