Nigerian movie actress and social media content creator, Sophia Chisom, who is better known as Soso, has said actors are supposed to engage in onscreen kisses solely for professionalism and not to seek pleasure.
The actress stated this while reacting to the complaint by some actors that they have never had a good kiss in the movie industry.

Speaking in an interview with TVC, Soso said it is difficult for any male colleague to get a good kiss from her because she doesn’t involve her tongue during onscreen kisses.
She explained that she often closes her teeth and uses just her lips when shooting a kissing scene, stressing that she’s very conscious of who she exchanges saliva with.

“I don’t know if people kiss with their tongues, but I do not kiss with my tongue. My teeth are always closed during kissing scenes, so it is just the lips. But because it is an act, we have to make it believable.
“Some people kiss with their tongues, but I don’t think it is okay to swap saliva with every single person that you shoot with. Besides, it is a job. So whenever I see a colleague complaining that they didn’t get a good kiss, it is weird. You are not supposed to get a good kiss; it is a job,” she remarked.
