Liv Tyler Shares Dad's Fathering Methods, Including The Time He Flossed Her Teeth While Tripping
So Liv Tyler just separated from her husband of five years and her Jolie-lipped father Steven Tyler just entered rehab for the 78th time, but in the most highly impressive of ways, the actress managed to avoid both lines of questioning during an interview with gay love lover Jay Leno by sweetly relaying stories of their incredibly “healthy” habits. After getting that boring "Oh My Gawd What Was It Like Having Your Dad Watch You Pole Dance At 16" story out of the way (nailed it, Jay!), Tyler paints a very Norman Rockwell-esque portrait of life at Casa Tyler as a child. Though we fear what the young Liv understood to be fatherly love was, in actuality, acid-tripping fatherly hallucinations involving trippy strings of floss. Watch and learn.
After gleefully noticing Liv's decision to leave that recent caked-on makeup and tranny-ish new look behind her, we couldn't help but grow worried as she told the tale of when Papa Tyler taught her about how one goes about flossing their teeth. Steven's method, you see, was to force little Liv to (cringe) "smell" the tape post-floss. Naturally, Liv found the scent "disgusting," and has been quite the star flosser ever since. But considering the life her metallic Speedo-loving father was leading at the time, we hope she never comes to the realization we've currently come to: Liv's gorgeous smile is the result of one whacked out bender Steven spent in the bathroom smelling dental plaque.
