Lou Pearlman is best known for launching boy bands like NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys. But he is also known for spearheading one of the longest-running ponzi schemes in U.S. history. Dirty Pop, a new documentary series produced by TIME Studios, charts Pearlman’s rise and fall over three episodes, featuring perspectives from former employees of the music mogul and boy band members he mentored.
