It wasn’t easy, but needing fame/money for legal fees, she obliged. “I’ve had moments where I’ve felt like, ‘I need to be tan.’ I did all the spray tans and lotions and creams, too – anything to get dark,” she said. “Once a doctor even told me to stop tanning. But I didn’t listen to him. I wanted to be dark. I like looking like I just got back from vacation.” After she quit for a month? It’s like she’s a new person. “I feel weird and pale,” Patricia Krentcil said, adding that, in the future, despite how good she looks now, she will likely “squeeze a tan in here or there.” Here or there or 20 times a week … give or take. TM became a media “darling” after being charged with felony child endangerment (she pleaded not guilty ) for putting her 5-year-old in an artificial tanning booth, so it’s no surprise that old habits die hard. She says she was “born to be tan.” And/or possibly do time. We’ll see.
