Danielle Fishel<\/a> and Lance Bass<\/a> couldn’t help but brag about their gift-giving skills during a recent interview<\/a>.<\/p>\n “Lance gave me a gift back in 1999. He had been on tour in Italy \u2014 well, not Italy, all of Europe \u2014 and you bought me a little gift from every country you went to,” the Boy Meets World<\/em><\/a> alum, 45, said during a candid conversation with host John Battagliese<\/a>, which streams for free on QVC+\/HSN+<\/a>. “So thoughtful!”<\/p>\n “You brought me back little… I think there were pajamas. There was a little Prada bag. So many cute things. Also, in Hawaii, he went \u2014 I was going to say fishing. You didn’t really go fishing. It was looking for the pearl in the oyster,” she continued. “You shuck the oyster, find the pearl, and then they put it into a dolphin necklace.”<\/p>\n The pair used to date. QVC<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n “How romantic is that?” the *NSYNC member, 47, quipped.<\/p>\n For his part, Bass said he enjoys “experiences.”<\/p>\n “Again, stuff just kind of… you know, it builds up. So I really love being able to give experiences to my kids. Even if it’s a trip down the street to Disneyland or getting an RV and taking a road trip up the coast, I like that. I like giving them fun memories,” he explained.<\/p>\n The pair, who are the network’s co-Chief Cheer Officers and have been besties for a long time, also spoke about their holiday traditions.<\/p>\n Danielle Fishel complimented Lance Bass’ gift-giving skills. QVC<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n “I will watch A Christmas Story<\/em> 20 times during December, and I don’t care that they took it off TBS \u2014 or whatever it was on. I will watch it every year, 20 times,” Bass, who shares two kids<\/a> with husband Michael Turchin<\/strong>, said. “It’ll go between A Christmas Story<\/em>, Christmas Vacation<\/em>, and, you know, Elf<\/em> is in there now. There are a lot of new traditions, but Christmas Vacation<\/em> and A Christmas Story<\/em> are the two that I grew up on, and that is my Christmas. And of course, Home Alone<\/em>.”<\/p>\n “I will die on this hill that we should all sleep in on Christmas morning,” the actress, who shares two kids with husband Jensen Karp<\/strong>, added. “We should stay up late on Christmas Eve and sleep in on Christmas Day. And I cannot convince my children.”<\/p>\n The duo spoke about their Christmas traditions in a new interview. @lancebass\/Instagram<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n The two previously gushed to OK!<\/em> about their unique bond<\/a>.<\/p>\n “I\u2019m so fortunate. This industry can chew people up and spit them out, but we\u2019ve been able to ebb and flow. There were times I thought, ‘Is this the end?’ Before Girl Meets World<\/em>, I was actually going to get my master\u2019s in marriage and family therapy \u2014 and I was happy on that path. Then the show came along, I started directing\u2026 just being able to adapt has been huge. I think a lot of it also comes down to the relationships we\u2019ve built. I\u2019ll say it \u2014 we\u2019re both good, authentic people. We\u2019re easy to work with, we haven\u2019t burned bridges, and that goes a long way,” she shared. “You always want to evolve in an industry you love. I had no idea where I\u2019d be this many years later, but I hoped I\u2019d still be here doing what I love. I feel very lucky I\u2019m still entertaining people \u2014I haven\u2019t been kicked out yet.”<\/p>\n Read more at OK!<\/a><\/p>\n Get OK!’s biggest scoops and scandals delivered right to your inbox.
