Dog tattoo on the back. Ksenia Sobchak boasted a tattoo on her chest

We found people who stuffed the faces of Alexei Navalny, Okhkhymiron and Alexander Kerzhakov on their bodies, and discussed with them how they decided to take this step, what others think about their tattoos and how their characters reacted to this display of fan love.

Vitaly Bespalov, 26 years old, journalist

As a teenager, I saw photos of different models and freaks with cool tattoos on the Internet. I liked one of them, on whose body there were many different portraits. I was impressed by the very idea of ​​placing images of people I like on my body. He began to implement this much later - at the age of 22, he stuffed Salvador Dali on the ribs. Well, off we go - then there was Marilyn Manson on the left hand. Then I thought that it would be more interesting to fill not only world-famous personalities, but also those with whom I will associate the time of my youth, when I look at my tattoos in my old age.

So on my leg, next to the inscription “CENSORED” and a nun in a gas mask, Lesha Navalny appeared - I am not his devoted supporter, but he is a hero of his time and fits well into the general concept.

Just during the session, while the master was stuffing Navalny, I thought that for gender equality, it was urgent to add women to my body. My master Ilya Spirin proposed to build a whole sleeve of them. I really liked the idea.

The first decided to fill Ksyusha Sobchak. And somewhere a month before there was information about her possible participation in the presidential race. Why Ksyusha? She is cool! A rare combination of high intelligence, erudition and recklessness, a good sense of humor and courage. I work as a journalist, and Sobchak inspires me to not be afraid to ask uncomfortable questions, to voice not the most popular opinions. At the same time, she is “crazy” in the good sense of the word, which also appeals to me.

I don't know what my attitude towards her will be in the future. If suddenly, after March 18, Sobchak joins United Russia and starts broadcasting on Pervy about the greatness of the president, it will be insulting and annoying. But even then, her image will remain on me as a memory of what she was and what will forever remain in my heart. But this is unlikely to happen - I believe in Ksenia Anatolyevna.

Photos of my tattoo with Sobchak actively walked on Facebook and Telegram with captions like “What the hell, he went crazy.” She appealed to everyone's indignation.

On Rossiya-1, in one disgusting program, they showed a fragment of an NBC story about me - there I told my Western colleagues about the work of the famous. Apparently, in order to translate the topic, the Russian presenters began to show photos of my tattoos in order to arouse public outrage. Sobchak. It looked absolutely idiotic.

Ksenia herself is hardly aware of the tattoo. A friend of Sobchak and an employee of her headquarters, Anton Krasovsky, liked this photo in my profile, but, apparently, did not want to distract Ksenia from business. There was no reaction. But it doesn’t matter: I didn’t set such a goal - the main thing is that I like the tattoo.

My acquaintances have long been accustomed to my tricks and were not surprised either by Navalny or Sobchak. They seem to like my tattoos too (or they are too tactful to stop me).

I'm not going to stop. Next to Sobchak there is already Renata Litvinova. Soon there will be Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, Zemfira and one of those famous modern Russian women whom I love and respect. The main thing is that the master is on the same wavelength with you - then there will be an understanding of what you want. Yes, and the sessions will be something very pleasant.

Dmitry Chetverg, 27 years old, deputy director of a perfume shop

In 2008, when I was graduating from military school, I really wanted freedom: not only in my studies, but also in life. Then I discovered the track "I'm a hater" by some Russian emigrant. I liked the audacity of the text and its unusual presentation. I realized that I heard this song many times, but did not pay attention. I started listening, and it so happened that his music went with me to the army and the university.

Oksimiron for me is not so much an artist as a poet. I think that he can safely be put on a par with Yesenin and Mayakovsky. His work is a reflection of our time. Thus the idea of ​​a tattoo was born. And yes, it was the right occasion.

My friend suggested that I do a "festival work", without thinking twice, I agreed and sent her three photos of Miron. She won the competition, and then posted a photo of the work on Twitter, Oxy saw it, published it and praised the master.

Of course, some people don't understand my obsession with celebrity tattoos. At first, I faced a considerable wave of criticism and condemnation from the “sofa troops” and just youngsters who would hardly have said anything to my face. Why, if I stuffed Tupac, Tsoi or Cord, would this be the norm, but if Miron, then not? You can immediately expect a wave of dirt and stupid arguments from the "fans of Purulent" and other people who consider it their duty to speak out and criticize. I can't understand it. However, I listen more to my friends and family. They like performance, quality. It's beautiful.

I have a little dream - to collect as many autographs of my favorite bands and artists as possible under my tattoos. Myron's autograph became the first in the collection. Soon I will fill myself with another face: it will be Ice Cube - one of the founders of hip-hop.

Daria Kutyreva, 18 years old, tattoo artist

Why Shnurov? Everything is simple here. I am a fan of the Leningrad group. I know all the songs by heart. Since I work in the tattoo industry, I thought: “Why not fill yourself with a Cord?”

For me, he is a role model. I respect his philosophical views. Through music, he makes fun of our people and state. Reveals the evils of society. It's fun and cool! And most importantly, it's true! And now it is very much appreciated.

