Celebs With Really Bad Breath

As much as we'd like to think of glamorous stars as practically perfect, it's a fact that at the end of the day they're just like us...only richer. While their wealth often means they can afford nice homes, the best plastic surgeons, and pricey personal trainers, some celebrities still struggle with an all too common mutual enemy, halitosis — a condition better known as bad breath.

You may shudder to think of your favorite star or starlet as offending everyone around them every time they talk, but it turns out certain celebrities are known for their funky breath.

A-list actress Jennifer Lawrence is either highly-inconsiderate or an epic prankster. These seem to be the only two possible explanations when it comes to Hunger Games co-star Liam Hemsworth's hilarious complaints about having to kiss her during filming. Hemsworth said during an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon that Lawrence would always eat the sort of foods that gave her nasty breath whenever she had a kissing scene with him.

We're going to trust that when Lawrence isn't making her co-stars weep over her eating habits she keeps her mouth clean and pristine.

Lamar Odom's estranged Kardashian in-laws have had some not too nice things to say about the retired basketball player's breath. During Season 7 of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Kim complained to sister Khloe about how Odom's icky breath made it difficult to get physically close to him. It was so bad, Kim claimed she was ready "to throw up in her mouth" every time she went to hug him!

No doubt it was a relief for the most famous Kardashian sibling when things between Khloe and Lamar Odam went south. There's no word yet how Kim feels about Tristan Thompson's breath, but we can only guess it's a marked improvement.

Despite being a heartthrob for decades, Johnny Depp seems to have no love for personal hygiene. A source told Fox411 that "he rarely showers" and doesn't consider hygiene a priority. Suddenly, Depp's enjoyment of repeatedly portraying a dirty pirate over the last decade makes sense. Bad breath rumors would also make sense, thanks to his previous smoking habit.

The combination of poor overall personal hygiene and cigarette smoke would certainly make it likely that Johnny Depp's bad breath problems are as bad as people suggest. However, as Us Weekly reports, Johnny Depp came to his own defense in February 2016. "When I met people they said, 'You do look like a hobo, but you smell really good.' And goddamn it, I smell really good!"

Not only did Jessica Simpson confuse tuna and chicken, but apparently the blonde bombshell has also failed to grasp the importance of regularly brushing her teeth. According to ABC News, Jessica revealed during an appearance on the Ellen show that she might brush two or three times per week. What's her reason? Apparently, she really hates that "slippery" feeling that teeth get when they're super clean. Instead of routine brushing, she gets by with a combination of Listerine and daily flossing. Simpson also chews on Nicorette gum, despite being a non-smoker.

While Simpson insists this habit guarantees she has fresh breath, not only is this inadequate protection against halitosis, but as one doctor warns, her bad habit could endanger her dazzling smile! Sally Cram, a periodontist and American Dental Association consumer advisor spokesperson, told ABC News, "The biggest risk she faces is losing her teeth. You need to remove the plaque and bacteria that build up under your teeth and gums at least every 24 hours." Failure to do so can lead to tooth decay.
