Lance Bass Is A Liar
We love this drama! It's long, but worth it!
Princess Frostylocks just got OWNED by New York magazine.
Check it out:
Lance Bass Learns About Damage Control
In this week's issue of the magazine, former 'N Sync star Lance Bass talks to New York's Jada Yuan about battling the city's real-estate market (he's in town to appear in Hairspray on Broadway): "There's a lot of crap here for a lot of money," he said. "I don't think anyone here has any style. I was looking at fully furnished places and it was like, you can either have a bunch of floral prints or some dusty couch from the 1960s."
He also told us about dining at Justin Timberlake's restaurant: "I've been up there a few times … But it's really up there. The Upper East Side? I'm not in college anymore."
But now Bass feels compelled to impugn our reporting, both on his MySpace page and in a statement to Vulture. See the statement, and our refutation, below.
We were going to be nice about this, because we're actually quite fond of Bass, but then we heard that he called Ms. Yuan a dumb reporter on MySpace. So we invite Bass to breath deeply, stop reading Perez Hilton (who posted the story on his own site under the typically over-the-top headline, "Lance Bass Hates New York City"), and take some lessons in reading comprehension. Bass's beef boils down to two points — he says he didn't say New Yorkers have no style, and he does go to Justin Timberlake's restaurant. Oh, and he really loves New York!
New York would like to make the following points: (1) We stand by the interview; Bass was not misquoted. (2) Bass is not quoted as saying New Yorkers have no style — it's clear that he's referring to the apartments he looked at. (3) The piece also does not suggest that Bass doesn't hang out at Justin Timberlake's restaurant. In fact, it specifically quotes him as saying he goes there. (4) Though Bass's quote about his dancing ability ("I was the worst dancer in the band") has not been called into question, we'd like to reiterate that Bass was, indeed, the worst dancer in 'N Sync. (5) Bass now says he's going bi-coastal; he never mentioned that to us, but we're glad to hear it! Welcome to New York, Lance.
Here's his letter in full:
Last week your reporter called me on my cell phone to ask me a number of questions in conjunction with my joining the cast of the Broadway hit musical Hairspray. She came to see me in the show but she didn't come to the after party so she requested an interview later.
I made the comment to her (that she recorded so there is no excuse for the misquote) that when trying to find an apartment here, the first two I looked at had no style. She reported that I said New Yorkers had no style, which I never said. What was conveniently left out was my statement that I am having a great time here, I love the city and I now plan to get a permanent residence here and be bi-coastal.
Later in the story the writer suggests that I don't hang out at Justin's restaurant. I have been to Justin's restaurant a number of times, and have taken my fellow cast members to it on many occasions as well.
I'm sorry floral print couches were reported on in my piece and nothing mentioned of this incredible musical, Hairspray, that I am in and how excited I am to be working and living among some of the greatest people on the planet.
Sincerely,
Lance Bass
Proud New Yorker

Doing Saintly Things
Dawson's Coming Back To TV!
Screw Lance Bass - even mentioning him on this site is BENEATH the hotness of PEREZ HILTON. He has the charisma of an ice cube and even less talent than that….no member brought less to the table in NSync - he wasn't the talented one, the good looking one, the funny one, the good dancer…or even the least attractive one….he was just kinda there. EASILY FORGETTABLE
"Proud New Yorker"???
I just threw up a little in my mouth.
Proud New Yorker???? I'm a native born New Yorker and we have a saying here. You are only a true New Yorker when you are born here, anyone else is a transplanted visitor.
He does NOT deserve to call himsef a New Yorker!!!!
Just leave Lance alone; hasn't the world done enough to him?
It seems fishy to me that the New Yorker apparently retorted with a statement that is filled with all sorts of mispellings. Yes, Lance is a mega douche…. but your shit stinks on this one, Perez.
East Coast boi's call him "fucktard" !
Oh. Lance you Fucktard. He came to my restaurant and ate nothing but Foot Long Hotdogs with soft buns. Than complained that the place is not nearly as good as the country bumfuck places back in Miss. Go back to shitsville you boy band fuck. I bet your parents are proud. Peace out… J.T.
I think if your fame is dependent on being on Perez Hilton's website, that's pretty sad.
Lmfao. This just keeps getting better and better!
If you're going to act like a diva, then own up to it idiot! If you want to come off as a nice guy, THEN ACT LIKE ONE! IT SHOULDN'T BE THAT HARD OF A CONCEPT.
Good one Tracey, Lance-Lie-Alot LOL!!!
I'll take bass over the cunt of all media any day.
HE's telling the TRUTH. And it's NOT just NYers, it all of the NE. Musty basements, orange shag carpet, hideous WALLPAPER!!! Northeasterners have SUCK ASS HOUSES, all except for possibly Martha Stewart.
