Taz,
Please tell me that you were bored and thought this would be funny....please!
no fucking way. You've got to be joking...
NOPE ITS TRUE
Sorry guys!...This is the end of the world as we know it!
...................and I feel fine!!!!!!
Next thing you know it will be "Get your free 'Mean Girls' tattoo and 'How I Beat Anorexia and Crack', personally signed by Lindsay with any tribal butterfly tattoo!"
http://news.sawf.org/Entertainment/17988.aspx .. its true
Im sure it will be a very nice shop ,she clearly has alot of money to throw at it to start .
....London, Aug 10: Lindsay Lohan who is almost on a break from her hectic schedule, has found a new career which could suit her present lifestyle. She is all set to open a tattoo parlor in Los Angeles.
Instead of filming new flick Georgia Rule and promoting her pop career, she has been leisurely resting at home.
She recently had a fitting tattoo done on her hip which reads La Bella Vita (the beautiful life).
It has inspired her to open a new boutique-style parlor to cater for all her Hollywood pals.
Apparently she wants it to be cool, clean and clinical — in sharp contrast to the usual grimy backstreet joints.
“Lindsay is setting up her own tattoo place which will be like a trendy, glass-fronted fashion store. She will work on her own designs and will market it to young society people,” a friend of Lohan was quoted by The Sun, as saying.
“Lindsay wants to create a complete brand which will move into clothes and merchandising. She’s looking for business partners and tattooists to come in on it with her,” she added. (ANI)....
ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS!!!!!! I can't wait to get my Paris Hilton "That's hot!" across my chode!
Isn't it ironic that the press refers to her as Lilo.......................yet she looks like Stitch!!!
I just don't understand why movie stars feel that they have to dabble into other mainstreams to make a name for themselves. Very VERY few are successful at it and an overwhelming amount fail miserably.... We all remember what happened when Eddie Murphy tried to make a record ... "Party all the time!".... And now I hear David Hasselhoff's (sp?) ex wife is putting out a new album "inspired" by her overcoming the difficulties of her divorce.... I would have personally put out a record celebrating him not singing about the Berlin Wall anymore!
.... Why do I sense a new "reality" TV show spawning from this?
Since this is apparently true, I'm curious as to what kind of 'tattoo artist' is gonna work for her (be advised she's a whooping 20 years old). Wonder if she's going to be as big an asshole as Cory Hart and treat her 'artist' like
he does? I just hope this doesn't become the next 'Hollywood fad'- to own
Tattoo Studios...Doc
And let's not forget Bruce Willis' record..............................EEEYIKES!!
I'm sure that who ever ends up working there is going to have to be photogenic or at least photoshop friendly....
I can't wait for the new wave of "does anyone know where I can find that tattoo that they did in Lindsay's shop?" threads.
I hope for all of our sakes this girl does here fucking homework....
Like, Oh My God, totally, fer sure!!!!
Way? ... No way!?
The only way she is gonna get any REAL artists is to either pay them an assload of cash or get some over the hill burnouts!
Oh NO! No over the hill burnouts! Remember, "Apparently she wants it to be cool, clean and clinical — in sharp contrast to the usual grimy backstreet joints."
WELL EXCUSE ME FOR LIVING YOU CUNT!.... Damn it! I still don't feel any better! Where do they get these people who write this shit?!
Okay, since we're moving over into rip mode.......................she looks old........................like late 30's........................really!!! When you get in close and look at her skin................EWWWW!! She should get a full body cover up!!!! THAT'S WHAT I THINK, but I'm no one, so who cares.................
THANKS FOR POINTING OUT THAT "GRIMY BACKSTREET JOINTS"thing Jason...what an unmitigated BITCH!!...in one phrase she just insulted an entire profession!!....Man when I worked in Hollywood we were constantly tattooing these "stars" and 90% of them were just DICKS!!!! Talk about fucking attitudes!
Not all of them but most!
Yeah TAz, we should take her to mitigation!!!
Ummmm Tim...I think you may have meant LITIGATION?....
Or not!
No, I did mean MITIGATION.....................because you said she was UN-MITIGATED.....................but, you caught the gist of it.
I see her doing a ton of business for the 18-24 crowd, I just hope they don't do the under 18 crowd that you know will want a tattoo from Lindsay's palace of pain;-)
Blacktri
Guess they do a lot of tribal and heart o grams then.....................?
Woo hoo!!!!!!!! Get ready gang, lot's of cover up work coming!!
TCE
I play a damn good straight man for ya don't I Tim?...LOL!!!
You don't fool me................I can spot ya!
I hope herion eats the bitch alive.
Hey Murph...Wassup?...Hows biz?...Ya comin to our Helloween Ball?..Hope you can make it!...TAz
wats so bad about Paris?
Just the French...................
"She recently had a fitting tattoo done on her hip which reads La Bella Vita (the beautiful life). It has inspired her to open a new boutique-style parlor to cater for all her Hollywood pals."
“Lindsay is setting up her own tattoo place which will be like a trendy, glass-fronted fashion store. She will work on her own designs and will market it to young society people....”
Okay, define "cater to hollywood pals." And what fucking designs does she think that she is going to come up with to "market to young society people?"
lol.. she can go ahead to market to "young society people" also known as trendy.. all she wants.. and in ten years.. you guys're gonna have a lot of coverup work from this shop.. 'cause you know.. trends change.
