On August 6, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson took it upon himself to announce that he showers regularly in a detailed explanation via his Twitter, after a recent social media discussion about celebrities and their bathing habits, or lack thereof.
When a user expressed that she’d be “heartbroken to find out if Johnson was ‘one of those stinky ones,’ Johnson was quick to reassure the world that he does not get down with the white folk ways.
The Rock said, “Nope, I’m the opposite of a “not washing themselves” celeb. Shower (cold) when I roll outta bed to get my day rollin’. Shower (warm) after my workout before work. Shower (hot) after I get home from work. Face wash, body wash, exfoliate, and I sing (off-key) in the shower.”

As previously reported, celebrities such as Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher recently shared that they and their children do not bathe often.
“I didn’t have hot water growing up as a child, so I didn’t shower very much anyway,” Kunis said.
“I wasn’t that parent that bathed my newborns, ever,” she added.
Kutcher chimed in, saying, “If you can see the dirt on them, clean them. Otherwise, there’s no point.”
The That 70’s Show star even mentioned that he only washes his private area and armpits every day and only rinses his face off with water to get the salt out after a workout.
Soon after this, couple Dax Shepard and actress Kristen Bell appeared on The View and were asked to discuss Kunis’ and Kutcher’s bathing routine.

“What’s interesting is, we bathed our children every single night prior to bed as part of a routine — and then, somehow, they started to go to sleep on their own without the routine,” Shepard said about his daughters Lincoln and Delta, who are six and eight years old.
“[Kristen and I] had to start saying, like, ‘Hey, when’s the last time you bathed them?” he added.
“Yeah, we forget,” Bell said, while Shepard added that the usually go up to five to six days before bathing their children or until they start to smell.
“I’m a big fan of waiting for the stink,” Bell said. “Once you catch a whiff, that’s biology’s way of letting you know you need to clean it up. I don’t hate what they’re doing. I wait for the stink!”
One Twitter user seemed pleased to know that The Rock is one of the clean ones.
The not bathing/showering thing grosses me out! I shower 2x a day (sometimes more if I’m working out or sweating outside working).
Please, people. Be like The Rock. Don’t be a stinky.
