O-TOWN N-RAGED!

Jacob from O-Town puts down his handbag to tell NME.COM that Lance Bass has a big mouth, basically...

O-TOWN
have issued a threat to *N
SYNC[/url], telling NME.COM that the boyband should
be "pretty worried about shooting off their mouths".

In an interview with NME.COM, Jacob from O-Town[/url]
blasts *NSYNC's Lance Bass for comments he made about O-Town[/url].
"I think it's really bold of him to open his mouth and start shooting off about
us because he knows where we came from and we're working with the same people that
put *N
Sync[/url] together," he fumes. "I'm kinda worried that we might let
out some secrets 'cos we've found out some stuff about how real or not real they
are. I'd be pretty worried if I was him if he wants to keep shooting off his
mouth."

"I think he was a lot safer when he was commenting on the people we were working
with," Erik continues, "but he made a big mistake when he
commented on us as a band. We're going to do things that are going to surprise a lot
of people. I feel really bad when people have to eat their words."

Dan from the band adds: "I think we have just as many qualities
as *N
Sync[/url], though we're not as big as them. They were put together
and they didn't really have a reason to be put together; we did because we had a TV
show. I think it's a double-standard for him to say anything."
