MTV Video Music Awards

JC Chasez y Lance Bass de *NSYNC están bromeando con la posibilidad de que los fans vean más del grupo ¡y parece que no debemos descartar nada todavía!

Nos encontramos con JC en LAX, donde nos dijo lo divertido que fue volver al estudio para grabar "Better Place", la canción que aparece en la próxima película, "Trolls Band Together" especialmente después de 2 décadas desde su último trabajo de estudio.

Las fuentes nos dicen que la canción sería la única con todos los compañeros de banda, pero no podíamos dejar pasar la oportunidad de preguntar a JC sus sentimientos acerca de *NSYNC, sobre todo porque su reunión ha atraído tanta atención.

Se hizo el tímido, diciéndonos que sólo está centrado en el single por ahora, pero no aplastó completamente las esperanzas de los fans, e incluso dijo, "todo es posible".

Lance también estaba en LAX, separado de JC, y cuando le preguntamos lo mismo tuvo una respuesta interesante, poniendo el foco en la huelga de guionistas y actores en curso.

Dijo que si la gente quiere ver al grupo reunido de nuevo para una gira o un álbum completo, será mejor que empiecen a apoyar la huelga.

Ahora bien, esto podría ser una de dos cosas: podría estar utilizando su plataforma para llamar la atención sobre los miles de trabajadores sindicalizados que se han quedado sin trabajo, o es posible que la banda ya esté en conversaciones para otra reunión. Las huelgas podrían ser una clave de lo que quieren hacer a continuación.

Sólo son ideas para reflexionar. 🤔

Como sabes, la icónica reunión de la banda en los MTV VMAs tuvo a la gente en shock, incluyendo a Taylor Swift, que aceptó un premio de ellos al principio de la noche.

Verlos en el estudio es una gran señal, y al menos JC y Lance están diciendo que hay una oportunidad para que hagan más.

*NSYNC's JC Chasez and Lance Bass are teasing the potential for fans to see more of the group ... and it sounds like we shouldn't rule out anything just yet!

We got JC at LAX, where he told us how fun it was to get back in the studio to record "Better Place," the song featured in the upcoming film, "Trolls Band Together" ... especially coming 2 decades after their last studio effort.

Now, sources have told us the track would be a one-off for the fellas -- but we couldn't pass up the chance to ask JC his feelings about *NSYNC doing more ... especially because their reunion's drawn so much attention.

He played it coy ... telling us he's just focused on the single for now, but he didn't completely crush the hopes of fans, and even said, "anything is possible."

Lance was also at LAX, separate from JC, and when we asked him the same thing, he had an interesting response -- putting the focus on the ongoing writers' and actors' strike.

He said if people wanna see the group reunite again -- for a tour or a full album -- they better start supporting the strike.

Now, this could be one of 2 things -- he could just be using his platform to shine a light on the thousands of union workers out of jobs. Or ... it's possible the gang is already in talks for another fun reunion, but the strikes might be throwing a wrench in whatever they want to do next.

Just some food for thought. 🤔

As you know, the band's iconic reunion at the MTV VMAs had people in shock, including Taylor Swift, who accepted an award from them early in the night.

Seeing them in the studio is a great sign, too ... and, at the very least, JC and Lance are saying there's a chance for them to do more.

Karol G estaba destilando diamantes en los VMAs, todo el brillo de su atuendo costaba más de $2 millones, de acuerdo con el joyero que le dio las prendas para la gran noche.

El joyero Eric Mavani le dijo a TMZ que fue contratado para darle todo el bling que necesitaba a la estrella colombiana, que resultó ser MUCHO.

Eric cuenta que la cadena era de unos 90 de quilates, 30 diamantes en forma de pera de color rosa, y 60 diamantes blancos en forma de óvalo. Ese accesorio costaría alrededor de un millón.

Pero eso no es todo... también llevaba un anillo de corazón rosa de 10 quilates valorado en 900.000 dólares y pulseras de 40 quilates que costaban 250.000 dólares cada una. También llevaba unos pendientes de flores azules, blancas y rosas de 10 quilates y 75.000 dólares.

Se dice que el total ascendió a unos 2,5 millones de dólares... y todos esos quilates debieron de ser un amuleto de la suerte, porque se llevó a casa el premio a la mejor colaboración con Shakira.

Karol G was drippin' in diamonds at the VMAs ... all the bling combined was worth north of $2 mil ... according to the jeweler who gave her the goods for her big night.

