Zoe Saldana revealed that her first kiss was with a girl.
The actress, 46, said W Magazine She was 13 or 14 years old when the kiss occurred.
“It was with a girl,” he said. ‘I must have been 13 or 14 years old. I was that little girl who said, “Let’s play house!” And that’s why they didn’t invite me to play in people’s houses.
“So I was already kissing a lot of girls when I was 13 or 14. Girls are better kissers.”
Zoe, who has been nominated for a Golden Globe for her role in Emilia Pérez, also talked about the celebrities she liked as a child.
“The Prince and Annie Lennox,” he said. ‘There was something androgynous about them. I love a woman who is masculine and a man who is feminine. I find that really sexy.’

Currently, the actress has been married to Marco Perego since 2013 and they share three children: twins Cy Aridio and Bowie Ezio, 10 years old, and Zen Anton Hilario, eight.
Zoe, who has extensive ballet experience and even starred in the dance film Center Stage, has been trying to get her children into ballet too.
‘I’m trying. I’m not going to give up. Studies have shown that it is very therapeutic for men to practice any form of dance at a very young age or throughout their lives because it carries a lot of tension and emotion.
Their efforts have yielded mixed results.
‘At least my twins are tapping. My youngest son doesn’t give a damn who’s dancing.
‘He wants to be Cristiano Ronaldo; wants to be Lionel Messi. But my twins are like, “Hey, are there girls there? Are they dancing hip-hop?” And they will dance.
Zoe was 11 when she started learning ballet and dedicated herself to it for the next 10 years.
“I did it for 10 years vigorously, sometimes six hours a day,” he said.
Dancing became a source of comfort for Zoe, whose father died when she was nine years old.
The actress, who is attracting Oscar attention for her role in Emilia Pérez, is among the many celebrities gracing her exclusive covers for W’s Best Performance issue.
For her cover, she channeled old Hollywood glamor in a vintage-inspired ensemble complete with gold jewelry.
‘Ballet became my therapy, my medicine, my confidant, my comfort at a time when I was going through a lot.
‘My father passed away when I was 9 years old and my mother went through a really difficult time. There were days when he couldn’t get out of bed because he was so sad.
‘When you’re 9, you don’t really understand that, but she knew she needed to keep us busy. So I started ballet and went full throttle because I needed to.’
While Zoe never became a prima ballerina, she ended up showing off her dance skills in the 2000 film Center Stage, where she played a ballerina studying at an elite ballet academy.
“I was plucked from the up-and-coming young acting scene in New York City in the late ’90s, and that was incredible,” he said. “I had been part of an episode of Law & Order and some commercials, and I was auditioning like crazy because the casting directors in New York are so fucking great. When they believe in you, they believe in you. The Center Stage casting director was still calling me
