NSYNCÂ went into their blockbuster 2000Â album,Â
No Strings Attached, with a sense of trepidation.Â
In an interview withÂ
Us Weekly, Lance reveals that at the time of the album's release, the band was embroiled in a legal battle with late record producer and managerÂ
Lou Pearlman, who was later the subject of the 2019 documentaryÂ
The Boy Band Con: The Lou Pearlman Story, focusing on the creation of his Ponzi scheme that defrauded investors out of more than $1 billion.Â
Lance says the release ofÂ
No Strings Attached came at a "crazy time" in the group's life as they were trying to part ways with Pearlman while capitalizing on the success of their RIAA Diamond-certified debut album.Â
