Do Not Want: The Unintentional Penis Tattoo

Ami AngelowiczOctober 28, 2010 //

A 21-year-old Australian tattoo artist is facing two counts of assault after inking an unwanted tattoo on his friend’s back. The 25-year-old victim didn’t really want a tattoo in the first place, but the artist in question convinced him to get a ying yang symbol with some dragons. That sounds fugly enough, yet even fuglier was the 16-inch penis and a gay slur he emerged with. The peen-tooist will now have to face a jury while the dude with the d**k on his back will have to face some serious time under the laser. [Metro] Keep reading »

The World’s Worst Tattoo Session

Ami AngelowiczSeptember 29, 2010 //

This woman should never attempt to get a tattoo ever, ever again. I think the tattoo artist was being kind when he called her “parsnippety.” I don’t even want to know what she’s like in childbirth. [BuzzFeed] Keep reading »

Get Tattooed Like Beyonce

Annika HarrisSeptember 24, 2010 //

The Dereon ads for the fall 2010 collection, which featured a tattooed Beyonce, were such a strong hit, that Beyonce and her mother Tina Knowles have decided to release a set of temporary tattoos. The pair have teamed up with Temptu, an airbrush makeup firm which created the tattoos for the ads, to develop temporary tattoo designs for Dereon. The basic and deluxe packages, which are due to launch Nov. 1, will include designs in the Dereon fleur symbol, rocker bolts and chains, jewel baubles, and spiders. You know, typical temporary tattoo looks. The tattoos will be waterproof and are meant to last two to five days. Basic kits will retail for $16 and the deluxe kits will run you $34 at Sephora.

Girl Talk: Life As A Tattooed Lady

Emily McCombsSeptember 20, 2010 //

I live in New York City, where every third person on the street has some kind of ink. So it’s easy for me to forget that tattoos often have a whole different set of connotations in that wide swath of country between the East and West coasts.

Luckily, the internet never hesitates to remind me. Since I started starring in a weekly web series, I’ve been called everything from a “tattooed longshoreman” to a “goblin.” (The goblin comment was probably unrelated to my tattoos, but it was still super mean.) And when a piece I wrote on weight loss for The Frisky ended up being featured on CNN.com, the photo featuring my tattooed arms quickly overshadowed the article’s content. Keep reading »

No, Thank You For Being A Friend

Julie GersteinSeptember 10, 2010 //

We thought we loved “The Golden Girls,” but apparently we don’t. At least not as much as the guy who got Blanche, Dorothy, Rose and Sofia tattooed on him in the shape of Mt. Rushmore. Not your bag? Then how about a back piece featuring the cast of “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” or an arm tattoo of never-nude “Analrapist” Tobias from “Arrested Development”? Check out this collection from Flavorwire and see if you can spot your favorite shows on other people’s body parts. [Flavorwire] Keep reading »

Quotable: Nicole Richie Regrets “Virgin” Tattoo

Annika HarrisSeptember 7, 2010 //

“I’m a Virgo and the sign is a virgin. So when I was 16, I got the word virgin tattooed on my wrist, thinking I was sooo deep and cool. And now I just look really weird having virgin written across my wrist and I have to explain it.”

– Nicole Richie, a mother of two, is definitely not a virgin. Sadly, I know someone else, who isn’t a Virgo, who also has “virgin” tattooed on her. Do you have a tattoo that you regret? [Starpulse.com] Keep reading »

This 101-Year-Old Granny Has More Tattoos Than I Do

Jessica WakemanAugust 26, 2010 //

Mimi Rosenthal is our kind of granny: To celebrate her 101st birthday, she got her third tattoo. At 99, Mimi got a blue butterfly tat and at 100 it was a sunflower on her arm. Last week Mimi got another yellow sunflower, but this time on her leg. Why so many tattoos on a senior citizen? Mimi says, “Why not?” [TampaBay.com] Keep reading »

Avoid Horizontal Friction When You’re Rocking A Vattoo

Annika HarrisAugust 20, 2010 //

So Amelia reported on vattooing, temporary tattoos for a completely bare lady flower, about a month ago, but now we’ve got video. I’m relieved that I’m not the only one here at The Frisky who has considered this kind of body adornment. Although, I’m pretty sure I’m the only one who has considered getting a real tattoo of a cat’s eyes and nose right above my vag. OK, I’ve probably shared too much, and it’s time to watch the video.

Quotable: Rihanna Clears Up The Tattoo Confusion

Annika HarrisAugust 16, 2010 //

“rebelle fleur translates to rebel flower, NOT rebellious flower, its 2 nouns so in that case fleur does not HAVE to be first! Fyi, cuz they will ask.”

– Rihanna responds to the folks questioning her knowledge of French in a text to her tattoo artist, Keith “Bang Bang” McCurdy. [The YBF]
