On April 10th, Nick Lashay from 98 degrees dropped a wild story from their early days in the 1990s boy band scene. On their first tour, the label handed them a book, listing the age of consent in every state to keep things straight with fans. They even kept it on the tour bus for a quick reference. The group included Nick, his brother Drew Lache, Jeff Timmons, and Justin Jeffrey, cranking out hits like the hardest thing and because of you. Nick later married Jessica Simpson in 2002, starred with her on that newlyweds reality show, starting in 2003, but they split. In 2006, now he's with Vanessa Lache since 2011, hosting Love is Blind Together. Fans back then were next level crazy, according to Timmons and another doc. Girls would sneak onto the tour bus and ride to the next city without anyone noticing, or hide in room service carts and pop out like a surprise. Money was tight too, with just a small advance from Motown that covered all expenses.

The guys stayed frugal, grabbing cheap eats at Wendy's between studio sessions, and taking the A train home to Brooklyn at 4 a.m. in the dead of. Winter? No fancy rides. All this comes from the new documentary, Boy Band Confidential, hitting Roku on April 13th. Boy Band Live had its highs and gritty lows, straight out the gate. I'm Corey, with the story. That's your entertainment and celebrity news today update. AI powered and always trending.
