Shields' Rep Denies Fake Tan Halted 'Lipstick Jungle' Filming

REUTERS/Phil McCarten (UNITED STATES)

Brooke Shields' representatives have hit back at reports she has stalled filming on her latest TV show, "Lipstick Jungle," because of her excessive use of fake tanner.

The star was accused of lathering herself in fake tan by the show's guest star Leven Rambin, stating the actress was desperate to sport a bronzed look for scheduled sex scenes.

Rambin claims Shield went overboard with a tanning agent, turning herself orange and halting further filming on series.

However, Rambin's claim has been refuted by a spokesperson for Shields, who tells MSNBC.com's The Scoop the actress has never used self-tanning products: "This is totally not true. I don't think Brooke has ever even used self-tanner, much less allowed herself to turn orange from it. Please."

**a couple of things***

1. Why does Leven even care?

2. I lost respect for her

3. I want her now gone from AMC

What business is it of hers to comment on the status of Shields' show? Brooke should still be praised by millions for being brave enough to tell her story on suffering post partum depression and raising awareness on it.

Have you read Shields' book Down Came The Rain: My Journey Through Post Partum Depression? It is wonderful! She describes basically how I felt a couple of weeks after 9/11: sad, depressed, worthless, hated by people.

So I went to a doctor, he put me on Paxil, and in a couple of weeks I was back to my old self! ;)....9/11 happened during my senior year of high school. Thankfully, the above (worthless, hated) were not true. And I turned out to be the most popular person in my graduating class ;)

She also spoke out about Britney Spears at Fashion Week, despite the fact that people she was with told her to keep her mouth shut.

She is so talented in the role of Lily, but she is letting this fame go to her head. I get so sad when I read more and more news about her becoming one of the girls on the scene.

SOW (or SOD?) strongly hinted that something went down between Jeff and Leven and that's why Jeff would not finish out the remainder of his contract (although no doubt he was leaving in May anyways and he was unhappy with the writing so I doubt he cares too much).

I think if it's true then Julie Carruthers did it as a favor to Jeff knowing what a pain LR is...as opposed to Julie siding with Leven over Jeff.

Anyone else remember Leven making a big deal out of Jeff changing places at the AMC fan club luncheon a couple of years ago to sit with Chrishell Stause (which made sense to do since Jonathan was involved with Amanda at the time)?

And while this is purely anecdotal, a friend of mine was at the studio the day that AMC was officially given that "made in New York" honor and said that Leven was a real b*tch. Julie Carruthers was trying to talk to her and Leven kept brushing her off quite rudely because she was on her cell phone. And she was apparently throwing herself at James Scott the whole time!

Hello! She's a teenager! Why is everybody acting like she's supposed to be this refined, classy, dignified actress with a great wealth of life and world experience?

Damn. She's acting like a kid and making mistakes like a kid because... SHE'S A KID! The show shouldn't have been pairing a 30 year old actor with a 15 year old any damn way.

ummmm...Martha Bryne anyone?? She was a teenager and she didnt act like Ramblin does. I never liked Lily/Ava character. Maybe it was because of the way Rambin came off. I dont think she is all that of an actress either.

      As well as insulting our host, being rude to members who correct you, and having an inflated sense of duty. While others may be able to add numerous offenses, the egocentrism to force any conversation off-topic to focus on you is the most egregious act for me.  This is light entertainment, an interactive discussion, not the shallotpeel-hour.

      Yes, that is why. I mean, not last minute but it was not what Shapiro originally wanted. First, she tried to buy the show. Then she tried to buy the character. Meanwhile several other companies also tried to buy the show.

      I thought I had stopped & then I saw this post from you. To be clear I said I was wrong. I have not made an attempt at any backpedaling. There is literally no place to back pedal to. I did 3 things. I deleted. i apologized. I said I was wrong, egregiously so.

      I think bringing Dano back to OLTL as her original character Gretel/Rae was a last minute thing because P & G wouldn't let ABC use the Felicia character. So even though she had ties to OLTL from back in the day, she just didn't fit into the OLTL of the late 90s/early 00s.. nor did she really fit into the other soaps at ABC either.

      I don't think they were the biggest factor, but I do think there's a specific style to Dano's work that wasn't helped by how pointless her character often felt (and later on the various writers clearly saw the character as a joke).

      I think Evie came in mid 1976 after Rita broke up with Tim because she realized she was leading him on.  And Evie became upset with Rita because she didn't tell her that she had previously dated Tim before she came to town.

      Please stop, you were wrong, and you know it, now you're trying to back pedal. You even got called out by the DAYS actors/actresses on Twitter for that sh*t. It was disgusting and vile and IMO the family should have taken action against you It was clear the general public did not know about his illness and it was NOT your place to "spill the beans" just because you run a Facebook group, period! TBH IMO @Errol should have banned you ages ago Donna

      Another character driven show with interconnecting plots that make sense. I like that we go from one character, like Sarah, learning that EJ wants to buy the hospital, casually mentioning it to Xander who now has that intel. The only down today was not seeing Steve and Shawn breaking into the lab. I wonder if Dr Poofy Hair will inform EJ about Xander's call. I loved Abe talking to Chanel about losing Isaac and giving her comfort. And helping her voice her fears about Johnny. Kayla standing up to EJ is great. Kayla, freed from Ron, has been great. I am loving all her air time. And Sarah telling her that EJ must be up to something if he wants the hospital is very smart. She would probably clue in to the sepsis research being the big thing if she wasn't choking to death. I assume Felicity messed up the scones and dropped in cleaning fluid or something. Sarah said it tasted weird. They are never getting that honeymoon, are they? Xander has no clue what job Johnny can do. Johnny knows this too. Xander wants to legitimize his takeover by hiring a Dimera. Johnny wants to stick it to EJ. The honesty is refreshing. I want to like Cat and Chad but they are just so awkward. And none of their scenes work for me. Marlena and EJ was very good. I like her wanting to help him but also scared to death for Belle. Makes perfect sense that she is conflicted. I also liked her softly asking Johnny if he needed her to stay once EJ walked in. Ron never cared about this relationship either, but now she is acting like his granny.
