Judge JC Chasez’s foppish fashion has gotten toned down a little bit this year. Were you pushing for that from behind the scenes?

[Laughs.] I love JC. JC is always pushing the envelope. He was an integral part of *NSync and he’s a dope, talented guy himself as a singer, dancer, and writer. So he’s always pushing the envelope of style, and I think he still is, but he’s just honing it in this season. What do I want to be? Who do I really want to look like? I think he looks fly, but it’s funny you mentioned it. [Laughs.] That’s funny. [source]
