Any one that starts a brand new job calls their parents, especially mom, to share the excellent news, but Melissa Rauch’s first day on The Big Bang Theory left her mother more mortified than proud. The actress, who joined the sitcom in 2009 as Bernadette Rostenkowski, quickly became a fan favorite, but her first day on set didn’t go as easily as expected.
Melissa Rauch’s Unexpected Mishap On Set
Rauch, because it seems, unintentionally earned herself a little bit of a popularity after a hilarious misunderstanding during a scene. While filming a scene in a hotel room bed, the actress, who’s known for getting cold under covers, instinctively warmed her hands together like a boy scout starting a hearth, an motion that, on camera, looked a bit more suggestive than she intended.
After the scene aired in front of a live studio audience, the director and producer pulled her aside, suggesting that her hand movements appeared “way too very similar to she was having fun with herself” under the covers.
Melissa Rauch Previously Opened Up About The Embarrassing Experience
The Latest Jersey-native opened up about her embarrassing experience on set during an appearance on Late Night with Conan O’Brien in 2013. “The primary episode of the season I had a bit…incident,” she explained. “We were shooting a scene and I’m in a hotel room bed. And in my very own personal life, each time I get under covers, I’m all the time really cold.”
Rauch added, “So I just are likely to pull the covers up really high and just leave my head out after which I type of like warm up my hands like I’m a boy scout starting a hearth with sticks or something. So I’m under the covers and it’s really cold on set, because they keep it cold and I’m under there and we’re shooting the scene and – out of habit – I’m doing this (rubbing hands together) under the covers,” the star continued. “We shot the entire scene, there’s a studio audience.”
The actress went on, “And after the scene was over, our director and producer got here over to me they usually were like, ‘We want to see your hands in the subsequent take – it looked such as you were having way an excessive amount of fun with yourself under the covers’. Then after the show, we were we take our bows and I used to be talking to some people within the audience and this little boy said to me, ‘Did you shoot that scene again along with your hands out since it looked weird? Because my dad said it looked real weird.’”
Melissa Rauch Called Her Mother To Explain The Mishap
Naturally, The Big Bang Theory star called her mom to clarify the mishap, only to be met with a fair more mortified response. Her mother, clearly concerned, couldn’t understand why her daughter would do something so inappropriate on set and expressed worry over the potential profession consequences.
“She asked me how the primary episode went and I told her and he or she was mortified,” she said. “She’s like, ‘I hope people understand that you just weren’t really doing that, that’s disgusting! People have been fired from that, people have lost their careers for doing that in movie theatres!’”
Melissa Rauch continued, “She’s so upset about it. So now every week I just carry on saying, ‘Uh, something else happened at work…’ And she or he’s like, ‘Stop doing that! You probably did it again? It’s enough, keep your hands to yourself!”
