JC the perfectionist!

JC is a vision in red. Slumped in a seat on the bus, he's sporting a red shirt, a red Kangol cap and red, bloodshot eyes. Mr. Sleepy, as he's sometimes called by his bandmates, has just been roused from one of his many naps. But when the self-described "serious type" begins to talk about 'N SYNC - their success, their future and their work ethic - he couldn't be more awake. For him, the band is everything, which is something that the other fun-loving members of the group know all to well.

"If we make a mistake on stage, I'm the one who says, 'Let's really work on that.' But that's because I see the potential of this group," says JC, 22. "You know, when it's on, it's so on, and once you see it, you want nothing else."

JC's just returned from a trip home to Baltimore, where he visited his family: mom Karen, a writer and editor; dad Roy, who networks White House computers; sister Heather, 20; and brother Tyler, 17. "When I go home, I unwind, eat some Maryland crab," he says. "Being with them makes me feel like I don't have to do anything."

Like the others, JC is girlfriendless. He does, however, have firm ideas of what he's looking for: "I like down-home good girls, ones with good morals. I like the girl who can be herself, and you're not going to find that with a lot of these show-business girls. There's nothing better than an honest, good-hearted person. That's where it's at: You treat people like you want to be treated. I figure if I stay simple and honest, I'll be lucky enough to meet someone like that."

There's just one catch: He can't meet her anytime soon. "I went through a small phase in high school when I was girl crazy," confesses JC. "But now I've got a lot on my hands. I got this gig running me ragged, and this is what I'm focused on. It's one thing to have an album do well, but it's another to create a career. And that's going to come from nothing but hard work and dedication. I figure, 'Okay, I'll bury my personal life for a good three, four years.' You have to sacrifice, but tons of people do it."

JC's Grit-ty Tale

This gorgeous heartbreaker talks about his favorite four-legged pal from the past Nothing is cute than watching JC Chasez's face light up when he reminisces about his childhood pet dog, Grits. Especially when he illustrates how Grits, his sibs and he would frolic together in the snow back home in Washington D.C.

"Every year we used to go sledding in my backyard,"JC smiles. "We'd kick open the gate and we'd just run all the way up the hill and we'd just shoot right down. Sometimes Grits would get in the sled with us and sometimes he would just run down by us. One time, when we got to the bottom of the hill, he was just running so fast that he just ended up rolling."

As adorable as visualizing JC's furry friend rolling down a big snow-covered hill is, nothing tops the story of how he got his name."He was an all black dog, but right under his chin he had all white [hair]," JC explains, "so it looked like he had eaten a bowl of grits!"

Friend 'til the end

Although JC spent most of his life growing alongside Grits, who passed on a couple years ago, the blue-eyed sweetheart has handled the loss like a trooper. "He was as old as I was," JC says of the lurcher, a rare breed. "Actually, he was born a year before I was. So he died when he was probably 20 years old, and that's pretty old for a dog." That may be pretty old for a dog - 140 in people years! - but as any pet lover knows, your dog is never just a dog. Your pet is an extension of your family, like another brother or sister. The only difference is that your pooch never talks back to you (in human-speak, that is) and his nose is always wet.

That said, it's obvious no other dog in the world could ever take the place of Grits for JC. But given all the other types of dogs JC told BB that he can't wait to own and love, it's only a matter of time before a slew of new memories are to be had. "If I get a small dog, I'd get a Jack Russell terrier or something like a little pug," he shares. "But if I get a big dog, I'd probably get a boxer, but I wouldn't clip the ears. I like the floppy ears. Floppy-eared boxers are so cool."

It's too bad JC is so busy traveling around the world with the guys these days. He seems to be suffering from a severe case of puppy love!

When JC Chasez isn't lending his harmonies to the sweet sounds of *N SYNC, it's highly likely that you can find him asleep. "The minute we get in the car, boom, I'm out," the Washington, D.C. native reveals. "The minute we hit an airplane, forget about it. If we're in an airport for more than 20 minutes, I lie down on the floor."

The sensational songster doesn't snooze just about anywhere because he's sick of singing his heart out or because he's being an anti-social snob. (Of course, you'd probably never think that about him anyway.) The fact is that when JC joined *N SYNC, he gave a full-fledged commitment to the group that he'd always give 150 percent of himself. That includes being perky for all their back-to-back performances, round-the-clock practices and, let's not forget, fabulous, adoring fans - and that's where the serious ZZZ's come in handy. "I always want to be rested and fresh," the way-awesome entertainer smiles.

