Girl Wakes with 53 Unwanted Tattoos

A teenage girl is suing her tattooist she claims tattooed 56 stars on her face after she asked for three.
The girl is suing for over $15,000 in damages for “the graffiti that ruined my life”, after the tattoo artist allegedly thought nothing of giving her eighteen times the tattoos she requested.
The man responsible for the ‘graffiti’, himself covered in tattoos and piercings, insists he only complied with her instructions, and at the reasonable price of $90.
“I maintain that she absolutely agreed that I tattoo those 56 stars on the left side of her face,” he said. A witness to the affair confirms the tattooist’s statement.
The girl is most upset by the tattoos: “It is terrible for me. I cannot go out on to the street, I am so embarrassed. I just look horrible.”
Having no desire to leave a customer unsatisfied, the tattooist has agreed to pay for half the cost of laser removal surgery, though this will still leave the girl with white facial scars on the tattooed areas.
The girl insists for the full cost of the removal, despite the tattooist claiming she was satisfied with the service until she went home to her father and boyfriend. “They are saying things now, like I doped her or hypnotised her. What rubbish!”
Although the tattooist serves customers at a tattoo parlor in Belgium, he is Romanian and is said to have spoken only poor French and English, which may have contributed to the confusion.
“I think he didn’t understand what I wanted,” she said, “But I explicitly said in my native tongue, French, and also in a little bit of English when he looked confused, that I wanted three little stars only near my left eye.”
The tattooist argues the girl was awake and checked in a mirror several times to see how the work was progressing.
He has decided from now on to get written consent from customers for any procedure he undertakes, but does not regret his actions. “I don’t regret it. To tell you the truth, this has given me some publicity.”
One Belgian psychologist had this to say: “The trauma this girl must be feeling is indescribable. She feels like a circus freak… and no wonder, because she looks like one.”
Via The Daily Mail.
Few will have much sympathy considering the look of the man she retained as her tattooist…

IMO, she's lucky she didn't get raped...or did she?
Would you rape that? I don't think she has to worry about getting raped, unless the guy doesn't know what her face looks like.
The thing that surprises me the most is that the so called "psychologist" called her a circus freak. What a douche. Some help he is.
It doesn't even look that bad. Shes just being a bitch. Sure, everybody gets drunk and gets a bad tattoo sometimes, but not everybody bitches so the whole world can hear you.
Live with it bitch.
Myself having 5 Tattoos, I know there is no way you could fall asleep during the procedure
Fugly girlz wuz fugly befor tatooz.
tattooist kreepy kekeke
lol, what a dumbass. even the psychologist seems to know:
“The trauma this girl must be feeling is indescribable. She feels like a circus freak… and no wonder, because she looks like one.”
EPIC WIN
Drunk night out probably wanted that many tattoos, now regrets it, and blames artist.
So, now that there are tons of comments, did anyone else realize that the article states 3*18 does not equal 56...?
Math fail.
I'm sorry. I meant 18.6666666666667.
I'll be sure not to round the numbers in the future.
yeah well she's enjoying the stardom probably, she was and is buttugly but now she's managed herself to become famous
She just released her curse mark guys, no big deal...sasuke does it all the time, that shit goes away...i've seen it
1: Ur an ugly bitch, you wore a circus freak anyway.
2: You must be OUT OF YOUR MIND if you LET HIM to actually tatoo you while you WERE AWAKE.
I was pissed before I read this and man did I lawl so hard afterward, but then I noticed that my eyes were bleeding from her fugly-ness.
Her belt is lying.
Who goes to a tattoo parlor and speaks a language that the tattooist doesn't understand? She's just lucky that he did draw dicks all over her face. He should have tattooed her entire face just to cover her ugliness.
This would be terrible if she didn't know about it, as the title of the article implied. But she brought it upon herself so... I feel no sympathy.
In the version of the story that I heard (CNN), she didn't actually have a problem with the tattoo (during AND after) until after she got home and her family and boyfriend saw her. THEN she decided that the work was not what she asked for. I agree with the other folks that said it is *impossible* to sleep through getting a tattoo- especially on your face! I don't think it matters how intoxicated you are, unless you are so drunk you can't walk (but then, how did she get there?)
I'm going to have to trust the tattooist in this case. I can see no reason for him to lie. If he was drunk I highly doubt she wouldn't know it...
My Eyes! They burns us. Nasty foul tattoist you pokeses them out! Wicked Tricksy False. We oughtn't have gone to a persons with a face of multiple premonitions, we shall regrets for rest of our lives. We shall sues yous for the damages done to us. Our precious face is ruined it is, we has a giant 3 of stars on our face we doeses. Who the hell would wants a giant three of starses on our faces. We is not as stupid as that we isn't. Lawyers shall attacks you and publicity shall ruins you...wait whats it doings? We are no Circus Feaks! We isn't! We isn't I say! Damns yous damn yous! Our boyfriends left us and our fathers have spits on us. We has no life! We curse yous curse yous! Then we'll has our revenges once your deads!
