Rylan Clark once smeared hair removal cream over his whole penis "and nearly circumcised" himself.

The BBC Radio 2 presenter, 34, was a guest on Soap and Glory's Soaking Up Life With... series, where he admitted to presenter Emily Atack, 33, that he had once bodged up a hair removal treatment at home when he was investigating the common belief that less pubic hair can enhance the look of a man's penis.

He said: “People would think I’m bald everywhere apart from my face, but I’m not, I’m actually quite hairy. One day, I thought, I'll be honest with you, ‘I wonder if it’ll look bigger if there’s nothing there?’

“So I had a little trim up and then I thought, I’m gonna order some hair removal cream. When I say, I nearly circumcised myself… I left it on too long and I didn’t realise you’re not supposed to put it on the shaft.

“I was moving about, going about my day, only for about 10 minutes. Categorically, I was like, 'Oh it's tingling, but maybe that's supposed to happen.' And when I read the thing, it was like only put [it] on the base of the pubic area, not on the shaft."

It's not the only extreme beauty look the fake tan loving ex-reality star has surprised fans with recently.

Last month he posted a selfie taken in Venice which showed him wearing a crisp white shirt, blue linen jacket, and flawless make-up that highlighted his chiselled features.

However, fans were a little distracted by Rylan’s new hair ’do to take notice of his other attributes.

While the TV personality usually opts for a sharp, short back and sides for his jet black hair, he is sporting a long, thick mane of caramel strands in the new photo.

Contrasting beautifully with his black beard and eyebrows, the new look drew many different comparisons from his fans.

Sharing the snap with his 1.6 million Instagram followers, Rylan captioned the snap: “Venezia”.

The This Morning presenter was quickly inundated with comments from his fans and various celebrity pals.

Steps legend Claire Richards, 45, cheekily wrote in response: “F**ks sake,” with two crying laughing emojis.

Rylan replied to her comment: “U love it”. And Louise Redknapp, 48, gushed: “Love it”.

Amongst the compliments there were comparisons made between Rylan’s new look and various other celebrities varying from actor Jared Leto to his old pal Katie Price.
