NSYNC member Joey Fatone proved he still had the moves on Sunday when he launched into a surprise performance of "Bye Bye Bye" at a drag brunch in Miami.

Fatone, who was in town for a bachelor party, stopped by the Palace, a drag bar in South Beach, when drag queens Tiffany Fantasia and Elishaly D'Witshes began lipsyncing to the chart-topping NSYNC track. The former boy band member took the stage with Fantasia and D'witshes, grabbed a mic, started singing, and broke out the song's now-iconic choreography.

"WHAT A WEEKEND ITS BEEN ALREADY!!" the Palace wrote in the caption of an Instagram video capturing the action. "We had the honor of being visited by *NSYNC's own Joey Fatone, who joined us and sang one of their biggest hits with our queens for our visitors. You never know who's going to attend our shows!"

Diners at the Palace, for their part, went wild for Fatone's performance.

Fatone is one of NSYNC's original members, alongside Justin Timberlake, JC Chasez, Lance Bass, and Chris Kirkpatrick. Over the course of four studio albums and 18 singles, the boy band sold over 70 million records, with the single "Bye Bye Bye" peaking at number 4 on the US Billboard Hot 100.

Although NSYNC went on indefinite hiatus in 2002, the band took a political stance when it tweeted about the Affordable Care Act in 2013, irking some fans. Fatone's surprise appearance at the Palace on Sunday could ostensibly be viewed as pro-LGBTQ.

Over the last 15 years years, Fatone has kept relatively busy, competing on "Dancing with the Stars" in 2007, serving as an announcer on Steve Harvey's "Family Feud" from 2010 to 2015, and returning to the stage on the "Masked Singer" in 2019, where he tied with Rumer Willis for fourth place.
