Zoe Saldaña is recalling her first kiss.
While Emilia Pérez star Saldaña, 46, spoke with W Magazine for the outlet’s best performances of 2024 interview series, the actress said that her first kiss “was with a girl” while reflecting on her celebrity crushes, experience making her Spanish-language Netflix musical and life as a Gemini.
“I must have been 13 or 14. I was that girl who said, ‘Let’s play house.’ And that’s why I wasn’t invited to play at people’s houses!” Saldaña said of her first kiss. “So I was already kissing a whole bunch of girls by the time I was 13, 14. Girls are such better kissers.”
Saldaña’s reflection on her first kiss came after she told the outlet that her celebrity crushes as a child included singers Prince and Annie Lennox. “There was just something androgynous about them,” she said of the pair. “I love a woman who’s masculine and a man who is feminine. I find that to be really sexy.”
