Tyra Banks reveals 'disgusting and erotic' obsession
The America's Next Top Model host - who is in a relationship with Louis Bélanger-Martin and has nine-year-old son York with former partner Erik Asla - admitted she also enjoys "picking" dirt from behind toenails and is happy to help most people with such issues, though she won't get too intimate with her extraction duties.
Speaking during her guest co-hosting stint on Today with Jenna and Friends, Tyra admitted to Jenna Bush Hager: "I like to pick. I like the toe, and if it has some stuff in it, I don't mind digging it out.
"But I have a kit. You have to have a kit. Some alcohol, you know. Some stuff!"
Jenna asked: "Who are you doing that to?
Tyra replied: "Anyone that wants it — my mom, my friends, my man, my son.
"And then, a pimple? If you had a pimple, I would be staring at you. I want it so bad — like, I just love it."
The 51-year-old model confessed her habit is an "addiction" and noted it is "disgusting and erotic at the same time" because "it touches those parts" of her.
She added: "You know what I'm talking about, people!"
Jenna then asked Tyra to clarify if there's anywhere she deems off limits.
She said: "Nether regions. I'm not picking up in those. If somebody's like, 'Oh, can you check this?' I'm like, 'No, that's where I draw the line.' Chest up and knees down? It's on. I'm not popping and picking nothing [outside of] there...
"God, I wish you had a pimple."
The SMiZE and DREAM founder went into further detail about her habit and insisted she doesn't even mind when the feet "stink".
To audible groans from the crew, she said: "Sometimes they stink. 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 colorus. Sometimes it's brown, sometimes it's green.
"Come on, you guys know this!"
Earlier in the week, Tyra revealed another of her gross habits - eating crumbs she finds in her bed.
She said on the show: 'I love to get in the bed with my mom and watch TV. We do ice cream in bed, popcorn in bed.
'But the great thing is that a couple days later… I clean crumbs by eating them, because if you put it in the trash, I'm like, 'You might get roaches or something.' So just clean it up with your finger and eat it.'
She admitted she does the same if she finds food debris on the floor, though she does have some limits.
She explained: 'A few days if it's not super perishable Like popcorn? C'mon. That's like astronaut food, it lasts forever. You just pick it up. I'm not joking.'

Passenger's plane rant with flight attendant backfires online
A passenger is being ripped online for unloading on a flight attendant who allegedly busted him vaping on an American Airlines flight. Self-described pickleball coach Peter 'Kobe' Nguyen from the US posted an Instagram video of their verbal volley hoping to garner sympathy, but this backfired horribly when commenters sided with the crew member. In the clip, shot in the aftermath of Nguyen's alleged bathroom E-cigarette session, the passenger is heard accusing the unnamed air hostess of opening the lavatory while he was inside. 'I was actually sitting on the toilet and you were opening the door,' declared the flyer, before apologising to the flight attendant. 'I don't care,' she replied. 'You can keep saying you're sorry but I care about all these passengers.' That's when the crew member notes that Nguyen is 'recording' her and attempts to snatch his phone away. 'You're not allowed to do that,' protests the pickleballer, who describes himself as a 'celebrity pickleball coach,' 'AI expert' and 'agent,' on his Instagram bio. Things escalate after Nguyen accuses her of assault. 'She put her hands on me,' he yells. 'I am a lawyer.' He proceeds to repeat the assault accusations, which the flight attendant vehemently denies. Nguyen then threatens to sic his social media fans on her, declaring, 'I have 25,000 followers that are going to watch this'. 'Do you want me to release this or do you want to say sorry to me right now?' inquires the irate traveller. The beleaguered flight attendant capitulates and apologises, but Nguyen doesn't appear appeased and even threatens to 'call the police' on her when they land. 'You do not put your hands on a passenger,' he repeats. Then, turning his attention to the camera, he declares, 'This flight attendant assaulted me.' In a follow-up post, Nguyen wrote that 'American Airlines customer service' had called to tell them they were conducting an 'internal investigation' of the incident and that 'similar instances had happened in the past'. 'Justice is about to be served,' he declared in the caption. Commenters weren't exactly on board with Nguyen's digital pity party. 'What a sorry attempt to portray yourself as a victim,' scoffed one critic. 'Stop vaping in the airplane, case closed.' 'So disappointed this video doesn't end with this 'sorry' excuse for a gentleman being escorted away by security,' said another. 'No flight attendant should have to deal with this, no fly lists exist for a reason.' Nguyen was also ridiculed on Reddit with one poster writing, 'someone please develop an app that lets you punch somebody through your phone.' 'I was just waiting for him to throw in the MY DAD IS RICH,' said another. 'He's an insufferable pos, and unfortunately, he's not the only one,' lamented another, bemoaning the alleged rise of entitlement in the social media age. 'So many people these days feel empowered by the fact that they have an audience of individuals watching them on some stream.' They added, 'The whole influencer/follower paradigm that's been brought on by these stupid phones and apps like TikTok is going to make these types of videos all the more frequent.' The Federal Aviation Administration currently prohibits vaping on planes — an infraction that can result in a $US1,771 ($A2700) fine.

