Drew Barrymore Lets Co-Hosts Smell Her Feet on Live TV & Critics Feel the Cringe

Drew Barrymore recently found a creative way to make a conversation about self-care and hygiene more interesting. While discussing the importance of washing and exfoliating your feet, 50-year-old Drew decided to use her own feet as an example. On the Tuesday, October 7 episode of the Drew Barrymore Show, her co-hosts, Ross Mathews and Sunny Anderson, sniffed her feet.

Both of Drew’s co-hosts told their audience that Drew does not have “stinky feet” because they had already smelled her feet before. But when Drew took her shoe off and smelled her own foot, her co-hosts decided to sniff it too just to “double check” that it smelled good.

Sunny said Drew’s foot smelled like “a whole lotta nothing,” while Ross said it smelled “just great.” According to Drew, “there’s no scent there whatsoever.” Explaining how she achieves this, Drew said that she washes her feet once a week. Still, when Sunny said experts are “begging people to prioritize washing their feet” and a photo of dirty feet appeared on the screen, Drew said the feet in the photo looked like her feet. “My feet are dirty, but they don’t smell,” she explained. They also surveyed their audience to find out how often people wash their feet, and apparently, people’s habits are in line with what experts recommend — though Drew doesn’t actually believe that’s the case.

The majority of people in the audience said they wash their feet every day, but Drew was skeptical of the results and called those who weighed in “liars.” Meanwhile, 2% of people said they never wash their feet. One person named Annie said washing her feet seemed like a “waste of water.” The conversation later took an unexpected turn.

Reacting to those who say they never wash their feet, Sunny warned that experts say you should actually scrub your feet on a daily basis. She also said, “I can tell y’all ain’t got y’all toes sucked, that’s what I know for sure.” After the topic came up, Drew had some questions about who actually enjoys toe sucking.

“By the way, who does get off from the toe sucking though?” Drew wondered. “I’ve had it done to me and I’m like, ‘Should I pretend like this is turning me on? Because this is stupid!'” She also explained that she doesn’t actually want to watch it happen because she doesn’t like “looking at their faces with my foot in their mouth.” Um… ok.
