I recently had lunch with Lance Bass and Robert Sepulveda Jr. to talk about their new gay dating show, Finding Prince Charming. As we discussed the Logo family, I learned that Lance is rooting for Ginger Minj on RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars and Robert is a Detox fan. What I was really curious about was if either of them had done drag.

"I have actually," Lance said. "I am not a pretty woman. The *NSYNC boys did a video that was never released in America, thank God. What was the name of that song? It was when we lived in Germany. Even Lou Pearlman's in the video. I was Baby Spice. We all were Spice Girls. We were toying with what our market was. So we were rock stars, we were hip hop artists, and then of course, we dressed up as the Spice Girls. I was Baby Spice. It was not pretty. I looked like Miss Piggy is what I looked like."
After a little investigative journalism (Google search), I unearthed the long lost video for "U Drive Me Crazy." Although the quality is about as good as you could expect from a minimally circulated late-90s music video, I quickly discovered that JC Chasez does an even better Posh Spice than Victoria Beckham.
The magic happens at the 2:40 mark:
