Former “X-Files” star Gillian Anderson says she felt nauseous after she drank the blood of goats and lambs as part of a Kenyan ritual. Anderson drank the blood of the animals from a hole in the neck in a Masai tribal ceremony while on a trip to Africa recently.

She told contact-music.com: “You crouch down and drink it straight off its neck. They pull the skin away and then you suck the hole. Goat is better than lamb. Lambs have a lot more fat on them, so the blood is very gloopy. I didn’t feel particularly good after that.” Anderson, who is also an animal rights campaigner, said she would not repeat the ritual again.
