Whoopsies For Britney

[BorderEevilIII]

Well it looks like Britney did NOT do her homework on a tattoo she had on when she finds out what it really means....(daily dish/sfgate.com)

BRITNEY'S STRANGE TATTOO

Pop princess Britney Spears is having a dilemma about a tattoo she had etched on her hip.

The newly brunette babe has a tattoo of a Japanese symbol which she believes to mean "Mysterious" -- but it turns out the mark actually says "Strange."

"Crossroads" co-star Taryn Manning explains, "I was getting changed recently in Japan and women laughed when they saw my tattoo. She told me it means strange, which is not cool.

"Britney had it done at the same time as me. She was absolutely devastated when I told her."

What kind of incompetent tattoo parlour were these twits at?

Oh, big whoop. As though the average person who sees it is going to be like "Hey, that japanese symbol represents 'Strange'!"

Nobody cares. And lord knows she has the money to have it taken off if she so desired.

I always say, if you're going to get a tattoo done in a foreign alphabet, make sure the tattooist is fluent in the language you've chosen.

David Beckham has the same problem. He has his wife Victoria's name tattooed on one of his lower arms in some ancient Indian Sanscrit. Authorities of the language later informed him her name had been badly misspelled.

If it's any consolation to Britney, I think "Strange" could have quite cool connotations.

Hey, could've been worse. I read about a British guy who wanted to get something cool and badass tattooed in chinese alphabet on his arm, and the guy at the parlour cracked a practical joke at him and tattooed something like "Jackass For Life" or some other insult on his arm, and he only realized when he asked the chinese waiters of his favorite Chinese restaurant why they were laughing each time they saw him. :)

This is why if I get tattoed, I'm sticking with images, not foreign words. Unless its foreign words I know.

In total agreement.... having a tattoo with strange on it isn't a big deal exspecially when you have the money to remove it shes such a baby. I would find it as a unique tattoo and tell the story of what happened to my friends and family.

Who cares? Why is this devastating? The word 'strange' doesn't always mean Mr. Bean...it could be like the Donnie Darko quote

Gretchen: You're weird
Donnie: I'm sorry
Gretchen:...that was a compliment.

I feel Britney's pain.

I thought Donde es Bajo? meant Bad Motherfucker. Now I get snickers whenever I take my shirt off at the Mexican swiming park near my house.
