Taylor Swift admits strange shower habit - and it's sparked a gross debate

Earlier this week, global superstar Taylor Swift appeared on The Ellen Show to talk about her new single, her new kitten and her new album.

It was her first sit-down television interview in years and as a result Ellen Degeneres had a lot of questions to ask her.

From what her favourite swear word is to what she does when she c an't sleep at night, the singer was put on the spot about all sorts.

But one of the questions she answered has really got people talking - and some are rather grossed out by her answer.

Taylor Swift confesses her unusual habit of SLEEP-EATING 'like a raccoon'  

Degeneres asked the Shake It Off singer whether or not she washed her legs while in the shower.

Swift responded: "I do, cause when you shave your legs, the shaving cream is like soap, right?"

She then added that she shaves her legs everyday, which raised a few eyebrows - including Ellen's.

However the host agreed with the star that women who shave do take good care of their legs in the shower.

Taylor Swift reveals what fans can expect from TS7 - and it sounds incredible  

The internet wasn't in agreement though - with many on Twitter saying they don't believe shower gel/cream is the same thing as soap.

One person tweeted: " Taylor Swift said 'shaving cream is basically soap' so as long as she shaves her legs, she doesn't need to wash them in the shower. No, no, no, no no, no..."

Another responded: "How the hell do you not wash your legs in the shower??? Huh?? You just stop after your butt and that's it? Taylor Swift said she don't wash her legs but she shaves them girl that is not the same thing wtf."

A third added: "If you aren't washing your legs what ARE you washing cause you're missing half your body if you don't wash your legs."

Others were too focused on the effort of shaving everyday: "Girl, what?! Who does that??? That sounds exhausting."

Despite this, there were some who agreed that shaving cream counted as soap and many of her fans just thought the whole conversation was hilarious - of course, it made them love her all the more.

"Taylor Swift washing her legs everyday has given me some weird motivation," posted one Swiftie.

Another commented: "I can't believe I shaved my legs today cause Taylor Swift said that she shaves everyday. Her power."
