Description

On her first tattoo; an anchor on her rightfoot with her mom's initials: "The first tattoo I ever got was on my foot. It's an anchor, and it has my mom's initials in it, and she has the same one. We got them together. I was really young to have a tattoo, but my mom is covered in them. She's got a full sleeve. She has her tongue pierced. She's super, super cool, really beautiful, and always had tattoos when I was growing up. So I think looking up to her, I always saw it as an artistic thing. My mom's really artistic and just really, really badass. So I begged her, and begged her, and begged her to let me get a tattoo, and she took me to get one as almost like a fear tactic. She was like 'Yeah, let's go get anchors on our feet.' And what I didn't know is the foot is one of the most painful spots you can get a tattoo. So she took me to get a tattoo on my foot hoping that it would deter me from getting more because of how bad it would hurt, and it totally backfired on her. It just absolutely backfired. I was like 'This is great! I want to get more!' I think she just thought it [the anchor] was a cute symbolic thing. You know how moms are. My mom was like 'We anchor each other.' I was like 'That's beautiful, Mom. Just let me get a tattoo. I don't care what it is. I just want to be cool.'" Source
