Lance Bass: I once married a girlfriend in Vegas
NEW YORK (AP) — Lance Bass, who is openly gay, says he once married a girlfriend in Las Vegas.
People do stupid things in the heat of the moment, the 28-year-old singer told E! News in an article published Tuesday on its Web site. I’ve been in Vegas where I’ve gotten married for like five minutes, but no one talks about it, though.
Bass, who was part of the boy band ‘N Sync, says he got hitched in 1999 or 2000, and the bride was just a friend.
In fact, the only reason we did it is because we wanted to get free drinks all night … and we didn’t get one, he says. We’re like, ‘we just got married,’ and they’re like, ‘ah, whatever.’
Bass, who has been promoting his new memoir, Out of Sync, can now be seen on Broadway in the long-running musical Hairspray. He stepped into the role of TV dance show host Corny Collins in August.
Bass announced in July 2006 that he is gay. He has said that he didn’t reveal this earlier because he didn’t want to affect ‘N Sync’s popularity. Watch Bass talk about how he told his mother E-mail to a friend

OK, has anyone else noticed that if you flip the ‘b’ in ‘lance bass’ around on it’s vertical axis, you get ‘lanced ass’ ?? Can this possibly be just coincience??
