A teenage girl is suing a tattoo artist for £10,000 after she allegedly asked him for three stars on her face - but ended up with 56.
Eighteen-year-old Kimberley Vlaminck paid £55 for 'the graffiti that has ruined my life' in her Belgian home town of Courtrai.

So 3 stars on her face wouldn’t have ruined her life?
Tattoos. I don’t get it. I was just at the beach yesterday looking at the old women who’ve dated themselves with their trendy tramp stamp that was so hip 10 years ago. Now they are 30 somethings with a kid or two and it just looks bad. This tramp could probably strip for 10 years or so if she stays in shape, and if she saves every dime she’ll do better than average. So look on the bright side honey. She won’t even need to buy stripper glitter.
They mentioned circus in the article—that’s always an option.
When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;
How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim Soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;
And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.
She did not fall asleep, she got exactly what she asked for and after she went home, her father and her boyfriend saw her and threw a fit, so she changed her story.
Nobody sleeps through 56 tattoos. I had gotten two tattoos when I was younger and YOU FEEL EVERY JAB of that needle. Every jab.
She knew exactly what she was doing, and only later realized, “OH MY! What have I done!”
Tough cookies dumbass.
I’m not happy with my tattoo either, but it was my own stupid fault. Thank god it’s high on my arm where nobody will see it. The other is on my hip where even less people will ever see it.
Good lord, on her face no less...
Yep, if you are going to make a mistake, do it in a place where most won’t see it.
LOL. It makes Mike Tyson tattoo look good. At least they did not shave her eyebrows while asleep.
And the one on the hip says?????
She’s 18, which is old enough to make stupid decisions on her own... actually, considering this is in the EU, 16 might have been old enough.
And I’m kind of amazed that this girl didn’t notice that it was taking so much longer than it should have, or didn’t ever look in the mirror, or trusted a guy who could hardly speak her language to interpret her directions properly, or didn’t ‘preview’ it, (I’ve been with friends who got tattoos, the artists always draws the design on with something washable before doing anything), or didn’t even look in a mirror partway through, or didn’t notice that he was tattooing on her forehead and cheek and chin, etc. It’s pretty implausible...
It's a small lion. Doesn't say anything at all.
That one doesn't bother me, but I hate tattoos.
Let me just try to imagine how AWFUL this will look when she's 68...ewwwww!
One tattoo for each different guy she has had sex with.
Even better - what kind of medication/drugs does one have to be under the influence of to fall asleep while receiving 56 individual tattoos on your FACE???
Personally, I think there is more to this story... like blowback reaction to her tattoos...
It may not “say” anything but it sure gets the point across. I am seeing tattoos on many people. I don’t see the reason behind it when life changes as we get older. Something “cool” 20 years ago is not “cool” today. Reminds me of the Mullet Hair Style.
--spit take--
LOL
It's twice as funny when you know what that means.
;^)
Definately!
Mousey, flat-chested broad has buyer's remorse when stars fail to have magic.
“Stupid is what supid does.”
Forrest Gump
the stupid girl wanted A 3 TATTOED IN HER FACE. Look at her again. Then the effect of whatever she used before passed away, and she realized what she had done, and in the most responsible way she could react, she decided to blame someone else
