“I don’t know about a relationship on the side,” Gellar said, “but there was a steamy— I mean,Isaid it was steamy, but they probably didn’t think it was, hence it was cut….”
After hostAndy Cohenasked the actress to clarify what she meant, Gellar confirmed that there was a kissing moment between the two characters: “Kiss, yup, it got cut. It was an actual kiss between Daphne and Velma that got cut. I feel like the world wants to see it, but I don’t know where it is.”

Gellar dished further on aspects of the film that didn’t make it into the “family-friendly” final cut onWWHLThursday, including a scene between Daphne and Fred (Gellar’s real-life husbandFreddie Prinze Jr.) that implied Fred was gay.
“There was a great line, too, where I’ll never forget, we’re having a fight, Daphne and Fred, and then I yell at him, ‘And that ascot makes you look gay!’ and I slam the door. They cut that too,” Gellar shared. “I think it was the reason I actually signed on to the movie.”
“I know everyone’s thought for a long time… there were always implications about Fred being interested in both parties. They all got cut,” she added. “[The movie] was less family-friendly to begin with.”
Back in 2002, Gellar explained to SciFi Wire that the deleted kiss scene involved a scenein which the Mystery Gang swap bodies.
“Initially in the soul-swapping scene Velma and Daphne couldn’t seem to get their souls back together in the woods,” Gellar said at the time. “And so the way they found was to kiss and the souls went back into proper alignment.”
