00:00 Britney Spears is gushing over Lance Bass' twins.
00:04 The pop star took to Twitter on Monday to reveal that she met the NSYNC singer's one-year-old
00:09 daughter and son.
00:10 "I'm a new auntie for Lance's babies.
00:12 They are absolutely gorgeous babies," she wrote.
00:16 Brit posed with Violet Betty Alexander-James, their dad, and her husband Sam Asghari in
00:21 sweet never-before-seen photos from the moment, but didn't specify when they were taken
00:27 or if it was the first time she met them.
00:30 The longtime friends have been pals since the '90s, when they toured together and rose
00:34 to fame as musical icons.
00:37 Lance welcomed his little ones via surrogate with his husband Michael Turchin in October
00:41 2021.
00:43 Just ahead of their birth, Access Hollywood spoke to the 44-year-old about their impending
00:47 arrival.
00:48 "I mean, yes, I am definitely excited.
00:53 The kids are on the way.
00:54 We've been working a few years to bring babies into this world, and it's been a very long
01:01 struggle for sure.
01:03 But we are so excited that they are on their way.
01:06 We're, I mean, we're very close.
01:08 I mean, it could be weeks away that they come.
01:11 But we're as prepared as we can be.
01:13 We're in the middle of construction right now, and during a pandemic, that's not the
01:16 easiest thing.
01:17 So hopefully they don't come too early, or we will not have a bedroom for them."
01:21 "Well, you'll be holding them the whole time, right?
01:25 That's probably what the first few months are going to be."
01:27 "Exactly.
01:28 I mean, it's true.
01:29 Trust me, I've read every book now, so I know exactly how to, you know, help stop a baby
01:34 from crying.
01:35 Colicky babies, I'm good.
01:36 Give me a colicky baby, I think I'm good to go right now."
01:39 "You're ready to go.
01:40 You've read it all.
01:41 Well, I'm so excited for you and Michael, for your twins.
01:43 That is such a big moment in your lives, especially as you were saying, and I was watching some
01:48 of your other interviews that you've done recently, it's been such a process for you
01:52 two to get to this point.
01:53 I think that I saw you had nine egg donors, one of your surrogates miscarried.
01:59 I'm sure your emotions were all over the place during all of that.
02:02 How did you really find strength in yourselves and in each other to keep this process going
02:07 and start your family?"
02:08 "You know, we have a great village around us.
02:11 Our family, our friends, they were with us every step of the way, and we were very open
02:16 about this process because we wanted people that were just observing our struggles to
02:24 relate to us.
02:25 Because so many couples out there and people wanting to have kids, they go through the
02:28 same thing and they feel alone a lot of the time.
02:30 So we wanted to show you that we're going through it too, we're there.
02:35 And I think just in the last few years, it's not as taboo to talk about IVF and your struggles
02:41 with having kids."
02:43 "And it's amazing that you are using your platform to be able to share your perspective
02:47 and your message on that.
02:49 Have you had any tips, tricks, or advice from your fellow NSYNC band members who are also
02:54 fathers?
02:55 Or who's giving you the best advice so far?"
02:57 "I mean, everyone is very scared to give advice, you know, because they're like, 'Look,
03:03 whatever I say, you're not going to listen to anyway,' which is kind of true.
03:07 But the number one thing I heard from all the guys and everyone is sleep, sleep, sleep.
03:12 Whenever you can sleep, just try it.
03:15 Because the first six months, you're just going to be so tired."
03:19 "And last question for you with Paradise.
03:22 Any little secrets or romances you think that are really going to take off in this season
03:26 that you can give us a little hint about?"
03:28 "Well, I have, I know, I'm very hopeful for some of these couples.
03:32 You know, I see Going to the End, Abigail and Noah.
03:36 I would love to see Marissa and Riley, and I'd love to see Joe and Serena P. I think
03:40 those are my three top couples right now."
03:42 "Oh, you're shipping Riley and Marissa.
03:43 Okay, we heard it from you.
03:44 Going to the End.
03:45 Thank you so much, Lance.
03:46 We appreciate your time."
03:47 "All right.
03:48 Thank you so much."
03:49 "Good luck with the twins."
03:50 "Thank you."
