Palm Beach's own Tan Man welcomes 'Fox and Friends' to breakfast
The Tan Man is a viral Golden Boy. Palm Beach hometown guy George Hamilton busted the internet early May 20 with an appearance on "Fox and Friends." Fox News personality Steve Doocy, who recently relocated to Florida, launched his new "Morning Walk" feature, accompanied by fellow Foxie — and Palm Beacher — Bret Baier. The two walked along the Lake Worth Pier and Baier talked about golf, his tall sons and the Middle East. As they headed for breakfast at Benny's On The Beach, they met a man who was hiding his face using the backside of three Benny's menus as a tan-enhancing reflector. 'It's George Hamilton!" Doocy said when the tan man put down the menus and flashed his pearly whites. "Did you get a little glare from the teeth?" Hamilton asked. When asked how he kept them so white, Hamilton said, "They look a lot whiter because the tan is so dark." Hamilton talked about growing up in Palm Beach, and going to high school with Burt Reynolds — "He was known as Buddy then" — and how they often discussed becoming actors. Hamilton displayed his trademark humor when he responded to Doocy's "How did the tan thing start?' "I was new in Hollywood and asked some established actors what I could do to acquire a movie star persona. Cary Grant said, 'You cahn't go wrong with a great hayercut,' and Fred Astaire advised me to 'Get a good tailor.'" But a "very drunk" Robert Mitchum told him: "Don't waste perfectly good drinking time with a barber or a tailor. Just get a good tan." Something tells us that anecdote is what one would politely describe as "apocryphal," but it's dang sure entertaining. The threesome then sat down for breakfast at Benny's On The Beach, which Hamilton described as his "favorite breakfast spot." Benny's owner Lee Lipton picked up the breakfast tab.
