What happen on Lindsay Lohan's Stripper Pole Shoot On 'Double Exposure'

This is what happened when Lindsay came for her photo shoot on Bravo's reality show 'Double Exposure.'

Sarah Channels Emma Goldman

I recently had the intense displeasure of discovering that my camera had broken. For someone whose spare time is spent taking pictures of other people's tattoos, this was a harrowing experience, especially since my BlackBerry's camera is flash-less and takes good pictures under only specific lighting conditions.

So what's a poor inkspotter to do? Pass out his card and hope for the best.

And despite dozens of cards distributed to many people with cool tattoos, the only one who has really come through for me is Sarah, who I met last Friday on the subway platform at West Fourth Street, as I waited for the D train to Brooklyn.

Possessor of several tattoos, the one of Sarah's I spotted was on her inner left forearm. My photo was blurry and, as the D pulled into West Fourth, she handed me her card so I could follow-up with her. Thankfully, she is a woman of her word, and sent me this photo yesterday:

Since Sarah is a writer and journalist, I'll let her do the talking. You can check out her work at  her website ohyouprettythings.net and/or read her blog at champagnecandy.tumblr.com. Sarah explains:

It says "It's not my revolution if I can't dance to it"

The tattoo is my most recent, and it's a paraphrase of a possibly-apocryphal Emma Goldman quotation. It's a line that spoke to me the first time I heard it. I'm a political journalist and a feminist activist, and Goldman's always been someone I looked up to. Also, I became a political person through music, and dancing and music have a particular significance for me.


It was done by Ryoko at Brooklyn Tattoo [who we most recently saw inked Julie Powell's tattoo here] and she's super-awesome...

As a lover of type tattoos, I had inquired about the font used and Sarah did not disappoint: "the font is Garton and the words revolution and dance are in Miama".

Thanks to Sarah for sharing her tattoo with us here on Tattoosday!

Featured Video - 'Before the Music Dies' Documentary

Click here to skip to the blogroll

I just finished watching this documentary on Hulu, and thought it would be very fitting to share here. Those of you who run blogs and visit this site are probably all too well aware of the current problems within the music industry. However, some of you may be unaware of the forces behind the decision making processes, as well as the deceptive techniques used to create todays "stars". This video aims to reveal these deceptions, the motivation behind the decisions, as well as cast a critical eye on the so called "stars" themselves. It features great commentary by several established acts. Erykah Badu delivers some of the most refreshingly honest commentary on the entire video, particularly her comments relating to women hoping to make it in the industry. Here is a synopsis of the plot, which was posted on imdb.com

"Before the Music Dies takes a critical look at the homogenization of popular music with commentary by some of the industry's biggest talents like Eric Clapton, Dave Matthews, Elvis Costello, Erykah Badu, Branford Marsalis, Bonnie Raitt and more. Using historic footage the film looks at the evolution of American music and the artists who created it and pulls back the curtain (in a very creative way) to expose the sad truth behind today's "artificial" music stars. "The reality is that superficiality is in," says Marsalis. "And depth and quality is kind of out." Inspired by the death of his brother, director Andrew Shapter and his crew traveled thousands of miles, visiting dozens of cities, speaking with hundreds of fans, journalists, record executives and musicians while searching for "real" American music. What they found were mega-talents without a major label, including one artist Eric Clapton believes is "the real thing.

This is the first video that I have posted here, so I hope you all enjoy it, and please let me know if you would like to see more videos/documentaries relevant to the music industry posted here in the future.

In Loving Memory Tattoo Options

An excellent idea for a tattoo is "in loving memory" tattoos. It's also an excellent reason to get a tattoo. Saluting, symbolizing, and forever remembering someone who was important to you.

There are different options for getting a in loving memory tattoo. Here are some to consider:

1. Banner and Lettering.

Keep in mind that there are different design ideas available for your lettering and your banner. Cursive style lettering is very popular for in loving memory tattoos. The standard banner design is also hugely popular. But a banner design isn't required, and you have several different font options for your lettering.

