Kip Moore, Dan + Shay and More Share Awkward, Hilarious First Kiss Stories
Some were awkward, some were sweet, some were terrifying ... and some stories were simply nauseating! Taste of Country asked more than a dozen different country artists to share their first kiss stories. The responses are captured in these videos.
Dan + Shay's Shay Mooney's first kiss involved a bus and a tuba, while Kip Moore's first kiss was in a closet and was very, very sloppy. Joe Nichols almost fainted, LoCash's Chris Lucas almost threw up, and Lindsay Ell almost married the guy! Okay, that's not true, but they did date and she does have the sweetest, most storybook story.
The Swon Brothers, Granger Smith, Brooke Eden and former Navy SEAL Pete Scobell are a few others we heard from. Love and Theft's stories were alarming, while Smith's involved Tom Cruise (it isn't as strange as you think).
These clips were shot during Country Radio Seminar, a yearly gathering of industry members and artists in Nashville. First kisses are a universal experience that typically involve sweaty palms, a heavy heartbeat and — in one artist's case — your best friend's older sister.
