Have you seen the guy who put the star tattoos on the girl's face?

The young man is tattooed everywhere we can see. He has so many metal loops piercing his lower lip that he hisses when he talks. Just looking at him gives me a lot of questions and ideas about his mental status and personal history. He seems clear-headed as he speaks from behind his glasses and lip rings. He speaks English. You can get a look at him here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQClB2OC80A

I actually like the stars decorating the girl's face, though I understand her regret. I hope that she can find her inner strength to stand with herself, and be the star girl. It could take her places she never imagined. It's quite possible that she wanted the stars while in the company of this strange man, then changed her mind when she realized how upset her father was. There's no way of knowing from the little bit of news we get.

I like the pattern of the stars, but I think the stars themselves are bad. I've seen better. I can completely understand the girl's regret - even the large tattoo on my back that I dislike so much caused me weeks of guilt, shame and self-loathing. I can't imagine how much that would have been compounded, had it been done on my face.

She's very beautiful and maybe when the tattoos heal they will look better. They look swollen and scabbed right now.

That man - I have to wonder what would cause somebody to ring their mouth like that. It's ugly and frightening. I've seen people whose entire faces were metal but never somebody who did that to their mouth. He'd be an interesting case study, for sure.

Yeah....his face makes me wonder what secrets he keeps----why his mouth must be guarded with so much metal....
