This week's addition (slightly later than I usually post, I know) comes from a recent film called The Kissing Booth from 2018. It stars Joey King as a student who goes through the usual trials and tribulations of school. In one particular scene she ends up wearing a skirt far too short for her because her pants have split, causing the whole school to gawp at her cheeky features, and leading to one student to run up and give her bum a good slap, ending in a school brawl. Panned by critics, it naturally proved popular with the public and subsequently spawned 2 sequels (so far).

As for Joey King (who was 19 when she filmed this), she started out as a child star at just 7 in 2006 in TV's Malcolm in the Middle before first finding fame in Ramona and Beezus in 2010. The Kissing Booth films saw her move seamlessly from child to adult roles, and she cemented her adult status in TV's The Act in 2019, not only shaving her head for the role but also performing her first ever nude scene and giving us a good look at just what that student in Kissing Booth got to slap. Naturally I have included a pic of that for you to judge for yourselves.
