Sarah Palin's Home-Installed Tanning Bed

Lipstick may not be the only difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull. There’s also the tanning bed!

GOP vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin had a private tanning bed installed at the Juneau, Alaska Governor’s Mansion in 2007, Us Weekly reports.

"She did. She paid for it with her own money," Roger Wetherell, chief communications officer of Alaska's Department of Transportation and Public Facilities tells Us.

The tanning bed was used, and purchased from a health club, says the mag. The cost of a tanning bed can reportedly reach $35,000 when installed in a home.

  • sooooooo what with the long winters and no sun I know for a fact I would need one. Also whoever did the research on the 35,000 $ cost amount is an idiot, I live in Idaho not tooooo far from Alaska and got one used as sarah did for 3500.00 there is...

  • For those that rag on tanning beds, learn the facts. UV Light kills a myriad of pathogens. I have 6 children and a tanning bed...so what's the big deal? People who get more sunlight and healthier.

  • I'd be more worried that she is a religious zealot and dumb as dog dirt rather than whether she is or is not tanned.

  • Instead of tanning she should be teaching her Harlot daughter about the birds and the bees. This woman is an idiot. Can you say a-Duh ! PS: I'm a republican, by the way....and she does not get my vote.
