Yesterday we got to see a few RIDICULOUS photos of Manchester United soccer player Cristiano Ronaldo showing off his fried chicken legs as he hobbled on crutches at the Ed Hardy boutique in West Hollywood, CA and today we get to check out a couple more photos of the Portuguese phenom doing what he seems to love best … frying his epidermis:

Football star Cristiano Ronaldo clearly enjoys sporting the bronzed look. But the Manchester United and Portuguese international appears to have taken his love of tanning too far as he turned a distinct shade of mahogany from his daily sunbathing sessions in Los Angeles. Ronaldo has spent his break since the premiere season’s end last month sunning himself. First on holiday with ex-girlfriend Nereida in Sardinia, and now in Los Angeles. But despite acquiring the desired bronzed look some weeks ago, the star footballer is still soaking up the sun on a daily basis. Ronaldo’s once sunkissed skin has now turned a decidedly much darker hue, but the 23-year-old appears to be addicted to the suns rays, lying out in the sun on a daily basis. Ronaldo is recuperating in Los Angeles after an operation on his ankle.

Yeah, methinks that Cristiano should really start to be concerned about all this suntanning. Absent the fact that he could contract a nasty case of skin cancer, his skin looks like it’s about 4 minutes away from turning into leather. It’s not a good look. The darker he becomes the more I think about the Season 5 Project Runway contestant Blayne and his insane love of suntanning — he must be seething with jealousy … dare I say, he’s “green” with envy?
