James or p.k.a Lance is the bass of the group(no pun intended). He's a born country boy and I know all of you are just mystified by his deep sexy voice. After the Bass family moved from Laurel to Clinton, the eleven - year - old Lance joined the local community choir. After only one year Lansten had his first engagement with the " Mississippi Show Stoppers ". Joining the " Attache " choir was the next step for this talented kid. This choir, which is popular not only in the USA, toured successfully throughout the nation. Despite his love of music, the young man with blonde hair and green eyes was striving for a more academic career. Lance is also talented in natural sciences and he wanted to become an astronaut. It was, therefore, a difficult job to convince Lansten, who is more the domestic - type, to move to Orlando. Lansten only knew Justin and JC from TV; Joey and Chris not at all. Justin, Chris, Joey and JC are obviously extremely persuasive, as Lance became the fifth and final members of 'N SYNC. The lads have meanwhile become such good friends that they look like five brothers whom you could even discuss your problems with. With his calm, well - balanced and down - to - earth manner Lance has become 'N SYNC's stabilising influence. Lance recovers from the stressful 'N SYNC life playing video and computer games. Lance is also a sport fan. His sports of choice are baseball and swimming. Although Lance is more of the quiet calm type, he is in no way the silent one. Once the ice has been broken he loves talking. He is also an extremely good listener.( Admittedly it is much more refreshing to listen to his sweet bass voice.) On stage Lance is happiest in the background. This doesn't mean he doesn't enjoy being on stage. His friendly and kind face is proof that he takes great pleasure in watching and enjoying the whole show even from the second row. And for all ya'll fans out there he is SO over Danielle Fischnell and "playing the field." Me? I'm after Justin. But Lance is okay. Go back to my homepage for more stuff about Lance.
