Taye Diggs

Taye Diggs revealed a fascinating tidbit from his childhood during an appearance on the CBS show The Talk. In his early years, he boasted an extra digit on each hand, a quirky trait that piqued curiosity and raised eyebrows. However, he opted to part ways with these additional fingers while still in his youth, leaving behind nothing but a few scars as mementos of his time as a “12-fingered wonder.”

Polydactyly, the condition responsible for his surplus fingers, can manifest at various stages of finger development. In hindsight, Taye may ponder whether he should have held onto those extra digits. With a touch of humor, he now jests, “I could’ve been really handy,” a witty nod to the unique quirk that once adorned his hands.
