George Clooney, Married at 53
The notorious bachelor has finally settled down, and we’ve been loving this pair together. After meeting in September 2014, Clooney and his current wife Amal Alamuddin tied the knot after less than a year of dating.
The couple has since welcomed twin daughters into their family, and have a home full of love and laughter. The couple is quite private about their personal lives, but from what we know, this seems to be a happy marriage and a happy home. We’re cheering them on!
Harrison Ford, Married at 67
As one of the more stable Hollywood relationships, Harrison and Calista have been married since 2010. This is Ford’s third marriage, but that sure didn’t hold him back from pursuing love. This love has stood the test of time, and we’re beaming over it!
Over the years, we’ve seen this blended family come together and do beautiful things. From serving in the community to flying planes, Ford and Flockhart have shown Hollywood the beautiful simplicity of marriage without flashy drama or oversharing. We’re forever loving the Ford-Flockhart love!
Paris Hilton, Married at 40
After starting a relationship with her match in 2019, Paris Hilton and businessman Carter Reum got engaged in February 2012 and tied the knot a few months later in November. The couple had known each other for 15 years before they started dating. We guess Reum was playing the long game.
The couple welcomed their first baby to their family in January of 2023, and have been very vocal about their excitement about having a growing family. Hilton and Reum were able to have this baby via surrogate after attempts at IVF treatments. We know that they’re going to be the best parents!
Richard Gere, Married at 68
Now on his third marriage, we’re hoping that it’s the last! Richard Gere married Spanish activist Alejandra Silva in 2018 after starting a relationship in 2014. This match was truly made in heaven, as Gere has been a humanitarian himself for a long time.
The two have been married for over nine years and are still happy and thriving, despite the four-year age gap. That certainly hasn’t seemed to slow them down! The couple has had two kids together and they also parent Silva’s son, Albert, from a previous marriage.
Cameron Diaz, Married at 42
There’s just something about a man that can play the guitar, right? Well, Cameron Diaz got her dream romance in 2015 after meeting her husband, Benji Madden, just 10 months earlier! It must’ve been love at first sight!
Diaz and Madden welcomed their daughter, Raddix, into the world in 2019, and life has never been the same for this celebrity couple. Diaz shared in an interview that there is a “distinct difference between husbands and boyfriends.” There’s hope yet, ladies!
Paul McCartney, Married at 69
After two failed marriages, McCartney has landed his third wife, and this marriage seems just delightful. McCartney and his wife, Nancy Shevell, keep their personal lives quite private, so it’s unclear how and when the two lovebirds met. After dating for about four years, they put a ring on it in 2011 and tied the knot later that year.
Married for over 11 years, Paul shared that being “considerate and romantic” is the way to a healthier, happier marriage. We love this advice and hope for the same kind of relationship one day. What an incredible reminder that age is just a number, and love is in unlikely places.
Kirsten Dunst, Married at 40
After co-starring as a married couple in the FX series Fargo, co-stars Kirsten Dunst and Jesse Plemons decided to make this fantasy a reality. The couple got engaged in 2017 after meeting in 2016, and life kept happening!
Welcoming their first son into the world in 2018 and their second child in 2021, Dunst and Plemons finally tied the knot in July 2022. The family now splits their time between Texas and California, and loves living life together as a unit of four!
Julio Iglesias, Married at 67
After dating his partner of 20 years, model Miranda Rijnsburger, Iglesias finally married the love of his life and the mother of five of his kids, in 2010. It was said to be love at first sight, and honestly, this looks like eternal love to us!
The couple has made their home in Marabella, Spain, where they have a joy-filled home with their children. This Dutch model has aged beautifully and is an incredible mother to her children and wife to her husband.
Prince Albert II of Monaco, Married at 53
South African Olympic swimmer, Charlene Wittstock, joined royalty but her story has been far from a fairytale. Prince Albert was already a father to two love children before he and Wittstock got together when rumors of a third started circulating while this couple was engaged.
When this info was leaked, Wittstock allegedly tried to escape her upcoming wedding – three times – before the big day. With a wedding day full of tears and a honeymoon spent in separate hotel rooms, this marriage seemed far from happy. Bringing their own children into the family seems to have brought them the unity that they needed.
Marcia Cross, Married at 44
Stockbroker Tom Mahoney put a ring on it in August 2005, and by June 2006, Mr. and Mrs. Tom Mahoney were introduced to the world. The couple welcomed fraternal twin daughters into their family in February 2007 after months of IVF treatments, and the happy family has been, well, happy ever since.
