Hollywood's Worst Tans: Celebrities Turn Orange (PHOTOS)

Hollywoods Worst Tans

The Huffington Post   First Posted: 02/ 6/2012 2:50 pm Updated: 02/ 6/2012 2:50 pm

Bronzing with a bottle may be safer than grilling yourself to a crisp, but it can be even more dangerous for your image. Just look at what happened to Christina Aguilera on Monday, when her rendition of "At Last" at Etta James' funeral was upstaged by the spray tan dripping down her leg. And Kim Kardashian had to feel burned when she stepped out to dinner in Miami with a tell-tale white spot on her hand. At least beach bums don't have to worry about missing a spot.

And though being orange in public is nothing new for the "Jersey Shore" gang, a little part of us died when we saw George Clooney strike an off-color pose on the red carpet. Let's hope it's just a mild case of overexposure to that warm Lake Como sun.

In honor of these and other melanin mishaps, HuffPost Celebrity compiled this slide show of Hollywood's most unnatural tans. Real or fake, they've left a lasting impression.

Hollywood is based on fakeness. Fake tans, fake hair, fake bodies and faces, fake personnas. And they get paid alot of money and get rewarded golden statues for the best fakery exhibited. What the hell else do you expect? They're all overpaid plastic people who are morally bankrupt and wield way too much power in our society. If anything needs to be called on the carpet...it's us for worshiping the these fake golden idols. The tanning spray runs down Aguilera's leg...oh no! Nobody wants to see the truth....the idols are not God's after all.

Is that pic of Jessica Simpson really her or a wax figure?! Some of the pics look like bad tan, some others just look like the photo was taken in bad light. Kelly O looks like she is seasick.

Spray tans are the worst. Nothing beats that glow you get from a little bit of real sun. As for tanning beds, it feels like you're in a coffin and could possibly put you in one sooner than you want so, no thanks. I just wish I lived in Hawaii so I could get some real sun all year long. Pennsylvania isn't exactly tropical. :(

So I think that Kelly O. put neon yellow highlighter all over her mug, and ashes from a barbecue in her hair.

No color really goes with that awful gray shade of hair Kelly sports. Ugh.

those are some horrific fake tans (Valentino, Paris Hilton and Trump take the cake).. however, Kelly Osbourne looks like she used the wrong color foundation as her nexk is pale white.

Osbourne looks like some old washerwoman and PLEASE wipe off that STU-pid pink lipstick.
It doesn't flatter ANYONE.

why Kelly dye her hair gray for? that looks nasty. she needs to be arrested by the fashion police too! her outfit don't look sexy, they look punk deft. kinda like she stole outta the closet from Joan Jett and the Blackhearts. as far as the tanless spray, that orange look is messed up! it make them look they have jaundice or liver problem. that aint attractive. be real and keep it real chics!

Why is Kelly Osborne on "Fashion Police." She usually looks like someone trying really hard to be "high fashion."

That's not spray tan running down her leg. Anyone who uses spray tan knows that. She was belting out a song and sprung a leak. The spray tan excuse is just PR bull.
