Tattoos are just one of many ways to express one’s individuality. While some people go with a little tattoo, others go all out, decorating entire body parts.
Tristan Weigelt, a 26-year-old tattoo apprentice covered in extreme body art, made headlines after showing what he looked like prior to using his body as a canvas.
The before photos were astounding.
Weigelt’s journey to covering 95 percent of his body in tattoos began when he was 20.
“It’s kind of weird looking at myself without all the tattoos,” he told the Daily Star.
“But funnily enough I still feel exactly the same as before on the inside.”
Out of all the tattoos, he said the most painful were the ones he got on his face and head, comparing it to being scraped with a metal brush.
“It was six full day sessions taking between five and six hours and the pain was probably an eight out of 10.”
While many people get a tattoo with a special meaning in mind, Weigelt said there are no hidden messages or meanings behind his body art.
After five years, Weigelt has spent $50,000 on tattoos.
For those considering a tattoo, Weigelt says, “Get what you love and what makes sense to you. I see so many people worried about a certain tattoo fitting them or it not being their style. If you like it – then get it.”
Wow. What an incredible transformation!
Would you ever consider getting tattoos on your entire body? I’m not sure I would.
Miranda Lambert Stops Another Concert and Finally Responds to the ‘Selfie Backlash’
Miranda Lambert seemed to have no regrets about embarrassing one of her fans, even in the face of the criticism.
The country music star is currently the main attraction at a Vegas residency slot, as Mamas Uncut previously revealed. Additionally, she abruptly ended her performance last week to yell at a fan at one of her shows.
Lambert reportedly noticed a fan who had paid to attend her event snapping a “selfie” as she was singing her song “Tin Man.” In front of the whole audience, Lambert used the occasion to call out the paying fan.
“I’m going to stop for a minute,” she declared. The woman she was gesturing to was then told by Lambert to stop taking selfies rather than enjoying the music.
I’m a little annoyed that these females are preoccupied with their selfie and aren’t listening to the song. I’m sorry, but I really dislike it. Tonight, we’re here to listen to some country music. I’m performing some damn country music.
Lambert resumed his performance as the woman put her phone aside. Fans of Lambert were eager to applaud her when she called out the “selfie-takers” during the performance.
After her most recent performance, Lambert halted her show once more when she noticed a fan sporting a t-shirt that said, “Shoot tequila, not selfies.” Lambert apparently liked the shirt.
The crowd was informed by Lambert that her blouse read, “Shoot tequila, not selfies.” “I didn’t do it; she did!”
Lambert’s decision to add salt to the wound has now angered people even more. “Whoa! One commenter commented, “It’s unbelievable that this is how she’s responding to her rudeness.”
Some social media users were equally supportive of Lambert’s behavior as the other concertgoers appeared to be. One Twitter user remarked, “How to humiliate and shame your devoted fans who love you.” She could have made fun of them, posed for the selfie, and then urged them to live in the present. Not cool.
“The goal of attending a concert is to make memories and have an experience. Another Twitter user commented, “Anyone should be able to take a picture to record that memory.”
Since then, the alleged “self-taker” has released the pictures she shot and offered a response to Lambert’s behavior. When asked how long it took to take the photo before they went back to their seats, Adela Calin responded, “It was 30 seconds at most.” She also added that they “took the picture quickly and were going to sit back down.”
But Miranda Lambert has already called them out before they can reach that stage. Calin acknowledged that she was “appalled” by Lambert’s denigration of them in front of thousands of people.
She remarked, “It felt like I was back at school, with the teacher telling me to sit down again in my place and reprimanding me for doing something wrong.” “… She seemed intent on making us appear youthful, conceited, and immature. However, we were merely mature women in our 30s to 60s attempting to capture a photo.
