I do love the EW year end issue. Always have. And this year there are a hella lot of tributes to Justin, Lance, Brit and the Justin/Brit breakup. Overview- bad press for Brit, solid press for JRT, and just a bunch of laughs at Lance's expense.
Highlights:
1) Top Singles: Cry Me A River- JRT Laddie gets the blues and, on this admirably wierd mix of falsetto and murmured chant, he truly sounds like he means it. Could breaking his heart be Britney's lasting contribution to music?
2) Lance is all over the 2002 timeline.
February 21- Spacing Out: This just in! 'Nsync's Lance Bass is negotiaing a deal in which he'll raise $20 million to hitch a ride on a Russion spaceship in outer space. The next day, Russian authorities deny discussions. More to come on this still developing story...
May 31- Bass Gets a Pass: 'Nsync's Lance Bass says he has won the preliminary go-ahead from doctors to become the first pop star in space. No one has the heart to tell him that the docs thought he'd be staying up there.
July 9- Launch Lad: The Russian Aviation and Space Agency confirms it is in talks to facilitate the star trek of astronaut hopeful Lance Bass. Bass reveals he chose RASA over NASA after a chat with pal Scooby-Doo.
August 8- Launch Lad Grounded: Russian space authorities say plans for Lance Bass' space shot may be scrapped, due to his sponsors' slowness in ponying up the cash. Bass' frantic calls to Anna Nicle go unreturned.
September 3- Lance Bass: Cosmo-not: Despite weeks of training, the Russian officials tell Lance Bass nyet when the boy can't cough up the $20 million fare. In space, can anyone hear you weep into your pillow?
3) Well, of course Justin & Britney are included in the "Broken Hearts Club." They don't know anything we don't. So it's all pretty useless and repetitive and old.
My one comment on all this? I do hope that Lance goes up in April...in ten years...sometime...anytime. Because he really wants it and it could actually happen. Maybe. And then I hope he'll invite me over for coffee and tell me all about it.