Celebrity jeweler Eric Mavani tells TMZ ... he was hired to provide Karol with all the bling she needed for Tuesday night's event, which turned out to be A LOT.

Eric The Jeweler says her chain was 90 carats strong -- 30 pink pear-shaped diamonds, and 60 white oval-shaped diamonds. That accessory would set ya back a mil.

But, that's not all ... she also wore a 10-carat pink heart ring worth $900k and 40-carat bracelets costing $250k each. She had on some blue, white, and pink flower drop earrings that are 10 carats and worth $75k.

Were told the grand total was around $2.5M  ... and all those carats must've been a good-luck charm, because she took home the award for Best Collab with Shakira.

*NSYNC fans are already itching for a worldwide tour or new album from the group after their reunion at the VMAs ... but it just ain't gonna happen, TMZ has learned.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... despite the group's iconic reunion Tuesday night, they have no plans to tour, do a residency, album, or any other pop-up reunions.

After the VMAs, we're told bandmates Justin Timberlake, Joey Fatone, JC Chasez, Lance Bass, and Chris Kirkpatrick -- along with their management team and close friends -- all went to dinner at Ambra in NYC ... which was a group close to 50 people.

Our sources say they all had some amazing conversations and laughs during the dinner, which had a menu with the band's name on it. We're told everyone was glad to be back under the same roof all these years later.

BTW, we've confirmed the rumors the group is featured on a song for the upcoming movie, "Trolls Band Together" ... which focuses on Justin Timberlake's character reuniting with his 4 brothers who were all part of a boy band in the past -- pretty meta.

So there might not be an album, but at least a new song is coming soon!

Tuesday night's appearance was the first time they've all been at the VMAs together since 2013. As we reported, a source connected to the group told us they wouldn't be performing but would only be presenting an award ... which ended up going to Taylor Swift.

Cardi B y Offset no pudieron quitarse las manos de encima en los MTV VMAs, y decidieron grabar un video sexual, (al menos, falso), durante un descanso en el baño del recinto.

La pareja se besuqueó en un baño del evento el martes por la noche. Estaban completamente vestidos, pero fingiendo tener relaciones sexuales con Cardi inclinada y haciendo algunos sonidos salvajes, mientras grababa el momento para la posteridad.

Entre medio de sus quejidos, se escucha como si un amigo fuera del baño estuviera buscando un cargador de teléfono. ¡Cardi le dice a la mujer que entre a buscar el suyo! Offset era todo sonrisas mientras todo ocurría. Muy diferente de su amiga, quien entró de mala gana a la habitación y provocó risas en Cardi.

Si te estás preguntando qué los puso así.. No es que necesiten un motivo exactamente, pero vale la pena señalar que Cardi estaba usando el mismo atuendo que utilizó para su actuación de "Bongos" con Megan Thee Stallion. Podemos decir con seguridad, que Offset estaba hechizado con su atuendo también.

Por supuesto, hemos visto a la pareja ponerse cachonda antes. A finales de julio, vimos a Cardi perreando sobre él en Las Vegas, mientras disfrutaban de la piscina. Ella publicó el video el mismo día en que fue nombrada sospechosa en el caso del lanzamiento de un micrófono en uno de sus conciertos.

Por cierto, Cardi B era candidata a Mejor Hip Hop en los VMA por "Tomorrow 2", la colaboración que realizaron junto a GloRilla. Pero no ganaron.

Cardi B and Offset couldn't keep their hands off of each other at the MTV VMAs, and decided to make a sex tape -- a fake one, anyway -- during a bathroom break at the venue.

The couple got their bump n' grind on in a restroom at Tuesday night's event -- they were fully clothed, but pretending to have sex with Cardi bent over and making some pretty wild sounds ... as she recorded the moment for posterity.

Sounds like a friend outside the bathroom was looking for a phone charger, and through her moans ... Cardi tells the woman to come in and get hers! Offset was all smiles during the funny moment, while their pal reluctantly walked into the room, making Cardi laugh.

If you're wondering what got them in the mood -- they don't exactly need one, but it's worth noting Cardi was in the outfit she wore for her performance of "Bongos" with Megan Thee Stallion. Safe to assume ... Offset was feeling her 'fit!

