Well, well, well! The silly little idiot<\/a> who claimed she had fallen asleep whilst having a tattoo – and ended up with 56 stars on her face instead of just three (is any<\/em> face tattoo something anyone with a sound mind would consider?) has admitted she lied (see story here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

But the 18-year-old has finally confessed she did not fall asleep, that she wanted all the stars and was ‘fully aware’ of what Toumaniantz was doing.<\/p>\n

Miss Vlaminck [Vlaeminck] told a Dutch TV crew: ‘I asked for 56 stars and initially adored them.<\/p>\n

‘But when my father saw them, he was furious.<\/p>\n

‘So I said I fell asleep and that the tattoist had made a mistake.’<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The tattooist – every time I see his photo I imagine I’m having a nightmare – is now off the hook. He originally offered to pay half of what it would cost to have them removed (I bet he was pooping himself over what could happen if he were successfully sued):<\/p>\n

But despite insisting Vlaminck had asked for 56 stars, he still initially agreed to pay for half of the treatment to remove the tattoos.<\/p>\n

He said: ‘Kimberley is unhappy and it is not my wish to have an unsatisfied client.<\/p>\n

‘I don’t regret it. To tell you the truth, this has given me some publicity.’<\/p>\n

Toumanaintz is now said to have withdrawn his offer and said from now on he will get written consent from clients before he begins tattooing.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As for Vlaminck… well, I suppose some people are always going to be at the back of the queue when it comes to using their brains. She just started very early in life, and will carry the stigma (and remains of those stars) for a long time to come.<\/p>\n

EDIT 26\/3\/2012:<\/strong> I get regular hits on this story \u2013 more recently, asking what became of Kimberley Vlaminck. According to this story<\/del>\u00a0[link no longer correct] she was to have laser surgery \u2013 paid for by herself, not someone she\u2019d accused \u2013 to remove them last year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
