Try to Read This List of '90s Boy Bands Without Saying "I Totally Forgot About Them"

Long before Zayn Malik used funky text on the back of his debut album, there was 2Ge+Her (pronounced "Together"). The boy band was dreamed up by MTV to mock popular real-life bands *NSYNC and Backstreet Boys in a TV movie with satirical songs like "U + Me = Us (Calculus)" and "Say It (Don't Spray It)." Though essentially they began as just a joke, 2Ge+Her gained a legit fandom and even opened up several shows for Britney Spears during her 2000 Summer tour. With the exception of Cribs, The Real World, and TRL (and maybe a few other things), 2Ge+Her is one of the greatest gifts MTV has ever bestowed upon us.
