Go on Tour with Feid

If you’re a huge reggaeton fan, you probably know Colombian singer Feid. Feid has always been an avid user of Airbnb and approached them expressing his desire to create an experience for his fans.

This monster-truck tour bus includes Feid’s favorite Columbian snacks, video games and even opportunities to play dress-up with green and orange wigs, sunglasses and fuzzy bucket hats. Everything on this bus is fuzzy and comfy; you won’t want to leave.

From the moment you step into the bus, you’ll feel as if you’re already going on tour with Feid. You’ll get a behind-the-scenes look at his tour life as one of his crew members and experience life through his eyes.

Fun fact: Feid’s sister, Manuela Villada, designed his monster-truck tour bus. She picked out all the colors and designed its style to fit her brother’s aesthetic.

Drift Off in Disney Pixar’s ‘Up’ House

Prepare to immerse yourself in the magical worlds of Disney and Pixar. You can now book Carl’s house from Disney Pixar’s Up on Airbnb. This house from the beloved animated film is located in Abiquiu, New Mexico and it includes 1 bedroom, 2 beds, and 1 bath.

Airbnb focused on every detail of the home from the movie to replicate it in real life. Brain Chesky stated, “This is a real house that we built from scratch. We had to paint every detail of the home to match the exact colors used in the film.” From the moment you step inside, you’ll feel you’re inside Carl and Ellie’s home, with the iconic living room set up, ballon strings under the chimney, Carl’s chair lift at the bottom of the staircase, and more. You’ll be sure to spot all the features and details you’ve seen in the movie as if you were in Carl’s shoes.

“This is not just a house, this is an experience,” Chesky said. Like that in the movie, this house also goes up! “This is a 40,000-pound house with 8,000 balloons attached to it, and it’s suspended 50 feet above the ground,” he said. Hurry up and book, adventure awaits.

Want to Dance With Lance Bass? Here’s How *NSYNC Fans Can Join

All products and services featured are independently chosen by editors. However, Billboard may receive a commission on orders placed through its retail links, and the retailer may receive certain auditable data for accounting purposes.

Lance Bass is kicking off the month of May with a special collaboration. The singer teamed with Marriott Bonvoy for a one-of-a-kind dance experience that *NSYNC fans won’t want to miss.

Announced Wednesday (May 1), the private dance experience is part of Marriott Bonvoy Moments’ 1-Point Drops, where members can use just 1 point to bid on epic experiences.

Trending on Billboard

“I was excited for this opportunity with Marriott, so I can connect with the fans and do something super exclusive with them and of course, we’re going to do some amazing, fun dancing together,” Bass said in a phone interview with Billboard on Monday. “I won’t tell you exactly the song we’re going to do, but it’s a one-hour dance class where we let go of all our inhibitions, dance like nobody’s watching, and have a really fun time.

“And of course, we’re going to take center stage for a final performance all together,” he added. “It’ll be fun.”  

TikTok dance duo Cost n’ Mayor will join Bass for the “nostalgic dance class” set to take place at Heart WeHo in West Hollywood, Calif., on Friday, July 26. The dance experience will include a meet-and-greet and photo opportunities with Bass and Cost n’ Mayor.

Marriott Bonvoy Moments gives members the opportunity to use their points to gain access to unique experiences and other activities offered for set price, auctions, or for just one point. Guests can bid on the 1-Point Drop with Lance Bass and Cost n’ Mayor Dance Experience starting Thursday (May 2) at noon ET.

And fans don’t need previous experience to hit the dance floor. “You’ll be surprised what a choreographer can get you to do within an hour,” Bass said. “So yeah, by the end of this, no one’s going to be nervous. They’re going to have so much fun, they’re going to beg to do it again.”

Bass, who hosts the podcast Frosted Tips, recently returned back to the States from Egypt, where he attended the wedding of billionaire Ankur Jain and former WWE star Erika Hammond and did an impromptu performance of *NSYNC’s “Bye, Bye, Bye.”

“I don’t think there’s been a wedding in the last 25 years that I haven’t just got up onstage, maybe had a couple of drinks beforehand [and performed] ‘Bye, Bye, Bye.’”

The song is still a fan favorite more than 20 years after it was released. “It’s always ‘Bye, Bye, Bye’ that everyone wants at their wedding. Especially at the end,” Bass said. “It’s funny because [‘Bye, Bye, Bye’] wasn’t even our biggest song, but I think it’s one of the most memorable. It’s because you can fit it in to so many different situations. Saying ‘bye, bye, bye’ to anything. It’s also nostalgic [and] I think people are wanting that right now.”

Speaking of nostalgia, Bass and the rest of *NSYNC joined Justin Timberlake for a surprise performance in March, and while no official reunion tour has been announced, Bass will likely attend Timberlake’s Forget Tomorrow World Tour, which launched in Vancouver, B.C., on April 29.

“This summer I’m really going to take some time off, enjoy traveling with the kids,” said Bass, who shares 2-year-old twins with husband Michael Turchin. “Go see the grandparents down in Miami and Mississippi. Go visit my friends in New York City, maybe go see Justin [Timberlake] on a couple of shows because I know he starts the tour [April 29], which we’re super excited for. I just want to eat up every moment I can with the kids these days.”
