Jennette McCurdy constantly yelled at for her first kiss with Nathan Kress

Jennette McCurdy was yelled at again and again for her first kiss in iCarly with Nathan Kress.

Jennette McCurdy, a former Nickelodeon actress, remembered her unpleasant experience recording her first-ever kissing scene while playing a lead role in the popular sitcom.

In her brand-new memoir, "I'm Glad My Mom Died," McCurdy writes in-depth about her time playing Sam Puckett in "iCarly" and the spin-off series "Sam & Cat," both of which were developed by TV producer Dan Schneider.

McCurdy said in her autobiography that the encounter was both her first on-screen and real-life kiss.

The actor claimed that a man known only as "The Creator" yelled at her throughout filming, which added to her anxiety.

"Our lips are touching," McCurdy recalled.

"He's moving his mouth around a bit, but I can't move mine. I'm frozen. His eyes are closed. Mine aren't. Mine are wide open, staring at him. It's so odd, staring at a person while your faces are touching. I don't like it. I can smell his hair gel", she explained.

She continued, "'Move your head around a bit more, Jennette!' The Creator yells from off-camera."

McCurdy claimed that while she "honestly" attempted to comply with the request made of her, her body was "stiff" and "unflinching."
