Man Wants to Tan Really, Really Badly

2008_8_12.tanningsuspect.jpgKevin Stepp, 41, was charged with disorderly conduct, reckless conduct and criminal damage to property after becoming angry and throwing a phone, which broke the glass countertop at Awesome Tan in Mundelein. Stepp was apparently denied tanning services August 3 after filing a complaint the week before, claiming he had been burned by one of the tanning beds. After a staffer refused to let him tan this time, Stepp spoke to a manager on the phone and began yelling, eventually becoming so incensed he allegedly threw the phone against a wall, which it bounced off of and then cracked the counter. Between Project Runway's Blayne and this dude, we're learning a lot about how seriously people take tanning. Also, his hair doesn't...not remind me of Keira Knightley's hair on the cover of Vogue.

heheeee! his hair DOES look like knightley's (btw what happened there? did the stylist walk? poor KK)

I am 99 per cent sure that is a toupee.

Either that or some sort of protective cap that he uses in the tanning bed.

I feel enlightanned upon reading this post. Does anyone else think Kiera Knightly's face looks a smidge fucked up? I feel like it's a photo manip between Keira and Natalie Portman...

Wait, there's really a place called "Awesome Tan?!" Best name ever!

It's actually second best, to Radical Tan

I want my tan dammit! And I want it NOW!!!!

he's just trying to get a base.

don't really care about Keira's hair there. more concerned about the half-shirt/half-dress/all-wtf she's got going on.

I think some one got TankBoy's picture mixed up

Ooh...wait "Tanfastic" ranks right up there.
