Jessica Biel Reacts To Old Clip Of Her Admitting She's Not A Fan Of *NSYNC

Believe it or not, Jessica Biel was not always Team Timberlake and now we know why after her recent appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.

On Tuesday night (October 22), the actress, 37, took to the late-night show, where the host confronted her with an old clip of her during what looks like her 7th Heaven days, admitting that she's not really a fan of *NSYNC, you know, her husband's pop band. After asked about a fandom, Biel came clean, calling herself "lame."

"Well, not lame, I was just listening to old-school stuff," she clarified to Fallon. "I was listening to theater productions. I was listening to Rent. I knew every word from Rent. I was listening to Motown. I lived under a rock. I wasn't into pop culture music."

At that point, Fallon put her on the spot, playing the vintage clip, where her feelings about the band are crystal clear. "To be honest, I don't really listen [to them]," a young Biel says in the 1999 interview. "I mean, I know of them, of course. And I've heard of them, and I've heard the music. But I don't think I own any of their CDs. I'm not a huge fan," she continues, before ending with a shrug. "But, cool, I guess."

Biel went on to confess that her ignorance of the *NSYNC catalogue is very real, recalling a moment in September when she was with Timberlake and some friends in Italian and they decided to play a game of Truth of Dare. "My dare was I had to sing an *NSYNC song... and I literally couldn't," she recalled. "I only know three words, 'Bye, bye, bye.' Which I guess is just one word three times. But I wasn't allowed to sing that! I had to sing something else. Justin coached me through the chorus, the verse. I was looking at the words. It was humiliating!"
