Most stars do exactly what their directors tells them to, whether it&#8217;s saving a damsel or planting one on her before they roll the credits.<\/p>\n<p>A select group of stars, however, won\u2019t commit to that act, and they have various reasons for it.<\/p>\n<p>Some, such as Neal McDonough, a veteran actor \u201cYellowstone\u201d And \u201cJustified\u201d fame, refuse to kiss anyone other than their wives \u2013 on screen or off. McDonough has been married to model\u00a0Ruve Robertson for nearly 20 years, and he says his no-kissing policy\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/actor-neal-mcdonough-says-lost-job-refused-sex-scene-hard-years-2-163132726.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">His otherwise thriving career was ruined<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>McDonough, a deeply religious host, was fired by the ABC program. \u201cScoundrels\u201d When he refused to film sex scenes alongside Virginia Madsen. According to the actor, that caused his phone&#8217;s to stop ringing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter that, I couldn\u2019t get a job because everybody thought I was this religious zealot.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Producer Graham Yost, who worked with McDonough on HBO\u2019s \u201cBand of Brothers,\u201d He saved him from the creative abyss. Yost hired the actor to play a villain on the third season of FX\u2019s \u201cJustified,\u201d He said that a gig was what re-ignited him in his career.<\/p>\n<p>It won\u2019t surprise Kirk Cameron\u2019s fanbase that he holds a similar worldview when it comes to his craft. The \u201cGrowing Pains\u201d alum is one of show business\u2019 most openly Christian performers, and he similarly refuses to kiss anyone but his wife with or without cameras rolling.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s been his practice for some time, but it didn\u2019t stop a powerful moment from his 2008 hit \u201cFireproof\u201d It is not possible. Cameron was asked about the scene.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.today.com\/popculture\/kirk-cameron-ill-only-kiss-my-wife-2D80555063\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kiss his wife Erin Bethea, who plays the role.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>It was important that the scene be set. \u201cFireproof\u201d They got creative. They brought in Cameron\u2019s wife, Chelsea Noble, who he met on the set of \u201cGrowing Pains,\u201d The two of them shared a kiss. The sequence was shot in silhouette, obscuring Noble\u2019s face enough for audiences to believe Cameron\u2019s firefighter was kissing Bethea.<\/p>\n<p>The father of six isn\u2019t interested in winning over mainstream Hollywood studios or casting directors. He is a steady worker in the faith-based sector, including on his hit for 2022. \u201cLifemark.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Actor Penn Badgley doesn\u2019t mind an occasional on-screen kiss, but anything <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/you-actor-penn-badgley-requested-fewer-sex-scenes-in-season-4-out-of-respect-for-his-marriage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">It goes beyond this<\/a> He crosses a bold line these days. Anchors the actor \u201cYou,\u201d Netflix&#8217;s drama about a serial killer falling for a different woman every season as the body count rises.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The show\u2019s steamy nature suggests a crush of sex scenes, something the\u00a0actor finds increasingly uncomfortable. For that reason, he almost turned down the show at first.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy fidelity in my relationship \u2026 it was one of the reasons that I initially wanted to turn the role down,\u201d Badgley claimed. \u201cI didn\u2019t tell anybody that. But that is why.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Badgley\u2019s wife, Domino Kirke-Badgley, suggested he take the role despite that aspect of the series. The saga\u2019s fourth season features fewer sexual encounters, and Badgley is fully clothed during them.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Others stars have never experienced professional grief for their positions.<\/p>\n<p>Denzel Washington, the beloved actor who was twice awarded an Oscar, is an example. Although he is often the romantic lead in movies, he refused to kiss his co-star in a 1993 thriller.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Washington joined Julia Roberts to create this partnership \u201cThe Pelican Brief,\u201d a film which could have seen the two exchange a lip lock \u2026 or more. They shared a deep romantic connection. However, the kiss did not occur.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Roberts was willing to take the opportunity, but Washington declined, though for a reason that Washington did not understand. The actor previously kissed a white actress on screen, Mimi Rogers, in an early cut of 1989\u2019s \u201cThe Mighty Quinn.\u201d Test screenings found Washington\u2019s most faithful audience, black women, disliking the sequence. The film\u2019s final cut left the moment out, and it inspired him to do the same with any Roberts kiss.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He explained to us his reasoning.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsweek.com\/will-it-be-denzels-day-147887\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Newsweek 2002.<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBlack women are not often seen as objects of desire on film. They have always been my core audience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Some stars don\u2019t mind kissing on screen, but some actors leave them so cold they\u2019d rather avoid that act entirely. Lindsay Lohan is no stranger to tabloid headlines throughout the years.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tmz.com\/2012\/12\/21\/lindsay-lohan-charlie-sheen-scary-movie-5-kiss\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">She was reluctant to kiss Charlie Sheen, her co-star<\/a>\u00a0during the production of 2013\u2019s \u201cScary Movie 5.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Why? She felt uncomfortable with Sheen\u2019s notorious partying, leaving the production to use body doubles to complete the necessary scenes. Sheen, rarely shy about sharing his opinions, reportedly went along peacefully with Lohan\u2019s request.<\/p>\n<p>Ironically, Lohan\u2019s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/people.com\/movies\/chad-michael-murray-lindsay-lohan-first-kiss-jamie-lee-curtis-freaky-friday\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">First on-screen kiss in the \u201cFreaky Friday\u201d Reboot<\/a>\u00a0gave her the jitters, too, but co-star Jamie Lee Curtis broke the ice off-screen by smooching her romantic target, actor Chad Michael Murray, to show her it wasn\u2019t a big deal.<\/p>\n<p>The most curious of Hollywood\u2019s non-kiss kisses? The comedy of 2023 \u201cYou People\u201d Lauren London plays Jonah Hill&#8217;s Jewish broker, who falls in love a black designer.
