*NSYNC Singer Causes Stir With 'Schizophrenic' Album Cover
Chasez Pictured In Straight Jacket
Posted: 12:14 p.m. EST March 4, 2004
The singer who was dumped from the Pro Bowl halftime show is angering a
publication dedicated to people who suffer from schizophrenia.
J.C. Chasez is causing a stir with the publisher of the Schizophrenic
Digest over the cover of his debut album "Schizophrenic." On the
cover, Chasez -- a member of the pop group *NSYNC -- is pictured in a
straight jacket.
Bill MacPhee, himself a schizophrenia sufferer, said the cover does
nothing to help
eliminate the stigma of mental illness.
Calls to Chasez's representatives were not returned.
The NFL pulled Chasez from the halftime entertainment lineup of the Pro
Bowl in Hawaii in February as a cautious move sparked by the
breast-baring incident involving his fellow *NSYNC singer Justin
Timberlake and Janet Jackson.
The NFL instead asked Chasez to sing the national anthem, but since the
singer said he was asked to switch song choices and change lyrics before
being dumped from the halftime show, he refused.
