Back in the day, the guys in
*NSYNC
used to pal around with
Pink
, but
Joey Fatone
wants to make one thing clear: He never declared his love for her to her dad in hopes of scoring a date.
In a video for
People
called
Defend Yourself,
*NSYNC’s
Joey Fatone
was asked about being “friend-zoned” by Pink years ago, which led him to, as he put it, “set the record straight” about what actually went down between them.
“I didn’t tell or ask her dad that I wanted to take her out and I loved her, if this is what you’re referring to here,” Joey laughs.
“I’m gonna set the record straight…I actually asked her out a few times, and we went out and we were cool as heck but I just, I guess I wasn’t her type,” he adds. “So that was it and we’re still friends. That was it.”
In the same video, Joey’s offered to chance to choose the final member of a dream boy band lineup that would include himself,
Justin Timberlake
,
Nick Carter
and
Jordan Knight
. He’s told he can choose between
Harry Styles
and
Joe Jonas
— and Joey chooses Nick.
