Twilight tattoos are not news- Stephenie Meyer cited them in her critique of certain lines in the movie.

However, the sheer volume of horrible tattoos being inked in homage to this literary abortion and the Diet Coke of vampires is astounding. Edward Cullen, as a character, squicks Robert Pattinson out:

“When you read the book,” says Pattinson, looking appropriately pallid and interesting even without makeup, “it’s like, ‘Edward Cullen was so beautiful I creamed myself.’ I mean, every line is like that. He’s the most ridiculous person who’s so amazing at everything. I think a lot of actors tried to play that aspect. I just couldn’t do that. And the more I read the script, the more I hated this guy, so that’s how I played him, as a manic-depressive who hates himself. Plus, he’s a 108-year-old virgin so he’s obviously got some issues there.”

Although not as much as the author of Twilight herself does:

“When I read it … I was convinced that Stephenie was convinced that she was Bella, and … it was like it was a book that wasn’t supposed to be published, like reading her — her sort of sexual fantasy about some — especially when she says that it was based on a dream, and it’s like, “Oh, then I had a dream about this really sexy guy” and she just writes this book about it, and there’s some things about Edward that are just so specific that … I was just convinced that this woman is mad, she’s completely mad, and she’s in love with her own fictional creation. And I sometimes … feel uncomfortable reading this thing, and I think a lot of people feel the same way, that it’s kind of voyeuristic … It creates this sick pleasure in a lot of ways.”

And yet Twitards fangirls who haven’t yet seen True Blood are lining up to get huge, ugly ass tattoos all over their back acne. Via Geekologie, a collection compiled over at ONTD.

Well that’s… passive-aggressive.

Because the lettering itself wasn’t ugly enough.

Stupid. On your forearm. Until you die.

Maybe this chick just doesn’t like doggy style.

Ha ha! That totally looks like Corey Feldman!

The Belgian girl who went sobbing to the media about the mean, nasty tattoo artist who tattooed 56 stars onto her face while she slept has retracted her story completely.

Kimberley Vlaminck, 18, originally accused tattoo artist Rouslan Tourmaniantz of covering the entire left side of her face with a pattern of inky stars. Kimberley tearfully told media outlets that she’d only wanted three small stars and the tattoo artist had ignored her request, stating:

“It is terrible for me. I cannot go out on to the street. I look like a freak.”

In the ensuing days, her story changed several times and people in the body-modification community were not convinced. In addition to the improbability that one will fall asleep during a facial tattoo, it is extremely unusual for such poor communication to precede a tattoo of this nature. For his part, Tourmaniantz has consistently maintained the same version of events, insisting that phone records would indicate the girl was not only wide awake, but texting friends throughout the session. Tourmaniantz said:

“She looked in the mirror several times. She asked for 56 stars and that’s what she got.”

Tourmaniantz has withdrawn his offer to pay for laser tattoo removal but has remained sanguine about the ordeal. It hasn’t been all bad, as he admits to getting “some publicity” (understatement) from the story. However, he also indicated he will be very strict about obtaining written permission from future clients.

Follow-up: Girl with tattooed face admits she lied is a post from: The Inquisitr

A Belgian teen girl went to a tattoo parlour to have 3 little stars tattooed near her left eye. She fell asleep and woke up with 56 stars tattooed on her face.

Kimberley Vlaminck, 18, is suing tattoo artist Rouslan Tourmaniantz to have him pay to have 53 star tattoos removed from her face after an unfortunate mis-communication. Vlaminck went to a local tattoo artist to have 3 little black stars tattooed on her face near her left eye. For some reason, she fell asleep during the inking process and woke up sometime afterwards with 56 stars in total nearly covering one side of her face.

It’s not clear how or why Vlaminck fell asleep and remained sleeping for so long and there are allegations that drugs or some other means were a factor.

“I think he didn’t understand what I wanted,” the teenager complained to the UK Sun. “He spoke only fractured English and French, but I explicitly said in my native tongue, French, that I wanted three little stars only near my left eye.” (The French words for three (“trois”) and 56 (“cinqueante et six”) sound nothing alike. Maybe go with hand gestures next time.)

Tourmaniantz insists the teen asked for 56 tats and that allegations that he “doped” or “hypnotized” her are untrue.”

Although I can understand why the girl is upset and she has every right to sue, I think the tats look kinda cool.