Though its pretty obviously this girl has to be lying (3 stars would only take a few minutes. And when I say few, I mean 5 minutes to 10 tops.)
You can, not necessarily fall asleep, but pass out while getting a tattoo from the pain.
He's a freak, she's an idiot, hard to decide who to believe.
if i was her, i'd pull out those piercings from his face, lawl
I bet if you actually talked to him he would turn out to be a pretty cool guy.
Or a druggie rapist. There's no way to know which it would be!
I'm not sure if this has been pointed out, but the
3rd pic with the girl, there are 56 stars which looks like a big number 3!
You're on to our conspiracy.
well that sucks
Publicity? The tattoo the he gave her is ugly. just look some of the stars, they are not proportioned (The one on the forehead). Even if i wanna get a tattoo, i'm not gonna go to him.
She kinda looks like that girl who had a kid with... a kid. Fairly recent news...
I wouldn't want to het tattoo'd bij a guy with 20 pins through his nose and lips anyway.
Her myspace has been spammed full of comments already.
Hmm ~
I am (actually) on the fence on this one.
Seems to me ~ that the full story (whether) actually true or not, is not being told, some things seem left out.
I have several tattoos myself and I have been awake for all of them.
Its a process ~ agreed by all individuals and participated by each.
Actually, when I got mine, there was a sign at the Tattoo Parlour that said ~ [no drunks, no sleeping, and no attitude]
So, I am wondering about this...
I have no tattoos on the face, but I do on the arms.
My questions are like the rest who have mentioned it.
1. when one gets a tattoo, there is always a conversation going on between each individual.
2. How could she NOT have known that more stars where being placed on her face? Especially (if) she was checking the mirror as the tattooist stated?
3. Why didn't she call home (immediately) after when she realized that she had that many stars on her face? Instead she goes home (first) to receive the damnation from her father and boyfriend.
Apparently she has a mobile.. so why didn't she?
4. If there was a apparent language barrier, she could have also (asked) that it be done (via) a translator, and by (explanation) by either drawing what she wanted on paper, which is the usual thing to do prior to getting any tattoo.
The tattoo artist that I know of (always) looks at the requested design on paper, then does a test placement on the skin, then placement of the tattoos and where it should go.
I will digress that Stars are simple designs, so maybe that was not needed, but you get what I am trying to say...
Just my questions and thoughts...
I don't see how anybody buys her story at all. Are we really to believe that she not only could sleep through having a needle repeatedly stabbed into her face, but also could not tell the difference between 3 stars being drawn and nearly 60? I could see her not being aware of 5, 6, hell, I'll even go to 10. But 56? Over that entire side of her face? Give me a fucking break. She was fully aware of what he was doing, got bitched at when she got home, and made up this bullshit story to try to dodge responsibility for it.
Xactly ~
Which is (why) I usually ~ "sit on the fence" ~ and take in (ALL) possibilities...
From experience, it seems that many tend to overlook the small (and at times)the missing details in some stories..
and (at times) I am surprised by the results, because some turn out to be true.
However in this case... I am leaning towards the FACT that this is all BS!
Spanish: nah... es puta la vieja, para que se hace tantos tatuajes si luego se va a quejar la mendiga, ahora que se aguante
English: bitch is the old, to be so many tattoos if they are going to complain about the beggar, who now hold
Spanish: Si no podes escribir en ingles, no trates de usar babefish. Aprende el idioma si tanto queres poner comentarios.
English: If you can't write English, don't use babelfish. Learn the language if you want to post comments so much.
HAHA owned by my jizz stars.
Ahh Devotion to body art is simply..amazing..
hahaha
that's what you get for tattooing and ruining your own life. to make it worse, she's sleeping and its not the tattoo maker's mistake that she fall asleep.
go, tattoo maker, you'll win the case. he even have a witness. this is already a losing case for the girl no matter how you swing it because of different language. plus some reply here saying she was drunk, then all mistakes fall to her
Starry starry night....
no matter how many tattoos she gets , she will remain ugly whore
Eh, I would of done her if she was still 11-13.
Why does people say she's ugly and a freak, she's perfectly normal. you're idiots, this is how a NORMAL girl looks like.
I just read about it too. Girl is a liar
first time using actual news photos even?
Just as a heads-up: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/belgium/5603769/Girl-with-56-stars-tattooed-on-face-admits-she-asked-for-them.html
The more I thought on it, the more I realized "yeah that really HAS to be her lying, doesn't it? :|"
Anyway... about time, eh?
Don't you think it's horrible ...
Oh wow even an article here about that poor (?) felliw belgian girl
Sad for her, but when you see the guy... 'nough said...
Her face looks like a My Little Pony's ass.
ahahahaha
yeah, she didn't realize in the process that he tattooed more than 3 stars, sure...
Daily Fail. Say no more.
