Justin Timberlake's music career is not as huge as it was like a decade ago and they're all getting into their mid to late 40s. It does seem strange that they would not want to take advantage of this time to make some extra money while they still can do the dance routines, etc.

Maybe they don’t feel they need the money?

I mean up until a few years ago Lance was practically begging for a reunion and Joey and Chris do like one off shows with other bands. Seems like it's a case of justin not wanting to do it and the promoters not wanting to do a full tour without Justin.

Justin Timberlake still gets 29 million listens a month on Spotify so I guess he's doing ok.

off topic, but Chris Kirkpatrick was on Dave Barnes podcast not that long ago and it was FASCINATING hearing about the beginnings of Nsync. I had no idea HOW MUCH LEGWORK he put in on the front end.

Yeah he started the band essentially, which is hilarious because he ended up being the guy that no one took seriously. JC and Justin got the solo deals when the group broke up and Chris who started everything got the short end of the stick. If you watch the Boy Band Con, which is a documentary on youtube, literally the next album Nsync put out would've been the first album they would've made real money from since Lou wouldn't have a percentage of it and boom they break up before Chris could get any money off of the album.

Backstreet boys literally sell out arenas around the world and have a multi million dollar vegas residency on top of having a number 1 album a few years ago and a grammy nomination. They're all multi millionaires.
