I just saw the new show she did, and saw the big tat on her right arm. I got the same ill feeling that I did when I saw her Tinkerbell tat for the first time. Honestly, I couldn't even watch the new video the whole way through.
I got over Tinkerbell, chalked it up to youthful rebellion. It can also easily be covered with a shirt. These new ones have got progressively larger and more unavoidable. Her right arm is now almost a complete sleeve. This new one is visible at all times with the short sleeved blouses and dresses she wears. I'm not sure I can get over this one.
She said she is "getting back to her roots" with the new album. Many of us feel her "roots" involved her image just as much as her music.... these tats are as far from that original image as can be. Color me confused.
I still can't wait to hear the album. I hope all this works out for her!
