Kissing Allison Janney

January 22, 2021 Blind Gossip

[Blind Gossip] Esteemed actress Allison Janney has worked on dozens of movies, but is probably best known for her roles on several different TV series.

She played CJ Cregg on the political drama The West Wing, starring Martin Sheen.

She played Margaret Scully on Masters Of Sex, starring Michael Sheen.

And, most recently, Janney played Bonnie Plunkett on the sitcom Mom, starring Charlie Sheen.

Wait. Sorry! We were hoping for a Sheen trifecta there, but that hasn’t happened yet!

Janney’s costar on Mom for the past seven years has actually been Anna Faris.

Although Allison Janney is talented enough to have won an Academy Award (for I, Tonya), a British Academy Film Award, seven Primetime Emmy Awards, and seven Screen Actors Guild Awards, not everyone want to get close to her!

Allison Janney was a guest on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Thursday night.

She told Jimmy a story about a male costar who was hesitant about kissing her in a scene.

By the way, this event apparently happened before the current world health crisis.

I had a scene partner who I had to kiss.

He was such a germaphobe he would put Neosporin on his lips and ask me to put it on mine, too, before he would kiss me!

Jimmy Kimmel laughed at this anecdote. Janney continued.

It really just kind of unnerved me. You know, people are germaphobes.

Kimmel then jokingly asked Janney if her partner was Howie Mandel, who has OCD and is known to be an extreme germaphobe.

Janny laughed at the reference but declined to identify her scene partner.

While not part of this blind item, Janney mentioned that she actually enjoys getting tested on the set on a regular basis!

She calls the testing “the mid-nose swirl.”

Everyone laughs at me, but I really love the way it feels!

I’m just like, “Can you keep doing it a little longer?”

Janney then compared the testing procedure to a puppy getting scratched in just the right place.

It’s like a puppy getting scratched or something.

It relaxes me, I don’t know.

[Optional] Have you been tested? What kind of test? Was it as enjoyable and relaxing as Janney describes?

    Jon Cryer.

    I’m in the Moderna study, I’ve been tested 4 times. The second time it was 3 different kind of swabs. The first was a cotton swab, the second had tubing at the tip and the last one felt like a bristle/mascara wand. Super unpleasant and caused my eyes to immediately water. I’ve had the first vaccine, different side effects than Pfizer, a very robust immune response. I’ll be glad when I get the booster shot, although I’m not looking forward to it.

    I was in a car crash and intubated (unconscious, so I don’t remember it)… but I remember being EXTUBATED (when they take what feels like 10 feet of something – I was too confused to know – like piping – out of you). You gag constantly while it never seems to end. Look it up… awful. Anyway, when I heard the Covid test was bad, I thought of that. Then I got tested and thought “and that’s what all the fuss is about?” And thankfully, I was negative.

    Shemp Howard.

    (We can rule out Charlie Sheen, as he IS a germ, not a germaphone, and wasn’t a costar anyway. )

    Yes, I was tested for Covid-19 and did not have it. It was with the smaller swabs, thank Venus,or else I would have been shrieking and hopping around like a jumping bean. (Much like Sheep, I have several phobias, and having a ginormous swab stuck up my nostrils until it touches my brain is one of them.)

      Geez, stupid spell check! My comment should read, “much like SHEMP,” not “Sheep,” (baaaaahloney!) although for all I know, sheep may have a lot of phobias, too.)

    I’m going to guess Martin Sheen? It can’t be Charlie Sheen. I can’t imagine someone taking unregulated substances, and sleeping around, being a germaphobe.

    Optional: I’ve never been covid tested.

      He must go thru a case of Neosporin, then, because that’s what they DO on ‘Mom’ – kiss, kiss, kiss…..I am waiting for the vaccine. I hardly leave the house, wear a mask, wash my hands, use hand sanitizer, and see very few people.

    No idea who this is. I’ve been tested twice. First time was way up the nostrel. Not fun. Second time was front of each nostrel and was easy peasy.

    Mark Harmon
    West Wing

    Tested once, and that was enough. The nurse administering it had a wonky eye and actually hit the swab further up my nose!

    I dont know who the co star is but extreme germophobes irritate me to no end. A good friend of mine is and BEFORE covid she hated hugging people, and would not let you kiss her on the cheek. She freaked out when my husband touched her wine glass. I hate how these people now feel justified lol 😆 had three covid tests so far, two nose, one throat, all horrible. Nose is better slightly.

    Haven’t a clue who is the germaphobe?

    Been tested twice, once up the nose and I cried for an hour, it was horrible.
    Once around the throat area and that wasn’t bad.
    Both times negative. Would like to get the vaccine (old enough) but supplies seem to be running out. Since I’ve basically hibernated for more than 10 months, a few more weeks will be tolerable.

    Given all the Sheen references, I will say Jon Cryer from Two and a Half Men.

    Yes. I was tested over the summer.

    It was very uncomfortable for me. The nurse walked me through it and, once we got through the worst part, she told me that it would have to stay there for 15 seconds. I breathed a sigh of relief. Then she told me that we’d have to repeat the process again on the other side. I died a little inside.

    I hated the test so much, I haven’t gotten another since. However, I avoid going out in public as much as possible. I have everything delivered as well.
