Lance Bass: Colton Underwood Is ‘Monetizing The Experience’ Of Being Gay

Says the guy who got paid good money to do a cover story for People Magazine when he came out.

He’s just angry nobody has given a shit about him for the last 15 years.

Get to the back of the bus Lance!!!

Does Lance even have gay friends? He seems to hang exclusively with D-list Hollywood garbage.

Who cares. Really. So is everyone on OnlyFans and TikTok or whatever the hell the kids are up to. He hurts nothing. I think playing it straight to make money is less commendable.

Gurl, I would’ve never used a stagename of a fish.

Lance is right. At this point in Colton's life, gay is a process, not a Netflix special.

R5 So what? How is this different from half of the other celebrities who profit off their sexuality or sexual image? Unlike Lance, I support gay men coming out and if they can profit off of it, more power to them. Straight people do it all the time.

Lance is just jealous nobody will give him a show. He needs to go sit down and go worship Lisa Grannypump.

He's not wrong, but then again, one could argue that he and many others have 'monetized' staying in the closet -- so, which is worse?

Someone needs to call Colton out on pretending that he is just coming to terms with being gay.

I heard he had a boyfriend YEARS ago who he lived with.

I'm sure Lance knows all about monetizing being gay.

They can both suck my dick!

Lance was desperate to do the same thing

He isn’t wrong but so what?

Lance would have monetized losing his cherry, but Joey took that rather clumsily years ago on tour. He was drunk, and there were many tears. Worse for poor Lance when the FatOne passed out on top of him.

Lance is still insanely jealous of Justin and that his own career really never took off. Plus I’m sure Justin got Anvers one of those hot male groupies too.

It’s not necessarily weird for Colton to do a Netflix show about his coming out until you consider the events that led to that which are quite weird. Like, who approached who? Did Colton shop this around? What was the timeline? Was it written into a contract that they would time the interview with his coming out with the announcement of the show? Would he have been penalized had he come out before this date financially? How much is he getting paid? How did Gus get involved? There was probably an NDA on Colton preventing him talking about his own sexuality before Netflix said he could, isn’t that a lot of levels of fucked up?

On the other hand, who cares. He’s just another reality tv star. Maybe one day he’ll be president.

If you look at the Lance Bass interview, either his lower face is now much wider or his neck has shrunk.

Also, the eyes now look disillusioned, instead of vacant.

Wasn't N'SYNC the ultimate monetized gayness?

R17 Boy bands all are/were, wotj an assortment of types/appeals including the sketchy jailbait twink crowd - Joey McIntyre of NKOTB was all of 12 when he signed up, Nick Carter was 13, Timbersnake was 14. The new-creepy/sad Aaron Carter was 10 when he started.

More chicken on the counter than KFC.

We all know on DL how you monetize being gay! 🎥

It's a pity Lance couldn't get a PPV deal for every time he had to blow Lou Perlman.

r2 his credits extend beyond what imdb, wiki, etc show... but perhaps another lance bass or some gave a lance bass producer credit for a risque jailbait eurotrash short from money being thrown at it, grants, scholarships being paid out of a trust. in the u.s he's just a safe flamboyant gay looking like he has a permanent case of the mumps they can drag out when they need 'diversity' but it otherwise seems like he doesn't do much, too often. so, where exactly is the money coming from. how many performers, celebrities u.s. cv appear quite different from their work in other locations. they rarely put down their endorsements, commercial work, especially those overseas. it's a wonder.

R13 aww don’t say that lmao. the Joey Fatone of JoLa fantasy is a considerate lover.

R20 doesn’t the legend say that JC was the one taking most or all of the damage for Team *NSYNC? That’s why he’s...like he is.

Why does Lance have to be such a bitch? He can't be happy for Colton.

R23 That guy swallowed a lot of fat old guy spunk in his day.

Colton rose to fame pretending to be a straight virgin. Now he’s cashing in pretending to be a gay virgin. I think it’s perfectly appropriate to call him out as a big phony. I also think whatever good will he might have earned “coming out” as an act of self-liberation or a role model to others is tarnished by his immediately announcing a tv series.

R25 my heart goes out to JC. So much talent, so much beauty, so much sweetness and such a good kind heroic nature just used and hung out to dry.

Hope Lance, Jussy and the others know just how much JC gave up and went through to protect them and give them a shot.

Does he have an OnlyFans yet?

Why, I had a crucial cameo in Joey Jay’s loser video on RPDR Reunion show!

JC was always my favorite from NSync.

I liked the Fatone. Totally my type

Says the guy who probably tried to finagle a reality series when he dated famewhore, Reichen. People come out all the time. I can appreciate it was difficult for Colton coming from an environment that’s toxically masculine as well as toxically *Christian*. That being said, is he the best role model given his recent legal history? That shouldn’t be glossed over in an effort to put some polish on his coming out story, particularly when you know he’ll turn into a vapid Weho Instaho, white-partying it up with all the other vapid Weho Instahoes. Who just happen to be all white.

