He started his career as a singer, actor, and dancer on The Mickey Mouse Club (1991–1994) before rising to prominence as a member of the 1990s boy band NSYNC. The band has sold over 70 million records, becoming one of the best-selling boy bands of all time.[1] Chasez released his debut single "Blowin' Me Up (With Her Love)" in 2002, following NSYNC's decision to go on a hiatus earlier that year.
