Ewwwwww. Gross.
Filed under: Wacky, Tacky & True > Pharrell
Pharrell Williams revealed to British Vogue that he's using a revolutionary procedure to rid himself of his tattoos.
Tats just don't 'go' with the grown up image he'd like to project.
But, forget the painful laser procedure that could scar!
He's going to have replicated skin cover his tats.
The N.E.R.D. front man said, "It's basically like getting a skin graft, but you're not taking skin from your ass or your legs. These guys actually grow the skin for you. First you have to give them a sample of your skin, which they then replicate. Once that's been done, they sew it on - and it's seamless."
It's expensive…but that's irrelevant says Pharrell.
Isn't it nice to have $$ to throw round?
"It's going to be pricey, but worth it," he says. "I got fire on my arms! I'm a grown man!"
We're sooo glad we never jumped on to the tattoo bandwagon!




1st!
Whatever, who cares! The guys rock.
FIRST bitches. and ill always luv pharrell. always.
FIRST SECON THIRD WHO THE FUCK CARES!
I have " Tommys Lil' Devil" tattoed on my left butt cheek - real small - under a cute lil cartoon devil and I married Eric a year ago in May. Learn from my mistake ladies…. any removal will be alot more painful then getting the tattoo. My one & only tattoo…. huge mistake….. HUGE ….
Oh and Tommy is in jail…. the bad boy italian drug dealer connected guy wil be there till 2025 ~~~~~~~~~
AWWW he's growing up!
These colored of ours always look so happy, don't they?
Maybe they'd like it better back in Africa eating bugs and dying from their AIDS.
Re: T – You asshole, for real! Ass!
R.E.T.A.R.D.E.D. Shouldn't have gotten tats in the first place clown!
That's awesome!
OMG THAT IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO EWWWWYYYYYYYYYYYYY
ewww thats disgusting
Idiot! Thats why you dont get stupid shit. i have six and i love them.
first. i love nerd!!
Just a bit repulsive.
Re: true – hahahaha…why u hatin?
The fewer tattoos in the world, the better. He can do whatever he wants. OTOH, I hope that dog is photoshopped and not really dyed red. Even if it's not poisonous, why the fuck do we have to dye animals??
to hal the hosford. I PERSONALLY WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT IS IT THAT YOU DO FOR A LIVING? DURING MY DOWN TIME AT HILTON CORP. I NORMALLY LOOK ON HERE FOR A GOOD LAUGH AND IM CONSTANTLY SEEING YOUR DUMB ASS CRACKER COMMENTS. I DONT BELIEVE YOU HAVE A JOB- JUST ANOTHER PIECE OF POOR WHITE TRASH - YOUR PROBABLY A WAITER AT A CHINESE RESTURANT
thats too bad because his tats were SOOO hot!!
they made him look that much more finer.
whatever, he will still look sexy as fuck without him.
that dog is not dyed. that is P-H-O-T-O-S-H-O-P or something. probably akin to this weird technology found on the paris video here :
minimovie.com
creepy, but awesome.
oh yeah i've heard about that. this will be the laser of the future for sure! think about all the flaws on the skin people want to fix
If you think you might ever get to a point where you don't like your tattoos…THEN DON'T GET THEM IN THE FIRST PLACE!!! Nothing more annoying than people who get their tattoos lasered off (or covered with skin). Cover that shit up with a better tattoo, but removing your tattoos is cheap and douchebag-y.
He should take his money and invest in a shirt. Several of them. No one wants to see his sad little chest.
Yeah, I never understood the 65 million tattoo thing either. One or two maybe, but there is no need to cover you entire body with them.
see what madonna does to people? RUN GUY, RUN!
"Grown men" have been getting and keeping tattoos for many many years…A man doesn't become a "grown man" because his skin is kept virginal…a man becomes "grown" because of the sum total of his life experiences, not because he did or didn't get tattoos…
Of course you didn't jump on the 'tattoo bandwagon' Perez… Wouldn't want anything to interefere with that unrelentant unsexiness.
Good choice, Perez.
Tats have become so mainstream and boring. When every dork in the universe has one, they are hardly "alternative" or subversive.
