16-Year-Old Confesses To Shooting That Caught Girl In Crossfire
Sexual Harassment On Subways An "Underreported Crime"
Last week, an 18-year-old Belgian girl claimed that a Romanian tattoo artist mistakenly put 53 tattoo stars too many on her face. Kimberley Vlaeminck, who said she wanted three stars near her eye, sued the tattoo artist for $14,000 for the cost of removing the tattoos, while Rouslan Toumaniantz maintained Vlaeminck wanted all 56 stars. Now the teen has confessed to her misguided desire: "I asked for 56 stars and initially adored them. But when my father saw them, he was furious. So I said I fell asleep and the that the tattooist made a mistake." As for Toumaniantz, he said the hubbub gave him publicity, but he will require clients to sign consent forms. It's unclear whether Vlaeminck is getting the tattoos removed, but if she does, it could take a while—as local dermatologist Dr. Jonathan Zizmor told us, "If you come in and say take it off in one time, it doesn't make a difference on the size. You have to come in multiple times so it goes away. Sometimes on certain colors it doesn't work well."

And in one afternoon, Kimberley Vlaeminck eliminated all chances to be taken seriously by anyone for the rest of her life.
Slow news day? Is this only relevant to NY because you talked to Dr Zizmor?
any excuse to see dr. zizmor is a good one.
Who doesn't love Dr. Z?
Well that was a brilliant plan she came up with. Because I know I always fall asleep to the soothing, calming pleasure of having a fucking needle being driven into my face thousands upon thousands of times.
LOVED your Dr. Z interview!
i will poo on her face 56 times.
That made me laugh out loud in the office!
I fell asleep reading this article
There should be a mandatory 3 day waiting period so people can mull over their tattoos choices.
That should cut down 90% of the business.
LMAO. She's never going to be hired for a job with those tats on her face.
Even if it were just the 3 stars she claims to have wanted, nobody but a strip club would have taken her.
It's a fact, kids: Facial tattoos are only a good idea when you're already in prison.
Not true! She can have a long and rewarding career in telemarketing.
Or a career as a heavy weight boxing champion which I'm sure she's well on her way though she needs a little more tribal tats to go along with those stars.
She doesn't need a job. She can get amnesty as an illegal, and collect welfare. All she needs is hope and change.
This reminds me of this great Japanese video I saw one time where these guys all gathered arou.....
video of girl with stars on my face, LOL

wait on her face, LOL.
wait on her face, LOL.
I wonder if the tattoo artist will sue her now for trying to ruin his name or business.
WTF???? Did you see picture of the man who did the tattoos on her?

I'd hit that ;-)
NOT
A teenage girl lied, you say!?!
Fox news is going to have a field day with this. While watching the "news" channel under duress last week, they covered the story in length for two days in a row!
Tyson seems thrilled that there's another person as dumb as he is: http://www.popcrunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/tyson-tattoo.jpg
Come on people the story ended on an up note. Her boyfriend realized finally that the girl he fell in love with is a total fucking asshole. Therefore no marriage and no more procreating additional assholes.
it's probably a defense mechanism for her so she doesn't get sold into the skin trade. She's from the eastern bloc and as we all know from the movie TAKEN and LILLA that women in those countries get triple stacked.
...She's not from the Eastern Bloc

These are the Tattoos you can see. Imagine what's on the rest of her.
Clearasil?
excellent!
With one pathetic gesture, she's ensured a life of disappointment from here on out.
I dearly hope my kids never hate me enough to become this stupid.
STOOOPID GIRL!
STOOOPID GIRL!
Come on, there are creative fields she could be in with those face tattoos. Who says she's going to be a corporate lawyer? As long as she is in an area that is progressive and artistic and she persues a career like that. Let's not be a bunch of fuddy-duds.
Picture those tats on her face when she's 50.
they will look like shooting stars across her face.
Another stupid girl who blamed a man for her mistake, stupid b-i-t-c-h.
