7. Breasts

Before you think about getting a rose or a name tatted on your boobs think about how you’ll never be able to wear low cut shirts without someone seeing that ever again.

6. Ass

Tatts on the ass cheeks are never a good idea. It just looks plain tacky and

5. Thigh

The first way to ruin a classy moment is a big tattoo on your thigh in your dress or gown.

4. Neck

Neck tattoo should never, ever be on a woman! Even on men they are not so hot but as a lady this is a huge no-no place.

3. Tramp Stamp

It’s not cute anymore, get over it. If I had a dollar for every tramp stamp out there I’d be a millionaire. If I had a dollar for every tramp stamp regretted I’d be a billionaire.

2. Your Man’s Name…Anywhere

This is the kiss of death! The moment you put your man’s name on your body it’s going to be over…soon.

1. Face

Just unacceptable. Period.

Rihanna Shows Off New “Thug Life” Tattoo

Drake Upset With Artist Who Tattooed Fan’s Forehead: “F**king A**hole”

In one photo, it shows the letters of “THUG LIFE” on each of her knuckles, much like the slain rapper, but in white ink. She wrote: “♫ All these b*tches screaming that 2pac back ♫ #THUGLIFE” (see right)

And in another photo, she is laying down and holding a beer, appearing to be getting a tat on her backside like she did in her “We Found Love” video. She even made reference to it, writing: “Tat my f**kin name on u girl so I know its real!!! #MINE” (see in gallery below)

Are these tattoos a little too wild, even for Rihanna’s taste?

It seems Drake did, as well. When asked about the tat in a recent interview, Drake went from supportive…to angry…to uncomfortable, all in under a minute, saying:

“i want to meet her and understand why. What happened? That’s cool, though. I feel you 100%. That, to me, is absolutely incredible. The guy who tatted it is a fu**ing a**hole, I will tell you that. I don’t f**k with that guy. F**k you to that tat artist, by the way ’cause you’re an a**hole for real and you should lose your job. You should never do tattoos again. I don’t f**k with you and if I ever see you, I’ma f**k you up. I want to talk to this girl and understand it. It’s love, it’s crazy, it’s surreal. I don’t even want to look at it anymore.”

Umm, ok?

But the artist himself said, “She was on a pretty good one when she came in, and I think by the time I finished, she was coming down, because her attitude changed pretty drastically once the tattoo was finished.” So, we can understand why Drake hates him.

Violent Lips is a temporary lip tattoo line that offers vitamin-enhanced applications for your lips in prints and patterns ranging from glitter and polka dots to fishnets and rainbow stripes.

It’s totally FDA-approved, contains no animal products, and can easily be removed with baby oil and a textured wipe. And with a lasting effect of 4-8 hours, that’s longer than some regular lipsticks.

But does that make you want to give these a try? Check below the gallery for a video tutorial!

How To Apply Violent Lips:

Sexy, alluring and sentimental are just some adjectives that describe why many like recording artist Keyshia Cole get “tatted up.” 

But what if the once sexy display of ink on your foot or forearm is one that you’ve grown sick of or you have a job interview? Or maybe the dress you’ve set aside for a special event doesn’t really pull together your “pulled together” look because of the markings on your body that are in too obvious a place to actually cover up. Even better, your relationship is now over but you’re left with a sad reminder – a tattoo of his name.

A permanent solution is to have a laser tattoo removal procedure which can be painful and can cost anywhere from $250-$850 (the amount of sessions will vary per person). This option is only perfect if you have the funds, a high tolerance for pain and are absolutely sure about permanently removing your tatt. And according to Your Plastic Surgery Guide.com, the best candidates for this procedure are people with “fair to medium-light complexions who have darker ink applied sparsely and close to the skin’s surface.” So where does this leave deeper skin tones who aren’t considered the best candidates for this sort of procedure? People with darker skin tones can absolutely have this procedure, but must proceed with caution as it can cause hyperpigmentation (excess pigmentation or darkening of skin) or hypopigmentation (excessive lack of color).

A temporary solution, however and a less expensive option is to cover up your tattoo with Dermablend’s Leg & Body Cover ($26, macys.com) which comes in 14 shades. This is a lightweight, full-coverage formula with sunscreen that not only hides tattoos, but it also covers stretch marks, spider veins, bruises, scars and burns. This formula is meant to cover large skin surfaces like your legs, arms and thighs. You can wear it for up to 16 hours and is smudge and transfer-resistant.

