I Do….. Nah! I Tattoo!

keyshia-boobie-tattoo-300x268 There is a trend among celebrities and people in general where they feel that when you are in a relationship, in order to seal your love for each other you should get a tattoo of the other person’s name.  Instead of getting married and letting the world know that you are committed to each other, it is thought that  a tattoo better represents that commitment.  Huh? I say if you have to get one at least wait till after you have said your I do’s. That of course does not guarantee that you won’t regret the tattoo later, ( look at Nas and Kelis) but at least you won’t look as stupid getting your husband’s name on you rather than your boyfriend’s.  No matter how pseudo the relationship may be, you have to give credit to  Nick and Mariah for waiting until they took the big leap before they got tatts. Most recently I have seen Jermaine Dupri with a big ass tattoo of Janet Jackson’s face on his chest. Keyshia Cole also has her boyfriend of a few months name tattooed near her shoulder.

Maybe I am a bit old fashion but I can’t imagine having my boyfriend’s name tattooed on me. It seems like a cheap and childish manner of expressing commitment.  This mark will be on you forever. Unless you plan on having painful laser surgery to remove it. I figure if you and this person know that you will be together forever then why not just get married. Wow, there’s a thought. Yeah, marriage. Remember that? You know when you exchange vows and promise to be with each other for the rest of your life. Seems a lot less painful than getting needled up for love. Personally, I don’t think that it is ever a wise choice to get a significant others name tattered on you.

On a side note, I am especially upset at Keyshia Cole. She is always singing about getting her heart broken and learning from those lessons. An act like this makes her loose all credibility. What exactly did you learn? In fact, wasn’t she just with Jeezy not too long ago? She hasn’t even been with this new man for a couple of years and she has branded his name on her. At least Jermaine and Janet have been dating for 5 plus years.  Keyshia Cole  is stupid. Yeah I said it. She is stupid. She is stupid for choosing to go the ghetto love route and get a tattoo rather than a ring. Why not? You obviously have your minds made up that you are going to be together forever after only a few months so don’t half ass it. Make it official.
