The photo is bad enough, but prepare yourself before watching the video. What on EARTH has this woman done to herself?!?! Clearly, she has a problem. Don't know if her story is true or not, but no child (or adult) should be exposed to this mess. She's a living nightmare.
Patricia Krentcil Arrested For Putting 5-Year-Old Daughter In New Jersey Tanning Booth
Scary lady!!! She really does need help. Like the body builders that go to extremes and plastic surgery addicts. She seems not to be aware of how hideous she looks.
btw, Matt. LOVE your avatar <3
Is she wearing black lipstick or did she burn her lips off?
I saw her on GMA. She looks like she's doing "The Jolson Story."
That photo doesn't even do her justice. In the video she looks worse than the lady from Something About Mary. It was particularly terrifying on the news last night in HD.
She sort of freaked my 8 year old son out this morning when he saw her on the news.
This article about her court appearance today has a picture of how she looks now. At least she isn't in denial that she "tans excessively".
Tanning mom pleads not guilty
How does she not have some sort of cancer yet?
Yet. Doesn't have cancer yet. (I'm sure.)
I have dated a few guys from Nutley.. it is indeed a town full of crazies......
Dayum in that interview she looks like a walking melanoma!
To be honest....I could totally believe the mom's story. That the kid was WITH her, but not in the booth and the kid SAID she went tanning with her mom. To a 5 year old, that's what they did. They went tanning which could only mean: we went to the tanning booth and I waited until mom was done.
However, SOMEONE needs to intervene on the MOM's behalf. That's not normal.
The was an old woman who liv...was an old shoe...
It's Magda from "There's Something About Mary."
My town borders Nutley, and I will agree with Tink's assertion that it is "a town full of crazies". A little more info on Nutley - it was in the news a few years ago because the owner of a swim club turned away guests from a child's birthday because the guests were minorities. They pulled administrative strings to ensure a charter school for the arts was not established in their town, because it would draw minority students from other towns in the county. Worst of all, it's the hometown of Martha Stewart.
I saw her on a news show this morning and she looks 100% worse than that Something About Mary pic. Picture the hue of a bronze statue. Literally. Shiny and deep deep brown. It's creepy.
ETA: there's a pic on the other thread of her.
I wouldn't be surprised if she used a cream bronzer on top of everything else.
She's darker than a football.
Does Mom have body dysmorphic disorder? Clearly what she sees in the mirror is not what we see.

"Orlando, do you like it? It's 'Autumn Sunrise!'"
I think the state needs to examine her. Seriously. What sane person would go out in public looking like this?
Maybe she's in a stage production of Everybody Sing.
It really does look like black-face make up.
I wonder what she sees when she looks in the mirror.
Michael Jackson?
I mean I wonder if she can see what we all see. Or if she sees someone with a much lighter, much more attractive complexion.
