Lance Bass is back on The Baub Show and I want to hear from YOU!
August 21, 2011- It is no secret that Lance Bass is a dear friend of mine and I am thrilled to be having him back on the show!
To change it up, I am asking for some input from you, his favorite fans and friends. Typically when artists are on a show, they are asked questions in an effort to get to know them better and plug their latest projects.
Since Lance has not only done thousands of interviews and shared all there is to share (he’s even already written a book about his life), he’s also currently hosting his own weekly radio show on SiriusXM called The Pop Ten (which on a side note, I will be co-hosting this week).
Since this show is all about gratitude, I thought it would be fun to turn the tides and have you guys write a short paragraph or two to me and let me know what Lance means and has meant to you over the years. I can’t promise to get to every single one, but I will definitely read as many to him on the air that I can. Those that I don’t get a chance to read, I will have printed out and hand to him after.
All you need to do is either leave your message in the comment section of THIS BLOG POST or you can email me directly at TheBaubShow@gmail.com. Then be sure and listen in live, this Sunday at 4pm Pacific/7pm Eastern at www.thebaubshow.com to see if yours gets read on the air.
And don’t worry, we’ll still be talking about his latest projects and of course his new show!
Lance,
I’ve been sitting here for nearly an hour trying to figure out how to put into words, just briefly, what an inspiration you have been in my life. From the earliest days of listening to your music, I remember thinking that I’d bet ANYTHING you were not just a talented singer, but a really good person. You’ve always had the most genuine, caring look in your eyes.
When I heard you had come out, I was all the more inspired. As a member of the GLBT community myself, and an ordained pastor who, as if that isn’t different enough is a paraplegic with an absurd looking service dog, I see every day the need for respectable, inspiring role models for people who feel out of sync. You have been and continue to be that for so many. You’ve inspired me to have a voice for all those who feel lthey don’t fit in, to take a very vocal stand against bullying, and to enjoy life in all its wonder. On the toughest days, I can keep this up because you keep it up and stay so positive. Thank you and never forget how loved and respected you are.
In 1996 I started writing a fiction story on-line in which I had Lance gay. Well, if you can’t have gay role-molds sometimes you have to invent them. But even from the Disney concert when Lance said, “I play basketball but I am SO bad at it.” That was me in all my gym classes so I could immediately relate so I guess writing a story about Lance being gay wasn’t that much of a stretch so when Lance came out it was almost a dream come true.
Also I met a lot of wonderful people through that story because I treated NSYNC with respect and it was a possitive story not a soap opera on steriods.(And people liked the idea of Lance being in a gay relationship! most of them were women by the way.) One of the readers surprised me JC’s autograph and one got me a copy of Lance’s book autographed. The one NYSNC concert I went to was when they were here is Minneapolis. I have to smile because it was on Gay Pride weekend. It must be fate!
Since Challenge for the Children, Lance has been out there doing his bit. Through it all Lance has never changed. That IS something to be grateful for. We fans are.

Lance, you are an inspiration not just to young people but to older men and women as well. It was very brave of you to come out when you did, even though many of us believe you were pressured into it. You took the high road, though, and showed the world that it just doesn’t matter if you’re straight or gay. If you’re talented, you’re talented, and you’ve proven that not just with NSYNC but on Dancing with Stars and Hairspray. I hope you come back to Broadway, because you were FANTASTIC in Hairspray, and many of your fans would love to see you perform live again. Thank you for years of entertainment, and I look forward to seeing your future projects.
JLB,
Thank You for all Your wonderful caring work, movies and inspired music.
Hope You will find the real one for the more private part of your life !
I’ve first seen you years ago in RIVERSIDE in Trier (1996) and in Phantasialand in Germany (must have been in spring 1997) but you’re one very special man never to forget.
The Best Wishes from Germany to You!
Dear Lance just a couple things 1. I love u and admire ur courage and strength. 2. Will you and the guys PLEASE get back together at least for a little bit and do consert (tour) reunion?! That would make my life complete
and other people too lol God Bless you!
Dear Lance, thank you for all the inspiration you have given to many of us. I remember years ago, I always wished Nsync would come tour in SA, just so that I could see you in person and not on a tv screen. Can’t imagine the braveness and courage it took in your pursuit to living your life as the person you are, and not the person others make you out to be.
Many hugs from Cape Town, South Africa!!!
Dear Lance,
Wow where do I start? First off, thank you for being you! Your talented, funny & an inspiration to many. You also have a kind heart. I’ve had the pleasure to meet you on several occasions and each one of them made my day/year. I’ve been a fan/supporter since the early *NSYNC days and I will continue to support you in all you do.
Thank you for being you!
Yo te voy amar
