Tyra Banks Unveils Her Most Shocking Habits: Toe Picking and Pimple Popping!

Tyra Banks has revealed she loves picking out toe gunk and popping pimples

Tyra Banks' GROSS Habits Exposed: Model Reveals She Eats Crumbs Off Her Bed and Picks at Toe Jam!

In a jaw-dropping interview on Today's Jenna & Friends, Tyra Banks has revealed some truly disturbing habits that will leave you speechless. The 51-year-old supermodel, who is currently guest hosting the show, shared with Jenna Bush Hager her love for picking at toe jam and popping pimples - and it gets even more shocking from there.

As if eating crumbs off her bed wasn't weird enough (more on that later), Tyra confessed to having a "kit" for removing toe gunk. Yes, you read that right - she has a special tool for digging out the gross stuff between her toes. And don't even get us started on her pimple-popping addiction.

The star admitted she struggles to contain herself at the sight of a blemish, and seemed truly disappointed Jenna did not have any for her to pick at

When Jenna asked who gets to enjoy Tyra's unique brand of foot care, the model replied with a nonchalant tone: "Anyone that wants it! My mom, my friends, my man, my son - anyone!" It seems like Tyra is more than happy to share her services with whoever is willing (or unwilling) to let her get up close and personal with their skin.

But wait, there's more. When Jenna asked what goes through her mind when she sees a pimple, Tyra replied: "I want it so bad... Like I just love it." She even went so far as to admit that it's an "addiction" - and one that she can't seem to shake.

"I don't watch Pimple Popper too much because it's disgusting and erotic at the same time," Tyra said, before bursting into a bizarre noise that left everyone in the room stunned. It seems like Tyra has found a unique way to combine her love of skin care with her own twisted desires.

Tyra's revelation even seemed to gross out the crew, who could be heard reacting in disgust to her toenail confession

But let's not forget about Tyra's other gross habit - eating crumbs off her bed. Yes, you read that right again. During a previous episode of Today's Jenna & Friends (Monday), Tyra revealed that she "cleans" leftover food by eating it. And when Jenna asked if she'd eat popcorn that had been sitting on her floor for days, Tyra replied with a straight face: "Yeah, if I knew it was mine in my bed, yeah."

It seems like Tyra's love of eating from her bed is just as much about convenience as it is about not wanting to throw away food. But we have to wonder - has she ever stopped to think about the germs and bacteria that might be growing on those crumbs?

Jenna was understandably horrified by Tyra's habits, gagging at the thought of eating popcorn from her bed a week later. "A few days if it's not super perishable," Tyra explained, as if she were talking about the most normal thing in the world.

The latest revelation comes just days after Tyra admitted she 'cleans' food crumbs leftover on her bed at her Sydney home 'by eating them'

Of course, this isn't the first time we've heard about Tyra's strange habits. Back in 2019, she revealed that she eats ice cream and popcorn right out of bed - and leaves it there for days. It seems like Tyra has a bit of a problem when it comes to keeping her bedroom clean.

And if you thought things couldn't get any weirder, just wait until you hear about Tyra's mom Carolyn London and her 9-year-old son York Banks Asla, who also share their mom's love of eating from the bed. "A couple days later," Tyra noted with a shrug, as if it were perfectly normal to leave food on your floor for a few days.

We have to wonder - what other secrets is Tyra hiding? And are her family members just as gross as she is?

Gagging, Jenna asked: 'A week later you would go and eat that?' Banks replied: 'Yeah, if I knew it was mine in my bed, yeah'

As one Twitter user @randirobson put it: "Disgusting! Would never eat in bed and then eat the crumbs later." We couldn't agree more.

And let's be real, folks - if anyone can pull off eating from their bed, it's Tyra Banks. After all, she did make history as the first African-American model to appear on the cover of Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit Issue back in 1996 (and again in 1997 and 2019). Who needs personal hygiene when you're a supermodel?

But don't worry, folks - Tyra still has four more days to gross out Jenna Bush Hager as she continues her guest hosting duties on Today. And if you thought that was all the news we'd get from Tyra this week, think again.

On the Jenna & Friends Instagram account, users were horrified like @randirobson who commented with a nauseated emoji: 'Disgusting! Would never eat in bed and then eat the crumbs later'

The model-turned-presenter is set to appear in an upcoming episode of HGTV's Celebrity IOU, hosted by the Property Brothers Drew and Jonathan Scott. And let's not forget about her Netflix docuseries about America's Next Top Model, which concluded back in 2018 after 18 seasons.

It seems like Tyra Banks has a reputation for being one of the most unique - and sometimes gross - personalities in the entertainment industry. But hey, at least she's keeping things interesting!
