"Actually, I did want 56 stars on my face."

Picture attached. Ignore the gnarled fingernail, I need to quit biting them.

Odd. The attachment didn't show when I replied. I gotta say, while ink still ain't my thing, that's pretty badassed.

I would never get anything on my face. Perhaps the original idea of something behind my ear, but not on my face. Never. Nothing planned right now for another tattoo, but haven't ruled them out completely yet.

Thanks. 🙂

I wouldn't mind a small tattoo hmm not sure where...i used to think i wanted a small butterfly or those cute tiny bugs beetle bugs? at the corner or near my left eye...but hmm that sounds too dangerously close to my eye...maybe a tiny one around the ankle..wishful thinking of course..'

o and didn't i read the whole thing is fake?

One link found via Google News indicates that this was a radio-station hoax:

Why would a radio station do a prank like that?

 

[Darth Vegeta]

Oh yeah that nonsense happened over here. (i live in Flanders)
Was quite a newsflash. I find it silly it was turned into such a big newstory let alone worldwide. But from what i read over here, both are pretty much to blame. The girl acted stupid and lied and the guy who applied the tattoos acted irresponsibly and unwise.

What in hell does any of that have to do with the Armenian problem?!?





Oh wait. Wrong thread...

:winkiss:

Actually, Toumaniantz is an Armenian surname coincidentally lol,

Stories like this happen all time, but they only go big when it's a slow news day.

Stories like this happen all time, but they only go big when it's a slow news day.

Or, if you're conspiracy-minded, as smokescreens during really vital governmental decisions that we all should be paying attention to instead of the pablum the media feeds us.

Fortunately, I'm not. But still, this non-story should have fizzled an hour after it hit the wire.

Stupid teenage girl why the hell would you want all thosr stars on your face anyway but why was she gonna sue someone for something that was her decison

I don't know if she intended to sue him, she just wanted to get her father off her case. And she definitely didn't intend to become a world news headline over it.

 

[Betchass1]

Fifty-six stars, after which she cried ninety-six tears. :rolleyes

I would encourage the father to not pay for the expensive removal of them but let her wear them or come up with the money herself.

Well, I don't know about Belgium, but I read that the girl is 18. So maybe the father could go to hell.

 

[Betchass1]

She went on to blame the Flemish-speaking tattooist for not being able to understand her French and English instructions.

I read in a few places that he was Romanian. Can't seem to find a definitive source now.

More news and bizarre photos here :eek2:

They look thick and fake in that picture.

Thanks. The stupid claim of it being a hoax based on the tattoo artist's face doesn't impress me. But looking at this latest photo of the lady's face, I have to admit that some of those stars look more like decals than tattoos. 😱

 

[QueenBeeBeeMari]

I still can't see the point in doing a prank like that.It wasn't funny and accomplished nothing.

 

[chicag0]

I'm sure those involved would say that the fact that it is such big news, or even that we are talking about it for 7 pages in this thread, means that it was a success.

They managed to trick people into believing their story, and both of them had their 15 seconds of fame.

 

[MistressValerie1]

Oh yeah sorry about that Mistress Valerie

No problem 🙂

That was my thought exactly -- some of them looked stuck on.

The pic of the guy below the girl is by far THE dumbest thing I have EVER seen. I bet he is the kind of douche that say's " I dont do this for attention"

To each their own.

I'm usually a very accepting person but I could not look at him for long....I just couldn't.I wasn't trying to be mean but I just couldn't stand looking at the picture

 

[chicag0]

"I am an accepting person" - except of people who have facial tattoos/piercings.

Wow.

 

[QueenBeeBeeMari]

No,I can usually deal with seeing that.My brother has several but for some reason I could not look at it.I accept his decision to wear them it was just to much for me to look at.I guess it was just overwhelming,I have never seen anything like it.
