Mira Sorvino knows all about good kisses, but especially bad ones. While on location filming 'The Last Templar,' the actress broke five teeth in her mouth in a terrible speedboat incident. Shortly thereafter, as Mira Sorvino reports, the real embarrassment began: "And for some reason, right then our wonderful director, Paolo Barzman, decides that we should have a kiss to end all kisses, and so, after they paint even more bloody purple makeup on me, we have the big kiss."
Not all kisses are as inopportune as that shared between Mira Sorvino and costar Scott Foley. We have a number of kisses below that are empowering, beautiful, aggressive, and unusual. There are kisses you give yourself, supermodels kissing in photo shoots, lip-shaped purses and Band-Aids, kiss intensity and bad breath detectors, and a number of other bizarre kissovations--just in time for Valentine's Day.
