A Tattoo Nightmare
I know. There are stars on her face. Cute, right?
Well, maybe if they weren’t permanent.
18-year-old Kimberley Vlaminck decided to get supposedly three stars tattooed on her face, but she supposedly fell asleep in the process and woke up with 56 stars. What a moron.
After her new face was revealed to her father and her boyfriend, Kimberley decided to sue the artist for the cost to remove all 56 stars, however the tattoo artist is making claims that she actually wanted all of those (tacky) stars. He even mentioned that she looked in the mirror a few times as the procedure was taking place (more info here).
Two questions that comes to mind:
-How did you manage to fall asleep when someone’s stabbing your face with a needle?
-Can I call you Starface? Like Scarface the movie, but uh only not?
I’m not buying her story. If she was telling the truth, then this was how it probably went down on the night she got her tattoo…
Kim: “Hi I’d like to get three stars on my face, just three.”
Tattoo artist: “That can be done, just have a seat.”
Tattoo artist: *begins to tattoo a tramp stamp-I mean star*
Kim: “Hly cow that really hurts!”
Tattoo artist: “The face is one of the most sensitive areas to get tattooed ya know.”
Kim: “I see. Well, boy am I tired! Mind if I sleep until you’re done? It seems like a really good time to get a good night’s rest right now.”
*snores*
Tattoo artist: “One down and 55 more to go…”
Any tattoo artist would make absolute sure on what their clients would want for a tattoo, especially with something so awfully drastic and bold to be put on their very own face. And Any tattoo artist wouldn’t throw stars at random places without the client’s compliance.
Despite her bullshit excuse–which I’m sure she was insanely drunk when all of that went down–I feel a little sorry for her. If it was already on a person who looked like a freak, I would be indifferent, but Kimberley, poor ol’ Kimberley, looked completely normal, like the type of girl you’d see shopping at Hollister on the weekends, and now she’s got the entire constellation eating half of her face.
She reminds me of one of the characters from X-Men… Nightmare was it?
Seriously, she probably was drunk when she passed out. I’ve never heard a tattoo artist say “Hey, a whole new canvas to work on!” and then scribble away with their needle. Some people have threesomes, others moon unsuspecting passerbys in traffic stops, she just happened to… get stars tattooed on her face.

STARFACE?! Hahahaha oh my… those look so painful. She slept through it?!
My friend and I were making fun of someone last night who wants to get the Nike logo as a tattoo and I brought up the brilliant idea of getting the Starbucks logo tattooed on my arm… so now I’m afraid to drink cuz it might sound like a REALLY GOOD idea when I’m drunk.

I don’t buy that story either! I don’t have any tattoos but I sure do know that someone wouldn’t be falling asleep getting a tattoo done. The girl is an idiot.

In all of her pictures, you can see the shame in her eyes.
If I were that tattoo artist, I’d be like, “You want a face full of stars? Let me sharpie them on your face before I go through with it and see how you feel.” She’d be like, “Oh my god. I look like a moron.”
Exactly.

Seriously drunk. When it comes to little simple tattoos, I swear the artist puts like a stencil print on the skin first, you know, to be sure the stars are in the right place (HAHAHA who puts stars on their face?!) and has the client look in the mirror to check placement. Oh boy. And anyone who can fall asleep while needles are busting through their skin is in some kind of coma, I would think.

HAHAHAHAHA!!!

“Here, have a really expensive tattoo that you neither paid for or asked for!”
Yeah, utter bullshit. She probably just got drunk and thought it was a good idea until she woke up the next morning.

Haha, I remember this story from digg. I’m glad she came clean with the truth though later cause honestly… that was the most transparent lie ever. And her tattoo looks awful.

I have semi-fallen asleep while getting tattooed, but only after hours of listening to the buzzing, which is quite hypnotic.
Even if she asked for all those stars, the tattoo artist is still very irresponsible. Decent tattoo artists wouldn’t tattoo the face of someone who isn’t fully aware of what they are getting into, particularly a young girl who assumedly isn’t already covered in tattoos.
