Is JC Glued to the Tube?
From the May 1999 BB
Behind his super-wide smile, JC Chasez has a secret.
"I'm a TV-aholic, the 22-year-old babe reveals to BB.
And that's not all. The entertainer adds that the
other famed four of *NSYNC-Justin Timberlake, Lance
Bass, Joey Fatone, and Chris Kirkpatrick-will agree
that there's no messin' with JC when it comes to the
TV! "I must have control of the television," he
smirks.
This couch potato craziness may seem a little strange
coming from JC, especially since he and his songmates
spend most of their time crooning tunes like "Tearin'
Up My Heart" from *NSYNC's 1998 self-titled CD, making
up smooth dance moves for their first-ever West Coast
tour (which you can catch until April) or sleeping so
they can get up the next day and do it all again. But
you haven't heard anything yet!
According to JC, during the times when the guys
finally do get to settle down together in from of the
set, it's his way or the highway when it comes to what
to watch. "If they're not watching what I want to
watch," the stubborn stinker says with a smile, "I'm
gonna leave the room and find another TV!"
And his channel-surfin' songmates won't stop him,
otherwise they might get stuck spending their cherished
downtime watching classic movies rather than box-office
blockbusters. "I like old movies," JC divulges, "and
I get sucked into movies, no matter how cheesy, how
B-rated the movie is."
Of course, JC's got some up-to-date faves, too.
For example, the fab fella will flip to any flick
starring Harrison Ford (of Indiana Jones fame) or Meg
Ryan (most recently seen in the holiday release You've
Got Mail.). And if he comes across one of the Star Wars
trilogies, forget about it-he'll be stuck to the set,
regardless of how many times he's seen it!
JC admits that it's experiences like those when his
TV-watching habits become hard to live with. "I've
seen movies a hundred times, but I watch them like
they're brand-new. The guys get so mad," he chuckles,
recalling some close calls before concerts and
publicity events. "We'll have to go somewhere and I'll
be watching. I'm like, 'Give me five more minutes and
the movie's gonna be over.' They're like, 'You've seen it
six times!"
That's okay, JC, we know exactly how you feel.
Because no matter how many times we see the smooth moves
or hear the terrific tunes of *NSYNC, we still can't seem
to get enough!
I love this boy, but I think he needs to seek help! :)
