“The View” Host: Showering Every Day Is “Such A White People Thing”

“Glee” star Naya Rivera thinks showering is for white people.

While co-hosting The View on Monday, Rivera – who is half-Puerto Rican, one-quarter black and one-quarter white – said that daily showering was something that “ethnics” just didn’t do.

“I have to say I have a theory about showering, [which] is that I think that white people shower a lot more than ethnics. I feel like showering more than once a day or every day is such a white people thing,” Rivera said.

When the audience seemed taken aback, Rivera continued: “My mom is half-black, half-Puerto Rican, and she showers every day, so I can say this. But I can say that I am now married to a white man, and he showers a lot. Like, a lot — two, three times a day. I’m like, ‘What are you doing?’”
