Beloved actor Anthony Anderson, famously known for his role in Amazon Prime’s action-thriller ‘G20,’ recently shared a humorous anecdote about a moment of self-care gone wrong. In an exclusive interview with PEOPLE, Anderson revealed that he ended up injuring himself while attempting a relaxation session at home.
The 54-year-old actor disclosed that he had decided to indulge in some self-care by trying out his steam shower for the first time after a yoga session. However, things took an unexpected turn when he set the temperature to a scorching 125 degrees. Anderson comically recounted, “I thought, ‘Oh, I’m going to turn it all the way up. How high does this go? 125 degrees. Oh, it’s just steam. I can deal with that. No ma’am. No ma’am.”
Despite the mishap, Anderson saw the funny side of the situation and shared a public service announcement, warning others about the dangers of overly hot steam showers. He humorously added, “I just want to let everybody out there know right now, 125 degrees in a steam shower, too hot. Everything burns. And when I say everything, I mean everything because you’re in there naked, everything burns.”
Anderson, who co-stars with Viola Davis in ‘G20,’ expressed his determination to give the steam shower another try, albeit at a lower temperature. He jokingly stated, “I’m going to break it down though. I’m going to come down to 115 to see what that is like. I’m going to break it down in 10-degree increments until I find the proper temperature where things don’t burn that don’t need to be burned and steamed. I steamed my undercarriage, Julie. I steamed my undercarriage.”
In addition to discussing his steamy mishap, Anderson shared some light-hearted insights into his daily life. From learning life hacks on social media to nostalgic moments spent barbecuing with his father, the actor gave fans a glimpse into his off-screen persona. He also fondly recounted a memorable encounter with former President Barack Obama and their shared love for golf.
