Kate Beckinsale has a bad side.

The Love & Friendship star appeared on Late Night With Seth Meyers Wednesday where she confessed to one of her secret hobbies: turning fruit into penises. Host Seth Meyers exposed her dirty pastime, which she has documented over the years with photos. Using bananas, lychee, chives, grapefruits and more, Kate has proven that she's truly talented!

"It's not hard," she said, laughing as she realized her double entendre. "It's not hard in the sense that it's not difficult. You do have to have an eye and you do obviously have to have a desire to do it, which I have in spades. I do that quite a lot." 

Beckinsale has used her talent in her home and while on set, terrorizing her co-stars with random penis-arranged fruit outside of their hotel doors. "It's slightly bordering into bullying," she quipped.

To be clear, Beckinsale isn't obsessed with male genitalia. "I like the fruit version. It's not like I'm obsessed with all people's penises. It's always funny if it's vegetables and fruit."

Unfortunately, her habit got her daughter Lily Sheen in trouble at school because the Underworld star had accidentally doodled a penis on Lily's homework when she was in the sixth grade. Oops!

This was Beckinsale's first public appearance since estranged husband Ken Wiseman filed for divorce earlier this week. Beckinsale and Wiseman separated 11 months ago, but a source told E! News that they had been "separated for a while" before that. The former couple met on the set of Underworld in 2003 and got engaged at the Viceroy Hotel. They married a year later at Hotel Bel-Air.