What queen doesn't love new york. He should savor this moment in the spotlight, cause it will not last forever. ESPECIALLY for him. "He'll be doing flicks as a "bottom" in two years."
I forgot to mention……New york IS the epi-Center of STYLE!!!!
I'm Glad I've seen hairspray with Way more talted people than this
HACK!
Perez, You are being such a queen by attacking a person of such non interest.
And as far as New York Mag, they can go fuck themselves. They are an outdated source of media that got some attention thanks to Lance and you.
I think Lance is so incredibly full of himself.
New York is full of minorities, why would he want to be a part of it
Perez, I'm starting to think you either 1.) have a HUGE crush on Lancey-poo or 2.) Are jealous of him. You are constantly picking on him for no good reason. In fact, you calling him Princess Frostylocks sounds very much like a homophobic statement to me despite the fact that you claim to be gay as a songbird yourself. Oh, and before you criticize Lance's hair you should really try a new colorist yourself and a nice shave.
Lance did NOT get owned by the magazine, Perez. YOU did! They specifically said YOUR site is the one that got the facts wrong. Lance's only mistake is letting himself be dragged through the mud by you on a daily basis and feeding into that instead of just ignoring you. The rest of their mag's retort was actually quite immature and snotty coming from a non-tabloid.
There are nice gays such as Perez and Anderson Copper (unofficially ofcourse) and then there are nasty stupid fags like this Lance dude.
This guy has become such an arrogant A HOLE recently ! Or maybe he always was and I just never paid any attention to him before. It just seems to me that since he "came out" he has had a chip on his shoulder. It's like he is always looking for a reason to "whine" about something. He needs to just shut the heck up and enjoy his newfound gaydom!
You know, I'm really, really glad that Mario broke this story. It pisses me off that this jerk for years tried to disguise the fact that he's gay and then when he comes out, is completely obnoxious to the people (gays and adolescent girls) that he owes his success to. He IS a liar, and the worst of all, a BACKSTABBING liar.
#30….you made my afternoon !!!!!! I love it !
Sorry Perez but New York magazine is no doubt the one lying. Anyone who can read should know by now no matter how reputable the magazines or newspapers claim to be they are forever misquoting and taking out of context or just printing out and out lies. I believe Lance. Look at all the lies you print.
I don't "get" Lance Bass. He either needs to get a life, or quit being such a smart ass. I think he loves publicity.
I think Bass needs to get a life.
He loves the limelight………….which he didn't have in Mississippi.
Douchebag says he's a New Yorker because he's staying there to be in a musical,
after he just slammed numerous things about NY and didn't say anything good about it?
Loser.
What a fucking LOSER!
What gay man does not like New York City? This idiot can't even correctly "be gay." I hope people boycott the show.
He makes gays look bad.
He should never say he is a "proud new yorker," he is no new yorker at all!
YOU DON'T GET TO LIVE IN NEW YORK FOR A WEEK AND CLAIM YOURSELF AS A NEW YORKER. I THINK MANY ACTUAL NEW YORKERS WOULD BE FURIOUS AT THIS OBVIOUS PLEA FOR APPROVAL
Your not a New Yorker Douch Bag!!!
Listen Lance Ass
Shut your trap…

ur a annoying prissy bitch whose career is dead whose trying to get his 15 mins of fame by just bitching about a magazine for posting the damn truth, if u knew she was recording everything u was saying… which in the long run would be posted in a popular magazine, than u should have never said what u said if u can't handle the consequences that come along with it…..well, hun…u look very stupid for calling urself a Proud New Yorker……ur not even from here and thank god ur not cause NEW YORK IS TOO MUCH OF A GREAT CITY THAT WE DNT WANT TO BE ASSOCIATED W ONE OF THE GREATES SCUM BAGS…u make gays look bad, go do urself a favor, stop giving paid interviews [[& when i mean paid, i mean u pay the interviewer]] & leave NY alone…dnt fuck w us cause prissy bitch ur little crown will be smashed into pieces….
Hey fugly! New York is on the cutting edge of design, LA has hooker/user/poseur style like you and your ex Rechen whathisname. Go back to LA, we don't want your fugliness here in NYC.
Lance who??can we talk about people with real talent please?
omg..he better keep this story going. this is the most interesting he's ever been. Seriously.. even if he is in Hairspray..does any one actually give a shit?
didn't think so.
While I'd like to believe Perez bc I can't stand Lance (why must he talk at all?) PEREZ DID F' UP FIDEL…….SHOW ME THE DEAD CASTRO U FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! U LIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! U LIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! UR WRONG, U LIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lance? New Yorker?
Now, THAT'S going too far.
