Career

Bass began his musical career in the seventh grade in the school chorus. He later joined Mississippi Show Stoppers, a state-wide group sponsored by the Mississippi Agriculture and Forestry Museum. He joined Mickey Mouse Club alumni JC Chasez and Justin Timberlake, along with Joey Fatone and Chris Kirkpatrick, in 'N Sync, a boy band turned overnight sensation. Lance was considered the "quiet one" of the group.

Bass starred in the 2001 motion picture On the Line, which grossed only $4.3 million at the US domestic box office, but had a production budget of $16 million. The film was produced by Bacon & Eggs LLC (formerly A Happy Place), a company owned by Bass, which is currently producing a new film entitled Lovewrecked. In addition, Bass formed a music management company called Free Lance Entertainment, which is now defunct. The only album released through Free Lance was Reach by Meredith Edwards.

Bass was featured as a voice actor for the video game Kingdom Hearts, voicing Sephiroth. Other voice acting guest spots by Bass include Higglytown Heroes, Kim Possible, and Robot Chicken.

2006 brought Bass back into the public eye with his appearance in the CBS primetime series Gameshow Marathon. Bass and former bandmate Fatone are developing a sitcom pilot based on the The Odd Couple. Bass's character will be gay. [2]

Space flight plans

In August of 2002, Bass entered cosmonaut training at Star City, Russia. He was scheduled to fly into space on the Russian Soyuz spacecraft in October of that year with the mission Soyuz TMA-1. However, his sponsorship funds failed to materialize.

In October of 2004 during World Space Week, Bass was formally inducted as a member of the National Space Society's Board of Governors. Serving in an advisory and public outreach capacity, Bass has joined astronauts and prominent individuals who have made a lasting, positive impact on human space exploration, including actor Tom Hanks, journalist Hugh Downs and author and futurist Sir Arthur C. Clarke, among many others.[3]

Sexuality

Bass officially announced that he is gay in a front page cover story for People magazine [4] on July 26, 2006. He also confirmed his relationship with male model and former reality show star Reichen Lehmkuhl. There had been considerable speculation about his sexuality due to numerous paparazzi snapshots of him with the openly gay Lehmkuhl. The two had been spotted together in many different locations.[5] Celebrity gossip blogger Perez Hilton had outed Bass beginning in September 2005 with postings on Hilton's website. [6]
