Lance Bass and Danielle Fishel are making a movie about how they dated more than 20 years ago and went to her senior prom . . . and how it started Lance on the road to accepting himself and admitting he was gay.
Before he came out, Lance Bass on ‘NSync dated Danielle Fishel from “Boy Meets World.” They were together from 1999 to 2000 and even went to her senior prom together.
Now the former couple is getting back together to make a movie that includes what happened in their hotel room afterward.
On the “Pod Meets World” podcast, Danielle said, “Lance and I had a hotel room booked and I had a vision for what that night was going to be, and Lance was very nervous about what my vision for that night was going to be.”
She added, “It was kind of the impetus for him to say, ‘I’m going to end our relationship.'”
Lance, who was a guest on the podcast, explained, “The reason we wanted to make this prom story into a film, I think so many people can relate to that story. So many people in the LGBT community, their prom night was the night they were like, ‘Oh, wait a minute. This can’t happen anymore.’
“This was the catalyst for me that made me start to accept myself, which took a long time after that, but that was definitely the first little straw that broke,” he added.