LANCE BASS IS NOT A NEW YORKER. LANCE BASS IS NOT A NEW YORKER. LANCE BASS IS NOT A NEW YORKER. LANCE BASS IS NOT A NEW YORKER. LANCE BASS IS NOT A NEW YORKER. LANCE BASS IS NOT A NEW YORKER. LANCE BASS IS NOT A NEW YORKER. LANCE BASS IS NOT A NEW YORKER. LANCE BASS IS NOT A NEW YORKER. LANCE BASS IS NOT A NEW YORKER. LANCE BASS IS NOT A NEW YORKER. LANCE BASS IS NOT A NEW YORKER. LANCE BASS IS NOT A NEW YORKER.
Lance Bass is the biggest ASS HOLE in the HISTORY of America. Amen.
#103 JAMES IS CORRECT. YOU ARE ONLY A NEW YORKER IF YOU WERE BORN HERE, AND I WAS, TOO.
gotta be born in new york city to be a new yorker…gotta know this town on a primal level!!!!! you can't even think like a ny'er until at least 7 years of living here! i was born here and love living here. "i'm no tramp, but i'm no lady..I'M A NATIVE NEW YORKER!!!!!! i'd hate to be lance now, cause ny'ers are gonna give him an ear full everyday now!!!!
I cannot believe he said he doesn't go to Justin's restaurant on the Upper East Side because he's not in college anymore…… Mr. Bass needs to get his eyes checked because he's obviously seeing things that don't exsist….
Because of that comment he made about the Upper East Side….. I don't believe him when he says he's been there.
LANCE WISHES HE WAS A NEW YORKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HE IS NOT FROM HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Go back to LA! NYC is for real celebs! Boy Bands are over.
Yuck! Go back to LA. NYC is for real celebs not boy banders.
THANK YOU JESUS!!! MY SUNGLASSES ARE COVERING MY PENCIL THIN EYEBROWS. THANK YOU JESUS!!!!! HA LAY LOU YA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YOU ARE WELCOME LANCE'S EYEBROWS. ANYTHING I CAN DO TO AVOID YOUR EMBARRISMENT OF YOUR PENCIL THIN EYEBROWS

MORE FAT BOREDOM
i saw and met lance tonight in hairspray.
and he was beyond nice to me, he signed two autographs for me, took a picture and spent time talking to me, and wished me a happy 16th birthday.
He's an ASS and he should really get over himself!
Remember when nobody knew he was gay, at that time little did we know that
he was really into backstreet boys entrance only!
Agree with #49.
Lance seems like a genuinely nice person - so I believe him completely
You go , Lance , you !
since when did being a new yorker constitute an accomplishment????
u never were in college fun boy
Lance is one ugly chinless cocksucker
Eeew, that Lance Lass !
Why she makes me homophobic !
'A GIRL'S GOTTA DO……….'
On Lance's Hot Hot New Album shim sings Hot Hot standards like….
"I ENJOY BEING A GIRL"
"I'M GONNA WASH THAT MAN (read Man-Mustard) RIGHT OUTTA MY HAIR"
"SOMEDAY MY PRINCE WILL CUM"
plus the theme to "VALLEY OF THE DOLLS"
Perez darling, y am I reading about Lance Bass….He was not famous in NSync and he still isn't because he told us something we already knew….Boring
he signed it "a proud new yorker"??? you have to get groped on the subway or mowed down by a cab at least once before you earn that title.
NOW THAT HE CAME OUT OF THE CLOSET DOES HE THINK THAT MEANS HE HAS THE RIGHT TO BE A FUCKIN ASSHOLE?
Just me, or does he look like the twin of the Hogan kid?
In all truth, Jada Yuan is an idiot. An overprivileged wanna-be writer with the taste and insight of all which that implies.
Lance has turned into a fucking prick! I am friends with him from L.A., and ever since he came out, we ALL have noticed a change…he loves the spotlight, and after Nsync crumbled, he didnt have that…now he has his new "gay" status, and it has made his head so big…
go see hairspray, and afterwards, watch how quick he runs off, signing only 1 or 2 autographs…with his Tracy turnblad of an assistant in tow…I was there 3 nights ago, and aside from the fact that he kept fucking his lines up (ay off the drugs, Lance…your memory will improve!) he looked like shit…
He is a fucking prick, and forgot all the people that supported him….not only the gay guys at clubs that he only seems to pose with now…
FUCK YOU LANCE!
It's so obvious that this reporter was being a dumb bitch. Lance would never saying such things. He's such a normal, down-to-earth guy that it sickens me to think that you people would actually believe this phoney crap about him, and their is a difference between truth and what someone wants to be true.
This reporter was being dumb and I would blame him for saying she was. She was obviously not happy that she had to cover the story, and so she took it out on the article. Apperaently journalism intergruity doesn't account for anything these days. And just so you all know Lance would never say such things. He is one of the most down to earth people and it's a shame that you feel the way you do.
