Lance Loves Michael: The Lance Bass Wedding (Thursday, Feb. 5, 8/7c, E!)

Former boy bander Lance Bass is all grown up and settled down with someone he’s truly in sync with: artist and actor Michael Turchin. Now the pair, who tied the knot in December, are sharing their big day in a special that Bass hopes might give gay youngsters a pair of romantic role models. “As a kid in Mississippi, I would have loved to have seen something like this,” Bass says. “We wanted to show the love story between us as well as how normal a gay couple can be.”

Cameras follow the two as they plan the lavish affair that boasts custom tuxedos, a 300-plus guest list, and a ceremony officiated by actresses Jamie- Lynn Sigler (The Sopranos) and JoAnna Garcia Swisher (Once Upon a Time). Recalls Bass, “There wasn’t a dry eye in the room.”