I have 9 tattoos and I haven't regretted a single one yet. I am sure that he will not bother me and will not dislike him - I am proud of this work. She probably won't be the last. Further more.

I really wanted him to see her, pay attention. I planned to send it to him as soon as I finished it. And it happened! Said he liked it. Joy knew no bounds. We don't know each other personally, but I want to fix this for sure. In the spring I will go to St. Petersburg to his wife in the Ko-Ko-Ko restaurant.

People around me like my tattoo, "Leningrad" is now at the peak of popularity. Older people, of course, do not understand and condemn, but this is normal. Generational difference: we seem strange to them, and they seem to us.

If you also want to stuff something like this, you need to understand that this is a laborious job. Therefore, the master must be reliable. It's easier for me - I trust my colleagues completely.

Andrey Avramenko, 33 years old, sales assistant

I am a fan of Zenit and tattoo art and for a long time I wanted to fill myself with one of the famous players of the club, but I just couldn’t decide. But here. This helped me decide. Alexander did a lot for Zenit and St. Petersburg, he always gave all his strength to win and never lied, never betrayed his colors and fans. He is a real legend.

I have tattoos that I did in my youth and I'm not entirely happy with them, but this is a completely different case. I approached the choice with all responsibility and accuracy. As far as I understood, Sasha liked it, he marked me on his Instagram. And in general, the majority, of course, appreciated. Unfortunately, the photo does not appreciate the beauty of the tattoo. You still can’t shoot it completely - the place is like that. In fact, a lot of people saw the tattoo after Yura Dud published it. They even started to know. I went to barbecue with friends, there were other guys from Moscow. They, noticing the tattoos, immediately asked if I was with Dudya. It amused me.

His music was with me at important moments, so now it doesn't matter if my taste changes - it's more like a memory of a certain period. I posted the tattoo on my Instagram and tagged it, I hope he saw it.

What my friends think does not interest me, the main thing is that my husband and I like it. I am going to do a lot of tattoos, the main thing is that there is enough space. Next I'll hit Sirius, a character from Harry Potter.

Tattoos on the body today are unlikely to surprise anyone. But tattoos depicting people always attract the eye: there is a desire to take a closer look at who is stuffed there and find out why this particular person? Admit it, and sometimes you wanted to do so. Therefore, we have already done it for you. The journalist of the site talked with Tyumen residents who wear portraits of celebrities on their bodies and found out why they stuffed their photos, what it means to them and how others react to it.

Winnie the Pooh, Salvador Dali, Marilyn Manson, Alexei Navalny, Nadezhda Tolokonnikova and Ksenia Sobchak

Vitaly got his first tattoo at the age of 21. Now his body is decorated with several portraits of famous personalities. The last of them - with the image of Ksenia Sobchak.

Ksyusha does not itch the first day and has almost completely healed. In my opinion, this is the best of my tattoos, - Vitaly signed a fresh photo with a smile.

It may seem strange, but I have never been an ardent fan of any celebrity, I have not hung posters of my favorite rock bands. It’s just that at the age of 16, I saw one American male fashion model in a photograph on the Internet, who had many portrait tattoos on his body: Kurt Cobain, Audrey Hepburn and others. I really liked the idea of ​​placing the faces of others on the body. But I started trying with a simple one - I stuffed the Soviet Winnie the Pooh in the image of the GreenPeace emblem. It was such a reaction to what was happening then in 2012 in society - the ban on rallies, the harassment of atheists, the age limit for cartoons. I thought that cartoons have become like endangered animals.

About a year and a half later, a portrait of Salvador Dali appeared on my ribs. He inspires me as a person - brave, reckless and talented. By the way, this was the most unpleasant of all the procedures - stabbing on the ribs is very painful.

Later, I decided to realize my main dream - on the day of my 25th birthday, I stuffed the great and terrible Marilyn Manson on my left hand. At that time, I was a fan of his work for exactly 10 years.

Later I realized that stabbing just famous artists and musicians is not very interesting. I decided to capture on myself the one with whom, perhaps, I will later associate 2012-2017 in Russia - Alexei Navalny. I like him in general, but I'm not his ardent supporter. At the same time, I really think that he has become a certain symbol of our time, a symbol of those who do not agree with President Putin and his associates.

My last tattoo is a portrait of Ksenia Sobchak. It's funny that I decided to fill it even before all this hype with the nomination to the elections. Just because I love her courage, determination and charisma. Although, of course, I will also vote for her.

Sobchak will not be the last - I want to place other no less courageous and talented young ladies nearby on my arm: Renata Litvinova, Zemfira, Valeria Gai Germanik, fix the tattoo with Nadezhda Tolokonnikova (Vitaly wants to make it colored).

This is all in the near future. Most of my friends support me, they are often interested in what else I pricked myself or want to prick. Probably, many would consider all this horror, but such people, as a rule, do not find themselves in my circle of friends. There were cases when just passers-by noticed the same tattoo with Manson and said “Oh, very cool!”.

