When Will People Learn

When will people learn that getting a tattoo of a lover's name is the worst possible idea in the world. Numerous of celebrities have gone down this road and one would think that people would take notice and not follow in their foot steps. I mean people are constantly watching celebrities every move so why not learn a lesson from their mistakes. Simply put if you are even thinking about getting a tattoo of your boyfriend's name or heck even of your husband's name just don't do it. It is pretty much guaranteed once your do this that you have put a curse on your relationship and you will break up or get a divorce. And you will be left with the reminder of that awful relationship for the rest of your life. It is best to just not be romantic when it comes to getting a tattoo. If you just have to get something to represent your lover or spouse think about getting a zodiac sign or something to that effect. Yes you will still have the reminder of them but it's doesn't make as strong of a statement of a person name. Plus people won't constantly be asking you, who is so and so.

It looks like Miley Cyrus' ex-boyfriend Justin Gaston has become the latest victim to this. Justin had a rather interesting tattoo of a very girly tattoo on the back of his arm and in the middle of that flower were the initials of MC. Well since the two have just recently broken up Justin wasted no time in going to the tattoo parlor and getting that girly flower tattoo covered up with some other design.

Jermaine Dupri Gets Tattoo Of Janet Jackson

If you are not familiar with the tattoo world or tattoo culture you may or may not know that it is pretty much a tattoo no no to get a tattoo of your lover's name or to get a portrait of them. Tattoo artist often refer to this gesture as being overly romantic. Yes, it's great to experience getting a tattoo together but it doesn't have to be something like their name or their picture. It is literally considered the kiss of death to get your lover's name and or their picture tattooed on you. Let's face it people just don't stay together forever anymore and nine times out of ten once someone does this they all of a sudden split up. Well Jermaine Dupri and Janet Jackson have been dating each other since 2002. So it's been 7 solid years of happiness for this celebrity couple, which in Hollywood 7 years is more like 70 years. Let's just hope for Jermaine's sake that they can beat the tattoo cruse and stay together.

For some unknown reason Jermaine thought it would be a great idea to get a rather interesting tattoo of girlfriend Janet Jackson on his rib cage. Janet is being portrayed as the Virgin Mary of all things. Jermaine had no problem admitting that it hurt like crazy and he had to take at least 100 breaks because he couldn't take the pain.

So take this as a lesson learned. One do not get a lover's name or portrait on you. It's like playing with fire you will end up getting burned, maybe not now but somewhere down the line. And number two getting a tattoo on your rib cage is a very painful place to get a tattoo.

Pharrell has gotten tattoos removed from his back, both biceps and both forearms. This is a great example to many young people out there. You should think extra hard about your tattoos. Getting a tattoo just to get one is not the best reason to get a tattoo. The best advice that anyone can give a young person or anyone who is thinking about a tattoo is simply wait. Think about your design and keep thinking about it and wait a month or so and if you still want it then go and get it. After all if you wake up one morning and decide you don't want or like that tattoo design you got you can't just scrub it off.

Steve-O's Tattoo Regrets

Believe it or not the crazy Jackass star does have some regrets about the many tattoos he has. However, he has no problem with the huge tattoo of himself that covers his entire back that reads "Yeah Dude, I rock! Steve-O" nor does he regret his copy cat tattooed of Angelina Jolie's prayer for her eldest son Maddox on his shoulder blade. Or having Billy Bob name written on his arm. Not to mention the "I have a small wiener" on his arm." But he does regret a pot leaf on his wrist and the dribbling d**k on his arm.

So Steve-O has decided to get this not so great tattoos that he now regrets covered up with another tattoo. This just goes to show that even crazy guys like Steve-O make tattoo mistakes. There are a few tips that could learn from Steve-O. Number one take your tattoos seriously and think them out. Don't just walk into a tattoo parlor and say oh I want this and close your eyes and pick some random design. Also don't get inked when you are intoxicated with alcohol or drugs and lastly don't let a friend persuade you that some pot leaf on your wrist or something of equal uselessness is going to be so cool and awesome. Just keep in mind what is cool when you are a teenager might not be so cool when you are older. For example, telling your children to stay a way from pot is going to be really hard coming from someone with a pot leaf tattooed on them.

The main thing that one needs to do is just be responsible when it comes to getting a tattoo. They are forever and there is no easy way of getting rid of them if you decided your tat is no longer cool or that you no longer want it. Think twice and ink once.

Rihanna Adds Another Tattoo To Her Collection

By now everyone knows that singer, Rihanna is no stranger to the tattoo gun. Rihanna sports a pretty good size tattoo collection and she isn't afarid of showing them off or talking about them. She loves tattoos so much that she has admitted to spending any free time she has in varous tattoo parlors, which could be the reason why she gets a new tattoo every few months or so.

Rihanna has added a new tattoo her to growing collection, a little black gun located on her ribs. At first the singer wanted to have a little black gun on the front part of each of her shoulders but she quickly decided against that because of her contract with Cover Girl and they wouldn't have been to thrilled about that. So she went with the gun on her ribs.

According to NYC-based tattoo artist BangBang, who gave Rihanna her newest tattoo, he says he Rihanna really wanted her new tattoo in a different location but later decided on her ribs.

"I really wanted to put it here [on her arms]... She loved 'em. But, Cover Girl wouldn’t have liked it much... and they pay the bills!" he writes under one photos. "Ended up doing it on her ribs."

"If I had to say why she got it, it’s because she kicks ass and everybody supports her! She can do whatever she wants. She’s one of the nicest and sweetest people I know. She has a lot of really good friends supporting her. We didn’t talk about why she specifically got it. She’s a rock. She’s just thinking about having a great time now.”

Miley Cyrus Has First Tattoo All Planned Out

The Disney star can't seem to keep herself out of scandals and she is only 16 years old. First it was the topless photo shoot that caused some much drama, even though she had a bed sheet covering herself and all you could see what her back. She is also involved in a law suit regrading all the Asians in CA , due to a photo of her pretending she was Asians. She is also ridiculed for her close relationship to her father, well one more thing can be added to that list, a tattoo.

Miley is not quite of age to get a tattoo just yet but that hasn't stopped her from wanting to get one. Like most girls Miley's age they want a tattoo. Well it seems Miley has already picked out what she wants as her first tattoo and to the seasoned tattoo person its the ultimate tattoo no no. This tattoo design that Miley has picked out is not the wisest of tattoo design. She wants to get the initials of her 20 year old boyfriend, Justin Gaston. One would think that her parents Billy Ray and Tish would put their foot down and advise their daughter that getting the initials of a boyfriend who is more than likely just a teenager love affair is not the best idea. But it seems Billy Ray and Tish are ok with this because of a new tattoo ink that has come out that promises to be more effective when you want to get one removed by a laser. Either way getting tattoos removed is painful and expensive. It's best to just skip the whole boyfriend initials thing and get a butterfly or a heart tattoo instead.
