At 86, Jane Fonda may still be making headlines, but it’s not just for her acting or activism. Sources reveal the Barbarella star has developed a bizarre obsession with feet, which is now as much a part of her lifestyle as her political stances that have stirred controversy for decades.

“Jane is obsessed with foot care,” an insider revealed. “She has a strict routine to keep her feet in shape, from foot baths with Epsom salt and peppermint oil to regular massages. She’s willing to spend whatever it takes, even though most people would find it a bit over the top.”

Fonda’s political views, especially her infamous 1972 trip to North Vietnam, still spark anger in many Americans, and her foot obsession just adds another layer to her already eccentric persona. Now, along with her headline-making activism, insiders say Fonda has a habit of inspecting the feet of potential dates—especially younger men.

“She’ll only date younger men because she doesn’t like ‘old skin,’ but they have to pass her foot test,” a source shared. “If a guy’s feet aren’t up to her standards, that’s it. She won’t even consider another date.”

Her fixation on foot health extends to her own daily habits, and it’s not just about pampering. “Jane changes her socks multiple times a day to avoid infections and other foot problems,” the insider added. “It’s just one of her many peculiar routines.”

Fonda, who has been married and divorced three times, has long made headlines for her unconventional beliefs and behavior, and her obsession with feet seems to fit right in.

According to sources, she avoids designer high heels—except for a $600 pair of sneaker-hybrid heels by Spanx creator Sara Blakely—because comfort has become her top priority. “She doesn’t care about the price tag as long as she’s comfortable,” the source said.

Adding to the strange behavior, Fonda reportedly believes a person’s feet reveal their emotions and personality, and she’s known to talk to her own feet. “It’s definitely odd,” said one insider. “People close to her think it’s a little out there, but this is Jane. She’s always had a reputation for being different.”

For those who’ve never warmed to Fonda, whether because of her politics or her personality, this latest quirk will probably come as no surprise.

The actress, who remains a polarizing figure even in her later years, continues to attract attention—though not always for reasons that have anything to do with her career.
