Jake Gyllenhaal isn’t too keen on keeping clean by bathing himself on a consistent basis.
The actor said as much during an interview with Vanity Fair on Thursday while he was promoting a new fragrance that he is of the belief that showering every day is moot.
"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," Gyllenhaal explained when asked of his bathing ritual.
"More and more I find bathing to be less necessary, at times," he continued. "I do believe, because Elvis Costello is wonderful, that good manners and bad breath get you nowhere. So I do that. But I do also think that there’s a whole world of not bathing that is also really helpful for skin maintenance, and we naturally clean ourselves."
