Starting July 1, the ten percent federal indoor tanning tax goes into effect but that isn't stopping one famous bronzed face from slowing down his glow action.
MTV Jersey Shore star DJ Pauly D is going ahead with the auction of his tanning bed despite the tan tax and increased efforts to continue educating the public on the risks of indoor tanning.