Life hasn’t been without its hurts for these two, though. Both Mahoney and Cross have walked through battles with illnesses. The two are stronger than ever and taking on their “new normal” one day at a time.
Barbra Streisand, Married at 56
Set up on a blind date back in 1996, this match is coming up on 25 years of marriage, and still going strong! When they met, both Streisand and Brolin had children from previous marriages, and blended their families two years later after getting married in Streisand’s Malibu backyard.
Nowadays, the couple supports each other at various award banquets and honorary ceremonies. They like to spend their off-time soaking up all of the grandchildren’s snuggles and spoiling them as any grandparents do. Cheers to lasting love!
Jennifer Lopez, Married at 53
“Bennifer” was the comeback of the century and living proof that love has no expiration date. Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez started dating back in 2002 and broke off their engagement in 2004.
These stars have since then rekindled their first love story in 2021 and went through with that wedding that they started planning 20 years ago. We’re excited about the reinstatement of Bennifer and can’t wait to see what’s next for this perfect couple!
Elton John, Married at 67
Now on his second marriage, Elton John seems happier than ever! John and his now husband, David Furnish, announced their plans to wed in 2005 after John proposed to his beloved.
This unique pair had their romantic first date with Chinese takeout, and they’ve never looked back since! This love is a good reminder that love doesn’t have to be flashy or elegant to be true. Love can be Chinese takeout and sweatpants on a rainy Thursday afternoon, too.
Bruce Willis, Married at 54
This marriage has really stood through thick and thin. Actor Bruce Willis and his wife, Emma Heming Willis, have walked through life together since meeting at the gym, and haven’t turned back. The couple has welcomed two daughters into their family and renewed their vows after 10 years of marriage together.
About three years after their vow renewal, the Willis family shared that Bruce had been diagnosed with a language disorder called aphasia in 2022. In February 2023, his diagnosis was made more clear as it became dementia. This couple has a long uphill battle ahead of them, but we’re cheering them on every step of the way!
Daniel Craig, Married at 43
After falling in love on the set of Dream House, this celeb couple has been together for over a decade, and we celebrate that! Daniel Craig and his current wife, Rachel Weisz, met back in the ’90s when they were still up-and-coming actors.
By 2011, this sweet pair secretly tied the knot, and in 2018 they announced that they were expecting their first child together. The couple is quite private about their marriage and family life, but a decade of marriage speaks to the love that they have for one another.
John Stamos, Married at 54
We’ve all had a crush on John Stamos at some point in our lives, but it’s Caitlin McHugh that’s caught this hunky man’s heart! After meeting on the set of Law and Order: SVU, this couple made all of their happily-ever-after dreams come true with a gorgeous wedding in February 2018 and the birth of their son just a couple of months later.
This family makes parenting look good, and they make marriage look even better. We’re anxiously awaiting more Stamos-McHugh babies! Just scroll through the comments section on McHugh’s Instagram posts, and you’ll see example after example of Stamos gushing over his wife. That’s what we like to see!
Kourtney Kardashian, Married at 43
The Kardashians have been huge influencers in the reality TV world for over a decade, and in 2021, Kourtney brought Travis Barker onto the scene. Just one month after their red carpet couple debut, the couple was engaged during an incredibly romantic beachside proposal.
The duo said their “I dos” in May 2022, and the rest is history. From an intimate Santa Barbara wedding to their bigger ceremony in Portofino, Italy, this couple knows how to tie the knot with glamor.
Kathy Griffin, Married at 59
Kathy Griffin may be a comedian, but her marriage is certainly no joke! Ringing in the new year with a new husband, Griffin and Randy Bick tied the knot in 2020 during a small ceremony officiated by Lily Tomlin.
The couple was full of joy and couldn’t stop laughing – which is just what we like to see! After years of dating and a surprise marriage, we’re excited for their long love and all that it will bring!
Jessica Chastain, Married at 40
The heartbreak of a long-term relationship separation with writer-director Ned Benson sure didn’t keep Chastain from finding love! A couple of years after her breakup, in 2012, Chastain started dating Gian Luca Passi de Preposulo.
Gian Luca is an Italian Count and Moncler executive… Yes, you read that right. Chastain officially married into royalty five years later and welcomed two beautiful daughters into the family. Let’s just say that she found a love worth waiting for!
