Kirstie Alley rewarded "Dancing With the Stars" host Tom Bergeron with a smack on the lips Monday during the show's all-star premiere.
"Dancing With the Stars All-Stars" premiered Monday night one day after the 64th Annual Emmy Awards in which the show's host, Tom Bergeron, took home the award for Outstanding Host for a Reality or Reality-Competition Program. The honor is one of the top in television right now, and was celebrated by many of the "Dancing With The Stars" members.
No one, however, seemed as supportive of Bergeron's success as Kirstie did. The dancing star interrupted Bergeron mid-sentence in order to plant what appeared to be an impromptu kiss on the host's lips. She locked his face in place and held it for several seconds before she released him from her intimate gesture.
Also host of "America's Funniest Home Videos," Bergeron appeared surprised and unsure of what to do with the moment afterwards. The host settled on smoking a fake cigarette.
"Oh, thank you," he said as Alley screamed "That's for your Emmy!"
Bergeron is married, however, and some were skeptical of the star's outwardly affection.
"I doubt his wife appreciated it," Sue said on the Us Magazine blog. "Don't be kissing on someone else's husband, girl."
Despite her ability to put on show after dancing, it appears that Alley's dance performance itself was not quite up to par. Alley and her partner, Maks Chmerkovskiy, were not the lowest scoring couple, but may still have difficulty making it past Tuesday.
The lowest scorers were Pamela Anderson and Tristan MacManus, who managed only 17 out of a possible 30 points for their cha-cha rendition. Season 3 champ Emmitt Smith and his partner, Cheryl Burke, are currently in the lead. They scored 24 out of 30 points.
