*NSync hint at reunion at Saturday Night Live 40th anniversary

Nineties band fronted by Justin Timberlake, *NSync, may be reuniting to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Saturday Night Live, the legendary comedy entertainment show.

*NSync's official Twitter wrote on February 14: "Together again... Gee, it's good to be together again." The tweet was hashtagged #SNL40, as a nod to the Saturday Night Live 40th anniversary special that is due to air tonight (February 15) on NBC.

Justin Timberlake, a former *NSync member and a SNL guest host, was among the initial wave of actors and musicians that joined the special.

Timberlake last reunited with his 'Bye Bye Bye' mates when he was given the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award at the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards.

Earlier this week, Timberlake posted a photo on Instagram of an SNL 40 writing session where he promised "Jimmy Fallon is onto something funny... We think." After getting the Saved By the Bell cast back together, perhaps an 'NSync reunion is now part of The Tonight Show host's plans.

More evidence that an *NSync reunion could be happening (weather permitting): Chris Kirkpatrick tweeted that his "early flight to NYC" today was canceled. Hopefully Kirkpatrick can hop another plane before the Saturday Night Live 40th anniversary special airs Sunday night at 8 p.m. EST

Paul McCartney, the Backstreet Boys, Arcade Fire, Kanye West and Jack White are also taking part in the Saturday Night Live 40th anniversary special.
