Scam Goddess

Before Netflix's "Dirty Pop: The Boy Band Scam" Teresa Lee (Girls5eva) joined the Con-gregation to break down the scams and abuse of Lou Pearlman—the man who launched the careers of *NSYNC, The Backstreet Boys, and Britney Spears but conned the musicians out of their hard-earned money and ran one of the largest Ponzi schemes in U.S. history. Don't worry y'all, we drag his ass! (Originally Released 01/07/2020)
