Top 5 strangest celebrity phobias

Even if you’re rich and famous it doesn’t mean you must always be in your comfort zone. Little and insignificant things as they may seem to others, turn celebrities’ life into hell, literally, as there are so many things celebrities are afraid of.

On the other hand, celebs are quite honest and open when it comes to talking about their greatest & most uncontrollable fears, also known as phobias. While these things usually drive celebs nuts, they’re really funny to talk about.

So here are top 5 strangest celebrity phobias.

5. Tyra Banks

Tyra Banks is scared of dolphins. Tyra has been scared of these beautiful and really intelligent animals since the age of 8 often seeing them in her nightmares.

I have dreams that I am in a pool and there are dolphins bumping me and I’m frightened,” Banks has confessed.

4. Orlando Bloom

We don’t know the origin of this fear but according to reports, actor and farther-to-be Orlando Bloom is afraid of pigs. Such a strange fear. I’ve seen pigs in my life and even touched them, it is not scary at all!

3. Megan Fox

On of the hottest women in showbiz is terribly afraid of touching paper and is scared of bacteria. That’s why she doesn’t use public restrooms and doesn’t like restaurants and cafes.

Every time someone uses a bathroom and they flush, all the bacteria is shot into the air. Putting my mouth where a million other mouths have been, just knowing all the bacteria that you carry in your mouth? Ucch!” Megan told Allure’s June 2010 issue.

2. Oprah Winfrey

I’d never think that one of the most powerful women in the world, TV mogul Oprah Winfrey is afraid of… gum! As it often happens in our life, this fear originates from Oprah’s childhood:

My grandmother used to save [used gum] in little rows in the cabinet,” Oprah Winfrey once said. “I’d be scared to touch it because it was so gross. So I have a thing about gum. One guest in my home sat at the dinner table, took out some gum from her mouth and put it on her plate. After she left, I threw the plate out.”

1. Alfred Hitchcock

You may know him as the person behind some of the scariest horror movies you’ve ever seen, but this man also had weak points when it came to phobias. Alfred Hitchcock was afraid of eggs!

I can’t get it, I really tried to find something scary in eggs but I failed. Maybe you’ll succeed.

FYI, the man with the largest number of phobias in showbiz is iconic director Woody Allen.

Woody is afraid of insects, sunshine, dogs, deer, cancer, bright colors, children, heights, small rooms, crowds, and every place except Manhattan.
