STUDIO CITY, CA. (THECOUNT) — As it turns out, cable network, HGTV, snatched up the Brady Bunch house in a purchase that left former ‘NSYNC member Lance Bass “heartbroken.”
Bass had previously placed a bid on the house, and announced on social media he had placed the winning bid. But the next day, he gave an update that he was “heartbroken” to learn a corporation had outbid him after the deadline had passed. It’s unclear how much HGTV paid for the property.