Nicolas Cage, Married at 57
After tying the knot in February 2021, Nicolas Cage and Riko Shibata welcomed their first daughter together in September of 2022. Now, this is Cage’s fifth marriage, but he’s said that he thinks he got it right this time.
One quirky tidbit about this couple’s story is that they got engaged over FaceTime, and Cage shipped the engagement ring to her via FedEx. It’s a good thing that the package didn’t get lost in shipping!
Robert Redford, Married at 72
As a twice-married man, Robert Redford sealed the deal with his current wife, Sibylle Szaggars, in 2009. This marriage has given him a new excitement for life – maybe it’s because of the near two-decade age difference?
After dating for 12 years, Redford finally proposed, and the couple has stuck together ever since. They enjoy activities like horseback riding, playing tennis, and skiing. It seems that this marriage still has a bountiful life to be lived!
Amy Adams, Married at 41
Actress Amy Adams found her Enchanted love story match. Back in 2001, she met painter and actor Darren Le Gallo in an acting class and they started dating shortly after. Amy got her dream ring in 2008, and seven years later she got a husband and daughter to go with it!
With a love story that’s spanned over two decades, this pair has longevity that makes marriage feel like a dream. Their family life and marriage seem to be thriving, and we’re celebrating that alongside them!
Vincent Cassel, Married at 51
Tying the knot in the most romantic place in the world, France, Vincent Cassel and model Tina Kunakey swapped vows in 2018. They’ve been happily married and exploring the world together ever since.
Newlywed bliss hasn’t worn off for these two lovebirds, and it looks good on them! They’ve even been seen cuddling in the back of water taxis in Venice. What a fairytale!
Hugh Grant, Married at 58
Hugh Grant and his wife, Anna Eberstein, are notoriously quiet about their private life, but we love what we have seen. Grant has five children, three of which came from his current marriage with Eberstein.
Grant has stepped into this role as a husband and a dad, especially considering that he never thought he’d be married or become a parent. The happy couple keeps to themselves for the most part, and have been married since 2018. We’re cheering these lovers on!
Dennis Quaid, Married at 66
Now on his fourth marriage, Quaid tied the knot again in June 2022 during a secret elopement with his now-wife Laura Savoie. This love is an exciting one! Quaid comments on his wife’s character, intelligence, and values while Savoie shares that Dennis has a love for life that makes even mundane moments exciting.
It sounds like this couple has many adventures and celebrations to come! We’re excited about their love and inspired by Quaid for not giving up on love, even after a few tries.
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Married at 47
After meeting and starting to date on the set of The Game Plan in 2007, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson finally popped the question 12 years later in 2019. This couple has now been together for over 17 years and is looking forward to a lifetime of partnership and friendship together.
With two daughters brought into their family throughout their dating relationship, we’ve loved watching their love literally multiply. We cannot wait to watch their love story as this couple grows old together.
Katie Couric, Married at 57
Legendary news anchor, Katie Couric lost her first husband, Jay Monahan, back in 1998. After nine years of marriage and two daughters together, many of us remember how devastating this was. It took Couric years to find love again.
In 2012, Couric crossed paths with her current husband, John Molner, and he had her at “hello.” The couple was engaged the following year (which was a surprise to Couric) and married in 2014. This second shot at love is a beautiful story!
Julianne Moore, Married at 43
Married in 2003 after welcoming two children into the world, Julianne Moore and director Bart Freundlich make the image of a Hollywood family look so normal. We love the way that Moore and Freundlich make daily things like grocery shopping and holding hands down the street look so full of joy.
Moore commented “I feel happy that my marriage is thriving and intact,” as she and Freundlich approach 20 years of marriage together. It shows, girl! Watching Moore laugh until she cries with her sweet hubby by her side makes all of us hopeless romantics feel hopeful!
Warren Beatty, Married at 54
Now married for over three decades, it seems that actors Warren Beatty and Annette Bening did something right. The couple met on the set of the film Bugsy and within minutes, Beatty knew that he was going to marry Bening one day.
Now over 30 years and four children later, this marriage is still growing, and the couple typically keeps their personal lives private. Bening has shared, though, that the secret to a long and healthy marriage is to do unexpected things every day to keep the marriage surprising. Well noted, Annette!
Vince Vaughn, Married at 40
Vaughn married his sweetheart Kyla Weber in 2010 after a nine-month engagement following the pair meeting at a friend’s wedding. Interestingly, Kyla isn’t even in the entertainment industry!
