Japanese television personalities have used variety programs to discuss unconventional personal habits, ranging from extreme time-management to specific hygiene practices.

On the Nippon TV program ‘Ueda and Women Howl at Night’, guests discussed the cultural concept of ‘time performance’ (タイパ). Examples included folding laundry during bathroom time and applying makeup while riding an escalator, the latter of which drew criticism from viewers regarding public manners.

In subsequent discussions on the same program, celebrities shared personal cleanliness rituals and anxieties. These included bringing sleeping bags to hotels to avoid contact with sheets and using hot water to disinfect shower spaces. Some guests faced scrutiny for habits such as going several days without bathing or not washing bedsheets for extended periods.
