The former boy bander told Ryan Seacrest on Monday that Timberlake recently called him, and “said, ‘Hey man, listen. I’m getting this award and they have given me a pile of time to perform and we started our careers at MTV and I think we should get the band back together.’”
“It really was about him and all that he’s accomplished, but he wanted to acknowledge that part of his career, so we all decided to do it,” explained Chasez.

As for the news leaking out in the days leading up to the event, the singer recalls, “When J called me he’s like, ‘Listen, man, lets really make it a treat and let’s not tell anybody.’”
“I don’t know if there are cameras in the ceiling of wherever but it was unbelievable,” continues Chasez. ”We were in rehearsal and Lance [Bass] walked in and said, ‘Well everybody knows now’… and we were like, ‘How in the world did these people figure this out?!’”