This sweet couple now has two children in the mix and likes to keep life silly. It seems that the Vaughn household keeps things fun and lighthearted. Oh, to be a fly on the wall in their home!
Jeff Goldblum, Married at 62
Now married to the gorgeous retired Olympic gymnast Emilie Livingston, Jeff seems happier than ever. This couple seems like they’re just crazy about each other! Since getting married in 2014, they’ve welcomed two lovely children into their lives.
This unlikely match met at the gym, and they say that the rest is history. We guess that if you needed a reason to get off your couch and head to the gym, this reason may be good enough!
RuPaul, Married at 56
This famous drag queen finally married his perfect match, Georges LeBar, after being together for almost three decades. The couple had a secret wedding ceremony on their 23rd anniversary.
Now the couple is more than five years into marriage and still seems to be flourishing. Unlike RuPaul, LeBar prefers not to stand in the spotlight too much and keeps his affairs fairly quiet. Show business isn’t for everyone!
Ellen DeGeneres, Married at 50
Everyone loves Ellen! We bet you can’t name one person that doesn’t! In 2008, Degeneres popped the question to her partner Portia de Rossi.
Three months later, the two walked down the aisle and said their “I dos” at an intimate ceremony in their home in Los Angeles. This marriage has brought both DeGeneres and de Rossi confidence and safety that they hadn’t felt before. That’s what marriage is all about, right?
Mariska Hargitay, Married at 40
Hargitay is a prime example of something good happening when you mix business with pleasure, and we’re here for it! Hargitay met her current husband and fellow actor Peter Hermann while filming Law & Order: SVU.
Since their wedding in 2004, the happy couple has welcomed three children into their family; one biologically and two through adoption. This beautiful love story shows Hollywood the normal chaos of juggling children, marriage, careers, and more. We support these SVU sweethearts all the way!
George Takei, Married at 71
After three decades of being together, George Takei and his husband Brad Altman are making up for the lost time. The couple spent 20 years hiding their relationship in fear that it’d be the end of Takei’s career.
In 2005, that all changed. Their relationship was shared with the public, and the two made plans to marry each other as the final chapter of their love story of a lifetime.
Susie Essman, Married at 53
Comedian Susie Essman married her sweetheart, Jim Harder, in 2008, and things have never been the same for this sweet family! The couple met around Thanksgiving of 2003 when a mutual friend brought them along on a shopping trip. Essman didn’t know she was shopping for a husband that day!
Through long-distance and living in different cities, their love story has stood the test of time. They haven’t had children of their own, but Essman has loved her husband’s four kids (from a previous marriage) as if they were her own. We love their love!
Vanessa Williams, Married at 52
As a mom of four and a three-time wifey, Vanessa Williams has finally settled down with Jim Skrip since their wedding day in 2015. After meeting while vacationing in Egypt, the two ate dinner together outside of Williams’ hotel, and she was hooked!
Just one year after their tour guide in Egypt introduced them to each other, the two were engaged and getting excited about all things wedding-related. They actually had two weddings, as if one wasn’t enough! They’re still going strong, and we’re loving it!
Britney Spears, Married at 40
Sam Asghari played the long game with a five-year courtship with Britney Spears. The couple finally said their vows and recited their “I dos” in June 2022. The couple met on the set of Spears’ music video “Slumber Party,” and they never looked back!
The star-studded wedding ceremony was an unforgettable crowd celebrating an unforgettable day. This marriage is the perfect example of good things taking time. We’re excited about this dynamic duo and hopeful for a long, joyful marriage!
Dick Van Dyke, Married at 86
At a whopping 46 years apart in age, Dick Van Dyke and his wife Arlene Silver aren’t letting that hold them back! The couple married in 2012 in a private ceremony near Malibu. They followed that with a more extravagant ceremony with a “seafoam circus” theme.
The age gap threw a lot of people off, but Van Dyke shares that Silver is an absolute angel. Their marriage is full of fun, dancing, singing, cooking, and making the home a lively place of celebration.
Brad Pitt, Married at 50
Although his marriage to Angelina Jolie ended in 2019, Brad Pitt still makes the list. Once considered the “it” couple of Hollywood, this couple dated for 12 years before their brief two-year marriage began.
The former couple had six children together, three biologically, and three adopted. Jolie filed for divorce in 2016, and there have been legal battles ever since, primarily over custody of the children. This divorce has been a rocky one, and things still haven’t slowed down.
