It's funny when people call me a wh--- when I actually haven't had intimacy in a really long time, [or even thought] of kissing. I haven't even kissed someone in so long. It's, like, kind of crazy. I was thinking of this last night. Do I know how to kiss?" Nikki said on her "The Nikki & Brie Show."