JC's commitment to his singing career and hardworking habits havve earned him a reputation as the ultra-responsible guy of the group. "He's always goal-oriented and focused," Joey says of his songmate. And Chris agrees. "He really takes care of us," He praises.

However, as JC has discovered, setting such high standards for yourself has its ups and downs. Like all of us whose expectations are high, JC sometimes get bummed when he feels like he's floundered a performance or had his head in the clouds instead of on stage. "I get down when I don't perform to my abilities," he acknowledges. "You know, when I feel like I didn't do what I should have done. That drives me nuts."

Chances are that JC's nutty experiences would hardly, if at all, be noticeable to any of us, but he still can't help from kicking himself for them. "I'm pretty hard on myself," he explains.

But instead of getting too far down in the dumps about messing something up, JC relies on his majorly positive attitude to set his mind straight. "You just have to start the next day, basically," he expresses. "You have to put it aside and move on to the next thing and say you're going to do it to the best of your abliliy. You know, you just motivate yourself to do your best." Wow, with awesome advice like that it's easy to see why JC is headed right where he's always wanted to be!

Ever wonder what popular music groups do with the tons of fan e-mail they recieve each day?

If you think they just delete it, the sweethearts from *N SYNC give you reason to think again. Just to give you an idea of how powerful the Internet really is, JC explains that when he answers even one letter, the result spreads like wildfire. "[When] I write back, all of a sudden I'll get like a billion hits the next day because I actually replied," JC says. "I think it's brilliant...it's the bomb."

The downright dreamy dude of *N SYNC - JC Chasez - try to recall his favorite slumber secret.

If you think you're the only one who has problems trying to remember your dreams from the night before, JC is here to tell you that you're not alone! It's true that pretty much everyone from the North Pole to the southern reaches of Tasmania, Australia dreams each and every time they doze off into la la land. It's also true that not being able to fully remember everything you dreamt, however frustrating, is absolutely normal.

"I probably remember one out of 15 dreams," JC Chasez, 22, figures. "It isn't that many. Some of my friends they say they can remember one every night, but I'm just like, 'How?" Perhaps "I Want You Back" warbler JC just has so much going on in his active brain - lyrics, dance moves and what-have-you - that it's harder for him to focus on the dreamy details more so than it would be for, say, his relaxed buddies back home. Also, many people go through periods where they are able to remember a dream each night for several days in a row and then suddenly nothing will come to them for months at a time. So, JC, don't feel bad, you are dreaming, you're just going through a dream detail drought right now.

What inspired this quintet of QT's to start crooning Christmas carols last summer? Quick, think back to August. Do you remember what you were doing? Like most Boppers, you were probably poking around the mall, looking for some cool new back-to-school clothes. You were probably also splashing around a pool and kicking back on a beach towel under the hot sun, trying to catch a few more rays before your summer break ended. Meanwhile, *N SYNC were putting on Santa Claus hats and humming Christmas carols about mistletoe and Jack Frost. Instead of paddling around a pool in the summer sun, they were busy decking the walls of their recording studio in Orlando, Florida with festive red and green lights. No doubt about it, the guys were definitely getting into the Christmas groove a little, um, early this year! That's because they wanted to make sure their latest ablum, Home for Christmas, made it into stores in time for the holidays. Since record companies need lots of time to copy and package CDs, *N SYNC had to get started on their recording sessions for their Christmas album four months before the yuletide season! At first, that wasn't easy for Lance, Joey, Chris and Justin. "It was just hard to get into the Christmas mood," 27-year-old Chris admits. "It's in the middle of August and we're in Orlando. We're in tank tops and shorts, we're sweating and going, 'Okay, we're singing about snow.' It was a little bit confusing." "I could be in a Christmas mood any time of the year!"

But for 22-year-old JC, it was a lot of fun. "You know what?" asks this good-natured guy. "I think I could be in a Christmas mood any time of the year! It's my favorite holiday." It didn't take long for JC's enthusiasm to rub off on his groupmates and get them psyched about Christmas, too. "We all started wearing Santa hats for a little while," JC laughs. "We started lighting candles in the studio and we had red and green lights and stuff like that."

