Sure, Pierce Brosnan is an international movie star now, but back when he was a young teen, he apparently wasn’t such hot stuff. As the actor told Jimmy Kimmel on Thursday night, the girl who gave him his first kiss broke his wee little heart.
Carol, whom Brosnan described as “a lovely girl,” apparently did not see that she would be missing out on a relationship with a superstar. “I bet her husband wasn’t even James Bond once,” Kimmel said.
Brosnan is now appearing in No Escape alongside Lake Bell and Owen Wilson.
