When
the Up In Smoke Tour came to the Nassau Coliseum in New York last
week, there was a surprise guest lurking backstage. He wasn’t
really noticed until the Eminem set came up. The man lingering
far outside of Em’s limelight was none other than Joey Anthony
Fatone, Jr. and he was enjoying himself to the abrasive sounds
of America’s Favorite, Slim Shady. Joey is a founding member of
the boy group, N’Sync. (For those that don’t know, Joey is the
“hardcore” member of N’Synch with the goatee.)
Joey wasn’t alone
as he had two massive security guards flanking both sides of him.
Maybe the guards were there to make sure that Slim Shady didn’t
attempt to attack because his hatred for boy/girl groups is well
documented via his music. Nevertheless, the show went on without
hitch and Joey nodded his head throughout the set.
