Openly gay Lance Bass posts pic with The Bachelor's "Gays are more pervert" Juan Pablo Galavis

Lance Bass posted this pic on his Instagram account today with The Bachelor's Juan Pablo Galavis saying,  "So good to see my old pal Juan Pablo! Been waaay too long! Just keep your 'perverted' hands off me!!"

Last month, during Galavis' public dust-up over regarding gays as "more pervert," *NSYNC's Bass spoke out in his defense.

"I don't hate him at all," Bass said. "I still think he's cute."  Bass added at the time he has a massive crush on Galavis.

Galavis, who grew up in Venezuela, later said he respects gay people and blamed a language barrier for his use of the word "pervert."
