Justin Timberlake is reuniting with NSYNC again after seemingly confirming that his bandmates will feature on his new album, Everything I Thought I Was. The Selfish singer set the internet alight when he responded to a fan on TikTok who asked him to blink twice if JC Chasez, Lance Bass, Joey Fatone, and Chris Kirkpatrick, will appear on a song called Paradise – and blink twice he did! His revelation comes after he teased they had been in the studio together and after they reunited on stage at last year's MTV Video Music Awards.

Last year, the former One Direction star revealed that his new music would surprise his fans as he is trying a "different sound". The as-yet-untitled record currently has no release date.