Valerie Bertinelli, Married at 50
Sadly, this marriage is no longer intact as Valerie Bertinelli filed for divorce from her second husband, Tom Vitale, in 2021 after 10 years of marriage. Listing “irreconcilable differences” as the main cause, the divorce was officially recognized in November 2022.
Bertinelli now considers herself a “happily divorced” woman and is looking forward to not being married again after this second divorce.
Salma Hayek, Married at 42
Hayek shows women that you really can do it all! Back in March of 2007, Hayek not only said “yes” to CEO Francois-Henri Pinault but did it while pregnant with their first child! That September, the couple welcomed their daughter into their growing family, and they recited their vows in 2009.
If getting married in Paris on Valentine’s Day wasn’t romantic enough, the couple took it up a notch when they renewed their vows in Venice a couple of months later. Now, that love is a fairytale kind of love!
Bill Nye, Married at 66
Bill Nye is no longer “The Science Guy,” but “The Married Guy!” Nye tied the knot with author and journalist, Liza Mundy, in 2022. Their love was solidified over their shared interest in learning, teaching, and storytelling.
And of course, it only makes sense that a Star Trek actor – Robert Picardo – officiated their wedding. This is a chemistry that we hope lasts forever!
Alec Baldwin, Married at 54
With over 10 years of marriage and seven children together, Baldwin’s marriage with Hilaria Baldwin has weathered the storm time and time again. Both Alec and Hilaria have been under fire, but this family has stuck through it all together as a unit.
Although their love story got off to a slow start, it clearly worked for them. The couple was engaged and married by the end of 2012. After that, they got busy introducing beautiful babies into the world. We’re inspired by this family’s unity through thick and thin!
Chloë Sevigny, Married at 45
An actress and an art director… it just makes sense. Actress Chloë Sevigny started dating her beloved art gallery director Siniša Mačković in 2018. They announced that they were expecting a beautiful son at the beginning of 2020. The couple had an intimate wedding ceremony just a few months before their son was born.
In May 2022, the couple re-wed in a larger, dreamier ceremony. They marked their momentous marriage with more grandeur and were surrounded by the people that they love. There’s no other way to celebrate a celeb wedding than with an extravagant bash!
25+ Worst Celebrity Spray Tans They Want Us to Forget
Chrissy Teigen
Chrissy Teigen prides herself on being relatable. Well, as relatable as a supermodel married to John Legend can be. She hit the nail on the head with this Snapchat post, though, because we’ve all messed up some bed sheets with our fake tanner.
Chrissy is basically providing a public service here, as this photo is reminding us to always have a quick shower after using spray tan. It’s also reminding us to do some squats today.
Christina Aguilera
We may not be able to relate to perfectly singing Etta James’s “At Last” as a tribute. However, we can relate to Christina Aguilera’s fake tanner running down her legs. While many tabloids tore into Christina, a source who was there made it clear that Aguilera’s priorities are in order.
”She sang her heart out. It was a memorial service for her idol and she was nervous. It was her proudest moment. The sweat caused her spray tan to streak.” Really, who hasn’t suffered a beauty blunder because of nerves?
Kim Kardashian
It seems that Kim Kardashian has committed a tanning blunder we can all learn from. Based on the color difference between her hand and her face, we can only assume that she switched spray tan brands in the middle.
While it’s wise to use separate tanner for your face than your body, you should always stick to the same brand throughout, so you won’t end up with these mix-matched results. Well, Kim — you live and you learn.
Snooki
Really, it’d be fair to put the entire cast of Jersey Shore on this list, but since Snooki’s the star, we’ll let her represent the team. We all know that the wild group loves their GTL (gym, tan, laundry) time, but it seems that they have a tendency to overdo the T part.
While we may not love this look, it’s an improvement from the tanning beds Snooki used to frequent. At least spray tan isn’t dangerous. You know what? You do you, Snooki!
Claire Danes
Claire Danes showed up to the 2016 Emmys in an absolutely stunning gold dress. Unfortunately, her skin color was trying a little too hard to outshine Claire’s frock. Between the gold garment, Danes’s blonde hair, and the fake tanner, the actress appeared to be very monochromatic — and not in a good way.
It seems that she had gotten the spray tan done right before attending the event, so it hadn’t yet finished developing. Take note, your tan should never be applied at the last minute.
