Kate Beckinsale’s first kiss was a “horrible experience.”
In a new interview, the “Underworld” actress told the story of kissing a man who had just eaten a meaty pizza beforehand.
A “militant vegetarian” at the time, Beckinsale said she was surprised to have kissed anyone after that.

“It was so bleak. I’m surprised I ever kissed anyone again. I was quite a late bloomer,” she said on “The Late Late Show with James Corden.”
“All my friends had done it. I thought, well, I'm going to have to kiss somebody, otherwise I'm weird,” the actress continued.
“I was at a party and the person who wanted to kiss me was American, of course. It led me on a terrible path I'm now stuck on.”

Beckinsale then spoke about the traumatic experience she encountered with meat.
“I was a really militant vegetarian at the time and he had just eaten a meat lovers pizza. Massive trauma,” she noted.
“I thought kissing was a dry experience but as it was happening I realized, oh, there's all that kind of wet activity inside the other person's mouth with lots of bits of sausages in as well.”
