The new documentary, Boy Band Confidential, premiering on ID on April 13 and 14, features interviews with Lance Bass, AJ McLean, Nick Lachey, and Boyz II Men’s Wanya Morris and Shawn Stockman, among others.
Joey Fatone of ’NSYNC is offering fans a candid look into the darker side of being a young artist during the peak of the 90s boy band phenomenon in the new documentary special, Boy Band Confidential.
“Being in a boy band was one of the greatest experiences of my life, but it also came with challenges we didn’t always understand at the time,” Fatone stated in a press release. “This project gave all of us a chance to reflect, to be honest, and to share what really happened behind the spotlight.”
Premiering over two nights on ID, the four-part project features interviews with his fellow ’NSYNC member Lance Bass, Backstreet Boys’ AJ McLean, Nick Lachey of 98 Degrees, and Boyz II Men’s Wanya Morris and Shawn Stockman, alongside other singers, managers, and industry insiders.

“I was sitting on the 38th-floor balcony of my New York apartment, and I just thought about jumping off,” O-Town’s Ashley Parker Angel reveals in the documentary series' first trailer.
The series aims to unveil the dark underbelly of the music industry during that era, shedding light on the systemic exploitation of young singers and “exposing untold stories of abuse, addiction, and financial manipulation,” according to a press release.
Beyond nostalgia, the project offers “an honest, unfiltered look at a cultural phenomenon that shaped an entire generation,” stated ID President Jason Sarlanis. “We’re illuminating the pressures, vulnerabilities, and surprising realities of life at the height of pop stardom with a level of access rarely achieved in music documentaries.”
