Joey Fatone wants to expand his hot dog business

Former *NSYNC band member Joey Fatone, who already owns a hot dog stand called Fat Ones in Orlando, says he's ready to open more locations in Florida and hopes to expand elsewhere.

"I'd love to branch out into (New York City) and also Brooklyn or Bensonhurst, the neighbourhood where I was born," he told pagesix.com.

"There are endless places, but it's a matter of finding a good place that would fit the Fat One's brand."

Fatone, 40, also said he's in talks with production companies for a TV series, and that Fat One's could be hitting the road in a food truck.

"I want to travel across country to spread the word about Fat One's, but also get an insight on areas and locations to possibly open (stores)," he said.

He revealed that he shot scenes for an episode of "Wahlburgers" with Donnie Wahlberg.

He said there have been talks of cross-promotions between the two companies.