It’s Rihanna and her best friend/personal assistant Melissa!

Their relationship has been the subject of rumors for quite some time now.

It was sparked by their physical “closeness,” as well as the fact that they both have each other’s birthdays tattooed on them. Rihanna has “4.11.1986″ spelled out in roman numerals on her shoulder.

And now, those rumors are likely to come back full circle now that bloggers have noticed that Melissa’s new tattoo is exactly like Rihanna’s.

Last year, Rihanna got the words “never a failure always a lesson” on her chest. See it here: Rihanna’s New Tattoo: “Lesson Learned”!

What a coincidence: Melissa has the same phrase on her arm now.

Oscar nominee Gabourey Sidibe has developed a crippling fear of boxer Mike Tyson after finding herself frozen to the spot as he walked by her at a recent awards ceremony.

The Precious star, who landed her first Academy Award nomination on Tuesday, attended the Golden Globes in Hollywood last month, where Tyson was also a guest.

Sidibe didn’t speak a word to the retired boxer because she was scared off by his intimidating facial tattoo.

She explains, “At the Golden Globes Mike Tyson was there. I didn’t realise, but I’m terrified of Mike Tyson.

“I saw him and I was standing with my manager and said, ‘Don’t move, don’t move’. There’s something about him. I’m sure he’s a very nice man, but there’s something about a face tattoo. It says, ‘I’ve gone as far as I want to go in society’ and it makes me want to take a few steps back. I’m sure he’s nice though.”

Gabourey on confidence: “It’s A Mind Game, Not A Body Game”

Rihanna’s friends are concerned that she’s not taking care of herself.  According to celebrity-gossip.net, RiRi’s friends says all she does is party and hang out late.

A source tells Britain’s Now magazine, “Every night’s the same. She goes clubbing, downs shots and manages to stay up until the early hours.”

Reportedly, the singer’s friends are also worried about the tattoos she’s been getting – the most recent one containing a message saying “Never a failure, always a lesson” inked on her breast.

A concerned friend says, “She’s impulsive: she goes all out for something, but when it’s a 
tattoo, you can’t take it back.”

Has Chris Brown finally replaced Rihanna?

A tattoos can be a sexy, meaningful means of self expression. Many people indulge in this semi-masochistic ritual, adorning their bodies with all sorts of images and words.  But unfortunately, as with every thing else, some are unable to gauge where sexy becomes tacky. Sure, a small symbol tucked neatly behind the ear is cute, but a huge big black blob that seems to be consuming your entire neck is gross. Seriously, do you really need a humongous cross on your entire upper arm ladies? Keep Jesus (or your deity of choice) in your hearts and off of your biceps. Please. Here is a list of body parts that you should bypass when considering your tattoo options.

1) Face

It is quite obvious why the face is an unfavorable tattoo placement option. First impressions really are everything. If you have a tattoo on your face then everyone’s first opinion of you will be defined, not by your character, but by whatever is on your mug. Did anyone look at Danger and think, “wow, she seems like a nice person”? No. You all said, “wtf, does that chick have a face tat?”

2) Neck

This one is just a natural progression from the face.  You your neck is a relatively small surface area. Don’t go filling it up with black ink! If you do like the idea of having your neck tatted up, try more subtle designs. Small images or words placed at the back of the neck near the hairline or near the ear are among the sexiest tattoos. Think simple, or else just don’t even think about a neck tattoo.

3) Lower Back

The lower back is just naturally one of the sexiest places on a woman. Put a tattoo on it, and you’ve ruined its natural allure. This spot is so popular amongst the wannabe-sexy gals that it has unofficially been renamed the “tramp stamp.” Avoid this spot at all costs.

4) Shoulder

Subtlety, once again, is key with the shoulder tattoo.  If you ink your entire shoulder and upper arm, it will look masculine. No matter how pretty that angel is, you will still look like a biker if you go ahead and put her on your whole arm.  This is one of the most noticable areas on the body, so use your best judgement when deciding whether or not yuo want to put a mural on it.

5) Breast

If you put two claws on your boobs, it will say two things about you:

a) You like the idea of a small rabid beast trying to scratch your chest off; or,

b) You are in need of attention, so you put huge claws on your breasts to make people look at them.

Both, not so good.  Blatantly directing attention to your breasts is in fact a negative thing. Again, subtlety is key. Boobie tattoos are among the easiest ways for you to look tacky.
