neutral  Sp-EnTranslator: Más de acuerdo con beso en la boca. Difícilmente podría considerarse un beso en la boca entre Britney Spears y Madonna como amoroso o apasionado; en todo caso lascivo.

  -> Creo que eso depende de cada uno, Claudia, y sobre todo del contexto. A mí me suena que al elegir esa expresión, el autor agrega al simple "beso en la boca" algo de humor o ironía. Si no, habría bastado con "kiss". Será decisión de Maru...

beso en los labios


Explanation:
Pero no lo traduciría así, porque en inglés no le está dando énfasis a largo ni a apasionado.

Creo que sería mejor decir:
"...por haberse besado en los labios con Madonna"

agree  Roxanna Delgado: Si, hay que recordar que en este contexto eran dos mujeres besándose, y el beso no fue largo, ni creo que apasionado.

un beso boca a boca


Explanation:
en este contexto, tratándose de dos mujeres archiconocidas por demás, de quienes no se espera que se den un beso en la boca, el énfasis del "boca a boca" aumenta la dimensión y extravagancia del hecho sin que se pierda el sentido original.

suerte.
