Milo Ventimiglia’s career has been full of swoon-worthy moments, from his role as Jess Mariano on Gilmore Girls to the lovable Jack Pearson on This Is Us.
In 2009, he played Fergie’s tattooed lover in the music video for her solo track, “Big Girls Don’t Cry. Fergie told Entertainment Tonight in 2017 that Ventimiglia taught her how to kiss onscreen during the shoot. “I just had to tell him, like, ‘Please help me with this. I wanna just try to be in the moment, if you could help me,’” she shared. “’I don’t wanna be thinking about where’s the light and where’s the camera because I’ll just completely be hidden under hair.'”
Ventimiglia went on to share some steamy scenes with another pop star, Jennifer Lopez, in the 2018 film Second Act. He revealed to Us Weekly in 2018 that he didn’t have much time to prepare for his shirtless scene post-lather.
“I’d gotten off a plane, a red eye, to get to work on my first day and they told me, ‘Hey, it’s the scene post-shower and you’ll have your shirt off and you’ll walk across the room to get your shirt,'” he shared. “And I went, ‘Oh, OK.'”
