HOLLYWOOD: Actress Nicole Kidman revealed the on-screen kiss that put her off the most during a recent podcast interview.

Speaking on the Las Culturistas podcast hosted by Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang, the 58-year-old recalled filming scenes with co-star Alexander Skarsgård in the 2017 drama series Big Little Lies.

Kidman said Skarsgård once ate a falafel sandwich before they filmed a kissing scene, prompting her to object.

“When Alexander Skarsgård ate a falafel sandwich before we did the scenes in Big Little Lies, I'm like, ‘No, no, no, Alex,’” she said.

“‘I'm meant to be into you and kissing you — put away the falafel now… No more falafel. Not before you kiss, not before you make love.’”

Kidman added that bad breath was a “deal-breaker” for her, saying: “You could be the most gorgeous, gorgeous guy, and if you came at me with bad breath, I'm like, no.”
