Boy Bands to Men

BOY BANDS TO MEN

Older, wiser and freed from the tyranny of matching outfits, alumni of the 1990s' boy-band fad are on to new projects. Here's a grownup's guide:

JUSTIN JEFFRE

98 Degrees

New gig: He's up for mayor of Cincinnati, Ohio. Don't laugh. The city is home to statesman Jerry Springer.

JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE

'N SYNC

New gig: He'll play a reporter in the film Edison--when not out with honey Cameron Diaz dodging reporters.

LANCE BASS

'N SYNC

New gig: Aiming higher than in his crooning days, he's a trained cosmonaut and wants to visit the moon.

KEVIN RICHARDSON

Backstreet Boys

New gig: He has been on Broadway but is going back to the boy, er, man band for a reunion tour.
