Kelsea Ballerini, Lauren Alaina + More Share Their First (and Worst) Kissing Stories
You see, he was underwater and — OK, maybe we'd better just let her tell the story.
Jerrod Niemann's is gross. Granger Smith's is ... concerning. Chase Rice has some real beef with an educator that did his best to interrupt what was sure to become a magical moment. Joe Nichols spit after his first kiss. Literally, he spit. The girl was not amused or forgiving.
Let's face it, we've all been awkward when faced with life's greatest of great mysteries: the opposite sex. Like throwing a baseball, playing guitar and riding a bike, kissing takes practice. No one is good at it the first time!
But is everyone as bad as Kelsea Ballerini?
Watch to see these stars confess their first and worst kisses, plus one from ToC's Ania Hammar. It involved band camp and — well, it involved band camp. Do we really need to say anything else?
Pucker Up! Now These Kisses Look Alright!
