NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Drew Barrymore surprised her audience on Friday, October 8, on 'The Drew Barrymore Show' by openly discussing her foot hygiene habits.

During the 'Drew's News' segment, Drew Barrymore removed her shoe, pulled out her bare right foot, and smelled it, admitting, "They're dirty right now." She then asked co-hosts Sunny Anderson and Ross Mathews to lean in and smell her foot as well.

Co-host Sunny Anderson complimented Barrymore immediately, recalling she had smelled her feet once before and found them "divine." To verify the "dirty" foot, Anderson said, "Let me check."

Both Anderson and Ross Mathews leaned in for a close sniff, surprising the audience. Despite the gasps, Anderson declared the foot "smells like a whole lot of nothing. Yeah, that's what you want."

Drew Barrymore discusses not washing feet daily

The 'Charlie’s Angels' actor admitted she doesn’t wash her feet every day. She explained that in the shower, she simply lets water run over her feet without scrubbing them, a practice that doctors say may not prevent odors or infections.

Drew Barrymore reveals personal experiences with partners

Playfully defending her routine, Barrymore told viewers who claimed to scrub their feet daily, “You guys are liars.” She also added that she dislikes former partners who tried to suck her toes.

The conversation turned even more personal when Barrymore admitted she had partners attempt it, saying, "I’ve had it done to me, and I’m like, should I pretend like this is turning me on? Because this is stupid. And I hate looking at their faces with my foot in their mouth… No thanks!”
