The thing that I wonder is why anyone gives a care. I know that if I shaved my head to get a tattoo, only a few people would hear about it. It would eventually get around, but jeez.

Some of the people on here are just RUDE. You don't know Britney, what she is like, or anything about her personality. First of all I would love to see 10 to 50 people with cameras following you around EVERY TIME YOU LEFT THE HOUSE. Yeah after 10 years of this you would be pretty smurfed up too. about her tattoo being stupid. I mean come on "Some can be cool, I guess" jesus christ, if you get a tattoo because its cool you are the biggest retard of all time. You get a tattoo because it means something to you. I guarantee you don't know why she got lips, and further more It's non of your damn businesses. Really who the smurf to you think you people are. You people condemn these celebrates for smurf you see in the headlines and you don't know anything about the. It's not you smurfing business. I have known a few girls that shaved there head for one reason or another. It didn't change who they were. People who follow celebrates' life's must not have a life them self.

ok. firstly...

I know I would act differently. That's just who I am. I'm not saying I'm better or anything. Just that I would handle myself differently.

The "some can be cool, I guess" wasn't meant as a "it's ok if it's a fashion statement." It was meant as a "if it really means a lot to you and doesn't serve to degrade you more than it serves as a meaningful symbol to you, than that's cool, I respect that." (I feel the same way about nose-rings and the like)

I totally understand that this kind of attention can damage someone (get in their head and mess with them, I mean).

I'm not judging anyone. Not saying she's a terrible mom, or that she has terrible friends, or she's a terrible, stupid person.

She's human. I get that. I'm also curious as to what drives someone to do the things they do (genuinely interested).

And it is my business.

Does anybody really know what time it is?
Does anybody really care?

So, um, art is about expression, right?
And, um, a tatoo is body are, right?
So, um, when someone gets a tatoo to, um, express something with their body, um, it's like none of our damn business and we shouldn't talk about it?

Yeah, um, that makes sense. Not!

Not always ... A lot of times tattoos are for personal beliefs or feelings.

With that in mind yes it is none of our business why people get tattoos.

I actually have a tattoo (which I am not sure many of you posting do.) However, my tattoo is on a place of my body that is concealed from the public 99% of the time and only a few select people know where it is.

That's fine.
However, unless Brittney has recently converted to a strict muslim sect, her tatoo is where everyone can see it - she didn't get it done to be a private tat. She's displaying it to the public, so of course the public will talk about it - just like her other tats she displays to the public (she might have some private ones, though I can't imagine where - not much real estate she doesn't display to the public)

I chose to have the tattoo there because I didn't want it to be for everyone to discuss. I put a lot of thought into my tattoo (and no it is not anything that can be remotely construed as dirty, naughty, etc.) It means so much to me and me alone. Whether someone chooses to put it in a place that can be seen, still doesn't mean that people have any idea what stands for or means to that person. Britney doesn't give a smurf what you, I, or anyone else in this forum thinks about her new tattoo, this is obvious by the fact that no one has said Britney called them up personally and asked permission. She is her own self, she can do what she wants. Stop trying to be her parents, she is allowed to have a life... geez!!!!

No one is trying to be her parents or tell her what to do.

I currently have 3 tats, but i've gotten 4. I'm hoping to get another soon.

I've considered shaving my head.

I have long hair and I have considered this as well when it is being particularly unmanageable. Maybe all her hair was bothering her and she just got fed up enough to cut it off?

It could happen!
