CAMERON FINDS WAY AROUND SELF-IMPOSED KISSING BAN

Christian actor KIRK CAMERON forced movie bosses to cast his wife CHELSEA as a smooching stand-in for his new film FIREPROOF, because he refused to kiss his onscreen wife.
In the movie, Cameron plays a firefighter battling to save his marriage to his wife, played by Erin Bethea.
But the 37 year old had made a vow to Chelsea - his wife of 17 years and the mother of his six children - that he would never kiss another woman on or off-screen, so she was brought onto the set for a romantic scene.
Cameron, a partner in evangelical Christian ministry The Way of the Master, explains, "In Fireproof, there is a romantic and touching scene where he (character) kisses his wife.
"Because I have a commitment not to kiss any other woman, my wife Chelsea came in to the set and wore the dress my character's wife wore. We shot the scene in silhouette, so when I kiss my wife, I'm actually kissing my wife and honouring our marriage.
"It's a personal commitment I have made to my wife."