Of course, we've seen the couple get nasty before -- she was twerking on him in Vegas at the end of July while enjoying their pool, and she posted that clip the same day she was named a suspect in the now-dropped microphone-throwing case.

BTW, Cardi was up for Best Hip Hop at the VMAs for "Tomorrow 2," her collab with GloRilla, but they didn't win.

We're sure she was feelin' like a winner in the bathroom, though!

With all of the big stars -- Taylor, Nicki, Selena and more -- do you think the MTV VMAs have gained credibility again? Vote below.

Taylor Swift didn't just take home some VMAs hardware, she also won the internet thanks to several viral moments during the night -- from feelin' the groove to destroying expensive bling.

The "Anti-Hero" singer's face was all over social media Tuesday as the ceremony went down in New Jersey ... with her dance moves as one of the leading highlights.

Taylor was on her feet during Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion's "Bongos" performance -- at one point blocking Ice Spice's view of the show, but Taylor was feelin' it. She was also moving her body to Lil Wayne's "A Milli" ... even rapping along!

TS had a funny moment pick up steam, too -- showing her appear to struggle to get a drink out of her seat's cupholder. Unclear if the problem was her, the booze, or the holder itself.

Taylor Swift made sure to provide a little heartbreak too though, apparently breaking a $12k ring she wore to the show.

As you know, Taylor took home 9 awards at the VMAs, including Show of the Summer, Video of the Year, and Artist of the Year.

If there was a Viral Artist of the Night category, she totally would've dominated that one, too.

The real fun at the MTV VMAs started when the show was over ... as celebs like Cardi B, Taylor Swift, and many more hit up after-parties to keep the big night going.

It was poppin' at several post-VMA bashes Tuesday night -- a couple big ones in NYC, while the main ceremony went down in New Jersey.

Looks like the stars were divided in the Big Apple -- folks like Taylor, Selena Gomez, Cara Delevingne, Diddy and Ice Spice hit up the MTV party at The Ned NoMad Hotel, while other big names like Lil Nas X, Tiffany Haddish, and French Montana went to Cardi B's party at Somewhere Nowhere.

Of course, Cardi and Offset showed up together to their shindig -- the couple walked inside hand in hand looking like the king and queen of the prom.

Both spots were swarming with celebs ... other artists like Sabrina Carpenter, Saweetie, GloRilla, and Swae Lee were spotted having a blast, too.

The artists had plenty to celebrate after some big VMA wins -- Ice Spice took home the award for Best New Artist, the show's emcee, Nicki Minaj, won Best Hip-Hop for "Super Freaky Girl," Stray Kids secured a W for Best K-Pop, and SZA got a Moonperson statuette for Best R&B.

Taylor Swift certainly came out of the event victorious ... collecting 9 wins overall, including Video of the Year, Artist of the Year, Song of the Year, and Show of the Summer.

In other words, a great year for Swifties.

Selena Gomez is getting the internet meme treatment after her disapproving reaction to Chris Brown at the VMAs, but she quickly clapped back once the award show was over.

In case ya missed it, Selena was on camera Tuesday night while the nominees for Best R&B were read out, and the now-viral moment went down as Chris' name was announced.

Check it out ... she scrunches her face and stops clapping as his collab with Chloe Bailey, "How Does It Feel," was announced. Her smile returned and her clapping continued after they moved on to the next nom, however.

The singer jumped on Instagram after the festivities -- and more importantly, after the clip made the rounds ... vowing to "never be a meme again," adding she'd rather have no reaction at all than show off her genuine feelings.

As you know, Chris infamously assaulted his ex-girlfriend, Rihanna, back in 2009, and has been accused repeatedly of assaulting women over the years ... so that's more than likely why she made that face in the audience.

What's interesting is ... Selena's not denying her reaction, but it's more about her being pissed about the whole meme thing -- which btw, also included shots of her just looking bored during the award show.

Selena also made the rounds last night for covering her ears during Olivia Rodrigo's performance at the VMAs, but that seemed to be a reaction to the staged act gone wrong ... as onstage explosions drowned out Olivia's vocals.

Don't forget, Selena and Rema took home the Best Afrobeats award at the ceremony for "Calm Down" ... and she thanked her collaborator for believing in her and letting her be a part of the track.

Fittingly, that song title is basically Selena's reaction to all the memes.

Do you think Selena Gomez's viral reaction was actually shade? Vote below.

