K if anyone watched "Driven" on VH1.... the one with NSYNC... here's my review and what I thought of it. I was in tears. Literally. I only cried watching Selina, Pearl Harbor, and ..... um Homeward Bound. But I never thought that an hour and a half show on NSYNC would make me cry. Anyone who knows me and wants to watch it.... gimme a call I'll let you borrow the tape. Anyways... I thought the show was great. It made me realize there was so much more to being who they are and how they got there. I mean, yea I knew that Chris started the group and Justin then JC then Joey then some moron who dropped out then Lance, but this was so open with feelings and their parents who cried (Juju's momma and the Phat-One's dad) and then there was Steve Fatone who is another story ALL TOGETHER.
I got home and raced in to put it on and my mom sat with me to watch it, my brother was sorta watchin but he was waiting for Joey to come on, he's like his biggest fan. It's all about JC man....
So the show was really good. It began with Chris, and explaining how his mother had him when she was 16 and she couldn't really take care of him the way she wanted to because his father left them. And how when he was younger looked at everyone dancing around him to remember their moves and sang in plays. His family didn't have much money, none at all to be correct, and he was ashamed of it. Chris didn't want to have free lunches because that ment saying his name in line to the lunch lady and that was hard for him to do so he played basketball in the gym every day and didn't eat lunch. Chris could sing, and once he was older he was in Orlando singing in almost a group and was spotted by the fat ass Lou Pearlman and was taken to Planet Holywood with a friend and the deal was started.
JC (my man, big daddy) was next in the show, and it showed him as the quiet one, sitting on the couch eating chips, proudly holding up a fish with his siblings. His friend in high school I believe brought him to a party and showed him how to dance to some hip hoppish music. It was so cute cause he was doin splits and stuff.... and how he and the friend were chosen to perform to MC Hammer with what I'm guessing was a dance team with two girls and they won first place. So he knew he had something and went to audition for the Mickey Mouse Club. The casting director said, "I saw this JC sitting there, very winning and I literally went 'YOU. Come here. Sing.' And he said 'Oh I don't know if I can in front of all these people' so we emptied the room and when the camera turned on, JC loved that camera." They had the tape and I laughed SI hard cause he just.... I don't know he was so damn cute dressed up so he did a skit, then danced, but what made my jaw drop was when he sang. "He sang Richard Marks' 'Right There Waiting For You'," sais the casting director. JC has the greatest voice in the world, and even at... I don't know 16 or around there his voice cracked but at the end when he said, "I will be right here waiting for YOU,"... there was just so much emotion in the word "you" I wanted to cry, I think I did cry actually. The clips were hillarious cause they showed clips from MMC and just... it was funny to say the least. Man I love that guy.....
Baby JuJu was next in the show, and I thought his mother was so proud when talking about her son it made me smile. Justin's friend Trace came on, and I personally think he looks alot like Justin ony not as hot. Sorry man, you just ain't in a boy band. THE funniest point in the show had to be showing a clip from show and tell or a talent show when Justin was 7 and some boys did a New Kids on the Block parody and Justin just thrusted those hips and my goodness all he little seven year old girls screamed, it was so cute.
