Boy Meets World‘s Danielle Fishel were an item?The one-time boy bander recently joined Fishel on her Pod Meets World podcast to talk about their former fling.
Though the series is typically dedicated to revisiting the beloved ABC sitcom (with stars Will Friedle and Rider Strong joining the actress in conversation), the most recent episode opened up a whole other nostalgic can of worms when Bass guested.The two spoke openly and warmly about their past relationship—years before Bass came out publicly as gay.
They met when NSYNC stopped by the networkfor a live “TGIF” special the Boy Meets World cast hosted in 1999, during which time Bass says he developed an instant crush on Fishel.Apparently, she had no idea about this until months later when the musician had to have Justin Timberlake ask her her number for him.
Ah, young love!In any event, the pair dated for some time even though Bass was on tour with NSYNC and Fishel was preoccupied with Boy Meets World‘s busy filming schedule.
