Sally Field’s worst on-screen kiss might be a surprise

 

I’ve always been a fan of Sally Field. She is a legend and truly a gifted actress. And the 76-year-old has shared many on-screen romances in her storied career.

She has had, therefore, her fair share of on-screen kisses as well. She recently shared which has been the worst, although she hesitated to admit which costar it was with at first. 

Considered one of the most versatile and talented actresses of her generation, Sally Field can look back on a fantastic career in Hollywood. She has charmed us with some iconic roles in numerous films and tv shows.

For example, I will never forget her unforgettable performance in Steel Magnolias and that funeral scene. Sally did an excellent job of portraying a woman torn by love, discouragement, anger, and loss. 

But of course, she’s also famous for her roles in famous movies and series like Gidget, The Flying Nun, Smokey and the Bandit, Forrest Gump, Mrs. Doubtfire, and Erin Brockovich.

Sally was born into a working-class showbiz family in Pasadena, California.


But her childhood was far from a fairytale. In her memoirs, Sally wrote that her stepfather did some very bad things to her and she had a secret abortion at 17.

Yet she turned out to be such a beautiful, humble human being.

As for today, Sally still continues to work regularly. She played Janice in the 2020 TV series Dispatches From Elsewhere. In 2022, she stars as Jessie Buss in Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty, the popular tv series that portrays the professional and personal lives of the 1980s Los Angeles Lakers.

So considering how active she is, it’s not surprising that Sally appears in interviews from time to time.


On Thursday, Dec. 1, episode of “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen,” beloved star Sally Field decided to admit her worst on-screen kiss to the public after a probing question by a fan came in. 

Field, 76, looked around after the question was asked, laughing, “Oh boy. Shall I really name names here?”

“I think you should,” Cohen, 54, replied.

Field caved: “Okay. This is going to be a shocker. Hold on folks.” 

The Oscar-winning actress named her former boyfriend–star Burt Reynolds–as the culprit. 

Cohen quickly followed up, asking, “But weren’t you dating at the time?”

Field explained that it was during filming for “Smokey and the Bandit” that she had to “look the other way” during filming. She said this was because this  “just was not something he really did for you.”

“Isn’t that something,” Cohen responded in surprise. 

The actress went on to explain that there was a lot of “drooling” on Reynolds’ part during their time sharing the screen. 

The two co-stars met in 1977 while filming “Smokey and the Bandit,” and they went on to date for about five years. 

Reynolds, who sadly died of cardiac arrest at 82, reportedly talked about his relationship with Field in his memoir But Enough About Me, according to the New York Post.

The star expressed regret about their time together, wishing that he had tried harder to make things work between them.


In March, Field explained to Variety that she had stopped speaking with Reynolds in the final 30 years of his life with good reason. 

“He was not someone I could be around,” she elaborated. “He was just not good for me in any way. And he had somehow invented in his rethinking of everything that I was more important to him than he had thought, but I wasn’t. He just wanted to have the thing he didn’t have. I just didn’t want to deal with that.”

Always have had nothing but high praise and respect for the works of Sally Field. Absolutely top-notch!

Common back-pain drug may be linked to higher dementia risk, large study finds

  A pain medication that millions of Americans rely on for chronic back pain may come with a hidden risk: a significantly higher chance of developing dementia or other cognitive problems, according to a major new study. Compared 26,000 adults Researchers from Case Western Reserve University and several partner institutions analyzed medical records from 68 health systems across the U.S., comparing 26,414 adults prescribed gabapentin for persistent low-back pain with a matched group who had similar pain — but didn’t take the drug. Their finding was sobering: Adults who received six or more gabapentin prescriptions were 29% more likely to be diagnosed with dementia and 85% more likely to develop mild cognitive impairment (MCI) within 10 years. The risk wasn’t limited to older adults. In fact, it was younger Americans who saw the most dramatic increases. Younger adults saw shocking risk increases For people normally considered decades away from dementia: Ages 35–49 taking gabapentin ha...

More people are coming out as Aegosexual – here’s what it means

  As discussions around sexuality become more layered, so does the vocabulary used to describe them. One term now drawing attention is aegosexual, an “identity-less” experience that’s defined by “disconnection.” With gender and sexuality now part of everyday conversation, it’s no surprise that a growing number of new labels are finding their way into the mainstream. Aegosexuality, part of the asexual spectrum, describes people who experience arousal or desire without wanting to engage in sexual activity. At its core, the identity centers on a disconnect between experiencing attraction and wanting to personally act on it. ‘Disconnection’ The concept was first introduced in 2012 by Canadian psychologist and sexologist Anthony Bogaert, who originally referred to it as “autochorissexualism.” Bogaert described the experience as an “identity-less sexuality,” that’s “characterized by a disconnection between their sense of self and a sexual object or target.” In practical terms, someone wh...
