He had never been taught that oral hygiene was important. A few years later he thanked me ,the day after he got married . He just didn't know.

Growing up in the Great Depression era may have had something to do with this for some actors. Having little to no money may have meant they grew accustomed to not having the man-made hygiene products we rely on so much today. My grandparents were only able to fully bathe once per week as kids. In the meantime, they relied on sponge baths, etc, a practice they carried through adulthood even though by then they made enough money and had a home of their own and could fully bathe daily. Ironically, their own home was always spotless, and they themselves never smelled bad.

Matthew McConaughey is notoriously known in Hollywood for not bathing on a regular basis. Arriving on set, he would rival a trash dumpster for stink.

It was called, "Green Irish Tweed". I've used it myself (it is fantastic and unique!!). I just wished he used it more often in his life, especially when working with others. Oh, well. Good video.

Once Gable had extensive dental surgery to remove most of his teeth, he was (reportedly) fine. The infection was so rapid and so bad that he ended up in hospital as an emergency. Because there were none of the kind of mouthwashes we have today, no electric toothbrushes, no chemically enhanced toothpastes, no interdents to clean gums between the teeth, huge infections took hold quickly and could be fatal. Most of those sparkling Hollywood smiles were as false then as they are today. The big difference being.....in those days the smile was put into a glass of sterident overnight!!

I knew a guy who didn't bathe much, because he thought his scent would make him more attractive to women due to pheromones! The guy stunk on ice!! lol

[@robertdoherty2001]

Anyone who’s been on or even near a film set will tell you how unbearably hot it can get. Add makeup, elaborate costumes and wigs to the mix and anyone would reek after 12 hours or more. Hygiene would be a top priority, you would think. Joan Crawford showered constantly and insisted her sets be refrigerated, not so much for comfort or limiting sweating, but to keep her makeup fresh.

Apparently one could smell the stench from Versailles from miles away! Thank heaven I live in modern times

[@holyharlot5222]

It should have been noted that it was normal for people to bathe once or twice a week especially until the 1950's when most people didn't have running water, let alone hot water, and they washed their clothes when they got dirty. Hotels didn't have private bathrooms. It was a different time and it wasn't uncommon to meet people with unappealing personal odor which was probably less unappealing to people from their own "tribe." The people who were complaining probably didn't smell so good themselves.

[@heru-deshet359]

I never had a problem letting people know they smelled bad.

[@zephyer-gp1ju]

I walked into a ski resort employee locker room and a coworker was there and he smelled a bit and very politely told him. He replied he had been living at his girlfriend's place and had no clean clothes but had the next three days off and was going to clean up, do laundry, and clean his apartment. Three days later I walked into the locker room, and it stank, I had to go around two corners to get to the lockers and there he was. He smelled so bad I couldn't stand it and I used to work around cattle. I got right in his face and told him he stank, bad. I can't recall his reply. That evening at quitting time I noticed he wasn't in the locker room. Later I asked a coworker that seemed to know everything going on at the resort about him. They fired stinky shortly after I told him he stank. The guy had been sleeping on the streets of Denver for three days shooting heroin.

If I can walk into a room and smell someone forty feet away and around two corners, you don't think no one else could? Besides, you really want a junkie running a large machine that could hurt a lot of people. I don't know if you have ever been told, but heroin is really bad. Maybe that it is why it is against the law to "make it, transport it, sell it, buy it, or possess it."

[@joanbroad3528]

Vivien Leigh was fanatical about being clean including a routine for placing her clothes under a special cover ready to be cleaned, she was also very particular about her white gloves, ensuring they were immaculate and changed them several times a day. In all the research I’ve done and the biographies I’ve read I have never heard of any person commenting on her personal care. Obviously she did suffer from severe depression therefore it is unforgivable that she is included in this video!

Michael Landon once commented about one of the perks for being on set of Little House on the Prairie, was that it was unnecessary for him to have to shower every day. Since his Pa Ingalls character lived way out on the prairie, it didn't matter if he was freshly showered. Or words to that affect.

[@Dynamo001]

Several of these people had the right idea of avoiding toxic chemicals and eating natural/organic foods; unfortunately, the naturalist ones didn't think of using natural soap and shampoo, daily. The natural body oils that some were afraid of washing off, could be replaced with essential oils. They even had those, back then. They chose to be dirty and funky.

You could have added Marilyn Monroe, Marlene Dietrich, Tallulah Bankhead and Lupe Velez who were also Notorious Non-Bathers. I was very surprised to see Joan Fontaine on this dubious list. A lot of these actors were born and grew up when regular bathing / hot n cold plumbing wasnt accessible, it was not an uncommon habit to take a bath once a week, usually on Saturday night. One would wash one's pits and privates (maybe) during the week. Also, women had a dubious habit of applying another sprinkle of body talcum and face powder. We take heaps for granted these days, especially in North America. What would we do in the Developing World and Tropical climates...? Im glad some commentators made to correlation between excessive Smoking and the body odor. Im not surprised that many stars stunk to high-heaven after four or five packs of unfiltered schmokes.
