Tyra Banks admits to ‘disgusting and erotic’ habit she has that ‘touches those parts’ of her
Tyra Banks made an admission that many people probably wish she'd kept private as she spoke about a 'disgusting and erotic' habit that she struggles to resist.
Banks has been extremely candid about some of her less hygienic habits in recent days, kicking off earlier this week with the revelation that she eats days-old crumbs from her bed after chowing down on snacks, while watching TV with her mom, Carolyn London.
The initial admission came during her July 28 appearance on Today with Jenna & Friends, where she said she was a 'messy eater' and explained: "I clean crumbs by eating them, because if you put it in the trash, I’m like, ‘You might get roaches or something.’ So just clean it up with your finger and eat it.”
Social media users were quick to point out that they 'definitely didn’t need to know this', but Banks was back and oversharing once again in a new episode of the show on July 31.

Co-host Jenna Bush Hager spoke about how the 'crumbs' comment 'really got some pickup', to which Banks agreed before confirming once again, "I'm about to disgust you."
She then proceeded to talk about a couple of other habits she has. If you're eating right now, I advise you to take a quick break.
Having already admitted she likes to clip people's toenails, Banks said she was getting a 'reputation' for being a 'gross person'.
She then continued: "I like to pick. I like the toe. And if it has some stuff in it, I don't mind digging it out. But I have a kit. You have to have a kit. So you have to have, like, some alcohol or some, you know, some stuff."
The model explained she'd be happy to dig into the toenails of 'my mom, my friends, my man, my son', before adding: "And then a pimple. Like, if you had a pimple, it would be staring at me the whole time time."
Bush Hager then asked: "What would be your mental track? What would be going on in the brain?"
Banks responded: "I want it so bad. Like, I just love it."
When asked if she'd ever watched shows like Dr. Pimple Popper, Banks admitted she tries to draw the line where she can - even if it is hard to resist.
"I don't watch it too much because it maybe, like an addiction," she said. "It's disgusting and erotic at the same time. It touches those parts of you."
I don't know if you needed the image of Banks picking toenails or squeezing pimples today, but it's too late now. You're welcome.
