All it took was one kiss and Mario Lopez knew he was in love with Courtney Mazza!

The newlyweds are celebrating New Year’s Eve as the hosts of the NIVEA Kiss Stage in New York City, and they exclusively told Breaking Celebrity News about their sizzling first kiss that led to love, a baby and a wedding!

“We kissed for the first time in Times Square,” Mario fondly remembered to Breaking Celebrity News. “It was a great kiss, and I definitely knew she was someone special!”

His new wife Courtney said that she’s not afraid to be affectionate with her hubby anytime, anywhere.

“Mario is a great kisser, and obviously with us being on TV everyone can see how much we love each other!”

The Extra host actually proposed on New Year’s Eve last year, and they’re looking forward to celebrating again this year.

“We definitely know how to kiss,” he said, but they aren’t going to be giving the NIVEA Kiss of the Year Contest winners any pointers.
