“Downton Abbey” star Rob James-Collier says it’s easier to kiss a man onscreen than a woman
Remember when Will Smith couldn’t handle kissing another guy in the movie Six Degrees of Separation way back in the mid-1990s?
Well, Rob James-Collier would’ve went for it with gusto!
“I find it easier,” he said this week on The Jonathan Ross Show. “The way I was thinking was that if you kiss a girl you worry about, one, how big is her boyfriend? Two, is he in the building watching and is he going to kick the shit out of you? And three, what is my missus going to think of it?”
He also joked about his wife’s reaction to his on-screen kissing with a man.
“So we went to the [British Film Institute] for a big unveiling on the cinema screen and the missus knew it [the kiss] was coming, and we were all sitting watching it and I thought Nice one, she can’t accuse me of anything, and the missus turned to me and said ‘You’ve never kissed me like that.’”

James says:
I agree. It’s a lot easier for me to kiss a man too. In fact, I’ve never even kissed a woman!

Hello, Mr. Hernandez.
Allow me to correct your syntax. You say “….Rob James-Colier would’ve went for it with gusto!” No, he would have GONE for it with gusto.

Does anyone really care about Will Smith’s opinion on this issue. I am sure he has done it in private.

Right you are Peter. There are still some of us who remember how to speak proper English!
Joe says:
Oh my….the grammar police are out. :-[
LOL @ James’ comment!
Oh, and Will Smith is a homophobe.
Greg Hernandez says:
Good for you Donald for remembering to speak proper English. Now can you also remember to not have a Stitt fit if some of us are not as perfect as you?
