The haters gonna hate, hate, hate… but when it comes to leg hair, Taylor Swift’s just gonna shave, shave, shave it off.
The pop superstar is taking some heat on social media after she revealed that her gams are shorn daily – which is the same as washing them, right?
“I kind of always shave my legs,” Swift said during an appearance on Ellen that aired Wednesday.
Host Ellen DeGeneres asked: “Every day?”
“Well, I mean, yeah,” replied Swift.
“God, you must be hairy,” DeGeneres said.
According to a 2009 survey by American Laser Centers, only 11 per cent of women shave every day.
Swift's shaving habit came up while she weighed in on a Twitter poll asking people if they wash their legs when they take a shower. (Spoiler alert: Most people do.)
“I do, ’cause when you shave your legs … the shaving cream is like soap, right?” Swift said. “So it counts. I’m on the right side of history.”
Not everyone agrees – and many got a bit prickly on Twitter to call out Swift on both her shaving and bathing habits. Here’s a sample of the reaction:
Taylor Swift really said that shaving cream is like soap so therefore she washes her legs... I just wanna thank my mother for making sure that I had proper education on hygiene #duttttttyyyyyy

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 pic.twitter.com/jAXoONogSr

Reason number 173928319 that @taylorswift13 is a queen. She shaves her legs everyday! Who has the motivation, time and energy to do that?! Oh yeah, Miss Swift herself.

Btw I would still love her if she had hairy legs
The biggest difference between me and Taylor Swift is not that she's a super talented star. It's that she shaves her legs every day, and I shave my legs like...four times a year.
