Justin Timberlake and Ryan Gosling had a bet on who would kiss Jessica Simpson first

While appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Jessica Simpson didn't hold back revealing personal stories from her colourful past.

Promoting her new memoir Open Book, Jessica, 39, recalled a time when she was a finalist for the Mickey Mouse Club at age 12.

The businesswoman wasn't picked to be in the show, which starred names like Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Justin Timberlake and Ryan Gosling.

And when speaking of her would-have-been co-stars, Jessica mentioned that years later her and Justin shared a kiss when he was over at her house.

The mum-of-three candidly told Jimmy: "We shared a nostalgic kiss and he took out his phone and started typing."

She added: "And apparently he and Ryan Gosling had a bet on who would kiss me first when they were 12 years old."

But despite locking lips with Justin, Jessica revealed she was actually interested in Ryan at the time.

"Ryan was the one where I was like, he is cool and he’s from Canada and I don't know where that is on the map but that was cool."

She continued sharing details of her not being picked for the dream role as a child, telling the audience she was told she needed some acting lessons before auditioning again.

She said: "I did go to the finals but they said i needed acting lessons. In Dallas, apparently Chuck Norris is the person to go to. Yes, he was my acting coach."

Before adding: "I was 12 years old, so 1992. Basically he said I had too many expressions on my face.

"I was destined to get a Razzie."

She hilariously revealed that in a bizarre bid to get Jessica to stop moving her eyebrows too much while acting, Chuck taped both of them during their lessons.

Jessica recalled: "Chuck saw one of my tapes and he said i moved my eyebrows too much, and he had me do lines with tape on my eyebrows.

"He told me to channel my inner Denzel Washington... Apparently Chuck Norris is very serious about eyebrows."
