Kelly Clarkson and Kenan Thompson just weighed in on possibly the greatest debate of our time: To pee or not to pee... in the shower.
And, honestly, Clarkson's stance on the age-old controversy had some fans shook.
Thompson appeared on The Kelly Clarkson Show to promote his just-released memoir When I Was Your Age: Life Lessons, Funny Stories & Questionable Parenting Advice From a Professional Clown.
Clarkson noted that in his book, Thompson detailed some "shower advice."
The first topic they discussed was brushing one's teeth in the shower, which Thompson expressed he finds "to be gross."
Clarkson, on the other hand, believes it to be efficient.
"Here's the thing. I don't regularly brush my teeth in the shower."
"I just do if I'm in a hurry."
"Now, I do happen to be in a hurry often."
The next item up for discussion was leg-washing.
You remember the 2019 debate, right? Ellen DeGeneres and Taylor Swift engaged in a lengthy conversation about whether or not shaving counts as washing.

It seems Clarkson is on Team Shaving because when Thompson said you should "get all the way down" and not "leave your ankles out," Clarkson rebutted:
"But wait, when you're washing up here, it does wash down."
Fair enough, but her next revelation had fans debating what should and shouldn't be included in showers.
The host asked Thompson if he peed in the shower, to which he responded:
"I would lie if I said I had never done it, but I try not to."
Clarkson, however, had no qualms about disclosing she does it "almost every time."
She attempted to justify her position:
"You can't help it."
"It goes back to that childhood sleepover. You know, they put your hand in the hot water. Sometimes, you pee."
"The hot water hits your body and — not every time, but like, if I've gotta go... yeah."

Thompson's verbal response to Clarkson's confession was measured.
"I'm glad you're open enough to say that."
"That's great."
But his face said differently.

We may not all agree with the host's idea of a good shower, but we can all agree she is refreshingly honest!