Victoria Beckham
Between the bleached hair, the tanned skin, and the chest augmentation, Victoria Beckham looked entirely different in her Spice Girls days. To be fair, that was the style back then, while today’s celebrities prefer a more understated look. Victoria’s gotten with the times, though.
“I don’t wear a fake tan anymore. Sometimes, I’ve been turned orange but that’s definitely a look from my past. Being overly tanned is very aging and, dare I say it, a bit footballer’s wife. Embrace your natural color!”
Lea Michele
We have to say that Lea Michele’s overdone tan at the 2022 Tony Awards is being blown way out of proportion. While it’s definitely not the most flattering of looks, a lot of celebrities have made tanning blunders and haven’t been called out this harshly.
Some people even went as far as to say that Lea’s fake tan comes off as racist! We can’t speak about Michele as a person, but it’s pretty clear to us that this look is just an unfortunate fake tan and nothing more.
Jessica Simpson
Jessica Simpson is another celebrity who’s fallen victim to the late ‘90s/early 2000s tanning craze, but she’s since changed her tune. ”There are a lot of things I’ve worn and look back on and think, ‘Oh, my.’ When it comes to beauty, I think a big misconception is the tanner you are, the more beautiful you are.”
She continued, “It’s not always true. I look back on a lot of pictures where I’m really tan, and I’m like, ‘Whoa!”’ To clarify, she’s talking strictly about fake tan and not natural skin color.
Lady Gaga
We all remember how Lady Gaga used to look when she first came out onto the music scene. There were meat dresses, showing up to the Grammys in an egg, and a lot of bad tans. Those were wild times!
Gaga has since changed her style, after making a comeback that’s focused more on acting and less on the shock factor. We love Mother Monster however she graces our screens! That being said, we’re not exactly sad to see this look go.
Paris Hilton
Paris Hilton’s tan was overdone here, which is a common enough mistake, but it also came off a bit splotchy. It looks like she layered her fake tan over an existing one, which is a big no-no. A good way to avoid the splotched look is to wait for the first tan to fade before applying a new one.
Otherwise, the new color will only highlight the breakup of the old color. Paris may live a simple life (get it?), but perfecting a fake tan is actually pretty complicated!
Miley Cyrus
It seems that Miley Cyrus forgot she has hands when she was applying her tanner. The singer/actress’s entire body appears to be sun-kissed, except for her hands and inner arms. We like to give the benefit of the doubt, but hands are a pretty hard body part to forget about!
Miley seems to agree, as the pop star laughed along with the rest of us and showed her blunder off to the paparazzi. We may not ask her for tanning advice, but we can definitely learn from her positive attitude!
Jennifer Lawrence
It’s unclear if Jennifer Lawrence’s look at the 2014 Paris Fashion Week is due to a fake tan or poorly done makeup. Either Jennifer used a spray tan that’s way too dark for her face, or she’s wearing a foundation that needs to be a shade or two lighter.
Either way, her face simply didn’t match the rest of her body, nor did she really look like herself. That’s okay, JLaw — we can’t win them all!
Lindsay Lohan
Lindsay Lohan used to be really into the overly-tanned look. Weren’t we all, at some point? It was around that time that the media was particularly brutal towards her. It was even famously reported how much Lohan was allegedly spending on various fake tanning products!
We don’t see how that’s anyone’s concern other than Lindsay’s. Moreover, can’t we let a bad tan be just that — a bad tan? There’s no need to turn it into a scandal.
Ellie Goulding
We don’t need to tell Ellie Goulding that this particular look wasn’t exactly her best — she already knows. The singer once referenced this image in an interview, saying, “There was one incident where I wore a pink dress, pink hair, pink everything and I was the brownest I’ve ever been.”
She now says that she considers a bad fake tan to be the worst of beauty blunders. That, folks, is how you learn from your mistakes!
Ryan Reynolds
Ryan Reynolds is so beloved because he doesn’t take himself too seriously. That’s why Twitter blowing up over his fake tan at the 2017 Golden Globes was so funny because Ryan was most definitely laughing along! Some of the best tweets include, “Ryan Reynolds is me trying to spray tan for the first time.”
There’s also, “Y’all wanna talk about Ryan Reynolds spray tan or…” And even, “Ryan Reynolds’ spray tan reminds me of one of the greatest Friends episodes of all time…” You know the one!
Amber Portwood
This image of Teen Mom’s Amber Portwood just goes to show that we can’t believe everything we see online. Amber’s known to overdo it with the fake tanner. However, many insist that her spray tans aren’t actually this bad.
