N Sync may be no more, but that doesn't stop them and their record label being sued for plagiarism. A musician called Troy Alexander, aka Royal T, is reportedly claiming the boy band or, rather, their label, nicked one of his songs for their hit album 'Celebrity'. He claims that he played bosses at N Sync's label Jive the track 'Up Against The Wall' in 1990, and that although they didn't hire his services, a version of the song later appeared on the 2001 released N Sync album. The label say they are not as yet formally aware of Alexander's claims, and there is no word on quite why it has taken the musician six years to go public with them.