Look at all the different options. Is there a certain font style that you feel connects more with person you are inking tribute to? Would a banner work better for the accompanying design?

2. Personal designs.

Think of any designs, photos, objects, or anything personal about the person you can use as a design to accompany the lettering. This could be tricky translating it over onto a tattoo design, but it likely can be done in one way or another, or at least certain aspects of a photo or object can be workable.

Options for personal designs could be anything from a favorite hat or article of clothing the individual would wear to an actual photo of the person himself.

3. Symbol Designs.

These are the most common, and sometimes the most powerful design options. You have many design choices to choose from. You want to find a tattoo design that you feel speaks to or symbolizes the person you are remembering. You can choose tattoos which symbolize strength, beauty, solidarity, or many other attributes you feel relate to the person.

A common in loving memory tattoo to get is the heart tattoo. This simply expresses your love for that person, and that they'll always remain close to your heart. You can find a vast array of different styles of heart tattoos to choose from.

Brian y Megan de Luna de Miel

Como todo el mundo sabe, Foxy y Brian se han casado. Y ahí está el problema, que todo el mundo lo sabe. Tmz.com nos trae en exclusiva unas imágenes de Megan y Brian disfrutando de su Luna de Miel en Hawaii, unas imágenes muy graciosas (con Brian enterrando a Kassius). Pero yo tengo que reconocer que, por primera vez, me ha dado apuro ver las fotos, y me ha dado apuro porque una cosa es que los paparazzi te sigan por la calle y esas cosas y otra es estar en tu Luna de Miel, con el niño... No sé, creo que ya es meterse demasiado en la vida de alguien, pero bueno, a continuación las imágenes:

Tattoo Designs & Your First Tattoo - What's Right For You, What to Avoid

There are so many different options when choosing a tattoo design, it's often overwhelming at first. You know you're ready to get your first tattoo. Fortunately for the current younger generations, getting a tattoo isn't as taboo as it used to be. You no longer have people staring at you like you're an old sailor or are fresh out of prison. In fact, tattoos have become quite socially acceptable - after all, all your friends have them, models have them, movie stars have them, rock stars have them.

Tattoos are a great way of self expression, but how do you stand out from everyone else's "I love Sheila" or "I heart Mom" tattoos? There's nothing better than a unique design, but a design that is still very meaningful to you, even though it might not be totally unique can be perfect. Why is it so important to have a unique design? Well, other than the fact that you'll have the ink permanently (important to remember at all times before deciding to get a tattoo - laser removal isn't perfect yet) it's always great to have a unique story.

Here's an example - a friend of this author got one of those copy-and-paste "tribal" tattoos. He's pretty popular with the ladies, and the first thing they always ask is, "Oh wow, this is really neat, what does it mean?" So he has to sit there and explain that it doesn't really mean anything, he just thought it looked neat. Not very smooth.

A different friend has an amazing sleeve (two, actually), all the images intertwined and coalescing in a very artistic way. They were custom drawings, drawings from his favorite artists, and so on - whenever a person asks him why he got the tattoos or what the designs mean, he has great stories to tell.

So there's the difference between your run of the mill tattoo design, and a tattoo design that has plenty of meaning behind it. You've got that part down, so what should you avoid?

Well, unless you actually know a person that speaks Mandarin, Cantonese, Japanese, or any other Asian language and can confirm the character you're having stamped on your butt doesn't say "more ketchup please," the best advice is to just avoid that style of tattoo all together. In this author's opinion, it's no longer unique, it's very played out.

Don't be afraid when getting "inked" for the first time. It's not quite as painful as you might have heard. Some people even enjoy the experience. Just make sure it's not one that you'll regret - you'll have that tattoo design for quite a long while.

Ganesh Waits for the A Train

Actually, Kerry was waiting on the platform for the uptown A Train when I walked by at 34th Street.

