Um, no.  Not quite.
 
NKOTB were never managed by the same guy who created BSB.  N'Sync existed as a group, but the manager of BSB snatched them up and made them famous.  NKOTB were the inspiration for the BSB manager (whose name escapes me right now).

Okay, I am still here, waiting for my confirmation email...but I just have to say one thing about the boy band trend...BSB, yes they were formed by the same man that did NKOTB...but Nsync on the other hand was formed on their own..one of the members founded the group, they were already friends and decided it would be cool to start singing together, the person that did start BSB and NKOTB was involved with them in the beginning, but that didn't last long when they realized it had been three years and they still hadn't receieved any royalties for any of their records..their record company was reaming them, so they went on their own...now i know that makes it sound like they only wanted money, because that is not it...they just wanted what was owed to them..which is fair....and Scott..thanks for the kind words...I will miss it here but right now I just can't deal with it..