Portrait of Gogol on a shoulder blade

Elizaveta Kashina, 21 years old:

The idea to fill a portrait of Gogol came by itself, since childhood I loved his works and re-read them to this day. Friends and strangers reacted differently. Someone still thinks that this is some kind of stupidity, someone responds positively. I think that now the portraits of famous people on the body can no longer surprise anyone, because there is an experience of such tattoos, from Pushkin to Ksenia Sobchak and Marilyn Manson. Sometimes passers-by or people standing behind me in line do not react very adequately. Some, making assumptions, asked: is this Peter the Great? Lermontov? Hmayak Hakobyan? When they ask if it's Lermontov, I don't know how to react at all. Is it really possible to confuse, because they are absolutely not similar.

I got a tattoo when I was 15 years old, at the session I was with the master along with my sister, who signed up to be in charge. Relatives have always supported me in this, and acquaintances reacted differently. Some liked it, someone said that this was too responsible a step, because suddenly I would no longer like this writer.

Wears Putin on the forearm

The well-known Tyumen presenter Yevgeny Dekaba wears a portrait of Putin on his forearm. The tattoo was done by the man as part of the tests of the morning show on the radio.

Most of the listeners voted for the presenter to fill himself with a portrait of Vladimir Vladimirovich. Eugene didn't mind. He admitted that he was impressed by the behavior of the current president of the country: his self-confidence and calmness. The only problem was which portrait of Putin to choose: angry and with a fist, wearing glasses or sunglasses in nature. In the end, the choice fell on the latter option.

Tattoo with Anton Shipulin

When Irina Nikolaeva had the idea to get a tattoo with biathlon symbols, there were no questions about who would appear on her body. She has been friends with the family of Olympic champion Anton Shipulin for ten years. Therefore, it is not surprising that his portrait appeared on the back of the girl.

The idea of ​​creating a tattoo appeared in the summer of 2015. Oddly enough, at that moment I was visiting Anya Maslova, the twin sister of Anton Shipulin. It didn’t work right away to get a tattoo, as it took a long time to decide on a sketch and color with my tattoo artist. We chose one of Anton's photos as a basis, where he shoots from a standing position. Since August 4, 2015, Shipulin has always been with me. The reaction to the tattoo was different: someone was shocked, surprised, asked why and why, whether it hurt or not (of course, it hurt - it took 5.5 hours to do it). They asked questions, for how long, suddenly get bored, well, I heard enough criticism in my address and read a lot, of course. My wardrobe has also changed. The choice was made in the direction of clothes with an open back. But now I very rarely open my back, because they recognize me in supermarkets, shops, on the street. There are many fans in Tyumen, and almost everyone knows me. I can't even hide abroad. There are enough biathlon fans everywhere: they come up to the beach and ask.

Foreign biathletes also know that I am a “bearer” of a tattoo, but not only for this reason, of course. I am a special correspondent for a site about biathlon, I work with athletes, I take interviews, - the girl said.

Paired tattoos of the girl were made in August this year.

Tattoo with Salvador Dali

Tyumen people love the outrageous artist Salvador Dali. How else to explain the fact that several people with his image live in the city. One of them is 26-year-old Badri Bliadze.

The idea of ​​creating this tattoo was born quite spontaneously. I have admired the work of Salvador since childhood. For me, this man was a unique psycho, whose genius struck to the very heart. Friends reacted well, mother - too.

I did it four years ago, I was 22 at the time. Now the reaction is still positive, everyone likes the execution of the idea. Well, plus everything, seeing a portrait of Dali on me, people understand why I seem strange to many.

Who else?

Portraits with famous characters are not uncommon among Tyumen tattoo lovers.

But, for example, the main pirate of cinema is Johnny Depp.

Do you have tattoos? What do they show? Write your answers in the comments!

By the way, we have started a channel in Telegram, where we publish the most interesting news from the life of Tyumen. If you want to be one of the first to read these materials, then subscribe: t.me/news_72ru.

The TV presenter and young mother surprised fans with a pattern on her body.

Ksenia Sobchak, after long trips to different countries, returned to work again. First, the star became the host of the Muz-TV award, after which her figure was discussed on the network (recall, fans suspect that Sobchak is expecting a second child), and then Ksenia went to Sochi, where Kinotavr is currently taking place. On the trip, the TV presenter is accompanied by her husband Maxim Vitorgan, so the subscribers are again concerned about the question of who little Plato stayed with.

But with her appearance at the premiere of the film "Hostages" (dir. Rezo Gigineishvili), Sobchak gave her fans a new reason for discussion. Fans noticed that a tattoo was visible in the neckline of the outfit, writes. Did Ksenia decide to decorate her body with an indelible pattern? It seems that tattoos, and even in such a place, are not in the style of Sobchak. Although, perhaps the Russian celebrity decided to take a cue from Rihanna, who got a huge tattoo under her breasts?!

Everything turned out to be much more prosaic. The drawing on Sobchak's body is just a temporary tattoo. With a pattern on the body, the TV presenter decided to complement her Japanese-style outfit. For the publication, Sobchak chose a multi-colored kimono and black sandals with a shiny decor.
