WEST HOLLYWOOD (CBSLA.com) — Kat Von D Thursday attacked at CBS2/KCAL9 news crew after a fire damaged her famous West Hollywood tattoo shop.

“You guys want a f***ing interview, seriously? You guys, come on. Have some f***ing respect. Seriously, do you feel better about yourself? Oh yeah, get the lens, you f***ing idiot,” Von D said outside her shop after she charged a camerawoman, pushed the camera repeatedly and knocked off the woman’s hat. She also went after another news crew’s camera that was on the scene.

Von D was warned by LA County Sheriff’s deputies, but ignored them and went after the CBS2 camera again, this time surrounded by her employees from High Voltage Tattoo.

“Dude, your guys are awful. Your mother should be embarrassed,” she said.

The fire was reported at 4:07 a.m. at a single-story strip mall in the 1200 block of N. La Brea Avenue in West Hollywood, the Los Angeles County Fire Department said.

It was knocked down at 4:33 a.m.

A barber shop, restaurant, High Voltage Tattoos, where the reality TV show “LA Ink” was filmed, and Wonderland Gallery, also owned by Von D, were damaged, however, estimates were not available.

High Voltage Tattoo was destroyed and firefighters red-tagged the shop, deeming it unsafe to occupy due to structural damage.

Firefighters were able to save some of the shop’s memorabilia.

No injuries were reported and the cause of the fire was under investigation.

In 2010, Von D’ s Hollywood Hills home burned down, killing her cat.

Stefan Molyneaux recently said that nearly all women who gets tattooed to this level were physically/sexually abused in their youth. I bet there is much truth to that.

Key words, to this level. I am not talking about a mermaid on your ankle.

She’s too flat to be Elvira.

“She’d be very pretty without all that garbage on her.”

She would. It’s going to look really stupid 40 years from now. Well, even more stupid.

Could be that somewhere on her is tattooed “Hello sailor.”

She’s the one who broke up Sandra Bullock’s marriage to Jesse James. Never understood Bullock going for such trash but guess she thought she could tame the bad boy.

Fires seem to follow this person.

Usually by the third "coincidence" the investigators have enough pieces to convict for the whole string of arsons.

I worked with someone who had two house fires, yet miraculously saved all the family heirlooms... including a grandfather clock. I recall that there was a bit of a problem finding an insurance policy after the second fire.

I wonder how long until the heroin takes her down the happy hole.

$5 says she’s a pyro.

Yikes. If only I could have taken HER home to mother....