That said, there are some gorgeous works of ink art out there, and some really original stuff. But what kind of "cool statement" are you making when pretty much everyone else is making the same statement?
If you're gonna get one, make sure it's something really cool and original or at least make sure you're loaded like Pharrell so you can get it removed "painlessly."
My cousin had a small heart tattoo between her thumb and index finger. She's been applying compound w to it periodically and now it's almost gone.
COOL!
TECHNOLOGY ROCKS
that's not gross perez!
Hal R Hosfeld, Are you the same guy who's girlfriend left him for a black man and now you hate all black people? You should really sick some help for your "condition."
Not everyone who has tattoos does it to be "alternative". Some people appreciate the amazing ability tattoo artists have with 14 needles. Every decade it seems that people have something new to complain about. Why not just let people decide to do to themselves what ever they choose? So many people waste energy concerned with what everyone else has. Be happy with yourself and enjoy the sunshine.
hahah SOMETHNG ANGIE SHOULD THINK ABOUT!!
HER KIDS WILL BE EMBARESSED OF HER WHEN SHE IS 50
Hal R Hosfeld you are an idiot and a sad pathetic person.
WTF had Pharrell been smoking??!! His tats give him his own personal image. He should have thought of that shit years ago. That shit is going to the extreme. He thinks he's in a real life sci-fi film, calm it down negro.
That's got to be the most unhealthy thing I've ever heard. Wonder where we get cancer? Shit can't get out of your skin that accumulates in your body. Cover it up with another set of skin and see how quickly he starts to look jaundiced.
The sooner we stop being obsessed with looking clean and actually BEING CLEAN…well…we'll live in a different world. It's the same thing as eating like shit while wearing stinky anti-antiperspirant. If your diet rocks, you don't need anti-antiperspirant. What's anti-antiperspirant do? It keeps the chemicals in your lymph glands that need to come out. Your skin is your biggest excretory organ…cover it up with another set of skin - no matter how well they line it up - I'll bet you the shit gets ugly quick. Gross.
And all of you who are just itching to make a 'dirty hippie' joke, I'm no dirty hippie - and you're obsessed with synthetic smells to cover up how gross you really are. Smoke cigarettes, drink, eat fast food and then buy the shit corporate America tells you to so you'll smell like the crack of a magazine's ass. Talk about a mind meld.
I've been a fan of your website since the very beginning. Even before theinsider.com called you the most hated website in Hollywood. Your website used the be the first with every big and small gossip story. Nowadays you're late with even the small stories not to mention the big ones. This story has been on every website and you're late…. Get your act together man!
Tattoos are okay if you are truly ugly. But if you are good looking most of the time it is a defacement and a shame.
Tattoos is Rock!
Leave the tats!
Ummm… tattoos are ZEXY.
get your facts right mister
isn't he just covering them up to get other ones?
x
aww thats sad, pharell is SUPER sexy and those tats just make everything even better
I likey that doggie. Great pics P!
ITS C00L THAT HE'S ALL GROWN UP AND SHYT, BUT JUST DA THOUGHT OF THE PROCEDURE IS SO EWWW!
thank god! he looked so much better with out that shit.
NERD?? Bunch of losers wannabe cool, pfff
guy's a fucking moron
i hate you, you are nasty, why would you make fun of n.e.r.d peice of nasty fat shit
Tattoos are so over. People who got them were so stupid. All they say is that you are trying too hard to create a personality where none exists…and the "personality" that you have created is that of a piece of trash. Good luck to all your poor fucks trying to get them off!
I wanted a tatoo sooooo bad when I was in college, but my parents said they would stop paying for school if I got one. I am so grateful that, thanks to them, I don't sport the ever-so-popular, late 90's tramp stamp! Thanks mom and dad!!!!!!
I'm not into tattoos, but i love Pharell and my advice would be to just wear long-sleeved dress shirts and change his look all together. Forget all that tattoo removal work.
WoW. Good tattoo story. I think as far as plastic surgery money goes… Well Spent.
Now THIS is a procedure that is going to make a TON of money once this tattoo fad is over.
