Joan Crawford’s Weird Obsession with Plumbing

Joan Crawford, super star of the 1930s and 40s, had a little obsession with bathrooms. Every time she stayed in a hotel room, she scrubbed the bathroom (including the toilets, tubs and bathroom faucets) herself before using it. Her other weird bathroom obsessions included:

1. After a workman installed a new toilet and bathtub in her home, he used them. She immediately had everything torn out.
2. Every time Joan married, she would change all the toilet seats in her house.
3. Joan wore gloves whenever she left the house because of her germ phobia.

The movie Mommie Dearest is starting to make a little more sense now!
