Tyra Banks reveals “disgusting and erotic" addiction to pimple popping and toe cleaning

The 'America’s Next Top Model' host says she performs these rituals on "anyone that wants it".

Tyra Banks surprised viewers with a personal confession during her appearance on Today With Jenna & Friends.

The supermodel revealed her peculiar habit, saying, “I like to pick. I like the toe, and if it has some stuff in it, I don’t mind digging it out.” She added, “I have a kit. You have to have a kit. Some alcohol, you know. Some stuff!”

Banks described the behaviour as both “disgusting and erotic at the same time,” explaining, “It touches those parts of me.” When asked who she performs these rituals on, the America’s Next Top Model host didn’t hesitate. “Anyone that wants it — my mom, my friends, my man, my son,” she said, referencing her partner Louis Bélanger-Martin.

Despite her fascination, Banks admitted she has boundaries. “Nether regions. I’m not picking up in those. Chest up and knees down? It’s on.”

She went further, vividly describing the details: “The toenail, because there’s been stuff in there. The jam. The toe jam is up in the nail, and then you pick, and sometimes it’s different colours. Sometimes it’s brown, sometimes it’s green.”

Banks and Bélanger-Martin have been together since 2018 and reportedly moved in together in 2019.
