Olivia Munn Reveals Gross Sushi Bath Mishap

Olivia Munn recently shared a stomach-turning story that has left fans both amused and empathetic. The 45-year-old actress appeared on the Tuesday, November 18 episode of "Today with Jenna & Friends" to reveal what she calls "one of the grossest things" she's ever done in her life.

The story begins with Munn working while exhausted during a stay at the Shangri-La hotel in Vancouver. "I was really tired. This decision came from being exhausted," she explained. The hotel had "amazing sushi," and she found herself craving both a warm bath and a meal at the same time.

In what seemed like a time-saving solution, Munn placed her sushi on the ledge of the bathtub while running her bath. However, she got distracted, and by the time she returned, she had apparently decided to multitask. "I climbed into the bath and started eating the sushi from the bath," she admitted.

What Munn didn't anticipate was the consequence of this decision. The next day, while at the airport, she found herself battling severe food poisoning. "I was at the airport at the gift shop, just, like, [throwing up] into the trash can from afar," she recalled, miming the unpleasant experience.

Munn believes the issue was the proximity of her meal to the hot bathwater. "Sushi's not supposed to be heated by bath water for sure," she noted, although she confirmed that despite the questionable method of storage, "It didn't taste heated up. It was still cold" when she ate it.

The actress cringed as she shared her regrettable tale, jokingly adding, "I hate myself for telling that story." Her honesty and self-deprecating humor have resonated with fans who appreciate celebrities sharing relatable, embarrassing moments.

Despite this unpleasant experience, Munn made it clear that one bad bath hasn't changed her love for relaxation time in the tub. "I love a bath. I need a bath. It's the quiet time. I just get to relax," she affirmed.

This isn't the first time Munn has embraced hotel bathtubs as her personal sanctuary. Back in October, she shared on Instagram that she spent the night in her hotel's bathtub in Paris while her parents occupied the main room. "Asian families have zero personal space," she quipped, showing off the suite before climbing into the tub and noting, "This is where I'm sleeping tonight. Oh, it's not bad!"

The story has sparked a conversation about multitasking and the importance of food safety. While Munn's experience was extreme, it serves as a reminder that sometimes our best intentions to save time can lead to unexpected consequences.

As for Munn, she's taking the experience in stride, proving that even celebrities have their share of embarrassing moments. Her willingness to share such a personal and unflattering story has endeared her further to fans who appreciate her authenticity and humor.
