Lou Pearlman, the ever sketchy producer of 'NSYNC and Backstreet Boys, has died in prison, according to US Weekly. He was 62 years old. Pearlman was in prison after scamming half a billion dollars out of investors and was sentenced to twenty-five years behind bars about eight years ago. There had also been chatter that he had molested and harassed several of his proteges. 


His passing should come as a minor shock as it was reported that he had suffered a stroke six years prior to his death causing him to reevaluate his lifestyle and go on to lose nearly 100 pounds. Former 'NSYNC member, Lance Bass, had this to say upon hearing the news: "Word is that #LouPearlman has passed away. He might not have been a stand-up businessman, but I wouldn't be doing what I love today w/out his influence. RIP Lou." Pearlman was also involved in the careers of LFO and O-Town, whom has seen a resurgence since their time on "Making the Band," an MTV show that Pearlman also assisted with. More news, if there is any, as it comes in.

She continued to pursue her passion, have three kids, develop a wildly successful podcast, and work on clothing and accessories.  But, when you are in the public eye, boasting 541K followers on Instagram , almost everything you do is up for scrutiny. Fans (and haters) began to notice a lack of presence when it came to her husband, Corey and questioned if their marriage was okay. There is an abundance of photos of daughters, Skylar and

'The Real L Word' Cast- Where Are They Now?

  photo courtesy of amazon.com With the return of the hit Showtime series, 'The L Word,' it makes fans of the original show and ultimate reality spinoff, 'The Real L Word,' quite nostalgic. Actors can keep acting but reality stars can drift off into the clouds after their 15 minutes of fame are over. TRLW lasted three seasons with a revolving door of lesbians who soon became like friends and family. Initially based in California, the show followed the lives of a handful of gay women, somehow intertwined in life, and what it was like to date, fall in love, have sex, try to make babies, propose, be successful, and so much more. By the final season, the series went bi-coastal, utilizing NYC as a playground, as well. The show ended in 2012 with two weddings and a lot of tears. So, where are they now?
