Tyra Banks Said She Eats Old Bed Crumbs for This Reason—and Jenna Bush Hager Was Speechless

Tyra Banks Said She Eats Old Bed Crumbs for This Reason—and Jenna Bush Hager Was Speechless originally appeared on Parade. Crumbs in bed are a universal struggle. Most people wipe them off, shake out the sheets, and swear to never eat Doritos under the covers again. But not Tyra Banks. On Today with Jenna & Friends, the 51-year-old supermodel casually revealed she deals with crumbs... by eating them. Days later. During the Monday, July 28 episode, Banks sat alongside host Jenna Bush Hager and shared her nightly routine: hanging in bed with her mom, Carolyn London, snacking on ice cream and popcorn while watching TV. But when Bush Hager, 43, mentioned she avoids eating in bed because of the crumbs, Banks didn't hesitate: 'The great thing is like a couple days later…' Without skipping a beat, the NBC star said, 'No, you do not! A couple days later you get down in there and…?' 'I do!' Banks replied. 'And you know, Jenna, I clean crumbs by eating them. Because if you put them in the trash, I'm like 'It's gonna get roaches or something.' So you just clean it up with your finger. Or you just like eat it.' 🎬 SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox 🎬 That led to laughter from behind the cameras and more follow-up questions. Like… what if the crumbs are on the floor? 'If it's on your ground! That's your feet,' the Life-Size actress said. 'I have [a] no-shoe rule in my home so that I can eat off my floor. No, but I'm serious, I do do that.' She added, 'It's not a two-second rule, it's not a 10-second rule, it's like a minute rule.' 🍳 SIGN UP to get delicious recipes, handy kitchen hacks & fun food news in our daily Pop Kitchen newsletter 🍳 Banks even said the 'rule' applies long after the crumbs fall. 'A few days if it's not super perishable. Like a popcorn? I mean, come on. That's like astronaut food. It just lasts forever. You just pick it up. I'm not joking.' Would she eat food from her bed a week later? 'Yeah, if I knew it was mine in my bed, yeah.' Bush Hager could only respond with a wide-eyed, 'Oh my god, Tyra,' before cutting to commercial. Banks is co-hosting Today with Jenna & Friends for the full week of July 28 through August 1.

Trolls say woman's OTT bed is ‘giving tacky' & ask ‘where do you sleep?' but people explain it's ‘traveller culture'

HOW do you make your bed in the morning? Some opt for nothing more than the pillows they sleep with and their duvet while others prefer to add a few extra decorative cushions and maybe even a throw. 2 But this woman has gone all out with her bed, but some online trolls reckon she has taken it too far. Scarlett Masson took to TikTok to show off the bed in her caravan home and the clip soon went viral, racking up a whopping 6.9 million views. In the viral clip, Scarlett showed what her bed usually looks like before all the extra flourishes are added. She started with a cute fitted sheet with a pink bow print before adding the matching duvet on top, not forgetting to tightly tuck in all the edges. Next she places a huge satin bed throw diagonally across the bed for a touch of luxury. But she didn't stop there, four plump pillows went on to the bed, followed by three huge matching cushions. Another two pillows were then added in front with the same cute bow design, and then another four cushions. By the end of the clip, the cushions came right to the foot of Scarlett's bed. And although there was no denying the bed look comfortable, not everyone was sure it was worth all the effort. One person commented: "The way more pillows kept appearing is taking me out." I'm a gypsy girl - my mum gets up at 4am to clean her chalet "I'm so overstimulated," a second quipped. And a third wrote: "Babe there's nowhere to even sit on that thing, why is it dome shaped?" "I'm sorry but every time you added stuff I laughed harder girl," someone else commented. But others thought the reason for the elaborate bedding was because of Scarlett's traveller roots. In a comment liked by Scarlett, they explained: "For those confused, travellers (or those from a decent) decorate their beds almost as a show piece and as a statement! "Obviously they don't sleep like this but it's essentially the same way you guys make your bed but with more pillows." Meanwhile, others praised Scarlett's OTT design as one wrote: "It's very cute." And someone else said: "You know what, if that makes you feel comfy and cosy in your own home then hell yes. "They're cute af and the mattress topper looks like a cloud." Traditions in the gypsy/traveller communities Nomadic lifestyle: Traditionally, many travellers maintain a nomadic lifestyle, living in caravans and moving frequently. This mobility is a core aspect of their identity, reflecting a deep connection to freedom and independence. Strong family bonds: Family is central to traveller culture. Extended families often live and travel together, providing a strong support network. Marriages and social events are significant community affairs, reinforcing familial ties. Distinct Language: Many travellers speak Shelta, also known as Cant or Gammon, a distinct language that mixes elements of Irish, English, and other languages. This language serves as a cultural marker and a means of private communication within the community. Religious practices: The traveller community often follows Roman Catholicism, with religious festivals and milestones like baptisms, communions, and weddings being particularly significant. However, individual beliefs and practices can vary widely. Unique celebrations: Events such as horse fairs and traditional weddings are major social gatherings for travellers. These occasions are marked by elaborate preparations, vibrant attire, and communal participation.

How I Learned to Be a Muslim Father

My wife Mira and I had been waiting for this moment for months, but it wasn't so easy. The birth of our son Musa, in 2021, took almost 24 hours. After what felt like an eternity, our baby suddenly flung himself out, past the hands of the nurse, through the air and onto the bed. He literally bounced. I couldn't believe what I saw, but there was no time to take it in. The cries of our son filled the room, and the tension evaporated, replaced by relief. As the room settled into calm, I performed a ritual that Muslim fathers had done for their newborn babies for generations. I whispered the Athan, the Arabic call to prayer, into Musa's delicate ears: 'I testify that there is no God but Allah, and that Mohamed is the messenger of Allah.'
