Special Security Details Needed To Protect Charlie Hunnam From Crazed <i>50 Shades of Grey</i> Fans

The Hollywood Reporter recently, well, reported that extra security surrounded Charlie Hunnam at the premiere for this season’s Sons of Anarchy. Those buff new bodyguards came thanks to his casting as Christian Grey in the forthcoming 50 Shades of Grey flick — and over at The Atlantic, it’s being speculated the reason for the hired muscle is not just to keep Hunnam a safe distance from giddy admirers wanting to nuzzle his sexy beard growth.

Apparently, he also needs protection from fervent fans of the erotic novels who aren’t happy with his forthcoming portrayal.

They aren’t happy at all. Online petitions to replace him with someone more suited for the books’ racy S&M action have exceeded 80,000 signatures.

A sampling of the petitions’ haters: “Charlie Hunnam looks dirty and very unappealing,” –Corinne from Carmi, IL.

“My first choice is Ian Somerhalder but Matt Boomer [sic] would also be a very good choice. Much better than Charlie whatever.” –Emily from Yonkers, NY

“BECAUSE THAT CHARLIE HUNNAM IS A FUCKING FAILURE I KNOW IT I JUST KNOW IT”—Rae from Quezon City, Philippines

I mean, jeez, don’t hold back Rae. Incidentally, this is my favorite signee: “[signing] to keep my wife happy” –Michael from Harleysville, PA And in conclusion, Hunnam needs all the protection he can get.

Can Strawberries Help Protect Against Harsh UV Rays?

While strawberries may be the sexiest fruit to eat with your man, new research shows they may also play a part in fighting off skin-damaging UV rays.

Spanish and Italian researchers found that putting strawberry extract on skin cells helped to protect the cells from UVA damage. The researchers speculated that the protective powers may lie in strawberries' anthocyanins, which are what make strawberries red.

However, we spoke to cosmetic dermatologist Doris Day, M.D., who told us to shy away from attempting to smear strawberries all over your skin. Why? The fruit will not only turn it a pinkish-red hue, but it may also introduce more issues because of the pesticides on the fruit that you can't wash off.

She also added that eating the fruit will help you gain the same benefits, since strawberries are rich in antioxidants and are anti-inflammatory. The fruit's make-up, including the anthocyanins, helps to neutralize free radicals (from outside elements, including the sun), which are toxic to the skin, causing the breakdown of collagen (aka premature aging).

Even though the jury is still out on what ingesting the fruit can do for you, Day suggests eating as many colors in your diet because it can only help your overall health. This includes strawberries, since the anthocyanins in them are going straight into your system, giving you the same UV-fighting benefits of the antioxidants.
