Deaux Moi, one of our favourite sources of unverified celebrity gossip and grainy papshots have recently been delivering true service journalism – sharing anonymous reviews of celebrities who are good (and bad) kissers.

So far, three carousel posts have appeared on the page featuring anonymous fan ratings. Big names like Paul Mescal, Ben Affleck and Michael B Jordan have appeared on the list and some celebs have had to come to defend themselves. American actor and model Rome Flynn was described as “the worst kisser in the world.” Flynn, who is currently being considered for The Fourth Wing adaptation jumped in the comments writing “gimmie another chance I was just nervous 😞.”
It’s high stakes and the Deaux Moi list has left us wondering a) will we have our first celebrity bad kisser defamation case? And b) which other celebrities are highly rated kissers?
Below, we investigate.
Celebrities Who Are Good Kissers

Paul Mescal
Paul Mescal might run away from one night stands but apparently he’s an excellent kisser. “My cousin, experienced Paul Mescal said it was the best kiss she ever had, nightclub 6 years ago,” wrote the source. Fans can breathe a sigh of relief.

Zayn Malik
One Direction fans won’t be surprised, apparently GiGi Hadid’s ex Zayn is an excellent kisser, there are just “vibes” to go with it. “Zayn Malik was a phenomenal kisser but he was also very distant and kind of awkward the next time we hooked up, he literally left me laying staring up at a brick ass ceiling. Gorgeous apartment. Hot guy. Great kisser. Seemed sad lol,” wrote the anonymous reviewer.
Poor Zayn.

Blake Lively
Penn Badley said his Gossip Girl co-star Blake Lively was his best on-screen kiss. But, she was also his worst. “I’d say best… I’ll say it was Blake because we actually had a relationship at the time. And worst… Maybe Blake after we broke up.” So fair.

Anna Kendrick’s glowing kiss review came from none other than Blake Lively’s husband Ryan Reynolds. In 2014 a fan asked Reynolds over Twitter what it was like to kiss Kendrick after the two had starred together in The Voices. “Like taking your face to Awesometown,” Reynolds responded. Kendrick jumped in and added: “That IS the Kendrick-train guaruntee. With local stops in Awkwardville and Tolerableshire.” We assume the kiss has got only more “Akwardville” since Kendrick and Lively became Simple Favour co-stars.

Michael B Jordan
In 2021 images of Sinners heartthrob Michael B Jordan kissing his Journal for Jordan co-star Chante Adams went viral and now we know he’s bringing passion to his off-set encounters as well. “Can confirm – Michael B Jordan is an incredible kisser!” one lucky fan wrote.
“Whoever kissed Michael B Jordan, girlll you are so lucky!” wrote one user.

Ben Affleck
Affleck received a solid 10/10 and you know what, we’re not surprised. He might have a habit of being caught in the wrong moment with an iced coffee from Dunkin Donuts and bad taste in tattoos but there’s got to be a reason his exes keep going back to him.
In 2016 his ex-wife Jennifer Garner stopped short of saying she’d go back to him (or that he was a good kisser). “He’s the love of my life. He’s the most brilliant person in any room. The most charismatic, the most generous. He’s just a complicated guy,” Garner told Vanity Fair. We can only hope our exes would give similarly glowing reviews.

Cate Blanchett
Apparently two-time Oscar winner Cate Blanchett is also winning awards for her kisses. The actor has become a low key Sapphic heartthrob on Instagram got a simple “Cate Blanchett – great kisser.”

Jimmy Fallon
We’re filing this under “wouldn’t have guessed it or thought about it” but allegedly, Jimmy Fallon is “good.”

Robert De Niro
Sharon Stone kissed a lot of A-list actors in her time as the 90s favourite screen siren and she revealed that De Niro was the best. In an episode of Watch What Happens Live she said her Casino co-star Robert De Niro was “the best kisser” and that she held him in “extraordinary high regard.” “Robert De Niro was for sure the best kisser. Bob was far in a way the best kisser.” Incidentally the interview was with fellow good kisser list member Andy Cohen.

James Marsden
Marsden is allegedly “very passionate” according to one anonymous Deaux Moi smoocher.

Andy Cohen
We’re filing Cohen under the same category as Fallon but apparently the Real Housewives producer “knows how to use his tongue.”

Waterparks musician Awsten Knight received a glowing review with the lucky fan writing that he was “the guitar skills translate when it comes to his hands.”

In 2017 Zac Efron said that his kiss with Zendaya in The Greatest Showman was his favourite on-screen makeout. “This might be my favourite kiss, I think ever,” he told People, “the tension between them is so strong, and literally, just a glance between them is electric.” We should all be so lucky.

Thomas Doherty
Scottish actor and singer Doherty is doing his country proud. The source wrote: “Can I add Thomas Doherty to the list of insanely good kissers? The world needs to know.”

Michael Phelps

Tom Cruise
Paula Patton described her kiss with Tom Cruise in Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol as a welcome “surprise.” “It’s not the best, but it was great,” she said in an appearance on Live with Kelly and Ryan. “Ha had amazing breath. It wasn’t minty. It was just perfect.”
