A new documentary series will explore the dark side of the 1990s boy band boom.
*NSYNC member Joey Fatone is among the executive producers of “Boy Band Confidential,” which premieres tonight, April 13 on Investigation Discovery (ID).
Per an ID press release, the series explores “how the industry transformed young performers into marketable commodities while exposing untold stories of abuse, addiction and financial manipulation” through “raw, unfiltered interviews with some of the biggest names in pop.”
“Being in a boy band was one of the greatest experiences of my life but it also came with challenges we didn’t always understand at the time,” Fatone said, in the same release. “This project gave all of us a chance to reflect, to be honest, and to share what really happened behind the spotlight.”
