The tweet will likely add fuel to the speculation that JT and the other members of NSYNC will reunite at the Super Bowl in Minneapolis. Joey Fatone told TMZ earlier this month he would be open to another reunion.
“We’ve done the Super Bowl before,” Fatone said. “It’s one of those things. Just like we did at the MTV Awards. You know, if someone asks to do it, it it’s right, then we do it. If everybody can’t do it, then we don’t do it. It’s pretty simple.”
Lance Bass has also insisted this year that a reunion is happening soon, since NSYNC will be receiving a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. However, there is still no date for the ceremony.
“We’ll be getting back together in a few months when we get our star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame,” Bass told InStyle. “We’re just planning that celebration right now. It’ll be really fun!”
The last time NSYNC reunited was for the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards. Bass said the group only had to rehearse for three hours before the show “and it all came back.”
