Gina Gershon recently reminisced about filming a love scene with Tom Cruise for the 1988 movie 'Cocktail,' describing Cruise as a 'gentleman' during the intimate moment. Gershon, 62, revealed that it was her first love scene ever and praised Cruise, also 62, for taking care of her and being respectful throughout the filming process.
During a segment on 'Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen,' Gershon shared an amusing anecdote about warning Cruise not to tickle her during a scene due to her ticklish nature. She recounted a moment where she accidentally kneed Cruise in the nose when he playfully grabbed her stomach, causing her to panic that she had injured him. However, Cruise reassured her and took full responsibility for the mishap.
Gershon expressed gratitude for Cruise's protective and considerate demeanor on set, mentioning how he made sure she felt comfortable and covered up during filming. Despite their on-screen chemistry, Gershon playfully dodged a fan's question about whether she and Cruise had a real-life romantic relationship, hinting at their mutual respect for Cruise's then-wife, Mimi Rogers.
The conversation also touched on Cruise's personal life, highlighting his past marriages to Mimi Rogers, Nicole Kidman, and Katie Holmes. Gershon, known for her roles in 'Showgirls' and 'Bound,' shared insights into her own dating history, including relationships with Belgian entrepreneur Robert Dekeyser and actors Travis Fimmel, Owen Wilson, and John Cusack.
Notably, Gershon humorously referenced a past denial of any intimate involvement with former President Bill Clinton. The article also briefly mentioned recent dating rumors surrounding Cruise and singer-songwriter Victoria Canal, which Canal dismissed as unfounded.
