56-tattoos

Belgian teenager Kimberly Vlaeminck says she wanted three stars tattooed around here eyes. But she fell asleep during the procedure and woke up with 56 stars.

We suspect tattoo artist Rouslan Toumaniantz’ true goal was to give her 57 stars as a tribute to Barack Obama’s 57 states, but as a good liberal he intentionally omitted the star representing Sarah Palin’s Alaska.

Update: The truth comes out. Vlaeminck didn’t fall asleep. She made the whole story up because her father was furious when he saw what she’d done. So it turns out she’s the one who wanted the tribute to Obama’s 57 states.

I don’t have a tattoo, but I’ve seen them put on before. There is NO CHANCE that you will fall asleep. Something’s fishy here.

Unless you’re on drugs I guess. I mean, it is Belgium.

I’m guessing the goal was to piss Dad off. Very successful on that score.

Good luck at those job interviews.

Stupid girl admitted she lied because she knew her parents were going to beat the @#%& out of her otherwise. So why the blanketty-blank do something that stupid?

Its her body, her parents have no right to say anything bout any tattoo she gets. There’s many ways to hide a tattoo and therefore the comment about good luck with interviews goes right out the window!
There also is such thing as laser removal!

Surprise, surprise, Amanda. If she lives in her parents home then they make the rules. Home is not a democracy and everyone does not have equal rights. If she was told no tattoos then no tattoos. If she doesn’t like the rules then move out (if old enough). Otherwise suck up, follow the rules or suffer the consequences. Hide those tattoos? She could paint up as a clown and we are back to what Doug said. She could wear a hijab. She could….Humm….yeah, Rich is on the right track.
