Sally Field’s worst on-screen kiss in her decades-long career might be a surprise to most

I have always thought Sally Field was amazing. She is an actress of legendary caliber. In addition, the 76-year-old has a long history of on-screen romances.

As a result, she has received her fair share of kisses on TV. Though at first she was reluctant to reveal whose costar it was with, she finally revealed which has been the worst.

Sally Field, regarded as one of the most gifted and adaptable actors of her generation, has had an incredible Hollywood career. Her legendary roles in a number of movies and television shows have won us over.

She gave an amazing performance in Steel Magnolias, for instance, and the funeral scene is something I will always remember.Sally portrayed a woman torn by love, disappointment, hatred, and loss, and she did a fantastic job at it.

She is, of course, also well-known for her parts in popular television shows and films, including Erin Brockovich, The Flying Nun, Gidget, Forrest Gump, and Sweet and the Bandit.

In Pasadena, California, Sally was born into a working-class family in show business.

However, her early years were everything but idyllic. Sally claimed in her memoirs that she was abused by her stepfather and that, when she was seventeen, she had a covert abortion.

Still, she proved to be such a kind, modest person.

As of right now, Sally is still going to work every day. In the 2020 television series Dispatches From Elsewhere, she portrayed Janice. She will play Jessie Buss in the widely watched television series Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty in 2022, which depicts the personal and professional life of the Los Angeles Lakers in the 1980s.

It is therefore not surprising that Sally occasionally appears in interviews given how active she is.

After a fan asked a pointed question, beloved icon Sally Field opted to share her worst on-screen kiss with the world on Thursday, Dec. 1 episode of “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.”

Upon hearing the question, Field, 76, looked around and laughed, saying, “Oh boy.” Do I really need to name names here?

“I believe you should,” 54-year-old Cohen answered.

Field gave in and said, “All right. This is going to surprise you. Hold on, people.

The Oscar-winning actress accused actor Burt Reynolds, her ex-boyfriend, of being the guilty party.

Cohen asked, “But weren’t you dating at the time?” with prompt follow-up.

Field clarified that she was required to “look the other way” when filming “Smokey and the Bandit.” This, according to her, “just wasn’t something he really did for you.”

“Isn’t that something?” Cohen asked, seeming shocked.

The actress continued by saying that Reynolds did a lot of “drooling” while they were on screen together.

While filming “Smokey and the Bandit,” the two co-stars got to know one another in 1977. They dated for almost five years after that.

According to the New York Post, Reynolds discussed his friendship with Field in his memoir But Enough About Me. Reynolds tragically passed away at the age of 82 from cardiac arrest.

The celebrity said he regretted their time together and wished he had done more to try to mend their relationship.

Field gave Variety an explanation in March for why she had stopped communicating with Reynolds throughout the last 30 years of his life.

She went on, “He was not someone I could be around.” “He was simply not a good fit for me at all. Additionally, he had somehow created the illusion that I was more significant to him than he had previously believed, even though I wasn’t. All he wanted was the thing that he was without. Simply put, I didn’t want to handle that.

Because of how popular the show was, Joan appeared on its spin-off, Knots Landing. a program that was actually written prior to Dallas.

Joan was then forced to play the same part in Dallas instead of joining the Knots Landing cast.

The person who mattered the most to her in all the world was this.

“When the producers told me they had finally last someone to play my mother, I held my breath,” she recalled in a 1984 interview with Florida Today. “I thought, ‘Oh my God, are they going to say Phyllis Diller or Zsa Zsa Gabor, or who?’ Then they said it was Julie Harris, and I went right through the roof.

Ted [Shackelford] is the other half of every breath I take on the show, and personally, he’s a large part of my heart. The people are my family–we have shared marriages, deaths, and divorces. It’s far more difficult to leave than I thought.” Joan thereafter appeared on The Young and The Restless as Gloria Fisher.
