Celebrity Tattoos

Tattoosue — Fri, 07 Jan 2011 13:23:53 +0000

Celebrity tattoos really have 2 meanings. On one hand, you have celebrities with tattoos. This group is growing all the time and celebrities are more than proud to show off their tattoos when being photographed. There are websites focused on this subject as well as at least one book has been published featuring celebrity tattoos. This has a positive influence for the tattoo industry. Fans of celebrities tend to mimic them. They admire them so it makes since. If it’s OK and safe for their heroes to get tattoos , then tattoos are A OK for them. Hell, some fans probably admire some of these people so much they may even get the same tattoo as the person they admire.

Then we have the other side of the coin. Everyday people getting ink that will be a constant reminder of celebrities they admire. Celebrities that hold a special place for them. I can’t say I have that much affection or respect for any celebrity but to each his own.

Kelly Grows Up

Tattoosue — Thu, 07 Oct 2010 12:37:28 +0000

Although I’m not into most reality TV shows, The Osbournes was one that I looked forward to every week. Watching Ozzy shuffling and mumbling though family life with Sharon and the kids every week was my idea of entertainment. His kids kept the show interesting and I can still recall when Kelly divulged her first tattoo to her parents.

Well, now Kelly has grown up and has transformed into a “sophisticated” adult who is now planning on removing all of her 15 tattoos. Tattoo removal cost is high no matter what method you choose but lasering off 15 tattoos would probably carry the price tag of a new car.

Kelly is now twenty five years old (and would you even recognize her from this photo)? Talk about a makeover. She recently lost 50 pounds, has appeared on dancing with the stars, and is getting some acting roles.

She say she still likes some of them – including a matching tattoo she got with sibling, Jack, but has regrets about others. None the less, they’re all getting the ax.

Dreamt Up Tattoos

You may not have known his name but you’ll know the face. Liev Schreiber has starred in many roles in television and movies. One of his most recent and more popular roles was as Sabertooth in X-Men Origins: Wolverine. His background is very unusual. Once his parents divorced when he was 5 years old, him and his mom moved to New York City. She drove cab to support them but they lived in abandoned buildings. She never let him see color movies. Only the old black and white flicks. Anyway, he wasn’t into tattoos until recently when he had a vivid dream about a specific tattoo design. He dreamt he was in his senior years and his children were grown. He was driving and got a flat. While changing the flat, his sleeve rolls up and there is a tattoo of his childrens names on his arm. His kids were there and saw it and were thrilled. When he woke he thought it would be a great idea to show his love for them. He has experienced vivid dreams before that have been forceful enough to motivate him to act in his real life. He took up scuba diving to mimic the repeated dream he had of being able to fly. He felt that was fairly close to the wonderful sensation he experienced while having the dream.

Ink Not Mink

Tattoosue — Sat, 26 Jun 2010 20:32:19 +0000

I recently became a member of PETA. I felt I had to do more than yap about animal abuse and how much it upset me. They make some amazing strides in keeping businesses and people accountable for how animals are treated. But the task seems gigantic so any help individuals can offer helps the cause. Recently, PETA has had impressive campaigns to promote the ethical treatment of animals including “Ink No Mink”. Celebrities are stripping out of their clothes and being tastefully photographed with a couple of accessories and in all their tattoo glory. A great idea for a campaign. A win win. Everyone loves tattoos and celebrities. Naked celebrities with tattoos. Whoever thought up the campaign should get a promotion! Visit their ad page to see more. And if you have a heart, make a donation or, better yet, join PETA and support their work. If you can’t afford to do that, write a letter. Voice your objection to some of the cruelty we subject animals to.

Tattoo Removal and Fleeting Love

Tattoosue — Sun, 14 Mar 2010 13:10:39 +0000

Don’t we ever learn – how much has it been preached about avoiding getting a lovers name tattooed on our bodies? It’s one of the top five tattoos NOT to get. Some tattoo artists even go so far as to refuse to do this type of tattoo. Why? Because they see the regrets from customers coming back for cover ups or clients spending mucho money on tattoo removal once the love has left the building. Even though the economy has been running in slow motion, tattoos as well as tattoo removal has not slowed down a bit. And here is a staggering statistic – about 20% of those who get a tattoo will eventually want it removed.The top reasons people give for wishing to remove their tattoo – career and job hiring, interests change after so many years and so do tastes, decision to start a career in the military – but the number one reason is to remove the name from a relationship that has failed.

I’m not a fan of Mariah Carey but from what I’ve read her latest beau – Nick Cannon – is the 2^nd romantic connection that she has made that has chosen to have her name tattooed on his body. The size of the font – just make you want to laugh even more – that’ll be one big ass tattoo to get removed and you know it’s inevitable.

Amy’s New Breasts

Tattoosue — Sun, 15 Nov 2009 13:32:40 +0000

Although I’ve lost interest in her music – since I haven’t heard much for the last couple years – yeah that may be it, Amy Winehouse still manages to show up in the news here and there and she’s like a car wreck. You just can’t help but look and pay attention. Maybe she’s turned the corner and 2010 will prove to be a comeback year for her. She recently emerged from a stint in rehab and also finished up with her divorce of the lowlife she was with. She’s one of my favorite tattooed celebrities, although I’m not a fan of her violent episodes. It’s possible her crazy addictive filled life can be blamed for some of the episodes but it makes you wonder about how much of the altercations she finds herself in are truly just part of her nature. But, I digress from the new boob job she recently showed off. Hell, even her father is quoted as saying “Her boobs are great”. What a Dad, huh?

She looks clear eyes in these recent photos so let’s hope for the best. She’s young and full of talent. Let’s hope the rehab sticks.

A Fan of Dwights

Susan — Wed, 13 May 2009 06:09:00 +0000

This may be one of those tattoos that is up for laser removal 10 years from now – but I could be wrong. I’m a fan of “The Office” and the character of Dwight Schrute is one of the best and funniest characters on the show. But getting a tattoo of this character is a whole different thing. It’s excellent work. There’s no doubt who it is supposed to be. Found this on College Humor – lots of tattoo pictures on the site. Visit the site – College Humor – to see more tattoos like this.

Amy Winehouse Makeup Line

Susan — Fri, 14 Mar 2008 16:02:00 +0000

It’s been circulating in the news that singer Amy Winehouse is going to come out with her own fashion and makeup line. One comment I read was critical but I think it’s a great marketing idea. She’s very popular, people are taken with her and you always have to be looking for the next fad or style and she has a very unique style of her own.The line would include hairspray, but the signature item would be the heavy liquid eyeliner that the Grammy Award-winning artist is known for.

LA Ink – Kat Von D

Lots of publicity about Kat V’s new shoe starting this month. It seems like everyone is intrigued by her since she became a regular on Miami Ink. My favorite is Corey Miller. She’s beautiful, so talented, and has an interesting personality to boot.
