Anyone catch this yet? It's the spinoff from Miami Ink, headed up by Kat Von D. Pros: Hot tattoo chicks. Cons: It's L.A. Kat, her sidekick, Pixie, and 90% of their clients are attention whores. Inital thoughts- well. I'm watching it now, and I've watched it for a few hours. These chicks are hot, and I'm a guy. And my wife doesn't mind it, because she has her own brand of haterade. Kat has lost about 30 lbs and wears a bikini top about half the time. If you liked her before, you'll like her even more now. She's out of her shell here, and is much more outgoing...very outgoing, especially with the guys who come in the shop. Speaking of guys, I have no clue where her husband is. I'm sure that they will do a show on them splitting up. No shocker there. Oh, and Kat is considering a boob job. Can't hate on that. Her staff consists of a couple of pretty female tattoo artists, one tattoo guy who seems kind of reserved, and her 'manager' 'Pixie'. Pixie is on screen almost as much as Kat. She's a huge attention w****. Everything about her is geared towards getting attention- boob job, bright green glasses, pierced dimples, and a star tattoo between her boobs, as if her cleavage wasn't enough. She constantly pops up in the shots where the artists are working, screwing with the clients to get camera time. She's drop dead gorgeous, though. I haven't decided if her tattoos and body modifications- multiple piercings and a split tounge which each side moves independently- make her sexier or gross. She's the kind of girl you meet in a bar because she's gorgeous but then walk away from because she's so obnoxiously trying to be the center of attention. All of the artists are incredibly talented. There have already been some minor celebs on the few shows that have aired- Eve, some skaters, band guys, some model guy..not many of note. I'll probably keep watching it because it's reality TV, which I'm a sucker for, and has hot women, who I'm also a sucker for.
I never really watched Miami Ink. I watched this show once and Pixie was so incredibly annoying, I decided I wouldn't turn it back on no matter how hot some of them might be. When they were still putting the shop together and Pixie went in and started demanding explanations from the construction workers and they looked at her like she was nuts, that was it for me.
You're not. She was on Miami Ink, and you shouldn't know that. I only knew it because of another thread here.
I watched Miami Ink every now and then back then, but now I just skip it. I haven't seen LA Ink. I wonder when they are going to branch out to Vegas Ink, and New York Ink, and Chicago Ink, and Cancun Ink. It's almost like CSI.
There's already another tat show in Las Vegas with the shop in one of the casino hotels. I think the Palms.
