When JC talks, people listen! In this clip he gives a couple of the guys from OKGo some advise backstage at the 2006 MTV Video Music Awards, um, in the loo? *lol* [VIDEO]

I know there is footage out there of JC being sung happy birthday too. I THINK it was at a baseball game? But darned if I can't find it! So, how about JC saying happy birthday instead? *lol* Some old answering machine greetings from back in the day. I believe this is when spankings became popular in the fandom ;-P [AUDIO]

Yes! Today is JC's birthday! Eva, TeArra and myself would like to wish JC a wonderful day and continuing happiness and success! In celebration I made a wallpaper. And look, it's a light color! Miracles DO happen! *lol* [click thumb for full size]

And for just this one day Eva is opening up her LJ to share her JC!Month day 8 post! This NEVER happens people, so enjoy while you can! [click thumb for full size]

I was sweating over this one trying to think of media to go with it. *lol* Then I remembered a certain radio interview with Sirius Hits in 2004 where bets and tazers were discussed. Um, yeah, pretty sure a collective "Ew!" echoed around the world during that one *lol* [AUDIO]

In 2004 JC stopped by the Wayne Brady show to talk about being a solo artist and perform a song with his good friend Tony Lucca. One of my personal favorite appearances of JC's. [VIDEO] [CAPTURES] [AUDIO]

Huh. Did I never rip an MP3 of this performance? *wanders off to look through discs*
ETA : Now I have ;-D

We all know that when JC performs, he leaves it all on the stage. So basically any live footage will do for this one. I've decided to go with footage from the Celebrity tour to link to. [VIDEO] [PHOTOS] [CAPTURES] [ARTICLE]

Avenged Sevenfold just ascended to the top of the Billboard album chart with a strong debut week, but back in 2001, a very different type of group found their way to the pinnacle of the list. On this day nine years ago, 'NSYNC began a three week reign at number one with their third proper album Celebrity. It managed to move 1.9 million units in its first week on the chart, good enough for the second best debut of all time. (The album with the biggest debut? The group's own No Strings Attached.)

Celebrity saw Justin Timberlake, Chris Kirkpatrick, Joey Fatone, Lance Bass and JC Chasez exploring new types of sounds and turning the boy band template on its ear. Like their previous work, Celebrity is full of sugary melodies, dance-friendly beats and aggressive harmonizing, but there is more going on in the tracks than there ever was on any album of the boy band era. There are all sorts of futuristic production tricks, nods to hip-hop, references to obscure European dance genres and a whole bunch of odd sounds, pops, clicks and squeaks. It's a pretty amazing album, and if you think you don't appreciate Celebrity, then you probably don't appreciate pop music.

The best example of their evolution is in the lead single "Pop," which features a killer chorus and layer upon layer of aggressive beats beneath. The video is a technicolor nightmare that not only featured a great send-up of the boy band era but also a clear case for Timberlake as the group's breakout star. [source and video]

In 2005, JC and MTV thought it would be great fun to make a kid think they had put JC's dead grandmother in his parents freezer. JC played the grieving, frustrated grandson to a T. Oh JC, shame on you *lol* [VIDEO] [CAPTURES]

In 2004, JC played a few dates in the UK with one Miss Britney Spears, during which at one point she chased him around with a video camera asking what his favorite sexual position was *lol* Enjoy. [RIGHT CLICK, SAVE... VIDEO] [CAPTURES]
