Watch: Michelle Monaghan recalls filming Tom Cruise kiss on her honeymoon
June 12 (UPI) -- White Lotus actress Michelle Monaghan discussed what it was like filming a Tom Cruise kiss on her honeymoon when she stopped by The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon Wednesday.
Monaghan, 49, shared the story after Fallon congratulated her on her upcoming 20th wedding anniversary to husband Peter White.
The couple's wedding coincided with Monaghan's filming for Mission: Impossible III.
"My husband's Australian, so we got married in Australia, actually and we didn't have time for a honeymoon because we had to start filming, I think, three days later, so we flew back to LA," she said.
She recalled receiving her call sheet and seeing that her first day would require her to film "an intimate scene with Tom Cruise."
"I was so nervous about it," Monaghan said. "I get up at 4 a.m., I dart out of the hotel, I forget my key, of course. And I go to work, and I proceed to have the best day with Tom and J.J. Abrams, our director."
When she arrived back at the hotel that evening, her husband said "brush your teeth and tell me all about it."
"He looked at me and he grabbed my arms and he goes, 'How cool is it that you were making out with Tom Cruise on our honeymoon?'" she said. "... I married the right dude."
Monaghan recently starred in Season 3 of The White Lotus. She portrayed actress Jaclyn, who was vacationing at a luxury resort in Thailand with longtime friends Laurie (Carrie Coon) and Kate (Leslie Bibb).

7 Fruity Nail Ideas (With A K-Beauty Twist) To Brighten Your Day
If you're feeling a bit gloomy in the depths of Australian winter, why not look for inspiration from overseas to brighten your day? In Seoul, summer is in full swing, and there's a trend sweeping the city that could help boost your mood. Just ahead of my next nail appointment, I've been looking to my fellow subway commuters and their freshly painted tips for some inspiration, which is how I noticed that fruit motifs are everywhere. Think crisp watermelon slices, sparkly strawberries, and 3D peaches that almost look good enough to eat. Whether you're into whimsical designs or crave a more minimal take on the trend, there's a juicy fruit nail set for everyone. Peruse the seven examples below and get ready for your most delicious manicure yet. Apple Peel Nails View this post on Instagram A post shared by 🌼Melody Made🌼 (@ For a twist on the classic red mani, we love this crimson gradient with slices of golden yellow. The understated effect mimics the texture of an apple peel, without being too fruit-forward. Fruit Salad View this post on Instagram A post shared by 네일옐루 홍대네일 연남동네일 (@nail_yellu) With its candy-coated colours, cartoonishly rotund shapes, and glossy, syrupy glaze, this three-dimensional take on fruity nails feels perfect, especially when paired with crisp white linen. Sparkly Strawberries View this post on Instagram A post shared by 서대문, 충정로 더 네일 (@the____nail) If you want to highlight your favourite fruit, may we suggest this dazzling strawberry set? Painted over a neutral base and topped with metallic green stars, these are as sweet as it gets. Mix & Match Fruit View this post on Instagram A post shared by 미미네일 | 까치산네일 화곡동네일 강서구네일 신월동네일 (@_.miminail) If 3D glitter strawberries aren't your jam (pun intended), try a slightly less flashy — but no less fun — take with a daintier 3D fruit for a party on your nails. If you want to level up, mix and match your tips to include some solid colours and softer gradients among your fruit accent nails. Fruit Marbling View this post on Instagram A post shared by 네일유메온 | 빛가람동네일 | 나주네일 (@nail_yume.on) Figs, grapes, peaches, and plums: There's so much beauty right on the surface of these fruits, which is captured brilliantly in these artistic designs. Through a masterful combination of marbling techniques and meticulous speckling, these subtle nuances make for a truly unique mani moment. Grape Expectations View this post on Instagram A post shared by 네일누하🌱 서촌네일 경복궁네일 광화문네일 (@ Another fruity option that may appeal to mani minimalists is this reflective, wine-colored set, which shines in more ways than one. Speckled Watermelons View this post on Instagram A post shared by 일산네일 리턴핑크 일산교육지사 뉘앙스네일 키치네일 y2k네일 : 굽죠잉 대표원장 송혜림 (@goobjoying) Watermelons offer a refreshing break from traditional winter muted manicures. In a sea of standard watermelon slices and rind-striped designs, this abstract rendering offers a refreshing alternative.
