Top 10 Actors Who Had Their First Kiss On Screen
Lights, Camera, Kiss! For this list, we'll be looking at actors whose very first kiss was in front of a camera.We've included Kirsten Dunst from Interview with the Vampire, Josh Hutchinson from Little Manhattan, Selena Gomez from the Suite Life of Zack & Cody and more!
#10: Kristen Dunst “Interview with the Vampire” (1994)
Kristen Stewart Bio and Acting Origins
Most people would be pretty darn pleased if their first kiss happened to be with Brad Pitt, but Kirsten Dunst actually didn’t like it one bit. She was only 11 years old, and still at that ‘boys have cooties’ stage, and she, understandably, just didn’t see the appeal, to say the least. Filming the kiss (a peck, really, of course, she was just a kid) may not have left her with the most pleasant memories but “Interview with the Vampire” was a huge stepping stone in her career, earning her multiple awards and nominations including a Golden Globe Nomination. Luckily she seems to have grown out of her kiss aversion otherwise the world might be without the iconic “Spider-Man” lip-lock.
#9: Josh Hutcherson “Little Manhattan” (2005)
Top 10 Josh Brolin Performances
When Josh Hutcherson was just 11, he was absolutely terrified to learn that he would have his first kiss on the set of “Little Manhattan” (as with Kirsten Dunst — we totes get it!) He was so scared, that his father flew down to give his son a little extra support. Even with both of his parents on set, Josh says it was a horrible moment, and we can only imagine, with all those cameras rolling and strangers watching. Luckily, though, being uncertain, nervous, and a little panicked suited his character perfectly. First kisses tend to be pretty awkward, after all.
#8: Candace Cameron Bure “Full House” (1987-95)
Candace was cast as DJ Tanner on “Full House” when she was just 11 (hey, we sense a trend). Since the show is all about family and growing up, it was really only a matter of time until boys came into the equation. When Candace was 13 she, and her character, had their very first kiss (not together, she wasn’t kissing a mirror). Thirteen is a pretty average age to have your first kiss but Candace had hers broadcast on national television. Luckily for Candace, the kiss was just a quick peck, but definitely an unusually public way to experience the milestone.
#7: Ashley Benson “Days of Our Lives” (1965-)
Top 10 Celebrities You Forgot Were in Mary-Kate & Ashley Movies
This entry is literally straight out of a soap opera. Ashley was 15 when she had her first kiss with her older co-star Darin Brooks. Ashley was pretty mature and even blunt about the entire situation, and told Darin and that he, like, shouldn’t be weird about it. This first kiss also happened during a party scene, so the set was a little more crowded than Ashley would have liked. At least she managed to forbid her Mom from going to set that day; unlike Josh, she didn’t want her parents anywhere near the smooch.
#6: Selena Gomez “The Suite Life of Zack & Cody” (2005-08)
Top 10 Best Selena Gomez Performances
In this instance it was a case of . . . KISSCEPTION. Selena was playing a girl who was herself acting in a play that involved a kiss. Gomez’s appearance on the show kicked off a beautiful friendship in real life, and she’s been good friends with the Twins ever since. And Selena wasn’t the first young actress to experience her very first kiss on the show. Victoria Justice had her first smooch as well, only she kissed Cole and Selena kissed Dylan. Victoria emphasizes that the kiss wasn’t romantic or weird, it was just a part o’ the job.
#5: Keke Palmer “Jump In!” (2007)
Keke was just 12 when she had her first kiss with Corbin Bleu in this Disney original movie. Here’s the thing about show biz and filming, however:: even though it was just a quick kiss, Keke has talked about how they had to act out the scene some 20 times until they got it right! (Hey, does that mean she had 20 “first kisses”?) Corbin Bleu fans will be happy to know that he was a perfect gentleman and made Keke feel a little better about having her first kiss on camera. Np word on what kiss number it was for him.
#4: Dakota Fanning “Sweet Home Alabama” (2002)
Top 10 Moments That Made Us Love Dakota Johnson
On a dark and stormy movie set, Dakota Fanning had her first kiss at just 7-years-old (she was kissing a 10-year-old, just for the record). She is the youngest on our list but it’s not that surprising, since she started acting when she was merely 4. Now that’s a child actor. Even though she’s worked with the likes of Tom Cruise and Sean Penn, she claims that this kiss scene was the most intimidating moment of her career. She was a little grossed out by the experience but, ever the professional, she discreetly wiped her mouth in between takes as to not offend her young co-star.
#3: Fred Savage and Danica McKellar “The Wonder Years” (1988-1993)
Top 20 Iconic Fred Astaire Dance Scenes
“The Wonder Years” was a show that really delved into the bitter-sweet, and sometimes just bitter, moments you experience growing up. Look, in its very first episode it had the death of Winnie’s brother and then the first kiss between Winnie and Kevin. Adorably enough, McKellar, who played Winnie, was so excited in the first take, she was smiling. (They had to do 6 takes to get the right shot since smiles didn’t match the tone of the scene.) Savage remembers being a little terrified, nervous and excited about the scene. Which are pretty normal feelings surrounding a first kiss, cameras aside. Or hey, many kisses, for that matter.
#2: Ben Savage and Danielle Fishel “Boy Meets World” (1993-2000)
Top 20 Actors Who Had Their First Kiss On Screen
And the kissing Savage-ry continues. Millennials, and fans of this show, get ready for a wave of nostalgia. Everyone who admired Cory and Topanga’s relationship will be happy to know that their first was also the actors’ first kiss. The 11 and 12 year olds were quite nervous about the entire thing; poor Ben even went pale. The show was also filmed in front of a live studio audience, which didn’t help the youngsters’ nerves any. The kiss ended up being the first of many; and the two would go on kissing for the rest of the show. Before we reveal our top pick here are a few honorable mentions.
#1: Mila Kunis “That ‘70s Show” (1998-2006)
Whether or not you believe in fate, we can all agree that our number one on this list is pretty flippin’ incredible. Mila was only 14 when she kissed Ashton Kutcher on the set of “That ‘70s Show”. Both were hella nervous, but Mila was also particularly stoked since she had a secret crush on her hunky young co-star. Who would have thought that, 15 years later, these two awkward kissers would go ahead and get married? Not many people have had their first kiss with their spouse recorded!