Selena Gomez está convirtiéndose en un meme por todo Internet, luego de su reacción de desaprobación hacia Chris Brown en los VMAs. Sin embargo, decidió responder rápidamente una vez que el show de premios se acabara.

En caso de que te lo hayas perdido, Selena estaba en cámara el martes por la noche mientras se presentaban los nominados a Mejor R&B... y el momento que se convirtió en viral fue cuando se anunció el nombre de Chris.

Echa un vistazo. Se la puede ver frunciendo el ceño y dejando de aplaudir cuando su colaboración con Chloe Bailey, "How Does It Feel", fue anunciada. Sin embargo, volvió a sonreír y a aplaudir cuando pasaron al siguiente nominado.

La cantante corrió a Instagram después de la celebración, y lo más importante, después de que el clip se hiciera viral, prometiendo que "no volverá a ser un meme", añadiendo que prefiere no tener ninguna reacción en absoluto que mostrar sus sentimientos genuinos.

Como ustedes saben, Chris infamemente atacó a su ex novia, Rihanna, en 2009, y ha sido acusado en repetidas ocasiones de agredir a las mujeres en los últimos años. Así que, probablemente, eso fue lo que la hizo poner esa cara durante el show.

Lo que es interesante es que Selena no está negando su reacción, sino que más bien está enojado por todo este asunto del meme, que, por cierto, también incluyó fotos de ella luciendo aburrida durante la entrega de los premios.

Selena también estuvo en boca de todos anoche por taparse los oídos durante la actuación de Olivia Rodrigo en los VMAs. Pero esta parece haber sido una reacción normal a la puesta en escena, que tuvo explosiones en el escenario que ahogaron la voz de Olivia.

No hay que olvidar que Selena y Rema se llevaron a casa el premio al Mejor Afrobeats en la ceremonia por "Calm Down", y que también dio las gracias a su colaborador por creer en ella y dejarla participar en este tema.

In a moment sure to thrill 90's kids everywhere, Justin Timberlake, Chris Kirkpatrick, Lance Bass, Joey Fatone and JC Chasez reunited on the VMAs stage for the first time in a decade ... much to Taylor Swift's delight.

Fans went nuts as the 5 members of *NSYNC all got together Tuesday to present the award for best pop video. Nicki Minaj introduced them as they walked out to "Bye Bye Bye," the song behind their first VMA win back in the day.

Taylor was going full fangirl as the fellas took the stage, and then she ended up winning for her hit song, "Anti-Hero."

Lance even gave Taylor a friendship bracelet as she hugged every band member on stage ... and she used part of her acceptance speech to gush over *NSYNC.

It's the first time the guys have been together at the MTV VMAs since way back in 2013 ... and the first time they've all been together for a public appearance since a stop on Ellen a few years back.

Of course, the timing makes a lot of sense, as the guys are rolling out a single for the upcoming 'Trolls' movie ... talk about some good promotion.

Unfortunately, no performance from the guys ... but you gotta imagine the warm reception makes the thought of a reunion tour that much more enticing.

Yes, even for JT.

Justin Timberlake and Megan Thee Stallion appeared to get into a verbal sparring match backstage at MTV's VMAs Tuesday night ... but they didn't, according to witnesses and the 2 people at the center.

In video surfaced from backstage, the rapper, who performed her new song "Bongos" with Cardi B at the event, was super animated with the "Mirrors" hitmaker, pointing at him as she said something. Lots of folks on social jumped to the conclusion they were beefing.

Megan put that to rest with a video, captioned, "I just talk with my hands lol 💁🏽‍♀️see ya next time @Justin Timberlake" The video is scored with kumbaya music.

An eyewitness told Variety, Justin greeted Megan, telling her it was nice to meet her, and Meg gave a "very cute" response, saying, "No, no this don’t count, this don’t count. We gotta meet proper."

Another witness reportedly said Megan "loves Justin" and was excited to meet him for the first time.

Justin's *NSYNC bandmate, Joey Fatone, smiles during the whole exchange, so yeah, no beef.

*NSYNC's reunion was the big story of the night, with a reunion where they awarded Taylor Swift the Best Pop Video award. Taylor was overcome with emotion when she joined the group on stage.

The 2023 VMAs were all about Taylor Swift, her famous Swifties and, of course, *NSYNC ... and they showed out behind the scenes.

The Prudential Center in Newark, NJ was the center of the music world Tuesday night, with Taylor and a boy band reunion leading the way for MTV's signature award ceremony.

