Kate Beckinsale has just turned in one of the most extraordinary chat show appearances in recent times, as she stunned host Jimmy Kimmel<\/a> by stating that her daughter’s boyfriend had recently laid two hard-boiled eggs.<\/p>\n

The Underworld and The Elder Scrolls Online<\/a> actress left Kimmel open-mouthed as she began recalling how the unnamed boyfriend had passed two eggs, complete with a shell and yolk.<\/p>\n

Clearly uncertain of what he’d just heard, Kimmel asked Beckinsale to clarify whether she was suggesting the eggs had actually come from her daughter’s boyfriend’s body. “Yes,” Beckinsale replied. “Not out of his mouth or ears, it came out the route it would come out of a hen. Well, not his vagina. He went to the bathroom and was very surprised to find that he had laid an egg.”<\/p>\n

Straight-faced, Beckinsale told Kimmel she had believed the account after seeing how “genuinely scared” her daughter’s boyfriend had been, especially after he cracked the egg open to confirm its contents. But while Beckinsale said she had accepted that the egg itself was legitimate, she had still harbored doubts over how it had got there. <\/p>\n

“I said to him, ‘Is this some kind of attention-seeking? Are you putting eggs up your bottom?'” Beckinsale recalled. \u201cBut I think it\u2019s quite hard to put an egg up your bottom and then get it out whole without injuring the egg.” <\/p>\n

The ordeal then occured a second time, later that same week, Beckinsale said. This time, she personally received photos as proof, in order for her daughter to examine them later.<\/p>\n

In perhaps the most extraordinary part of the interview<\/a>, Beckinsale offers to produce the photos on her phone for Kimmel and his chat show sidekick Guillermo to view, while warning them that they are “medical” in nature. At first, Kimmel says he’ll judge if the photos are suitable for the programme’s live studio audience to also see \u2014 but this is seemingly forgotten as the host reacts in shock to what he’s just been shown. <\/p>\n

“What in the world \u2014” Kimmel says, before the rest of his reaction is censored, presumably due to profanity. “Your daughter’s boyfriend is the Easter Bunny, there’s no other way to explain this!”<\/p>\n

Beckinsale continued her story by recalling how her family had subsequently contacted numerous medical professionals for their advice, only to be told the unexplained events had clearly been “some sort of complicated masturbation thing, which it wasn’t.” Another potential explanation was that the boyfriend had eaten some kind of egg-shaped foodstuff, like a lychee, or actual eggs so fast he’d just digested and passed them whole. “No, he hadn’t,” Beckinsale stated. <\/p>\n

Kimmel appeared so taken in by the story that the host allows it to take up the remainder of Beckinsale’s time slot on the show, to the point where he is forced to wrap up and acknowledge they had not even begun to start discussing the film she had been there to promote, action thriller Wildcat.<\/p>\n

It’s a truly odd interaction, and one that Kimmel seems to react with genuine confusion. Still, the bizarre nature of the conversation has led many viewers to conclude it has to be a bit on Beckinsale’s part. (Something which, of course, medical evidence would also agree with.) Regardless, the appearance has instantly sparked conversation online, as viewers and doctors attempt to work out what the shell is going on.<\/p>\n
