SHOW ME THE MEANING OF BEING RICH
By C. Bottomley

Who wants to be a millionaire? Lance Bass of 'N Sync
and Howie Dorough of the Backstreet Boys already have
plenty of cash, thanks. But after selling millions of
records, both boy-band studs are going to make TV
appearances. Bass will appear on the popular game show
Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, while Howie will play
an alien on the WB series Roswell.

Lance couldn't increase his millions on the show,
though, even if he tried. With tough questions like
"Which one of these four people isn't in 'N Sync? Is
it Abraham Lincoln..." we think he's a shoo-in.

Other participants playing for charity will be music
stars Queen Latifah and Vanessa L. Williams, actor
David Duchovny, and comics Dana Carvey, Drew Carey,
and Ray Romano. Rosie O'Donnell, Kathie Lee Gifford
and - BAM! - loud-mouthed gourmand Emeril Lagasse are
also taking part.

The rules have been changed so no one will suffer the
humiliation of being unable to put key conflicts in
the Hundred Years War into chronological order.
Instead, each guest will warm the chair opposite
Regis. Let's hope for the sake of ABC's coffers there
aren't too many winners. You can see if Lance is a
brain when the shows air May 1 through to May 3.

If he uses Howie Backstreet as his lifeline, then
we've got a real news story. But while the Backstreet
Boy's chum A.J. tries his hand at being Johnny No
Name, Howie is flexing his acting muscles. He appears
on the season finale of troubled WB show Roswell. A
spokesperson for the WB said Howie will have a cameo
as an alien who visits the New Mexico town. With only
one line, however, it's a bit of a stretch to call it
a real acting role.

Despite the size of the part, MTV is already reporting
that this could lead to bigger things. The channel
says Howie is negotiating to star in a feature film
called Bloom. He is apparently up for the role of a
bully out to spoil a young boy's bar mitzvah
preparation. His first appearance as an actor was in
1989's Parenthood, as a kid in a classroom.

Roswell producers are just hoping that somebody is
watching. Although the show about alien kids with
hormonal hang-ups seems like a Buffy with tentacles,
fans are worried network executives are about to give
the show the axe. Prompted by the fan site
crashdown.com, they've mailed thousands of Tabasco
sauce bottles to producers.

Why? It seems the alien kids have to quaff the yummy
pepper sauce whenever they eat anything sweet. The New
York Post reports that Roswell is indeed getting
another chance. The show is moving to Monday night at
9 PM ET, right after 7th Heaven.
