Lance Bass Says His CW Pilot Was Canceled After He Came Out: “A Career Killer”
Following his 2006 coming out, Lance Bass said The CW pulled the plug on a pilot he was preparing to shoot.
The NSYNC alum explained that he “lost everything” when revealing his sexuality, including a pilot he was preparing to shoot for The CW, which could have been a potential launching pad for his onscreen career following his boy band days. After NSYNC announced an indefinite hiatus in 2002, he turned to acting, but declaring he’s gay in a July 2006 cover story for People proved to have a negative impact on his onscreen career. Since Bass’ 2006 coming out, he’s appeared in such shows as Valley Peaks, Drop Dead Diva, Hand of God and Insatiable, as well as the movie Such Good People (2014).
