Sylvester Stallone says he's protective of his daughters: 'OK, when you're trying to kiss her, it's like you're trying to kiss me at the same time'

Actor Sylvester Stallone, known for playing tough guys on the big screen, told the Wall Street Journal that he's close to his family and protective of his daughters. He indicated that if a boyfriend behaves inappropriately, it is like they have acted against him.

"I know how these guys think. I happen to have been one. It’s nature, but I want to let them know. I say, 'OK, when you’re trying to kiss her, it's like you're trying to kiss me at the same time.' I'm very connected to my family, so if you do something that's inappropriate, it's like you did it to me. And there’s going to be an issue and it's going to be a great deal of pain. I'm incredibly protective over my daughters, because I know it's a dangerous planet," he told the outlet.

The actor has three daughters who are each in their twenties.

Stallone, whose career has spanned decades, is known for films such as the "Rocky" movies and "The Expendables" series, the latter of which has a new installment slated for release later this year in Septmeber.

When the Wall Street Journal interviewer asked about the Rocky statue that Stallone left behind at the home music superstar Adele purchased from him and is renovating, Stallone noted that he had wanted to take the statue, but Adele did not agree. Stallone said that Adele said, "That's a no deal. That's gonna blow the whole deal."

"She wanted the statue," Stallone said, according to the outlet.

Actor Chris Pratt, who has young children, has said that he thinks all dads contemplate how they would respond if someone did anything to their kids.

"I think every dad secretly fantasizes about what they would do if someone ever f***** with their kids," Pratt told Men's Journal. "Your partner sees you staring off into the distance and says, 'Honey, what are you thinking about?' And you say, 'Oh, nothing.' But what you're really thinking is, Where's the duct tape and how deep is the trunk? I think that's most dads. Or maybe that’s just me and I'm revealing something here! But as someone who’s talked to a lot of dads, I think we all ask ourselves what we would do," Pratt said, according to the outlet.
