There's no such thing as a healthy tan, and that's what people need to understand.

I can't tan naturally.

Tanning is tricky, because a lot of people just look orange.

Since I have fair skin, I have to stay out of the sun. I can't stand the sun. I dyed my hair red for a while during the 1990s but I'm actually a natural blonde.

I get a good colour in summer but go really pale in winter, and it genuinely doesn't suit me, as people ask me if I'm ill. As well as making me look a bit better, I often have to be tanned in the middle of winter to do a show or programme, so I've road-tested every fake tan on the market.

I look better with a tan, but I've never gone the fake route. I don't need to - I have good foreign genes: half Spanish, half Hungarian.

Even though we all know the facts, it's hard to resist the lure of a tan.

None of us is responsible for the complexion of his skin. This fact of nature offers no clue to the character or quality of the person underneath.

When you're tan, you feel better about yourself.

I can tan. I get tannish. It's not really tan, it's tannish. That kind of color.
