Nov 8, 2024 · 7:24 PM Blog

Dax Shepard shared his honest reaction when it comes to his wife, Kristen Bell’s kissing scene with her co-star, Adam Brody in the hit Netflix project, Nobody Wants This. He talked about it during the New Yorker Festival on October 26.

Shepard told the crowd that he and his best friend, Aaron watched that scene with one another, which he argued was the “best kissing scene ever” put in a movie. He shared that his friend asked him if Bell had ever kissed him the way she did onscreen in the series. To this, he said, “No, I didn’t even know she could kiss like that.”

According to Life and Style publication, an insider revealed that there was some reality to what Shepard said. The source shared that the scene “got to him” and he experienced jealousy. The insider further added that it was fortunate that the couple is in a “good place now,” but Bell is “getting a kick out of Dax’s discomfort.”

In a previous interview with E! News, the actress talked about her husband’s reaction to her steamy scenes with Brody. She discussed that the intensity of the onscreen dynamic took her by surprise as well, citing that it took confidence and efforts for the creation of romantic tension that was believable.

The Good Place star shared that when she and her husband watched the first episode, Shepard expressed that he wanted her to kiss Brody very badly.

The actress also discussed about the intimate scene being not that easy to achieve. Bell told the outlet that there are two actors who are aware of how to “stare dopily” into one another’s eyes and one has to have the “confidence” to elaborate that and sit with that anticipation before the kiss.

After the release of Nobody Wants This, the series quickly went viral on social media, where many netizens started discussing the show’s plot, its romantic lead, and the chemistry that they had with each other.

The show was released on September 26, 2024, and it stars Adama Brody, Kristen Bell, Justine Lupe, Emily Arlook, Timothy Simons, Jackie Tohn, Sherry Cola, Tovah Feldshuh, Stephanie Faracy, and many more.

Poll Panel’s Warning Amid Row Over Uddhav Camp Leader’s Shaina NC Comment

Nov 8, 2024 · 7:24 PM Blog

Chief Election Commissioner Rajiv Kumar has condemned political leaders remarks against women and directed officials to deal sternly with violators, news agency ANI said Friday.

Sources told ANI Mr Kumar’s reaction came during a review meet with district poll officers, municipal commissioners, and police chiefs before the November 20 Maharashtra election.

The Election Commission had earlier directed political parties and candidates to refrain from deeds, actions or utterances that will be repugnant to the honour and dignity of women.

Mr Kumar was reacting to controversy over comments by Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Arvind Sawant about Shaina NC, a BJP leader who joined the Shinde Sena faction to contest the election.

Mr Sawant’s comment was in response to a reporter’s question about Ms Shaina’s chances; she will contest the Mumbadevi seat that has been held by the Congress’ Amin Patel since 2009.

Responding to his remark, she said, “I am not some ‘maal‘ (goods). I am a daughter of Mumbai… this is a crass comment by Sawant. I am a ‘mahila‘ (woman) (and) everyone knows the Maha Vinash Aghadi (a play on the opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi coalition) does not respect women.”

She also slammed her rival – Amin Patel – for smiling at the remark. “Arvind Sawant called me ‘imported maal (goods)’ and Amin Patel was smiling. Would he have made this remark for his sister or wife?”

“I want to ask Uddhav Sena about Sanjay Raut’s statement… that there is no need to apologise because I am ‘imported’. Mr Raut, if you don’t have any objection… it shows your mentality!”

Mr Raut had said, “There has been no insult. Arvind Sawant just said Ms Shaina had come from outside (and) if she is ‘imported maal‘, how is this an insult to women?”, and pointed out that similar jabs have always been levelled against Congress veteran Sonia Gandhi.

Mr Sawant later claimed that he had a good equation with Shaina NC and she may have misunderstood his comment. “It refers to ‘goods’, but she could have misinterpreted it. I had no such intentions,” he said. A police case has been registered against Mr Sawant.

The row was also picked up on by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who this week attacked the Congress-led INDIA bloc, of which the Sena (UBT) is a member, for its silence in the matter.

The opposition used “foul language” against a woman leader”, Mr Modi said in speech in Jharkhand, where too an election will be held this month.

“Mothers and daughters are in shock (and the) people will teach them a lesson,” he declared, also attacking the Congress for “humiliating” Sita Soren, the sister-in-law of Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren and a BJP candidate.