There is NOTHING i want on my body permenently. Tats are dumb.
Too bad They can't grow Him a brain!
What is this procedure and how can I get it?
I honestly can't believe some of these ignorant comments. For one, yes tattoos go in and out of style like every other trend, but regardless tattoos have existed (as far as we now so far) for 4000 years (ex.: the ice man found in italy). Honestly we all descend from the people who have inhabited the world for millions of years, what the fuck do you think they all looked like? They had stretched ears (and other places), and many tattoos. Getting a tattoo for some is to jump on the bandwagon, to make a statement, or yes create a personality like some of you said. But in the end besides all that bullshit, a tattoo is and should be completely personal and no ones fucking business, regardless of having one or '65 million'. Personally I have 6 large tattoos and plan to get more because I think they're beautiful. I think those who said some pretty ignorant things about them (including you perez) should jump out of your ignorant little boxes and just LET PEOPLE BE PEOPLE. You more than anyone should know about wrongful and unfair judgement Perez. Remember the whole Emo thing in mexico you were condemning and talking about how awful it was? How they should be left alone and wear what they want? Practice what you preach Perez.
Angelina Jolie should have done the same; hers that got lasered is still visible and looks cheap and shitty.
I think people should just take more time to consider what they're getting, people get stupid tattoos because they get them before thinking about it! Tattoos for many people represent their stories and things they've learned in life, those are the really amazing ones. Don't hate on the people who really take the time to get a beautiful peice of art because you've seen the people who really didn't think in the first place and got a shitty tattoo. Fucking biased people, all of you.
someone made that up. this procedure does not exist.
Really, all you need to do is think about it before you get it. I personally don't think that people who take tattoos seriously are "young" or "immature", I think that they show being comfortable in one's skin. I have one tattoo, on my foot, and I waited to get it for four years (one and a half after I was legal to) and it means the world to me. It's something I will never regret getting because I thought about it for such a long time and made sure that it marked a time in my life to look back on. I plan on getting more to commemorate differ things that happen in my life and I'm not going to be ashamed of it. (Probably because I won't be picking something off of a wall.) Maybe he should have thought about it harder…or maybe he needs to realize that it's not on your arms or legs that makes you a man, it's in your character and how you treat the people around you.
So, people need to think when they're getting tattoos rather than getting their lovers name because "like we're so in love". If you get something tasteful in a area that is easily covered, it's not bad. And instead of getting someone's name or initials, get an object that you like that reminds you of that person. That way, after it's over, you can say you got that nautical star, butterfly, skull, what-the-fuck-ever because you like them.
I'm soooooo glad Perez didn't jump on the tattoo bandwagon but he sure tipped the scales on the ugly, fat and gross bandwagon!! What a fucking pig.
EWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!! GET A FUCKIN LIFE PHARRELL.
We wonder why you refer to yourself as if you were more than one person. We think it's odd.
Sounds scary and expensive but if he doesn't want them anymore good on him for doing it.
Absoltely ridiculous.
Ewww so Silence of the Lambs~ PRECIOUS
That red dog scares me. Really creepy
there are so many actually serious skin diseases out there. and a lot of research going into if not to cure then alleviate them. I doubt this douches tattoo is first in their mind when "regenerating skin". That is offensive
Doesn't make any difference what he does. He is black. Can you say KELOIDS? I would stick with the tats and pancake makeup.
hey that's my dog
nooo his tats made him even finer than he already is :[ but w.eee he'll always be fine :]
this just shows that pharrell was never down…and i can say that cuz im from the same neighborhood hes from…it just shows hes a poser…cmon now…tattoos u should be proud of to me they symbolize a time in ur life…hes wack if he does this…i never wanna c him throw up va ever again!!!u suck pharrell!!!
It's a shame there is no such thing (yet) as a vocal chord transplant or a brain transplant. That would really make all of his skin grafts worth while.
Perez is just happy he didn't jump on the tattoo bandwagon cuz he would have picked twinkies, Ho Ho's, and bacon tats. All of his favorite things.
Re: Jane Doe – Number 54, and I hadn't even read your post, yet. Most excellent observation.
