Gisele Bundchen takes on the Sun and off the Sunscreen



Gisele Bundchen is at it again. This time, the Brazilian Goddess of the sun is attacking one of it's worshipers, sunscreen companies.  


She was quoted as saying:

'I cannot put this poison on my skin,' the 30-year-old said. 'I do not use anything synthetic.'
Bundchen claims she only exposes herself to the sun before 8am when it's still too weak to do any damage. Nerds of the world, combine your powers to bring down the wicked Large Mouther Witch of the Southern Hemisphere and find pictures proving this wrong.  


Then again, I wouldn't be surprised if Ms. Gisele could tell the sun off and make it go back to 8am.  Remember your place you big ball of gas!


The National Cancer Institute of Brazil obviously had something to say about Gisele's new foot in mouth comment.  
"Sunscreen prevents damage to the skin and is of fundamental importance for the prevention of cancer. This is not any poison, when a public person makes a statement like this, it creates confusion."
Now maybe she does follow the 8am rule. If I made gazillions off of my looks, I would hide under a rock if I needed to. But something tells me, like her tan lines, that 8am is just not happening.

Maybe sunscreen is full of nasty shit, like everything else. But something inside me says that cancer is much nastier.  Ah well, to each there own.

Study: Many Sunscreens May Be Accelerating Cancer - AOL News

Study: Many Sunscreens May Be Accelerating Cancer - AOL News

My boys and I use sunscreen almost daily. I'm a little more relaxed in the winter but in the summer, I'm hardcore about it.

Of course that's not all I do to protect my boys. They aren't allowed out between 11am and 2 pm during the summer. No sun. It's just too strong.

Take care of yourselves people!
