During the appearance, she revealed that a former co-star (she did not identify the star) once asked her to apply Neosporin antibiotic ointment on her lips before their kissing scene.

“Even before COVID, I had a scene partner who I had to kiss with, and he was such a germaphobe, he would put Neosporin on his lips and ask me to put it on mine, too, before he would kiss me,” she revealed.

Allison explained that she wasn’t sure how to respond, but it didn’t feel great to get the request.

“I didn’t know [what it would do,] but I took it very personally, though. I thought, What does he think I put in my mouth? I don’t know. It kind of unnerved me, but people are germaphobes.”

She also confirmed it was not known germaphobe Howie Mandel.

“You might think so, but no, it was not Howie Mandel. I will not say who it was.”