Could somebody take him to a Nordstrom's or a Neiman Marcus and complete the EXTERNAL make-over…???
He has tatts??? I guess I was too busy drooling over the rest of his body…. he is welcome to come to my house and play grown up anytime!
Tattoos are trashy and ghetto and permanent. I'm doubtful this proceedure will work.
what do i need to do to lick these guys' buttholes?
obviously this guy is fiercely retarded because a skin graft IS WHEN THEY TAKE A LITTLE PIECE OF SKIN AND LET IT GROW.
tattoos are culture. tattoos from the pacific…. a lot of special meanings. tattoos are sexy-if they mean something, and are unique and well made. most tattooers are artists. tattoos are not trash (some are), mostly its art. and everyone should think twice before getting some. why get it if you're gonna cover it up? i have 10 and love all of them, never regret anything!
i think there is a right way to have tattoos and a definate wrong way….he is not an accountant for god sake….i have 3 and every one is a moment in my life i will never forget.
Perez your a fat ass it would cost way too much $$$ for your lard ass to get ink
thats why you dye those 4 strands of hair you have like rainbow brite .
God FOR A FAT ASS YOU HAVE A BOBBLE HEAD HOW DOES THAT WORK i thought u needed to be thin
Your so fuckin ugly and sooo lame .dont loose any more weight cause your head is fucking huge
Re: anon – AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Laser is not painful…celebs get their stretchmarks/freckles/etc lasered off all the time.SO?
of course it's a good thing you never got tattoos perez, because with all that continuous and uncontrolled weight gain of yours , they would be all stretched and fucked up… fat ugly disgusting stupid heinous pig
whatever perez…i've had some of my tats nearly 10 years and i fucking love em. sounds like pharrell is the one jumping on a bandwagon, a medical one at that. If he was really comfortable with himself he would have grown to love his tats as part of him. (that is, unless they are affiliated with gang activity, which i don't think they are). I never jumped on any bandwagon…i appreciate the beauty of the human form and adorning it in both permanant (tats) and impermanant (fashion, jewelry) art. I have my tats in all the places that are so beautiful about my yoga body….arms, legs, etc….
i don't think anyone read the comment i made….. anyways, i will repeat it.
this replicated skin procedure does NOT exist.
someone made that up.
good thing you never jumped on that bandwagon fatty because tattoos stretch with weight gain.
all insults aside, let's be honest. perez is fat and most tattoos are beautiful.
hey… my comment disappeared.
the replicated skin procedure does NOT exist.
it's not real.
Um, this sounds really familiar: It puts the lotion in the basket! It puts the lotion on it's skin or it gets the hose again!
Pharrell is making himself a skin-suit, wonderful!
•
pharrell williams needs to get a skin graft over his entire ugly little face
•
he looks like a turtle that was born without it's shell
•
and would somebody please sew his stupid mouth shut
•
all that ever come out of it is bullshit
•
oh but his tattoos are so hot!!!
Wtf? He is trying to promote a grown up image?
Is he aware that his clothing brand features cartoon characters and ridiculous colors? It doesn't really scream "grown up". If anything, his tattoos make him look more grown considering his (extremely handsome) baby face makes him look about twelve, pair that with his purple all over print Ice Cream hoodie and we're at about 10 years old.
Plus, this just sounds gross.
It's only a "bandwagon" if you do it to fit in. If you really think about what you get and it means something to you, you'll never regret getting them.
why does he have clifford of the cover of his album?
NOOO!!!! Tattoos are sexxxxyy!!!
that's a pretty bangin' way to get rid of tattoos.
but… what's the point of even getting them if you're just going to remove them? maybe before you go to get a tattoo you should put down the happy juice and actually choose something that's relevant to you and will be for the rest of your life.
tattoos can be beautiful pieces of art. i'm sure pharell has some amazing ones! don't hate on tattoos!
Kids…that's why you get something PERMANENTLY inked on your skin that has a profound meaning to your life's purpose instead of a tribal tatoo around your upper arm, or….fire. And inking isn't a "bandwagon". It's been done for hundreds of years and will be done even after farrell shittin williams get's his covered up with a goddamn glorified skin graph.
