David Archuleta Enjoys New Life, Manhunt & Makeup Magic 










David Archuleta, the pop sensation who first captured our hearts on “American Idol,” is enjoying his new life to the fullest. Like last years playful TikTok video where Archuleta was seen thanking a pharmacy employee for helping him pick the right makeup to cover what appeared to be a hickey on his neck. With a cheeky smile, he explained, “I was just thanking the Walgreens employee who helped me show the magic of makeup, you know?” This light-hearted moment speaks volumes about his current journey of self-exploration and freedom.





Since coming out as part of the LGBTQ+ community, Archuleta has been candid about his experiences and the nuances of his personal life. In a revealing conversation with Out, he shared insights into his dating life, emphasizing a slow and mindful approach. “I’ve been enjoying the process,” he revealed. “I don’t close the door necessarily on anything. I’m still trying to figure out who I am, and it’s been nice. It’s nice not having to feel controlled by anything.” His words reflect a man who is patiently untangling the threads of his upbringing under Mormon expectations, which often pushed him towards early marriage and a predetermined life path.

Now free from those pressures, Archuleta is discovering what it means to live authentically. He’s taking the time to understand his preferences and attractions. “Now I can just get to know people, interact with them, and see who I have chemistry with and who I don’t,” he says. This exploration is not just about dating; it’s about self-awareness and growing into his own identity at his own pace.





David Archuleta’s journey is a vivid narrative of a queer individual embracing their truth, finding joy in the small things—like the right shade of concealer for a hickey—and moving beyond societal expectations to find personal happiness. His story isn’t just inspiring; it’s a colorful reminder of the importance of living life on your own terms. As he continues to navigate his path with grace and humor, we can’t help but root for him every step of the way.

As the flowers bloom and the temperatures rise, so does the anticipation for the annual meme fest known as “It’s Gonna Be May.” This year, none other than *NSYNC’s own Lance Bass and his darling husband, Michael Turchin, have put a deliciously unique spin on this pop culture staple, turning it into a moment of comedic genius and shared joy within the LGBTQ+ community.





On a bright Tuesday evening, Lance Bass, the ever-charming 44-year-old *NSYNC alum, shared a chuckle-worthy Instagram video that not only celebrated the iconic meme but also showcased the couple’s playful dynamics. The video, which quickly went viral, featured Turchin at the dinner table faced with a bowl of ramen and what he thought was a romantic note from Bass. The suspense built as he read aloud, “Michael, roses are red, April is gray, but when you wake up tomorrow…” only to be hilariously interrupted by a pan to Bass, who, donning a ramen “wig” mimicking Justin Timberlake’s infamous curls, cheekily lip-synced “It’s gonna be May.”





This twist on Timberlake’s own playful acknowledgment of the meme’s longevity—which he recently referenced in a TikTok video—adds another layer of humor and connection for the fans. Justin, at 43, continues to embrace the fun, showing that some jokes just get better with age.

Lance and Michael’s creative take on this beloved meme not only speaks volumes about their relationship but also highlights their active participation in the digital and cultural dialogues that resonate within the gay community. It’s a brilliant reflection of how humor can be a loving nod to pop culture history while bringing a couple closer together in public eye.





*NSYNC’s “It’s Gonna Be Me” has been a recurring springtime anthem since its release in 2000, thanks in no small part to Max Martin’s production choices, which turned a simple lyric into a yearly viral phenomenon. Joey Fatone, another bandmate, recently reminisced about the origin of the meme, noting the strategic pronunciation shift suggested by Martin, which accidentally gave birth to this enduring meme culture staple.





As we relish Lance and Michael’s adorable contribution to the “It’s Gonna Be May” lore, it’s clear that this meme isn’t just a nod to nostalgia—it’s a living, evolving piece of pop culture embraced by a community that values humor, history, and a touch of sass. Whether it’s through a bowl of ramen or a dance move, Lance Bass and Michael Turchin remind us that joy can be found in the most unexpected moments.