This cutie shares his New Year's resolutions to make himself even better and more fab than he was in 1998. His fans insist that there's nothing JC can do to improve his already-super self. Well, no offense to all those fans out there, but JC Chasez disagrees. This dreamy dude tells BB that he's always looking for ways to better himself. It turns out that JC plans to make getting his bod back in shape is a priority in the new year. He's keeping the resolution he made last year - "to work out more" - and expanding on it. "My New Year's resolution, as far as personal goals, is that I want to treat my body a little bit better because I've been beating it up on the road," says the 22-year-old sweetie. JC has noticed that his stressful schedule, a lack of sleep and a diet of greasy fast food that would horrify any nutritionist have taken a toll on him over the last year. "Lately, I've been tired," he reveals. "McDonald's, donuts, chesseburgers, Coca Cola - that's my diet. It's absolutely not healthy. I just think I need to watch what I eat and take care of myself so I don't burn out."

Want to find out what it would be like to settledown with JC Chasez of *N SYNC? Get the inside scoop on his fantasy future. Jet-setting around the globe, appearing on TV and radio shows and having girls all over the world go ga-ga over him, JC is living out his fantasy life.

Yet when the "Tearin' Up My Heart" hottie sat down and detailed his plans for the future, it didn't take long to figure out that even though this babely guy wouldn't trade *N SYNC's skyrocketing success for anything in the world, this tireless talent is looking forward to settling down to a life that doesn't have anything to do with fame and fortune. JC is totally dumb-struck by all of the possible places where he could permanently settle. "That's wickedly hard," he exclaims. Picking favorites doesn't come easily to JC in the first place, but having traveled the globe with the guys and gazed upon many amazing landscapes makes it even harder for him to select just one place to settle on right now. "Impossible," the 22-year-old muses. "There are just too many good places. I mean, I guess it just depends on what period of my life it is, that's what matters most." One thing is for sure, JC joins his groupmates in wanting to get away someday. "When I settle down and get older, I'd like to kind of retire on a nice little place that has a big yard. Maybe a place on a lake or something," the way-gorgeous guy divulges." But I feel like when I'm young, I should probably be in the city where all the action is."

JC says love starts with trust, it starts with honesty and important..patience, because the guys are everywhere.

JC wears at night for bed..a pair of Calvin Klein pajamas. (On tour) Before he crawls into his bunk, JC throws those bad boys on and he's out cold.

JC travels with yo-yo's. He can even do tricks like "walk the dog" and a few loops

JC is a pretty heavy sleeper and at times, he talks in his sleep. He confesses of once having an entire conversation with his sister while away in dreamland.

In an interview, JC was asked if he were sometimes haunted by nightmares. JC responds, "Uh, I probably had nightmares when I was like 5. You know when you have those kiddie nightmares..with like the monsters and whatnot. No, I don't have nightmares. I just dread those. I'm actually afraid of needles, so the guys kinda tease me a lot, but I don't have nightmares about that."

JC was asked the question, "What would you like to do without being followed by fans"? JC says, "Um, just do a little eating. You know, its kind of tough to talk to people while you're eating. That's about the only thing

Here's a description of what JC would do if you were on a date with him... "If I'm into a girl, I'll take her on romantic dates to see plays. I've even been known to serenade a girl with a song written especially for her." (How romantic is that? I woulden't mind being a part of that! ;o)

INDECENT QUESTION If a fan were to suddenly undress in front of his eyes, JC would.."I would...tell her...to, to maybe knock on Justin's Mom's door or something. How would I explain that..I DON'T KNOW?" "Nah, I don't know what I'd do. I probably would ask her politely to put her clothes back on or something and probably tell her to leave." So any fans thinking of doing this in front of JC, think again! Try Joey, maybe you'll get a

different reaction. ;o)

JC's mother characterizes him as "young at heart." He does a lot of playing in the yard in the neighborhood, throwing the ball in the street, practicing his handsprings in the yard even though he's in his twenties!

JC has always been a workaholic. Once he goes into something, he dives into it with both feet.

The first song that JC ever performed before an audience was Richard Marx's "Right Here Waiting for You."

When JC was in elementary school, for three years his parents took the family on some adventurous summer vacations by automobile! "We traveled out West, we would drive anywhere - we've been to Mount Rushmore, we've seen freak shows on Route 66, we've seen it all. Middle America, out West, we've been to cowboy towns, all that stuff," he says

His first crush ever was on 'Princess Leia' from Star Wars

JC was especially thrilled with the first single from the album, "Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays" because he and Justin both wrote it. They're pretty excited about it

"Sailing" is JC's father's favorite song! "I always heard this song growing up," JC said. "It was my father's favorite song."

In the *N SYNC crew, JC is the guy who keeps things together! "He's the Daddy of the group," explains Chris. "He's the one who is always like, 'I don't think we should go to this party tonight. We have a photo shoot tomorrow, we should stay in and get some rest.' He really takes care of us. He babies us."

