Back in March, I posted a rant about “musician” Ke$ha who tattooed a fan backstage after one of her concerts. She doesn’t use any real tattoo equipment and if it’s actually possible to be below the level of a scratcher, then that’s where Ke$ha currently sits, in my opinion.
Well, now she’s making news again after she attempted to tattoo musician Andrew W.K. and ended up leaving him scarred and in need of medical aid.
‘He tells Spinner.com, “It got infected. It’s an unfortunate aftermath and my body ended up rejecting the ink and I had to go to the doctor. But it actually left a nice scar which was, in fact, cooler than the tattoo that’s in the exact shape of the tattoo.”‘
Andrew W.K. actually went on to say that he just might give Ke$ha another chance to tattoo him in the future. Well, if he’s that stupid, then he deserves what he gets, I guess. However it’s not Andrew W.K. who pisses me off so much, but Ke$ha. What I really, really, really want to know is why is this total asshole getting away with doling out these shitty home made tattoos? Hey Ke$ha, you’re not a tattoo artist, you stupid fuck. Seriously, there is absolutely no reason why she should be getting away with this. She is unlicensed, untrained and just plain not an artist. If scratchers are regularly being charged with illegal tattooing, then Ke$ha most definitely needs to be charged. I mean, she’s already sent someone to a doctor because of her shitty wannabe tattoo skills. At what point is the law going to step in on this? Not to mention that she’s a terrible representative for tattoos and of what tattoos are about. What Ke$ha is doing is not tattoo and has no link whatsoever to the tattoo community.
Shut. Her. Down.

I agree 100%. Poorly done tattoos are bad enough but think about the potential for spreading disease. I can’t imagine she’s following any type of sterilization practice. Scary.