Some believe that this image was manipulated in order to make Portwood’s face appear darker than it really was. Others say that this is genuinely how the reality star likes to apply her tan. Either way, it’s a little much.
Kylie Jenner
Kylie Jenner seems to have committed the same fake tan faux pas as her sister, Kim Kardashian. Just like big sis, Kylie’s hands don’t match her face.
It’s worth noting that Jenner has recently ditched the self-tanner and uploaded a series of more natural-looking photos to her social media. Fans have been delighted with the real Kylie and we have to say that, like with most people, less is more for the reality star.
Christina Aguilera (Again)
Sadly, Christina Aguilera didn’t learn from fellow pop star Miley Cyrus’s mistake and she, too, forgot one of her body parts. Christina applied her fake tan everywhere, except for her armpit.
We get it, we don’t spend a lot of time thinking about our armpits either. After all, it’s not exactly the most exciting bit of anatomy. However, when applying tanner, you’ve got to consider every single body part — even the less appealing ones. Tanning blunder or not, Aguilera still looks gorgeous!
Kelly Osbourne
Kelly Osbourne once said that her biggest fear about fake tanner is that she’d end up looking like a Jersey Shore cast member. While we don’t think that fear was realized, we do think that she looks like she’s filming a live-action of The Simpsons or The Minions.
While some people’s fake tans turn orange, others turn yellow. That’s okay, Kelly — it’ll wear off and you’ll be back to your beautiful self in no time!
Mel Gibson
It seems that Mel Gibson is just as bad at applying fake tanner as he is at keeping his controversial rants to himself. Yeah, we went there. We’re not saying we’re happy to see the actor sporting such an embarrassing look, but we’re also not unhappy about it.
It appears that Mel has overdone both the fake tanner and the teeth whitening. The result is that Gibson resembles an overgrown Ken doll — Retired Ken, if you will. Oy vey!
Ryan Seacrest
Ryan Seacrest has always looked like the poster boy of a stereotypical 2000’s California surfer dude. The frosted tips, teeth so white they could glow in the dark, and the overdone fake tan.
We can’t fault him, though. It was the look back in the day! As the saying goes — ‘don’t hate the payer, hate the game.’ Well, don’t hate the overly tanned celebrity, hate the popular style of looking like an Oompa Loompa.
Kate Hudson
Kate Hudson was all of us when she accidentally ruined a lovely pair of pajamas with her spray tan. The actress posted this photo on her Instagram with the caption, “Note to self (because most people would know better)… Don’t wear white PJs to bed after spray tan #VacaReady.”
Now we’ve learned from Kate not to wear pajamas with a fake tan, and we know from Chrissy Teigen not to sleep in the nude with fake tanner. It looks like we’re going to have to buy some orange pajamas!
Hulk Hogan
Hulk Hogan’s bad tan isn’t entirely his own fault, as that’s the look that’s expected in professional wrestling. Luckily, he’s able to laugh about it, along with the rest of us. Hulk posted a photo on his social media with the sarcastic caption, “I was never tan enough brother.”
He’s also taken to Twitter with a picture of himself in the ring, saying, “Something about that Florida Sun Tan not to mention the Pump Brother HH.” That tan may not be in style but the self-awareness most definitely is!
Keira Knightley
Keira Knightley’s look at the premiere of A Dangerous Method was a bit ironic, as she used the dangerous method of applying fake tanner herself. The actress, understandably, struggled to reach the entirety of her back, creating a pretty splotchy look.
Of course, Keira was still beautiful as always, but she’d probably look even better if she’d requested some assistance. Or, if she’d opted for a dress that wasn’t backless. Well, there’s always next time!
George Clooney
George Clooney likes to look sun-kissed but, sometimes, he looks like he was kissed by a certain country’s leader. It appears that George is making two distinct tanning mistakes that we can all learn from.
Number one, always make sure your skin is moisturized before applying a fake tan. Number two, use different levels of tanner according to the season. Part of why no one’s buying Clooney’s “naturally tanned” shtick is because he looks like that all year round!
Kylie Jenner (Again)
We all know that the Kardashians gotta Kardashian! Kylie Jenner is no exception, as the reality star posted this photo on her Instagram.