When JC was asked the question, "Do you think you're sexy?" he almost refused to answer. "I want another question! No, we ain't askin' me that..naaah!" "Well, actually, I don't give it much thought. Really...I don't." The interviewer then says, "I think everyone does. In the morning, in front of a mirror, 'I think I'm sexy.' I think he does a little." JC says again, "Naaah, (looking all so cute and bashfull ;o) I just sing and dance and that's what I like to do." (of course you're sexy JC!) "Her name was Francy."

Tell us a bit about yourself:

My real name's JC Chasez and I'm 21 years old. I'm originally from Washington DC, but now live in Orlando with two of the band. Likes and Dislikes:

I'm into singing, dancing and writing music. I love the movies and anything that keeps me fit, especially in-line skating - we do it all the time. I really can't stand liars.

Biggest musical influence:

I really like Sting and Seal, they're brilliant writers.

Best thing about being in a band:

The friendship - having people around you so you're never lonely.

Have you ever been in love?:

I was pretty close once, but I was only 15 and so was she. Her name was Francy. She was a beautiful girl inside and out, but it was only a teenage thing. We left each other because I had to move away. Aw, it was so sad.

Who would you have a One 2 One with?:

Jesus Christ. It doesn't come any more huge than that.

Could you be JC's Dream Girl?

So what would it take to win JC's Heart? Could you be the type of girl that he's privately dreamed of meeting someday, too? As BOP HQ discovered, JC has some pretty definite opinions on what kind of girl takes his breath away!

This 22-year-old babe tells BOP that he's turned on by confindence. "I love it when a girl carries herself well and she's proud of who she is and what she does," he shares. "You can see that [confidence] all the way across the room, because believe it or not, it's pretty rare. However, while JC is drawn to girls who are happy with themselves, he isn't into girls who let that self-confidence go to their heads and start acting stuck-up. "There's a fine line between conceit and confidence," he points out. Aside from a strong sense of self-esteem, the characteristics JC admires most in a girl are the same ones he values in his buds. "I look for the same things I look for in a friend, really," he shrugs. "First of all, honesty. Second of all, somebody who can make me laugh, 'cause I'm a pretty serious person, and patience, because this gig has us traveling to 100 different places." Sounds like JC's dream girl will also have to be okay with lots of l long-distance phone calls, too! And now, you know what it takes to win a special place in JC's heart!

Kiss and Tell

JC shares the details on his first lip-locking moment.

JC Chasez's first kissable experience, it took place so long ago, he can barely remember it. And that's not to say JC's had tons of girls to kiss in the meantime. Out of the five lovable and kissable guys in *N SYNC, JC actually chalks up as the most shy and innocent of the bunch. (Don't forget, when he was younger, he attended a strict Catholic school back home in Washington D.C. So, you can imagine what he thought might happen to him if he even tried to look at a girl the wrong way! "I guess I was like 6 or 7 years old," JC, now 22, explains. "Her name was Lea Thompson [no relation to the actress from Caroline in the City]. She was cool." Six or 7 years old, JC? That's not too shabby, after all.

JC's Sleepless Nights

JC shares how he manages to snooze when he has no time to lose

Do you ever feel like there are just not enough hours in the day to do everything that you have to do? JC Chasez of *N SYNC, the dreamworthy dude, certainly feels that way. In fact, between pumped-up performances, tiring travels, rockin' rehearsals and all the rest, there's little time left to enjoy one of life's simple (and necessary) pleasures: sleep. This guy burn some serious midnight oil when touring, but JC says he's come up with some creative ways to get his rest anyway. Smiley guy JC tells BB that getting eight hours of straight snooze time a night is not a reality for him. "You go through the day sleeping 15 minutes here, 30 minutes here, 20 minutes there," JC explains. So his sleeping routine on the road is to catch zzz's whenever and wherever possible. "If I sit down for long, my body goes, 'Okay, you're not tired, but you know what? You need to rest just in case,'" the 22-year-old reports. When JC does eventually drift off to Slumberland, he says he's down for the count. "I'm a pretty heavy [sleeper]," JC admits to BB. "I fell asleep on the plane and we landed and everything and I didn't know it. Lance had to smack me on the back of the head and go, 'Dude, the plane is empty. You're the last one.' I said, 'Oh my goodness.'"

The Music That Moves JC

The musical tastes of JC.

