'Pretty Woman' star Julia Roberts has admitted she doesn't use deodorant, but has defended her armpit hygiene.
Julia Roberts doesn't wear deodorant.
The 'Pretty Woman' actress admits she doesn't use underarm hygiene products and relies on old-fashioned soap and water to keep her armpits fresh.
Speaking to US talk show host Oprah Winfrey, she said: "I don't actually use deodorant. I don't like to share that with a lot of people, but it's just never been my thing."
Roberts, 40, previously caused an armpit uproar in 1999 after she turned up to the UK premiere of romantic comedy 'Notting Hill' with hair poking out of the sleeves of her dress.
The mother-of-three, who insists she freshens up at midday when she is working, couldn't understand the furore over her hairy armpits at the time.
She said: "You'd think it was like I had a chinchilla under there, the way the world responded."

I have always been suspicious of antiperspirants, but have used plain, unscented deodorants. Besides, I wash myself everyday.
As for shaving, what for? It's been probably more than a year I did that. There is hardly any hair there nowadays....an advantage of old age!!
How about you, Ladies and Gents? Got chinchillas under your arms???

When Julia showed up on the set.....(according to the newspapers at the time), the general focus of conversation was on the movie, etc. etc.. Jules let the armpit hair out,
,and the world totally focused on her.......
Not her intention, I'm sure. Being a Hollywood actress, she would never try to grab the spotlight.......
Women I've been associated with, shower or bathe every day, use deo, and shave their armpits and legs. Much appreciated from this males point of view.
I understand in some countries in Europe, the custom is to go hairy.
Whatever turns you on.................
yuck

Personally, unless you're the one in bed with her, I don't see where anyone gets a say in the length of her armpit hair but her. As for deodorant, well, I know people who use it who still stink to high heaven because they think it means they don't have to be as conscientious, so, it's not the be all and end all. If she stays on top of them, that's all the matters. Not plastering herself in carcinogenic crap that we've been convinced is better than washing seems like a smart move.

As a guy I think the choice is up to the individual. I do not sweat from the armpits, never have. Feet ,yes.

In australia they call the process of applying deodorant to a dirty armpit a "pommie shower". Pommie, for those of you who don't know, is australian slang for british people.
