I was link-hopping while at work today and came across a photo album at the New York Daily News called "Tanorexia" which was pointing out the "over-tanning" of celebrities. I'm flipping through pictures and some of the choices already seem a bit strange to me. I can't stand orange white people -- it's not natural. So when I'm sitting there saying "oh they're not too bad" [like I did when they showed a picture of Hilary Duff, for example], I'm already a little suspect.

But then I get to picture #67 which blasts Rihanna for being too tan. The caption reads: "Rihanna channels Madonna in a lace-and-pearl getup, but the Material Girl never sported the Oompa Loompa look!"

Yes, this Rihanna:


W....what?

Seriously? What the fuck is wrong with people?

If I see the word "Oompa Loompa" one more time, I'm going to be sick.

Honestly.

Half those tans aren't that bad. It's just the Daily News trying to pick up something to bitch about. I hear it's their favorite activity.

Right? Haha. I do think there are instances when people actually DO look like oompa loompas. But overuse it much?
