Twitter has a new toy this week and its name is Miranda Kerr’s New Beauty Q&A. Conducted in May, the interview is generating a bunch of buzz courtesy of secondhand press commentary like that f New York Times reporter Taylor Lorenz, who tweeted an excerpt from it and wrote, “I like this interview b/c this is exactly the type of deranged pseudo-scientific crap I would get into if I was a mega-rich celeb.” What pseudo-scientific crap is that, you ask? Let’s see … “We have the air purifier. We have the stickers you put on the back of your phone for radiation. I have the EMF [electromagnetic field] detector that picks up the waves in the air. I’ve had the whole house checked by a professional,” Miranda said of her preventative home health measures. She went on to explain that she and her husband Evan Spiegel have a switch in their “Malibu house” that “turns all the power off, except for the fridge and security cameras, in the nighttime,” which Twitter users found dubious (so Snapchat’s Evan Spiegel is “off the grid” at night I guess, wrote one commenter). Miranda also said she and her Snapchat-founding husband “mop the floors” with hot water and eucalyptus oil, which she claims is “good for the wood and it’s antibacterial,” a point commenters are calling out on Twitter because let’s be honest, a couple whose combined estimated net worth is almost $3.75 billion are probably not mopping the floors of their mansion … or is that mansions? But, wait! There’s more. “I also have an alkaline water filter so I can pick the pH of our water … You don’t want to be going too alkaline because you do need a little stomach acid to digest your food,” Miranda offered, adding, “I like using Palo Santo to clear the energy in the space, and I also have little diffusers around the house with essential oils, depending on what’s going on.”