While frantically pushing the scan button on your radio trying to find something decent to listen to, have you ever wondered what songs would make some of your favorite music stars hit stop? Well, we have. And when we ask *N SYNC's JC Chasez what music captures his ears. JC's preferences lean away from the harsh sounds of bands like Offspring and more toward mellow tunes. "People like Sting, like Seal, Stevie Wonder," 21-year-old JC lists. "I don't know, I just love a good song and those people are pretty reliable."

JC Chasez: Truly In Synch

22-year-old JC takes care of the personal stuff, like making sure his bandmates are eating healthy meals and getting enough sleep. "JC is the daddy of the group," Chris shares. "He's the one who is always like, 'I don't think we should go to this party tonight. We have a photo shoot tomorrow, we should stay in and get some rest.' He really takes care of us. He babies us."

Wash-n-Go or Totally Slow?

Imagine you're about to go on your dream date with JC. Would you be totally upset if he took more time primping and prepping for the date than he did actually hangin' with you? Or would the mega-cute crooner be worth the wait, no matter what? Find out if JC's wash-n-go or totally slow in the tale below.Taking a little bit of time to experiment with primping products before he sets out is JC's style.

"I like to try new stuff, I guess, but right now I'm kind of on like a mixed routine," 21-year-old JC shares about how he keeps his hair in place and off of his face. "I'm either using a gel or I like to use wax. Wax is kind of nice 'cause then it still moves a little bit."Sounds like JC's got his 'do down for now, and you can rest assured that this babely ballad-belter will always be washed and ready when he's out and about. "I'm real strict on myself," the Florida native confides. "I always want to be fresh."

Romancing the Radio Waves

*N SYNC rants endlessly about love and relationships on their 1998 self-titled debut CD, but is *N SYNC member, JC Chasez, well-versed in romance as their songs "I Want You Back" and "Tearin' Up My Heart" suggest they are? JC admits that he has a penchant for playing a Casanova. "I guess [I am] to a certain extent, but I'm not like over the top," he claims. "I mean, I'm not quite a flowers-and-candy guy. But the only reason I'm not like that is I don't think it's as original. I'll do it, but I always feel a little funny about it." "I'm not Mr. Romeo" JC also explains that he doesn't think spending megabucks on a girl just to grab her attention deserves the definition of romance either. "I'm not Mr. Romeo who takes girls on yacht cruises and flies them on airplanes to go here and there and [goes], 'Hey baby'" he says, "but, you know, just little things." After all, the old adage "it's the little things in life that count" wouldn't exist if it weren't true.

Keep It All In The Family

This fine guy from Florida has good reason to be keen on his kin, because without his way-cool relations he'd be clueless (tune-wise, that is)! Keep reading, 'cause we're dishing on why this cutie counts his nearest and dearest as musical VIPs! JC is quick to give his pop a thumbs up, even if he didn't pick up his slammin' singing style from his computer-dude dad. "My dad's really been pretty cool," 21-year-old JC enthuses. "He always says, 'If you ever need anything, let me know.' He's a solid individual. He's steady in what he does, and yet he's always looking for more to do and he's always looking to do something positive." Talk about a role model! Seems like whether or not he nabbed his talents from his father, this brilliant babe got a hand-me-down that's a lot more important-a ton of good old-fashioned love!

Devilish Dog or Puppy Love?

JC is way talented, super successful, and got tons of fans hounding him for attention. But is this adorable guy with the puppy-dog eyes as cute and cuddly as he looks?

Sure, this talented Orlando, Florida-based guy has the drool-worthy good looks and to-die-for voice that practically guarantees big-time success. But now that *N SYNC has a smash hit with "I Want You Back," is JC still the nice guy he seems to be, or has fame and fortune changed his outlook from sweet as sugar to rough and humble? After all, hectic schedules and tons of touring are enough to toughen up just about anyone, right? Well, you can bet JC Chasez isn't going to let a little popularity go to his head. In fact, he'll admit to letting his heart lead the way when it comes to a super-sweet subject he really cares about. You see, this diehard animal lover has a passion for pets in all shapes and sizes, and has even found a way to take his craving for cuddling on the road with him! JC is still smarting from the death of his dog, Grits. "I had a dog, but he died about six months ago," the 21-year-old tells. "We still have a cat named Belle, but we haven't gotten another dog since." He now relies on cuddling up with another easy-to-care for animal option. "Usually I keep a stuffed animal from a show to sleep on while we're traveling," the blue-eyed hottie tells us. Even though this sweetie can't keep a pet of his own around these days, he and the other guys of *N SYNC have hatched a bright idea to not only cure their cuddling craving but help out animals in need. For their next tour, the guys hope to adopt a puppy from an animal shelter, take it on tour with them, then give it away at the end of the tour to one lucky fan! Not only do they make a furry friend for a few months, but they also save an animal from being destroyed. Now that's truly puppy love!