Taylor went nuts for Justin Timberlake, Lance Bass, Joey Fatone, JC Chasez and Chris Kirkpatrick ... and she hung out with Ice Spice and Billy Porter too.

While Taylor was busy taking home awards for her amazing music videos, there was plenty of eye candy off camera ... with Cardi B, Selena Gomez, Bebe Rexha, Emily Ratajkowski and Sexyy Redd all commanding eyes.

Lil Nas X screamed out for attention too ... and there were even some hot celeb couples, like Kelsea Ballerini and Chase Stokes.

Algunos de los nombres más importantes de la música han comenzado a llegar a los MTV VMAs de este año, y tenemos todas las llegadas de la alfombra rosa.

El Prudential Center de Newark, Nueva Jersey, se parece más a Hollywood, con grandes estrellas como Megan Thee Stallion desfilando, quien se subirá al escenario junto a Cardi B más tarde para interpretar su nuevo éxito, "Bongos".

Saweetie estaba muy guapa de rosa cuando entró en el estadio, y hasta la icónica mascota de MTV incluso llegó a la fiesta con un elegante corbatín.

Como ya saben, artistas como Miley Cyrus, Olivia Rodrigo, Taylor Swift y Sam Smith competirán esta noche por la codiciada estatuilla Moonperson en varias categorías.

Este año, las mujeres dominan los VMA: las nominaciones a Artista del Año han recaído solo en cantantes, como Beyoncé y Shakira, mientras que Ed Sheeran es el único hombre que opta al premio al Mejor Pop y se enfrenta a artistas como Pink y Dua Lipa.

Por cierto, este año hay 16 canciones nominadas en la categoría de Canción del Verano, y tres de ellas pertenecen a la película "Barbie".

Como ya informamos, *NSYNC se reunió nuevamente para la entrega de premios de esta noche. Tres miembros han sido vistos en Nueva York en los últimos días, y JC Chasez fue fotografiado en un jet privado.

Una fuente conectada con el grupo nos dijo que los chicos solo van a presentar, y no a cantar uno de sus éxitos. De cualquier manera, va a ser una reunión épica.

Hablando de actuaciones, se espera que el estadio retumbe con las presentaciones de Doja Cat, Nicki Minaj -la también maestra de ceremonias de este año- y Måneskin, por no hablar de un montón de otras actuaciones musicales a medida que avance la noche.

También está previsto un gran popurrí en homenaje a los 50 años del hip-hop, similar a la gran actuación de los Grammy, en donde participaron D.M.C., Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five, LL Cool J y muchos más.

Some of the biggest names in music have started to trickle in for this year's MTV VMAs, and we've got all the arrivals from the pink carpet.

The Prudential Center in Newark, NJ looks more like Hollywood -- with massive stars pulling up like Megan Thee Stallion, who's set to take the stage with Cardi B later in the night to perform their brand-new hit, "Bongos."

Saweetie was lookin' pretty in pink while stepping into the stadium, and MTV's iconic Moon-person mascot even pulled up to the shindig with a snazzy bowtie! Demi Lovato also hit the carpet looking sleek in black.

As you know, artists like Miley Cyrus, Olivia Rodrigo, Taylor Swift, and Sam Smith are all dukin' it out tonight for a coveted Moonperson statue ... with many of them covering multiple categories.

It's been a female-dominated year for the VMAs -- Artist of the Year nominations went to ladies only, like Beyoncé and Shakira, while Ed Sheeran is the only guy gunning for Best Pop ... going up against singers like Pink and Dua Lipa.

BTW, there are 16 tracks up for the Song of Summer category this year, with 3 of them being from the "Barbie" movie -- go figure.

As we reported, *NSYNC is gettin' the boy band back together for a reunion at tonight's award show -- 3 members have been spotted in NYC over the last couple of days, and JC Chasez was pictured riding in a private jet.

A source connected to the group told us they'll be presenting only, and not singing one of their hits ... but it's gonna be an epic reunion nonetheless.

Speaking of performances, the ceiling will likely be blown off tonight with folks like Doja Cat, Nicki Minaj -- also the emcee for this year's event -- and Måneskin ... not to mention loads more musical acts as the night goes on.

There's also slated to be a big medley honoring 50 years of hip-hop -- similar to the huge performance at The Grammys -- featuring D.M.C., Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five, LL Cool J, and more.
