Do you think it’s a bad idea to copy celebrity tattoos?

For example, I like Rihanna’s. I know all that thing about individuality, I also know that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. And I’m gonna say that they were inspired by Rihanna. So what do you think?

    I don’t think that its bad. I have Rhiannas tattoo on my ear and no body said anything. Which one are you getting? all the starts that goes down on her spine? and if that is the case no but I would prefer to get it done from your shoulder to your back.

  11. NicoleReanee Says:

    are you talking about the one on her neck?
    that one’s kinda cool I think, I really like her, but Ikd Copying other people is really lame.

    You can be inspired by her tattoo without completely copying it. I agree that a tattoo should speak about someones individuality and personality. Maybe change it around a little so it’s something similar…but more your own.

    no, why is it stupid? if you like it then you like it. how do you know rihanna didnt copy it from someone else? if it means something to you then its worth it. just dont regret it. :)

  14. spyro Says:

    It is a bad idea to copy anybody’s tattoos. Tattoos are meant to be individual. By all means if you see a tattoo that you like then you shoudn’t not get it just because someone has it but if you are getting a tattoo just because someone else has one then it is not a good idea and also a bit creepy.

  15. Kalynn S Says:

    do what you want its your body but in my opinion tats should be original, never copied…it should come from your own inspiration…i like it when they mean something…like all of mine mean something to me

  16. September Song! Says:

    Tacky. And just imagine what it will look like on you in 40 years, long after the celebrity is forgotten anyhow. Think about it, but I’m sure you’lll do what you want to. Anyhow, why do you admire her–is she really a good role model for insecure media- driven teen girls? ( apparently!)

  17. MGHJ Says:

    It is always lame to copy anyone’s tattoo. And no respectable tattooist should go along with it should you want to. They will almost always change quite a bit in a design or refuse to do it outright.

  18. earthangel5998 Says:

    I think you should do whatever you want. Why should you care if people think it’s lame? If you like it that is all that counts. However a tat is a big decision that you will probably live with for many years.

    I got some tattoos, one inspired by a tat I saw on a woman in a movie, and now I am ready to remove a couple. And there are ways to do that, but still think a long time before getting inked.

    No It’s great to have someone you love on your body

  20. leacoa81 Says:

    That’s a great idea

  21. BO#44 Says:

    any tattoo is lame, whether it belongs to a celebrity or not, they’re just stupid.

  22. Lorena L Says:

    Yes just because everyone will know you copies her. But then again if you just copy the spot and get something way different then i wouldn’t think thats dumb.

  23. 2boyzmommy Says:

    Honestly I think it is a bad idea to copy any ones tattoo. Unless you are getting them done together for sentimental meaning.

  24. Roxy =] Says:

    which one the stars on her neck?

    loads of people have got the stars

    xxx

  25. Cotton Candy Says:

    Yes,because it’s not something that is special to you. Nor is it unique, it’s best to think of something that has a lot of personal meaning. Then have the tattoo artist make it unique for you.

  26. Blondie Says:

    If you really like it then get it. I love Rihannas tattoos also. I always thought about getting the little starts on my neck like hers. You shouldnt not get a tattoo just because she has it. Good luck :)

  27. crow jane Says:

    Well what do you do when your “role model” gets indicted for child molestation or something? Also, that’s just stupid. I don’t even want to copy my friends, and they are my friends.

  28. nattyzworld Says:

    that’s kinda lame… don’t copy people

  29. Icing over a secret pain♄ Says:

    Inspiration for a tattoo should come from you.
    Your creativity not some one elses.
    A tattoo, to me. is like a window to your soul. It reflects the person you are..
    If you copy some one then where’s the meaning? Youre going to be alot older one day and regret it.
    When some one asks you about it what are you going to say “oh I liked Rhianna’s tattoo so I got a similar one” that has no meaning.
    One of my tattoos for example says “My angel 01-26-09″
    This was the due date of my baby that I lost. It took a big part of me.
    So this tattoo is a part of me because that baby was a part of me.

    It means something to me.

    That may not be the best example but just choose something from you. That states who you are.

    If you brought a picture of a tattoo on someone else’s body to my shop, I wouldn’t tattoo it. I would recommend a custom tattoo with the same theme or concept, but, regardless, celebrity or everyday person, you should never copy another person’s tattoo.

  31. Featherweight. Says:

    Dont like have the complete tattoo, just change a few thing here and there,
    Like i want the same tattoo of Nicole Richie [at the back of my neck] but she has a bow with her name underneath, and i want a little swallow or dove, holding a little branch.

  32. JamieGRL Says:

    wayyy lame to copy !!!!

  33. cssantiago6 Says:

    Think about how many people have tribal tattoos…
    The idea is to do something that makes it your own. Change up the shape or add something to it that makes it individual. Tattoos are such a personal thing. Who cares what people think?! If you want it, get it. You can always add to it later if you want.