R32.

Everybody knew he was gay when they heard the name "Colton".

Somebody is mad that Gus got her job. You know he’d love to do that job. Especially since he’s got some sort of arrangement with Netflix (he’s sort of on The Circle this season).

Lance hasn’t been the same since he got fucked by Andy Cohen.

R27 I never, ever thought Chasez was attractive, but he was always the best vocalist in the group,and could sing rings around Timberlake.

People would rather pay to see Colton's journey than ugly-ass Lance.

r23 JC aged well.

I thought there was a movement to launch this guy into outer space so we would never have to hear of him again, what happened to that?

There's nothing an old bottom hates more than a younger, more attractive bottom.

R41 You forgot tighter.

She looks great in the unfiltered pics. Better than in those pics where she applies her alien filters, which make her look like she’s had horrible work done.

She’s bitter and leading the Netflix boycott, isn’t she?

Pot, meet Kettle.

People make fun of African American ghetto names, well I give you “Colton.”

R42 Poor Lance was left loose and baggy after all those years of taking that thick Fatone sausage.

This was posted by Colton to his stories.

Says the former boy bander currently in a cheesy Geico Insurance commercial.

Lance has never gotten over the non-renewal of the television masterpiece "Finding Prince Whore"

Lance has a very hot husband (irrelevant but YUM) and he's not wrong. It's fucking gross to come out and the first thing you did is launch a reality show.

“Some people got it and make it pay, some can’t even give it away”

[quote]Lance has a very hot husband (irrelevant but YUM) and he's not wrong. It's fucking gross to come out and the first thing you did is launch a reality show.

He got his start on a reality show. Attention becomes a drug to these people. They are always looking at ways to get more.

And Lance has no room to talk, appearing on Lisa Vanderpump's shitty "reality" show Overserved.

R52 Well deez person got it and deez persons spread it round!

I see nothing wrong. If he's coming out he might as well do it in style!

Colton says that he probably owns between 150 to 200 pairs of sneakers.

Has he fallen off the planet? I hope so.

Has his ex Reichen weighed in?

I love Lance. He's a gay from my generation and I had a crush on him before he was out. I thought he was the cutest of the group and I heard he is a power top. Anyhow, Lance monetizes on the gay experience all day long. He owns part of Rocco's which is a huge gay bar/restaurant in WeHo and he also bought Rage, which he is turning into the biggest gay dance club in the US. I get it. While we are still young, gorgeous, and barely a day over 25, nothing is as hot as young, fresh meat. Always has been, always will be...sadly.

This makes Lance look really bad. It makes me not like him anymore. Why does he have to be so divisive and tear people down? What a petty bitch.

Lance is a huge hypocrite. Back in the day, he was THE gay monetizing being gay, first with a People cover and then dating reality whore Reichen and trying to monetize that into a series or a business. Then he went into business with Jax Taylor from Vanderpump Rules because he can’t stay away from reality whores.

So why isn’t he on top of Colton since he loves reality whores so much? You would think he would be the first to cozy up to him and try to do business with him. Did Colton reject him and that’s why he’s lashing out now?

[quote] “When you first come out, most people ... have no clue about the LGBT community,” he said. “They don’t know what the issues are, they have no idea because they’ve been so separated from that on purpose. So when someone comes out as a public figure, so many people immediately go to: ‘Screw that! It’s too late.’ They don’t like to support it because they don’t feel like you know what you’re talking about yet.”

What the fuck is this eldergay talking about? People have the internet now. They know what the gay community is. They know what their issues are about.

....

Yes Lance is like the one at the bar every weekend for years who everyone had their turn with and some hot new guy shows up that just came out of the closet.

Pretty sure it was fat old guy slurping up young boy spunk which explains how he got away with it for so long.

Lance is probably most irritated that Gus and not he got the role of Sherpa. The degree to which this kind of slumming it undercuts Gus’s cultural cache will be a lesson for him.

Lance needs to STFU, seriously.

We know Gus showed Colton how to properly suck dick.

Gus must be hard up for cash - I would have thought he had sponships galore, especially after his very media savvy coming out. I'm sure it will be very tastefully done :)

Lance is just jealous white gay.

R67 Please, Colty been suckin' the D since he was 15 and working to get that XY layout.

Most of DL would not understand what it feels like when a devastatingly handsome man no longer turns every single head when walking into a room and realizing the aging process is on the horizon in the next 10, 15 years.

And why would Lance Bass of all people understand that? When has this troll ever been handsome?

Remember when Lance said in his coming out interview that people didn’t realize he was gay because he was a SAG and not a FAG? SAG stands for Straight Acting Gay.

Lance Bass was L.A. plain at best.
