Rob Lowe Banned From Tanning

Rob Lowe Banned From Tanning
Things aren’t looking too good for Rob Lowe on Brothers & Sisters. He already had a heart attack on the show and is now recovering from open heart surgery. According to Contact Music, execs from the network aren’t too happy with him because he is appearing way too tan so he has been given strict orders to stay out of the sun. Lowe dished:

“I got a phone call from the president of ABC who said, ‘You’re getting too dark. Seriously, stay out of the sun.’ I go, ‘I’m not tanning. I’m active. I surf and I kayak.’”

If you stand next to Calista Flockhart, anybody’s going to look like (singer) Harry Belafonte. I wear (sunscreen) over my entire face and a hat that has a chin strap. I look like the biggest idiot.”

Oh poor Rob - he has to protect his skin now. I still find it shocking that so many people want to tan these days when skin cancer is on the rise!

Rob, you don’t look like an idiot if you’re trying to protect yourself from getting skin cancer!

  • Please! It's not so much now, but during the second season, he was ORANGE! It was horrible, and completely fake. It completely ruined the succesful politician image that he is supposed to give... more a Paris Hilton-y look. Ew.

  • I've read that more people die from illnesses brought on by a lack of Vitamin D than die from skin cancer
