Tyra Banks' hit show 'America's Next Top Model' has had its share of quirky contestants, but never one like this. One of this season's contestants, a 24-year-old native New Yorker named Claire, may qualify as the most bizarre of all after she admitted to the judges that she had been drinking her own breast milk.
Claire told Tyra that she wanted to keep her breast milk flowing so that she could nurse her daughter after she left the show, but when asked if she was sending the milk home, Tyra got a rather surprising response.
"Right now I'm actually drinking it... It tastes kind of like light soy milk."
When asked what her reason was for drinking her breast milk, Claire said that she didn't want to just throw it away: "I drank my breast milk only during audition week because I did not want to waste it after putting all my effort into making and extracting it. Dumping milk just seems wrong," Claire said, adding that at one point she was drinking two or three glasses of breast milk a day. "A mother's milk is like liquid gold, so I also wanted the nutritional value back and to keep my immunity up."
