Kirk Cameron: "I'll Only Kiss My Wife"

sfsd.JPG


In Kirk Cameron's new movie, "Fireproof," he has to kiss the actress playing his wife. That was a problem.

Cameron will not kiss any woman who is not his wife.

"I have a commitment not to kiss any other woman," the former child star of "Growing Pains" told Hoda Kotb and Kathie Lee Gifford Monday on TODAY in New York.

To get around the conflict, the filmmakers employed a bit of movie magic, Cameron explained. They dressed his wife, actress Chelsea Noble, like the movie's female lead and shot the scene in silhouette.

"So when I'm kissing my wife, we're actually husband and wife honoring marriage behind the scenes," Cameron said as Gifford and Kotb melted from the romanticism of the moment.

James, why do you say that?... (Below threshold)
Chad:

James, why do you say that? I'm just kind of curious. Mr. Cameron has had that policy for many years, it's not really a new thing. It may be a little "old fashioned" according to Hollywood, but I find it refreshing that he places such values before his contract. I think the use of sillohuetting his wife in as a "kissing double" was an inventive way to keep his promise to his wife, and get the movie done.

what a crock? get out of the business that calls for you to pretend then. guess that could be part of the reason he hasn't had much work lately.

Chad:

Cooter, that's exactly why he doesn't work much, he cares more about spending time with his family than doing things that don't fit with his morals. I find it admirable.

Chad:

Oh btw, he didn't even get paid for this movie, he had the production company give the money to a camp he started for disabled kids. He receives no money from the camp, so it's not some tax-free kickback scheme either. I think that's pretty classy behavior.
