It’s one of the most famous kisses in movie history, but you won’t see Selma Blair and Sarah Michelle Gellar reenacting it anytime soon. Unless it’s done 2020 style.

The Cruel Intentions actresses were honored at the MTV Movie and TV Awards: Greatest of All Time taking home the Legendary Lip Lock award nearly 20 years after the film was released. At the 2000 MTV Movie Awards, the duo won the Best Kiss award for the iconic scene.
During their acceptance speech at the MTV Movie and TV Awards: Greatest of All Time, Blair said “I think the reason the kiss has resonated with people for so long is not just for the initial shock value.”
“But because it was a catalyst for so many young people to help them realize certain aspects of their sexuality and help make people comfortable to be who they really are."
“It also represented a paradigm shift to a new dynamic towards acceptance in pop culture. And also, it was super hot,” Gellar added.
The pair then told fans they were going to recreate the scene, “right here” as Blair said. As a soft piano track plays in the background lulling the viewer into a sense of romance, Blair and Gellar lean in for a kiss.
Then, because it’s 2020, the duo smack their heads into a plexiglass screen preventing them from locking lips.
It’s a perfect 2020 version of the Cruel Intentions kiss as Gellar then turned to the camera saying, “stay safe, MTV. And 2020, end soon.”
