Former supermodel Tyra Banks has been dropping truths all week as the co-host of Today with Jenna & Friends. Her latest shocker is that she has a “disgusting and erotic” secret addiction.
Banks sat down with Today host Jenna Bush Hager, revealing her habit of picking, popping, and scraping things off her family members’ fingers and toes, per Entertainment Weekly. "I like to pick,” she admitted.
“I like the toe, and if it has some stuff in it, I don't mind digging it out," Banks told Hager. "But I have a kit. You have to have a kit. Some alcohol, you know. Some stuff!"
When asked by Hager whom she’s cleaning, Banks revealed that her immediate family members get the most attention, but it's not limited to just them. "Anyone that wants it” she explained.
“My mom [Carolyn], my friends, my man [Louis Bélanger-Martin], my son [York]. If you had a pimple, I would be staring at you," Banks admitted.
She called these habits an “addiction,” saying they are both “disgusting and erotic at the same time. However, she does draw the line at some extractions.
“Chest up and knees down? It's on. I'm not popping and picking nothing [outside of] there,” she claimed.
The crew of the Today fourth hour was audibly shocked as the America’s Next Top Model host revealed that there is a downside to her addiction. "Sometimes they stink," Banks said of cleaning someone’s feet.
On July 29, Banks shared a bit too much information about the way she keeps her home clean after eating snacks. She admitted to eating the crumbs that fell into her bed, and onto the floor, even i they are a couple of days old.
“A few days if it’s not super perishable. Like popcorn? I mean, come on,” Banks admitted. “That’s like astronaut food. It just lasts forever. You just pick it up. I’m not joking.”
Banks is co-hosting the fourth hour of Today all week, through August 1.
