'Barbie' star America Ferrera says her guilty pleasure is 'not showering for a few days'
  • The "Barbie" cast tested how well they all know each other in a new video interview.

  • At one point, America Ferrera said her guilty pleasure is "not showering for a few days."

  • Issa Rae, Margot Robbie, Kate McKinnon, and "Barbie" director Greta Gerwig were shocked by her revelation.

"Barbie" star America Ferrera has admitted that she sometimes doesn't shower "for a few days."

In a Vanity Fair video interview published on Wednesday, "Barbie" director Greta Gerwig and four of the movie's stars took part in a game where they asked each other questions about their lives to test how well they know one another.

At one point, Ferrera asked Gerwig and costars Margot Robbie, Kate McKinnon, and Issa Rae to guess her secret guilty pleasure.

The cast guessed different types of food before Gerwig speculated that it was not food related.

Gerwig then said: "Oh, I bet a massage or something. Self-care? Is that a guilty pleasure or the same thing?"

McKinnon then suggested that Ferrera looks at the real estate website Redfin and fantasizes "about other lives."

Rae asked if it was "being away" from her children and family.

Ferrera finally answered: "No, I don't feel guilty about any of those things, but my guilty pleasure would be... I'm going to really regret saying this... It's not showering for a few days."

Gerwig and Robbie expressed their shock at the answer, while Rae turned away from her. McKinnon just nodded, repeating, "Yeah."

Ferrera is not the first celebrity to admit to her bathing habits.

In 2021, Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis told Dax Shepard on his podcast "Armchair Expert" that they don't bathe their children every day.

"Now, here's the thing: If you can see the dirt on them, clean them. Otherwise, there's no point," Kunis said.

Shepard's wife Kristen Bell also admitted that she "waits for the stink" before washing their daughters, and Jake Gyllenhaal told Vanity Fair that not bathing every day helps his "skin maintenance."

However, their comments were quickly met with disapproval from fans and even some celebrities.

Dwayne Johnson tweeted that he is "the opposite of a 'not washing themselves' celeb" and shared his own routine.

"Shower (cold) when I roll outta bed to get my day rollin'. Shower (warm) after my workout before work," he said. "Shower (hot) after I get home from work. Face wash, body wash, exfoliate and I sing (off key) in the shower."

Jodie Turner-Smith, Jason Momoa, Cardi B, and Terry Crews were also in the camp of celebrities that bathe or shower regularly.

"Barbie" is in theaters on Friday.
