If you haven’t heard about the young Belgian teen who decided she wanted 56 stars tattooed on her face, well you have now! Kimberley Vlaminck loved her stars until her father saw them and saw stars, he was so angry!
Afraid to tell her father the truth, she made up the story that she had asked the tattooist to give her three stars and fell asleep. When she awoke this tattoo artist (gone beserk) had given her 53 more stars than she had asked for! Unfortunately for her, her story did not add up….afterall, how many people would fall asleep while someone is drilling 56 stars into your face with a needle?!!!
The teenager finally admitted that she had asked for all 56 star and Romanian tattooist, Rouslan Toumaniantz, was redeemed. My question, however, is why would he consent to giving this young girl what she wanted? Has he no scruples? Was the 55£ for the job more important than the consequences that this act would have on this girl for the rest of her life? Shouldn’t he have told her to think about what she wanted and try to talk her out of it? It’s not like she was putting 56 stars on her behind where no one or very few people would see it! This was going on her face for all the world to see, unless she decides to wear a Burka!Â
Did the tattoo artist not think that what a teenager may find cool and hip; she’ll no longer feel that way as she gets older?! Running around with 56 stars covering half your face while you’re a teen is not so cool when you’re a 30, 40, 50, or 60 year old lady!Â
Maya Muses: After seeing photos of Toumaniantz, I can see why he didn’t think there was anything wrong with giving Vlaminck what she wanted! Next to him, her stars look pretty nice!
