In a surprising revelation during a recent interview, former Baywatch star Jeremy Jackson admitted that he used to sniff his co-stars’ swimsuits while on set. The 44-year-old actor, known for his role as Hobie Buchannon on the iconic series from 1991 to 1999, discussed this peculiar method of getting into character with a well-known entertainment outlet.

Jackson explained that the act of sniffing the swimsuits, scented with chlorine and saltwater, was his way of immersing himself into the role of Hobie. “It was just a way to get into the zone,” he shared.

The revelation has caused quite a stir among fans and his previous Baywatch colleagues. “It’s just weird, you know?” commented a former member of the Baywatch cast, preferring to stay unnamed. “I never thought about it, but I guess it makes sense. Jeremy was always a bit of a character.”

Despite the mixed reactions, Jackson stands by his actions, insisting it was an innocuous habit that was all part of his artistic process and did not bother his colleagues. “No one ever said anything to me about it,” he remarked. “I think they just thought it was weird, but it was all in the name of art, you know?”

This confession has ignited a robust discussion among the fanbase, with opinions divided between those who view his actions as a form of creative expression and others who find his behavior inappropriate. Nonetheless, Jackson’s candid admission has undeniably stirred up significant attention and debate within the entertainment community.