The image is both equal parts thirst trap and shameless advertisement, as Kylie captioned it, “Used my @cocoabrowntan earlier from @marissacarter I love it. Shows results in 1 hour #SelfTan #CocoaBrown #1HourTan.” While we respect the hustle, we think the promotion would’ve been more effective if Jenner wasn’t covered in white splotches from a bad tanner application.
Bradley Cooper
Bradley Cooper could’ve used a little more love from his stylist at the Valentine’s Day premiere. The actor’s face appeared nicely tanned from the front, but once he turned his head to the side… you could see that the spray tan was only applied to half his face!
It seems that Cooper overestimated the power of his beard, and thought it’d cover all the skin around his jaw and neck, eliminating the need for fake tanner on those spots. Sorry, Bradley — you were sorely mistaken.
Ariana Grande
We’re all pretty used to Ariana Grande overdoing the fake tanner by now, as that’s become a part of her signature look. However, the pop star suffered a rare spray tan mishap when she attended Boots’ beauty brand launch.
Ariana’s tan looked quite splotchy around her chest and shoulders, and some people claim they can even see finger marks from where she touched the tanner before it dried! Note to self, make sure your spray tan is completely dry before scratching an itch.
Selena Gomez
Selena Gomez realizes that her spray tan at the 2018 Met Gala was pretty over the top. Selena hilariously posted a video on Instagram highlighting how she feels about the look. The video features the pop star running away and it was captioned, “Me when I saw my pictures from MET.”
That’s pretty much all our reactions when we look through photos from our teenage years (word to the wise, don’t check your old MySpace). So don’t worry, Selena — you’re in good company!
Cristiano Ronaldo
Cristiano Ronaldo may be an incredible talent in the soccer world but he’s a bit less skilled in the applying fake tanner world. That’s okay, Cristiano — we’re not great at either one!
Interestingly, Ronaldo is setting up a launch of a skincare/anti-aging products line, which will include a fan tanner called Tan of the Match. While this product is ingeniously named, perhaps it would benefit from slightly less heavy advertising on one man’s body.
Jennifer Aniston
Jennifer Aniston showed us what her glamorous life is really like when she posted a video on her Instagram warning fans against making her same tanning mistake. The video featured Jennifer’s team trying to scrub the spray tan off the actress’s foot.
Meanwhile, Aniston warned her viewers, “Hands and feet, you must lotion before a spray tan, otherwise… you end up with a situation.” The most perfect part of this, though, was one sharp fan’s comment, “Ross didn’t tell you about spray tans?” Touché.
Simon Cowell
Simon Cowell committed the worst tanning sin possible back in 2016 — putting his spray tan before his responsibilities. We completely understand that getting ready for the day can take quite a bit of time, especially when you know you’re going to be on TV.
However, planning properly can ensure that people actually appreciate your appearance, rather than being annoyed by it. Unfortunately, Simon doesn’t agree. He kept his Britain’s Got Talent fans waiting a whole hour while he secured this look in a tanning booth.
Chrissy Teigen (Again)
Chrissy Teigen took the opportunity of #ThrowbackThursday to remind us all of the tan she sported for the 2008 Grammys. The supermodel captioned this image, “Grammys 2008. 10 years ago. This tan!!!”
Like anyone who’s been married for a while, Chrissy felt the need to poke fun at her husband, too. She pointed out that John Legend looks like Count Chocula in this photo. If a bad tan paired with a silly suit isn’t couple goals, we don’t know what is!
Al Pacino
Al Pacino showed up to the House of Gucci premiere in a look that the Gucci fashion house wouldn’t exactly approve of. The actor was pretty orange and even had sunglasses lines around his eyes.
We don’t even know how you get sunglasses lines with a spray tan! Did he think it works like regular tanning and you need to protect your eyes? Or maybe this was his way of convincing us that the tan was natural? Sorry, Al — we’re not buying it.
Brooklyn Decker
Brooklyn Decker found herself in a dilemma when she realized she had to do a workout right after she’d applied her fake tan. The model thought she’d found a solution when she decided to exercise in a bathing suit, so her workout clothes wouldn’t smudge the tan.
We get the logic, but it seems that Brooklyn forgot about one thing that’s inevitable with a good gym session — sweat. She learned the hard way, as by the end of the workout, Decker’s tan was a streaky mess!
There’s something special about young love, there’s no doubt about it. But what about those of us that need a few tries to find the right fit? These celebrities have proven to us that love wins, and it can be found in surprising places and at any age. Join us as we swoon over these sweet couples and cheer on their love. They never gave up on finding it, and neither will we!
