Tommy Lee's wife Brittany Furlan reveals he only showers 'once a week', fans call him 'gross'
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Brittany Furlan is not losing sleep over the fact that her rockstar hubby Tommy Lee only hits the shower just once a week.
The former Vine star dished all about her husband’s unconventional hygiene routine during her recent appearance on the 'Off the Vine with Kaitlyn Bristowe' podcast.

“It’s funny because the guys that I’ve dated before him were very messy, and that’s a big yucky for me,” Brittany Furlan admitted. “I’m like, so clean. My house looks like a f*****g museum. My husband’s very neat, which people wouldn’t expect from someone who’s a musician. They would expect him to be a f*****g nightmare, like, dirty. He doesn’t shower a lot, but he’s very neat.”
Brittany, 38, didn’t hesitate to spill the details, revealing that Tommy, 62, is “not big on the showers” because of his Greek roots. According to the Motley Crue legend and Brittany, bathing daily just wasn’t a thing in his Athens upbringing.
“He said growing up, that that’s a thing in Europe. You don’t need to shower every day,” Brittany explained. “They would just do the white washcloth if they felt like they were getting a little funky. My husband showers, like, once a week.”
When Tommy does skip a proper shower, he reportedly opts for a “bird bath.” While this low-maintenance routine might leave some cringing, Brittany insisted she doesn’t mind—though her habits couldn’t be more different.
“This hair is so thick so I wash the hair like once a week,” she shared, adding, “and then I shower every night.”
Brittany even joked about how her obsessive cleanliness might be overkill. “I’m so ‘overly clean’ that I’m probably stripping my body of all the oils it probably needs,” she said.
Internet reacts to Brittany Furlan's claims about Tommy Lee
Despite Tommy Lee’s less-than-daily hygiene routine, Brittany Furlan isn’t bothered. When asked if she ever gets the “ick” from her rocker husband—a sudden wave of repulsion people sometimes feel toward their partner—her response was rather gushy.
“No, because he’s so handsome. It’s really crazy,” she said. “He’s a really good-looking guy. He doesn’t really give me the ick.”
But the internet wasn’t as forgiving. Many social media users found Tommy’s shower habits downright cringe-worthy.
“‘I don’t shower because I’m Greek.’ No, Tommy. You don’t shower because you’re nasty,” one X user quipped.
Another chimed in, “I’m sorry but that’s gross—you need to shower daily—that’s just gross.”
“He looks dirty,” one commenter wrote, while another simply said, “That’s just nasty.”
Some people couldn’t wrap their heads around Brittany’s candor. “Why would she admit this? Gross,” one baffled user remarked.
"I don't shower because I'm Greek."

Opposites attract
Beyond their mismatched shower schedules, Brittany Furlan revealed that she and Tommy Lee are also on completely different daily routines. She described herself as a “night owl” who thrives creatively in the late hours, while Tommy is up and at it by 6:30 a.m. every morning.
But despite their differences, the couple—who tied the knot in February 2019—has a solid system for staying connected. They make it a point to have dinner together every night, phones off, fully present.
“We sit and talk, no phones, and we just talk about our day,” Brittany said. “Every day is like a little date night.”
Brittany has been vocal about how Tommy treats her like a queen. Last year, she told People that her relationship with him was unlike anything she’d experienced before.
“He just does all these really sweet things, and I’ve never had anyone do that for me before,” she said. “I can’t believe now when I look back on all of the bad relationships that I was in.”
Tommy has had his fair share of high-profile relationships in the past. He was married to Pamela Anderson from 1995 to 1998, with whom he shares two sons — Brandon, 27, and Dylan, 26. Before that, he was married to actress Heather Locklear from 1986 to 1993, according to Page Six.
As for what’s on the horizon, Tommy and his Mötley Crüe bandmates are gearing up for a Las Vegas residency at Dolby Live at Park MGM, with 11 shows scheduled for March and April of next year.
