1.1297365-3584168013 — Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis: The Hollywood star couple shocked fans when they revealed in a recent podcast that they rarely bathe their children or themselves. The ‘Bad Moms’ star grew up in the Ukraine said: “I didn’t have hot water growing up as a child, so I didn’t shower much anyway. But when I had children, I also didn’t wash them every day. I wasn’t that parent that bathed my newborns – ever.” Her actor-husband was on the same page, adding: “Now, here’s the thing: if you can see the dirt on them, clean them. Otherwise, there’s no point.” The pair also admitted they don’t like to bathe very much. “I wash my armpits and my crotch daily and nothing else ever. I got a bar of Lever 2000 that delivers every time. Nothing else,” said Kutcher. His wife and actress Kunis revealed that she washes her face twice a day but doesn’t shower on a regular basis.

Jake Gyllenhaal — Jake Gyllenhaal: This Hollywood actor has an unconventional take on bathing and believes it’s an exercise in futility. "More and more I find bathing to be less necessary, at times … [I] think that there's a whole world of not bathing that is also really helpful for skin maintenance, and we naturally clean ourselves,” said Gyllenhaal in an interview with Vanity Fair. He’s equally perturbed by loofahs. “I always am baffled that loofahs come from nature. They feel like they’ve been made in a factory, but, in fact, it’s just not true. Since I was young, it’s amazed me. More and more, I find bathing to be less necessary,” he added. Image Credit:
