Why Blake Lively Feels Like the ‘Happiest Human Ever’ After Meeting *NSYNC

If there’s one thing Blake Lively is a fan of more than her husband, Ryan Reynolds, it just may be *NSYNC!

In an Instagram Stories post on Tuesday, July 23, the actress, 36, recalled her experience meeting JC Chasez, Lance Bass, Chris Kirkpatrick, and Joey Fatone the previous night at the New York City premiere of Deadpool & Wolverine.

“No one will ever know what this moment meant to me. No. One. Ever. I am living in a simulation. My face knows it. Happiest human ever,” Lively wrote while sharing Bass’ Instagram post recapping the event, which began with a photo of the group with Lively and Reynolds, 47.

Justin Timberlake was absent from the event due to his upcoming European tour.

The It Ends with Us star added a special thank you to Reynolds for “being the most romantic person on the planet and making all of my dreams come true last night via @deadpoolmovie.” She added, “10 year old, and also 36 year old me is sobbing.”

The upcoming film, which opens Friday in theaters, features NSYNC’s beloved 2000 hit “Bye Bye Bye.”

Speaking about the song’s inclusion in the movie, Reynolds wrote in his own Instagram Stories post, “These guys had such a huge hand in making a particular #DeadpoolAndWolverine sequence one of my all-time favourites. Can’t thank them enough for their kindness, talent, and good fellowship. *@justintimberlake not pictured but no less appreciated.”

Bass, 45, hilariously joked that he’s “Still waiting for our call to join the X-Force” in the caption of his Instagram post. X-Force was the doomed team of heroes Reynolds’ character recruited in Deadpool 2.

The witty remark provoked a response from Reynolds, who commented, “Sadly, X-Force perished in action. I think about them every day, though.” Bass then replied, “@vancityreynolds I’ll pour one out for them.”

Lively also chimed in the comment section to further express her gratitude for meeting the group.

“Can confirm (if my face doesn’t) this was the single happiest most complete moment of my life. I’ll shave my hair off and perm it beach blonde. It’s fine. I can scrub in. I’m ready. This just feels right,” she wrote. Bass replied to her comment, “@blakelively I have all the bleach you need! I’m in!”
