Kiss and tell.

“Saturday Night Live” alum Laraine Newman called the late OJ Simpson a “good kisser” during Tuesday’s episode of “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.”

While playing a game of “Work the Polls” with host Andy Cohen, Newman — along with other “SNL” stars Cheri Oteri, Ana Gasteyer, Cecily Strong and Rachel Dratch — were asked whether athletes made “good” hosts on the NBC sketch comedy show.

“Any of you there when OJ hosted?” Cohen asked the group of ladies to which Newman raised her hand.

The late-night TV show host then questioned whether the late football star was a “good host” to which she also responded, “And a good kisser.”

“We did a parody of a movie that is so horrifyingly objectionable, ‘Mandingo,’” the “Coneheads” actress, 72, recalled of their steamy moment.

Cohen, 56, quickly clarified the 1975 film about a Louisiana plantation owner’s son having an affair with a slave “wouldn’t play today.”

Back in February 1978, Simpson hosted a Season 3 episode of “SNL” with musical guests Ashford & Simpson. At the time, the athlete was at the height of his career and playing in the NFL.

However, the football star quickly fell from grace in June 1994 when he was accused of fatally stabbing his second ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her close friend Ron Goldman.

After a highly publicized trial, the famed athlete was acquitted of the murders. However, in 1997, OJ was found liable in a civil wrongful death lawsuit and ordered to pay Nicole and Goldman’s families millions.

Page Six exclusively reported last year that Goldman and Nicole’s families never received the full amount of money, as OJ had allegedly been running a ring of all-cash business dealings to hide proceeds.

In April 2024, OJ died from prostate cancer. He was 76.
