Everyone has their own thing, apparently -- and for Derek Jeter, it was a gold thong (that he needed to wear).

During an appearance on “The Tonight Show,” the famedcaptain revealed that he once wore a gold thong to help break out of a slump at the plate.

Jeter was playing a game of “True Confessions” with host Jimmy Fallon and singer Rita Ora when he picked up an envelope and read, “I once wore a thong in public in front of thousands of people.” Fallon and Ora proceeded to interrogate him, but they believed Jeter was lying until he announced it was the truth.“Let me explain,” Jeter said. “I had a new teammate who I played with in 2002 and he always had a gold thong hanging from his locker.

“So in 2004, I went through the worst offensive stretch of my career and every day I walked in, he would point at the thong. So finally I wore the thong.”
