Picture 2I can’t imagine who actually believed this Belgian girl’s story: she initially claimed that she asked a tattoo artist for 3 stars on her face, fell asleep, and woke up with 56 stars instead of the 3. Yea, having a needle in my face for hours always makes me sleepy too… 

She went on to allege that the Flemish tattoo artist didn’t understand her French and English and discussed suing him to have laser surgery to remove the stars. It came as no surprise (to me) that the star spangled facial was, in fact, intended. The girl said she lied because her father was “furious” after seeing her face. (A-DUH!) The tattoo artist, Rouslan Toumaniantz, says he doesn’t resent the situation, but rather is pleased with the publicity it has brought him.
