Woman tattoos Web address on forehead (pic)




SALT LAKE CITY, Utah (AP) -- For $10,000, Kari Smith has gone ahead and had her forehead tattooed with the Web address of a gambling site.

Smith, 30, who sold her unusual advertising space on eBay, said the money will give her 11-year-old son a private education, which she believes he needs after falling behind in school.

"For the all the sacrifices everyone makes, this is a very small one," she said. "It's a small sacrifice to build a better future for my son," she said.

"To everyone else, it seems like a stupid thing to do. To me, $10,000 is like $1 million. I only live once, and I'm doing it for my son," she said.

Tattoo artist Don Brouse said he and his staff spent nearly seven hours Wednesday trying to talk Smith out of putting "GOLDENPALACE.COM" above her face. When he did go through with it, he kept the inch-tall letters close to her hairline, where bangs or a hat could provide some cover.

Smith's eBay auction attracted more than 27,000 hits and 1,000 watchers.

Bidding reached $999.99 before Goldenpalace.com, an Internet gambling company in the Mohawk Territory of Kahnawake, Canada, met Smith's $10,000 asking price.

Well I can count by hand how many old and famous doctors in Brazil make 10k a month, but if I were her, living in America, I wouldn't make it for less than 100k. Not that I would make it in myself anyway.

That's just sad as some1 already said.

That's just it... she wasn't... 10k for a lifetime of advertising... What a deal for GoldenPalace.com ... but then you gotta look at it this way... she wasn't much to look at in the first place, so now people will have a bona fide reason to stare at her.

Falling behind? Falling behind as in being held back? And a tatoo on some ugly broad's forehead for $10,000 is supposed to make it all go away and cure the son's stupidity?

I wish her all the best in life. Imagine trying to get a date or going for a job interview with that.

Anyways...on a sidenote, I wonder if Charlie Manson will claim money from white extremist groups because of his tatoo.

Just stupid...

I am a tattoo freak, I love them, I have them but this person went to far. Sad and Pathetic.

On a positive note Her son will have a great subject when show and tell comes up in school.

"Look at my mum, she's a freak..."

I disagree. Making yourself look like an advertising panel is no way to show dedication to your kids.

Of course, if she said "I'm doing this for booze and smokes", she would look like even more of a douchebag. But because she says "I'm doing this for my son", some people will be more understanding.

I have a relative going to a private school and $10,000 gets him in there for one year and one year alone. What the hell will she get tatooed when that kid is up for yet another year of school? What about college?

I'd be a lot more understanding to a woman who would prostitute herself to pay for her son's education. At least it's a better wage.

Goldenpalace just exploited a very uneducated person living in poverty. Of course, it was her choice to be exploited, I won't argue that, but the fact remains that she is woefully ignorant and probably unable to raise herself out of ignorance because she isn't very bright to begin with. She seems a little on the slow side from that video interview.. I wouldn't say retarded, but slow. I personally don't feel it's right to exploit the willing when they show a diminished mental capacity like she does. but whatever.

And she doesn't get that whole 10 grand, let's not forget. she's got to pay the IRS out of that. She gets about $7000 after IRS if she has to pay the SE taxes.