JC Needs You!

What does it take to make this *N SYNC babe smile? Tons of dough and lots of cool clothes, right? Wrong! All this gorgeous guy needs to get an ear-to-ear grin is you!

Crooning to a crowd and knowing that *N SYNC touch their fans keeps JC totally happy. "I mean, everybody out there, in some way, shape or form, has identified with some kind of music in their lives," JC shares. "It is the one thing that touches everyone."

Does JC Rock Your World?

Tall, dark and handsome - that's definitely the description of 22-year-old JC Chasez. Just one look and you'll totally be hooked. But JC is much more than simply a gorgeous face - he's also got brains, a delightful personality and a knock 'em dead sense of humor. Though he can be pretty light-hearted, JC's got an intense side, and he's probably the most serious member of *N SYNC. Although he loves to laugh and cut up, he's the guy most likely to leave the party early to get back to work. "I'm always involved with the music," he says. "Working in the studio and rehearsing for shows - that's just another form of relaxation for me. Music will always be my number one priority." Girls rate pretty high on the list of priorities as well, and JC is totally clear about what qualities make the perfect date-mate. "Confidence is definitely an appealing quality," he says. "I like girls who say what they mean and voice their opinions. But the most important quality for me these days is probably patience. A girl would have to be very patient to put up with my work schedule."

What is JC afraid of?

It's the perfect time to ask JC to 'fess up his fears and share what scares him. Here's what JC Chasez had to say. When it comes to scaring JC, there's just one thing in the world that turns his knees to Jell-o. "Man, I'll tell you, I'm terrified of needles," the 22-year-old sweetie says with a shudder. In fact, JC was majorly upset when he found out that he and his groupmates had to get three shots before traveling to South Africa for a concert not too long ago. "I was freaking out," he admits. JC put off going to the doctor's office to get shots for a week before his four groupmates finally dragged him there. "[The nurse] came into the room and I thought it was shot time," he says sheepishly. "She broke out this thing, and I didn't know what it was. I thought it was the shot, so I just yelled and ran out the door. The other guys started laughing so hard. They were like, 'Come back, it's just the ear thermometer! I was so humiliated. But needles invading your body, I don't like it!"

JC's Committed to His Craft

When JC Chasez isn't lending his harmonies to the sweet sounds of *N SYNC, it's highly likely that you can find him asleep. "The minute we get in the car, boom, I'm out," the Washington, D.C. native reveals. "The minute we hit an airplane, forget about it. If we're in an airport for more than 20 minutes, I lie down on the floor." The sensational songster doesn't snooze just about anywhere because he's sick of singing his heart out or because he's being an anti-social snob. (Of course, you'd probably never think that about him anyway.) The fact is that when JC joined *N SYNC, he gave a full-fledged commitment to the group that he'd always give 150 percent of himself. That includes being perky for all their back-to-back performances, round-the-clock practices and, let's not forget, fabulous, adoring fans - and that's where the serious ZZZ's come in handy. "I always want to be rested and fresh," the way-awesome entertainer smiles. JC's commitment to his singing career and hardworking habits have earned him a reputation as the ultra-responsible guy of the group. "He's always goal-oriented and focused," Joey says of his songmate. And Chris agrees. "He really takes care of us," He praises. However, as JC has discovered, setting such high standards for yourself has its ups and downs. Like all of us whose expectations are high, JC sometimes get bummed when he feels like he's floundered a performance or had his head in the clouds instead of on stage. "I get down when I don't perform to my abilities," he acknowledges. "You know, when I feel like I didn't do what I should have done. That drives me nuts." Chances are that JC's nutty experiences would hardly, if at all, be noticeable to any of us, but he still can't help from kicking himself for them. "I'm pretty hard on myself," he explains. But instead of getting too far down in the dumps about messing something up, JC relies on his majorly positive attitude to set his mind straight. "You just have to start the next day, basically," he expresses. "You have to put it aside and move on to the next thing and say you're going to do it to the best of your abliliy. You know, you just motivate yourself to do your best." Wow, with awesome advice like that it's easy to see why JC is headed right where he's always wanted to be!

JC is quite serious and one of my pet peeves he always does is come into a conversation in the middle and asks a question that was asked like 5 minutes ago.. He does that every time! - Justin
