"Entertainment Weekly" ranked NSYNC as the best boy band of the period late 90s and 2000s; editor Madelne Boardman stated, "the group has a spot in pop history more than a decade late." "The Washington Post" stated it was one of the two boy bands "that dominated the late '90s and early '00s." According to "Billboard", "No Strings Attached" was the top album of the 2000s (decade), with "The Independent" listing it among the albums "that marked the decade." "Billboard" also ranked the group at number four on their list of the biggest boy bands (from the period 1987–2012) according to chart performance, with the staff writing, "despite having one of the most short-lived boy band careers, 'N Sync was arguably the most famous." Several acts have cited the group as an influence, including Kelsea Ballerini, Selena Gomez, Meghan Trainor, Why Don't We and Hayley Williams. On April 30, 2018, NSYNC reunited to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
