1. Kirk Cameron
The Growing Pains star refused to kiss anyone other than his real-life wife, Chelsea Noble. During the filming of Fireproof, a body double was used for the kissing scene to honor his religious beliefs.
2. Neal McDonough
Known for roles in Desperate Housewives and Band of Brothers, McDonough has consistently declined intimate scenes due to his commitment to his wife and Catholic faith. He’s even lost roles over this stance.

3. Candace Cameron Bure
Like her brother Kirk, Candace has also expressed discomfort with romantic scenes. She’s known for setting boundaries in her Hallmark and Great American Family roles, often avoiding physical intimacy.
4. Denzel Washington
While not opposed to kissing scenes in general, Washington once requested a change in The Pelican Brief to avoid a romantic scene with Julia Roberts. He reportedly wanted to avoid perpetuating certain Hollywood stereotypes.
These decisions remind us that acting isn’t just about following a script—it’s about respecting personal values and boundaries. Directors often adapt scenes creatively, using camera angles, body doubles, or rewriting moments to honor these choices.
