Bass’ Wedding Will Be Filmed For TV Special

Former ‘N Sync star Lance Bass will invite their remaining army of fans to join him as he ties the knot with fiancé Michael Turchin. Their wedding will be part of TV special.

The singer-turned-TV and radio star and his actor and model partner still haven’t set the date for their nuptials, but Bass revealed it will happen before the end of the year.

He told website GayStarNews.com, “We’re filming it for an (U.S. network) E! wedding special. It will probably air around Valentine’s Day (14Feb15), so it has to be before Valentine’s Day I know that.”

The star also said he is very excited to watch his big day on TV. One of the reasons is that he’s been growing up as a closeted gay man in a rather conservative Mississippi. He never could have imagined same sex marriages would ever be allowed, let alone played on small screens.

He said, “Growing up in the South, all you think about is family and who you were going to marry. At that time, of course, I was kidding myself that I was going to marry a girl and I always dreamed of that wedding and starting a family. Never in my lifetime did I think that I’d be able to get married legally.”

“It’s just amazing how fast everything is going right now and I’m just honoured to be able to share my wedding with the world. As a little gay kid growing up in Mississippi, I would have loved to have turned on the television and see that happen and say, ‘Oh my gosh, there’s nothing wrong with me and I can have that’.”
