HOBOKEN, NJ — Boy band members Lance Bass and Joey Fatone were NSync with Hoboken on Saturday night when they posted videos of themselves dancing on the city's central waterfront, across from the Manhattan skyline.
"Are we moving to Hoboken?" Bass asked in his video.
The dancing didn't appear to be part of an organized filming, so are the stars really moving to the mile-square city?
Mayor Emily Jabbour certainly hopes so. She responded, "YES! Hoboken is the best place on the planet."
Actually...
The pair have been collaborating on various projects recently, including an NSync sing-along after a Broadway performance of "&Juliet." But they were in Hoboken for a specific reason.
The pair had dinner at Sushi By Bou in the W Hotel, an omikase experience in which a chef prepares and doles out sushi as patrons enjoy cocktails.
According to a post from the restaurant late on Monday, the duo are filming E! Cocktail Wars, a mixology contest.
The restaurant posted, "You’re all we ever wanted, and welcome back anytime."