How could I not stop and ask her about this tattoo:

This absolutely stunning depiction of the Hindu deity Ganesh took between eight and nine hours to complete.

Guy Ursitti at Thicker Than Water is the tattooist responsible for this work of art, the newest (at the time I met her) of Kerry's approximately fifty tattoos.

The detail in the tattoo is absolutely incredible.

Work from Thicker Than Water has appeared previously on Tattoosday here.

Thanks to Kerry for sharing this amazing tattoo with us here on Tattoosday!

¡Megan y Brian se han casado!

Rumores, rumores y más rumores, ¡años de rumores! Y al fin, confirmado. Tal y como comentábais algunos, la noticia ya está dando la vuelta al mundo. Brian Austin Green y Megan Fox se han casado en Hawaii, en el "Four Seasons Resort" de dicho lugar. De la ceremonia no se ha filtrado (de momento) ninguna imágen pero sabemos que fué pequeña (con pocos invitados), íntima y con una seguridad del copón para que nadie abriera la boca o hiciera algo raro.

Al parecer a la pareja le habría encantado el lugar tras pasar unos días hace unas semanas y decidieron volver para casarse... y allí siguen, de Luna de Miel. Enhorabuena a la feliz pareja.

Megan y Brian en Hawaii, atención porque se rumorea que se han casado

Mirad a Foxy que mona con un sombrero que es más grande que ella, si es que no se puede ir mejor por la playa que con un pedazo de sombrerón, la botella de agua, el móvil... Pues eso, que esto sería de postal veraniega sino fuera porque gracias a Megan-Fox.net (cortesía de ellos las imágenes) nos comunican que, si nos fijamos bien en la foto donde salen Brian y Megan, ambos llevan anillos de casados. Esto en mi pueblo quiere decir que se han casado y no se ha enterado ni Cristo. A la espera estoy de más información.

Lindsay Lohan to act in a new reality TV show

Lindsay Lohan is to act in a new reality TV show. Her mother Dina and three siblings will also act in this show.

Dina told the New York Post newspaper: "We have already started filming. The cameras follow us in our daily lives and as we promote our businesses.

" I want to prove that we are a good, hardworking family and we don't have the crazy lives that some people claim we do.

"The show will feature my kids, and Lindsay will also appear in some episodes, although she's very busy filming and promoting her fashion lines. We're discussing a deal with a major network."

Sean Shares a Host of Traditional Tattoos

I ran into Sean at the Foodtown in my neighborhood and when I stopped to talk to him about his tattoos (he has nine), I ended up with photos of several pieces, all of which reside on his left arm.

Most of the designs are traditional tattoo subjects, all of which were inked by Eli Quinters at Smith Street Tattoo Parlour in  Brooklyn. Work from Smith Street Tattoo has appeared previously on Tattoosday here.

First up is this amazing lighthouse:

Sean explained that this tattoo is for his mother, as this tattoo is based on her "favorite lighthouse," the Fastnet Lighthouse on the most southerly point on the coast of Ireland.

Then there is this owl tattoo:

This was done for no other reason that Sean has always liked owls. If you love owl tattoos, be sure to head over to this site.

Then there is the elephant tattoo:

He has this piece because "elephants never forget".

I know we posted a sugar skull yesterday, but here's another one:

This was all Eli's design. Sean gave him free reign and likes the fact that it is unusual in that there are not a lot of colors in it, like one sees in most sugar skull tattoos. For all that have appeared on Tattoosday previously, check this link.

There is also the traditional female figure, not modeled after anyone in particular, just done in a traditional style:

And Sean's last tattoo is this bat:

He told Eli that he "wanted something spooky" that included the moon. Quinters free-handed this piece, starting with a white Sharpie and then finished with a darker Sharpie before finishing the tattoo.

What's neat about all of Sean's tattoos is that they flow nicely together, as readers can see elements of many of the tattoos on the borders of the photos of specific designs.

Thanks to Sean for sharing these amazing tattoos by Eli Quinters with us here on Tattoosday!
