Sarah Michelle Gellar celebrated friend Selma Blair’s birthday over the weekend with a steamy throwback photo from their “Cruel Intentions” days.
Gellar took to Instagram with a photo of the pair’s infamous kiss in the 1999 teen drama.
“I may not be able to spend your birthday with you, but that won’t stop me from sending kisses,” she wrote. “Happy Birthday @selmablair.”

“I love you so much. Thank you my forever friend,” Blair commented on the image, which had more than 100,000 likes as of Tuesday morning. The actress turned 47 on June 23.
“This kiss defined a generation,” wrote one fan in response.
“One of my top 10 favorite movies!! This kiss was everything!” wrote another.
“Iconic,” said another.
In the film, Kathryn Merteuil (Gellar) — the movie’s main villain — teaches Blair's character, Cecile Caldwell, how to French kiss.

The two actresses have long been friends and were spotted on a trip to Disneyland together in March.
At certain moments during their outing, Gellar was seen pushing Blair in a wheelchair, per the Daily Mail, possibly due to the actress' multiple sclerosis, an incurable disease that affects the body’s central nervous system. Those with MS can experience numbness or weakness in one or more of their limbs and also suffer from a lack of coordination or an "unsteady gait," among other symptoms, according to the Mayo Clinic.
The “Legally Blonde” actress first revealed her MS diagnosis in October.
