The story of Jennifer’s Body is compelling, but the moment when Amanda Seyfried and Megan Fox have a passionate kiss stands out.  After the film’s release, Seyfried said this was her favorite moment, praising the genuine and powerful connection between herself and Fox.

“Jennifer’s Body is my favourite movie that I’ve done…I can’t believe nobody wanted to see Megan Fox and me hitting it. They had an extreme close-up of our tongues, and I’m telling you, the thing about the scene is that it’s actually really sexy”

The movie had difficulty breaking out because of some variables, such as its marketing and the number of other recent releases. The success of a film at the box office does not always indicate its cultural significance.
