During her interview, Alicia talked about her Christmas traditions.
She and her husband, hip hop producer Swizz Beatz, set aside time for the whole family, including children Egypt, 12, and Genesis, seven, to share handmade gifts.
The gift exchange encouraged their children to make a special effort to make something especially suitable for their family members, rather than just engage in simple consumerism.
He also said that Swizz was a ‘great gift giver’, although he said that he would never tell Hoda and Jenna what kind of gifts he had given her in order to keep it a secret between them.