Indeed.
wether the tottooist is lieing or not, she can't prove it.
and she's fugly with and without the tattoo...
to hell with the "trauma" she just wants to get the 15k$. And i think she agreed to this, but when her father and boyfriend said it was ugly, she said she didn't agree to it... that's how it most likely went.
muhahaha, i lol'd so much when ik saw it on the news.
by the way, he tattoed the stars in the form of a 3 on her face =p.
there are a lot of shops with that pic, most of em are epic ^^.
I would've never taught something that happens in my country would appear on here =p.
the tattoo artist's buttery toast if he ran over Mike Tyson...
Well, I live in Belgium. She wasn't sleeping, she fell unconscious. Also, her father was there too, but the tattooist didn't allow him to go with her to the tattoo room. And when the tattooist came back, it already happened. She was probably still unconscious then. I've read it in a news-website, just a moment ago.
If you read it on a news website, then post a link to it. Otherwise everyone is just going to take your statements as bullshit (and rightly so).
It's just my opinion, but this girl is stupid.
I don't know, this is what my "instinct" says...
Oh, by the way, good job Kip, looks like writing an article on a country that Sankaku rarely have is well appreciated.
I'm just as surprised.
What a bitch. The tattoist is obviosly telling the truth.
No, srsly. Im sorry but I want her dead.
I'm quite sure she thinks about this too x3
pretty sure its only the girl at fault here but who am I to judge =P
Sounds like she's lying to me... and she doesn't look THAT bad.
why did she not ask him WTF he was doing? surely you could TELL he was tattooing more than 3... >.>"
Un-lucky Star?
INCREDIBLE LAZY PUN!!!1
But I Lol xD
If you're referencing the trope [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/IncrediblyLazyPun] (the inclusion of the word 'incredible' would seem otherwise strange...), then this is a misuse. It would be 'IncrediblyLamePun'. IncrediblyLazyPun is when no obvious punchline is given.
It wasn't a lame pun, anyways, though, it was hilarious. Props, Anon!
Don't say lazy. >_<
GOD she looks ugly even if she doesn't have the stars
+ Why a tattoo on her face anyways? Don't understand people these days.
Well, she looks ok to me...just because daddy and her shag complained...I dunno, people today just can't stick to their convictions.
Though a thought's come to me; what if she's pulling a fast one and trying to get the compo for studies?
Typical for women to say "yes" until parents or boyfriend object and then they resort to lies and cry rape or abuse for sympathy. Manipulation is a standard tactic for their gender. The tattooist is dumb for not getting a signed consent form though, most professional tattooists won't touch you without one in the US. Of coarse we are probably 10x more sue-happy than they are over there though.
what about the girl that changed her mind during intercourse, reporting the man for rape because he continued for 5 seconds or so...
there is a law about that somewhere in the US or something, saying that if the girl changer her mind and the guy continue it is rape.
As you use 'their gender', I'm supposed to assume you're a horny, perverted, masochistic, misogynistic, homophobic, sport loving, beer drinking, homophobic (a second time, just to make sure your buddies won't tease you about it), know-it-all?
Shit that fugly "artist" dude is a fucking lightning conductor... I would lol so hard if i had to see him being thunderstruck XD
She's clearly making her own Naruto fan-character and this is just her curse seal. Right? ...Right?
Quite the predicament, though. I'm not sure which party is at fault. LOL at the psychologist. :|
Ever read D. Grayman?
That's the indication that you've contaminated by virus of Akuma!
its not the tattoos that make her look horrible its her face
LOL
Don't fall asleep when your friends have a permanent marker. Applies to tatooists as well.
Don't get passed-out drunk either. Other people think doing things are really funny because they're drunk too.
News I've seen on the local news finally, haha
lol yeah, also first time, didnt expect it.
haha a coup de grace to her already uglyness
where is your avatar from and how may i obtain the full picture faster than the speed of light?
Meh, that was also the first thing I thought: Hey, I actually read this elsewhere already ^^
As for the wench, she's butt-ugly either way. The star's just help make the sight a little less unbearable.
The guy should get awarded a prize. Seriously, he should go around drugging fugly bitches and tattooing funny shit on their heads ^^
well "sacre bleu" just means something like "geez" or "for fuck's sake"...
but literally it means sacred blue/bruise.
I read this elsewhere too, but at least its news. Isn't everyone tired of coming to SC wanting news and finding that the latest 'BREAKING update' is a random upskirt image with a mentally challenged description like "And here we have a revealing shot of Eiko Kazuki (that's years old and has made the rounds on the majority of the internet's sleaziest dives)"
raped in
Those posts are routinely the most popular on the site, so listening to some anonymous idiot in the comments is a distant priority.
Didn't the media mention that she was also (horribly) drunk at the time ?
by the heavens! that can be easily fixed..
cut her head
sacré bleu!
lol
"bleu" in french can also mean bruise...
Very suitable here
Sacred Bruise? lolz
Same here. Were two.
I feel sorry for her... But still, she's beautiful ^_^
If he has a witness it probably was her fault. She probably didn't know what she asked for.
yuck >...<
Monster does exist..
That's why you don't get tattoos. At all. Ever....
