Justin Timberlake wants Lance Bass to understand that when he becomes a parent, he can say "bye, bye, bye" to his free time.

On Sunday (July 25), 42-year-old Lance posted a video on his Instagram that he had previously shared over the weekend on TikTok. In the footage, the *NSYNC-er dances using a green screen filter with a trending video on the platform that shows a group of people dancing side to side.

Lance's double-posted videos both had the text: "When JT finally responds to my text..." through the duration of the video. Captioned, "It’s the little things! Mission accomplished. Happy 20th Anniversary Celebrity!"

A few days prior, Bass posted a video on his TikTok FaceTiming all the members of *NSYNC, but as soon as they would answer, Bass would tell them that he's "too busy" and that they're going to have to call him back -- even though he's the one who called them. The pranking video was hilarious, but at the end, as he was trying to reach Justin, he got a "Call Unavailable" notification.

To make it clear that there is no ill-intention behind Justin's silence, the 40-year-old "What Goes Around... Comes Around" singer and father of two chucked it to the difficulties of parent-leisure balance. In June, Lance and his husband Michael Turchin actually revealed they are expecting twins (boy and girl) via a surrogate. Lance and Michael said they always knew that if they were going to start the family, they wanted to go for twins because Michael’s a boy/girl twin.

Per E!, Justin wrote on his Instagram story in response with laughing emojis, "Once those babies show up… your unavailability will all make sense, bro." Lance then shared Justin's comment to his Instagram Story and added, "Touché!"

Justin shares 6-year-old Silas and 12-month-old Phineas with his wife of nearly nine years, Jessica Biel.
