The popular meme, based on Justin Timberlake‘s pronunciation of the word “me” in *NSYNC’s hit “It’s Gonna Be Me,” pops up every April 30. Lance got in on the fun by stopping by ABC’s Good Morning America Tuesday sporting a Justin-inspired wig.

“It’s a meme world, I guess, these days,” Lance said of the popularity of the “It’s Gonna Be MAY” memes. “When we recorded that song, there was no social media, so we had no idea this would happen. And it’s funny because we never thought of the way Justin pronounced ‘May’ before until this meme started going around, so hey, it fits.”
*NSYNC is top of mind these days ever since the group’s surprise reunion — minus JT — during Ariana Grande‘s set at Coachella.
