The Backstreet Boys and 'NSYNC may finally be teaming up...with Ed Sheeran.

The "Photograph" singer posted this ah-mazing picture of himself along with 'NSYNC's Joey Fatone and BSB's Howie Dorough with the caption, "We are starting a new band."

While I'm pretty much certain this is a joke, I have to ask Ed... Why would you toy with my emotions like that? You know I've been waiting years for BSB and 'NSYNC to come together, and with you in the mix, my teenage self wouldn't be able to handle it.

While I'm not really sure why these three were together, I'm thinking it may have something to do with Nick Carter's upcoming western zombie film "Dead 7." Howie and Joey, along with some other former boy banders, are both staring in the flick, and with Ed recently catching the acting bug (he's appearing in the upcoming FX series "The Bastard Executioner") it makes total sense.

“I had this idea of creating a cast that is so abstract and is so outside of the box when people are flipping through it on Netflix, they are like, we have to watch that,” Nick recently told us of the movie. “We need to twist things up, we need to mix things up and create something that is not the same old cookie cutter.”
