They have a wikipedia article on belly button lint? Wow that's sad. But they didn't mention something in that post.
The truth is it comes from both underwear and the shirt. On braniac the guy wore red underwear with red pants and a white shirt. At the end of the day the fluff was pink showing that it came from both the shirt and pants.
