Even a multiple murderer has tender moments, as Christopher Meloni
discovered playing an inmate on HBO's gritty prison drama Oz. Serving out
the show's final season, Meloni jokes that a recent kiss with costar Lee
Tergesen "was sweeter than honey, softer than velvet-nothing but pure joy
with a 5 o'clock shadow."
But their lip-locking, which started in 1998, did take some getting used to. "We're old hats at it now, but that first kiss, we were so keyed up," says Meloni, 41, who also costars on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. "We looked at each other like, 'Let's just do it.'" So did his wife, Sherman, offer any helpful advice? "She suggested I shave my legs," Meloni says. "But I didn't think Lee would be running his hand up and down my leg." © People
