10 Celebrity Sunburn Mishaps That Actually Hurt to Look At

Celebrities usually pride themselves on looking put together most of the time, whether it's for a red carpet appearance or a quick coffee run. But when it comes to Summer, nobody is really safe from the dangerous rays of the hot sunshine. We can all apply sunscreen until the cows come home, but sometimes we forget, it washes off, or we've just been outside for too damn long. And since most stars like to document their vacations and days at the beach on social media, we get to see every moment up close (sometimes too close). To ease the pain (both literally and figuratively) of our own summertime mishaps, check out a few celebrities who also couldn't hide their sunburns.
