Linda Gray: Hagman's kisses were filled with gross surprises

Linda Gray, who portrayed Sue Ellen Ewing in 'Dallas,' is participating in the 'Ladies of the '80s' auction on August 12, offering scripts and personal items. She reminisced about co-star Larry Hagman, who played J.R. Ewing. Gray revealed Hagman's aversion to kissing scenes, often employing practical jokes to circumvent them. She described kissing him with peanut butter or onions in his mouth, turning romantic moments into comedic ones. Hagman's pranks extended to on-set antics, such as singing inappropriate songs with Patrick Duffy while Gray was in a hospital scene. Gray also shared her initial impressions of Texas, noting the distinctive fashion and even the surprising presence of firearms in women's purses. The sale of her 'Dallas' items is seen as a way to share memories with fans who remain connected to the show.
