Cooper wears same jeans daily, rarely washes them

If you ask Anderson Cooper, being a celebrity isn't all about glitz and glam. In fact, the famous newsman is so un-fancy that he wears the same jeans every day and even admits that he doesn't wash them very often.

While chatting with What Not to Wear co-host and fashion guru Stacy London on his show Anderson Live Thursday, Cooper, who is recovering from a temporary blindness, revealed his preference for a simple style of dress.

"In my real life, I wear a T-shirt, gray or white, and the same pair of jeans," he told London. "Literally, the same pair of jeans every day."

And, what's more, they don't regularly see the inside of a washing machine.

"They have these jeans you don't have to wash now -- or so they say. It's true!" he claimed. "I went to this store APC which has really nice stuff. And you buy these things and the person said to me, 'Don't wash them for a long time.' They mean like six months, I think."

When London suggested he increase the frequency of his laundry routine and advised that he nix the soap and use cold water to get them clean, Cooper revealed the strange way in which he does wash his dungarees.

"The times I've done it, I've worn them and walked into my shower with them and put some soap on them and then air dried them. Isn't that how you are supposed to do it?"

Um, not so much, Coop.