Influencer who dropped OnlyFans account on day of her 18th birthday makes $1.6m
A Gen Z influencer who went viral at nine years old for her foul-mouthed antics, claims to have made $1.6m after joining OnlyFans the day of her 18th birthday. Rapper and content creator Lil Tay was thought to be rage baiting followers when she told male fans that she would be dropping the link to her OnlyFans the minute she legally became an adult. Men had been counting down to her birthday and she teased the release by tagging conservative American commentators like Ben Shapiro and Michael Knowles. However, when her birthday rolled around last week, Lil announced she was the 'youngest girl on OnlyFans' and began promoting content reportedly recorded at 12.01 that morning. She's since claimed that she made A$1.6m in her first three hours on the X-rated platform, saying, 'We broke the f**k out of that onlyfans record'. A screenshot of her earnings showed that just over half of the income came from subscribers who paid A$30 to follow her content, while the remainder came from direct messages. 'For all the grown haters who've been hating since I was nine years old, look at me now,' she said in a video shared on social media. 'What y'all got to say? Y'all been doubting me for seven years. You can hate me all you want — you can't say Lil Tay ain't winning. 'Oh yeah, and thank you to all my supporters who pre-ordered since 2018, or whenever you did.' Many of her followers were shocked she went through with the creation of the account. '$1,000,000 worth of people who need they hard drives checked,' one person said, while another agreed, ' who bought it should be arrested.' A third said, 'Pls tell me this is a joke.' Others have been raising questions about her age as when Lil Tay rose to fame in 2018 she was supposedly 9 years old, which would make her about 16 in 2025. In 2023, she was involved in a death hoax where her social media accounts claimed that both she and her half brother had died. She later came out to say this was not true, but she was reported at the time to be 14 years old. OnlyFans has a strict 18 years and over policy for both content creators and followers. The platform asks for a person's address, government-issued identification card and bank account information as part of its age verification process. 'You must be at least 18 years old to create an account and access content on the OnlyFans platform as a Fan or as a Creator,' the website states. 'It is against our Terms of Service and our Acceptable Use Policy for anyone who is under 18 years old to view, access or post content on OnlyFans. We invest heavily in technology and human moderation teams to make sure this policy is followed. If anyone seeks to get around these policies and controls, OnlyFans will take appropriate action against them.'

Catherine Zeta-Jones hails 'amazing' Jenna Ortega
Catherine Zeta-Jones thinks Jenna Ortega is "amazing". The 55-year-old actress stars alongside Jenna, 22, in the new season of Wednesday, and Catherine has praised her co-star's professional approach to their sword fight scene. She told People: "We did rehearse it. It's like choreography and stunts. "You know, we have to be careful. These are real weapons we're working with." Catherine observed that Jenna made time in her busy schedule so that they could prepare properly for the scene. The actress - who plays Morticia Addams on the hit Netflix show - said: "She'd find time in her schedule, which is a much bigger schedule than mine, to come and rehearse with me, and then we worked it with the stunt coordinator, and it turned out really fabulous." Catherine has also praised Luis Guzman, who plays Gomez Addams, for his pre-shoot preparations. The duo teamed-up to perform a tango, and Catherine revealed that Luis "just really worked hard". She shared: "We used to rehearse the four scenes outside, dodging the rain, sometimes in Ireland, in gravel to keep it every day, to keep it fresh. Because, of course, we learned it at the beginning of the show. We weren't shooting it for weeks, three months later. So to keep it fresh and to remember our moves every now and again, we just jump together and we do it. And we laughed." Meanwhile, Jenna previously revealed that she became an "unhappy person" after season one of Wednesday. The actress plays Wednesday Addams in the Netflix show, but Jenna initially struggled to cope with the pressures of fame and success. She told Harper's Bazaar magazine: "To be quite frank, after the show and trying to figure everything out, I was an unhappy person. "After the pressure, the attention - as somebody who's quite introverted, that was so intense and so scary." Jenna now serves as a producer on Wednesday and she's loving the experience of having a hands-on role with the show. Jenna - who has become one of the most sought-after stars in Hollywood in recent years - said: "I sit in on meetings and listen and learn. I'm still finding my footing in that area."
