Hey, remember that little Lance Bass/NY Mag story we told you about earlier? Specifically, the part where Bass (who sometimes dresses up in acid washed man-overalls) describes floral-print sofas as "tacky," and then goes on to complain that Justin Timberlake's NYC restaurant is too far uptown, sniping "The Upper East side? I'm not in college anymore."
Well, apparently Bass has decided to do the only thing befitting of a disgruntled former boy-bander: Overreact big-time, claim this was all part of some crazy New York Magazine conspiracy and then write babyish comments about spunky reporter Jada Yuan on his MySpace page.
Not surprisingly, NY Mag has decided to stand by its story. As such, they've posted a response to Bass' ramblings that both defends Yuan's honor and simultaneously impedes Bass' credibility as a dancer.
Meanwhile, we're still amused by Bass' claim that the UES reminds him of being back in college. Particularly since a quick glance at his Wikipedia entry shows that he never actually made it past high school.

Guess you haven't heard of *NSYNC, eh? I suppose if you knew anything about him or the group, you'd know he started on the road with the group by the time he was 16. He was tutored on the road and received his GED that way. So yes, he did make it past high school. Good job on the reporting though!