HOLY JESUS SAINT FUCKING MARY OF CHRIST I HAVE READ IT ALL NOW!!!!!! Check out this fucking site!!!! A supposed tattoo blog site which refers to machines as GUNS! and you have to read some of the fucking ignorant shit people actually post in response!
http://www.tattooblog.org/entry/a-new-tattoo-for-lindsay-lohan/
Then check this out.... http://www.tattooblog.org/ .... Scroll down to the Lindsay acrticle and read what she is really planning to do with her "parlor." AND if you scroll two articles below it there is an article on "How to make a tattoo machine of your own!" ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS!!!!!
Oh, did I forget to mention that there is an article on a tattoo school as well..... =/
Will Hillary Duff be one of her first clients?
Sorry but if the Pussycat Dolls open a shop I'm closing shop and going there........dammit
I will be right behind ya....nekkid!!
did i mention i hope herion eats here alive.
Hows it going taz.Everything is good were i am at considering that there are people walking around dodging bullets in some countrys.I would say everythings great.I hope the same for you.
J-werk, I did check out those sites ya refered to and they are FUCKED,
damn this has been a shit day for sure (was, since it's now past midnight)
and it almost makes me wish I didn't know how to use a 'puter, ya know?
But, still, I guess it's still better to know what's going on, for good or bad, as playing ostrich (hiding your head in the sand) just gives others access to your backside, right? Fuckin' rich kids and their ego trips...Doc
Might not be a bad place to get a tat, clinical and maybe a nice view, but be prepared to pay 4X normal, X2 for the tat and X2 for the coverup.
I think I may have forgot a few multiples in there for trendiness(sp?) and stupidity.
I just noticed a lot of celebs are sporting "I am my beloved and my beloved is me." Celebrity Self worship.... hmmm. Also read further down and looked at that "art" holy c***... or s*** most of it could be described as either.
What a dork she is to even think it's necessary to do this. How about sponcering a poor kid with talent through art school?
I mean, for F sake, do it as a silent partner. She's young and dumb and.....
Ok, my kitty claws are coming out.
Meow
Freak.
Heavens Gates have opened...............finally! Hallellujah!!!!!!!!!
Mamacat...GREAT idea...although its something that would NEVER enter her mind!!Even though it would be great for her image!
This makes me want to shoot myself....
shooting yourself would be the least someone could do over something as stupid as this... Fuck... castoration with the blunt end of a hot butter knife sounds a bit less painful...
what is this industry coming too...
I feel sorry for anyone who works there...
thier rep is fucked

I too would be very interested in just who (Tattoo Artist(s) would be a part of
that fiacsco. If anyone hears/reads anything new DO post it...Doc
Now come on people...lets be realistic...she is gonna have artists knocking down her door for the chance to work at her STUDIO!!....Its sad but its true...she will probably have no difficulty in hiring decent tattoo artists who think that #1...they will make a name for themselves...and #2...who think they will make a lot of money (possibly true) I can almost guarantee that there will be at least one MTV show about this ...if not a whole series
The world she is a changin boys and girls!
Who the hell is Lindsay Lohan? And why do we care if she flings money at tattoo artists?
Just kidding. I know who she is. But - why do we care? D'you really think her venture - if it even lasts (consider Planet Hollywood) - will change the business?
Ras,
If she were opening a shop because of her love and respect for the art it would be one thing. But her thinking behind this is purely profit. Seriously, she is wanting to design her own "logo" and market this to the "trendy youth." ... Get real!
If you haven't done so, check out the websites that I posted on this thread that have a little more detail about what she "want's to do for the tattoo industry."....J
Thanks, Sir J. I've looked at the sites, and i still think and hope that the true-blue tattoo artists (who don't use "guns") have nothing to fear.
Aren't most businesses founded for profit? Maybe not "purely," but at least somewhat? Can we hope that she'll have the sense to hire artists and managers who know a thing or three?
In any case, won't the quality of her product and service be what determines her survival? Might it not be a good thing that someone with a fat wad of money - albeit a silly girl - is expanding the industry?
Yes, many buisnesses are founded on the bases of profit and growth. BUT the tattoo industry is different in the respect that if you ask an artist why they are doing what they are doing and hopefully they will tell you it is the art first and then everything else is secondary. And yes, there are "artists" that are purely in it for the money.... What can you do?
Yes, the quality of her product and service will determine her success and her failure. That is a given. BUT on the other hand, although she obviously has money to spare, it is hardly the tattoo industry that she will be "helping" to expand. Remember, that she wants, "to open a new boutique-style parlor to cater for all her Hollywood pals." And she “wants to create a complete brand which will move into clothes and merchandising."
That is hardly what the tattoo industry is about.
I've quit professional prophecy for about a year now, so what follows is strictly guesswork.
I foresee that in LL's business, she'll sell four hundred t-shirts for every half a tattoo. Wristbands and mousepads will be the hot commodities. "Brand" stuff and "merchandise" will fly off the shelves, and a couple young bloods will pop in for their designer (ha-ha, accidental irony!) tattoos.
Before you can say "funny you don't look jewish", the tattoo store with a Lindsay component will be a Lindsay store where you can get a tattoo on the days the artist comes to work.
So, LA crowd, get your doodads now - they'll be collector's items in no time!
And all of this ram-roding because of a latin phrase she had tattooed on her hip....
TAz,
We can all take comfort in the fact that at least one of her early prospects told her to go fuck herself!!!
TCE
Can anyone say.. "Maimi Ink 2: Hollywood Edition"
