We’ve already seen a fairly dodgy tattoo this week, but we think this one has to take the prize…
Even we were chained to the chair, we’d find a way to stop this one happening.
A James Arthur fan has unveiled a tattoo of his face on her thigh.
The German primary school teacher from Bergen was called “craxy” by her friends after spending four hours under the needle.
Ines Koch told The Sun it means a lot to her and her life:
“Some of my mates think I'm crazy for doing this, but I don't care because it means a lot to me and my life.
"James gave me the strength to start believing in myself again. This tattoo will always remind me to believe in myself and to never lose my strength no matter what I have to go through."
So, Ines is a fan then?
"He has shown every person in the world, that no matter where you are coming from and no matter what you've been going through, it's always important to never stop believing in yourself and to never lose faith in achieving what you have always dreamed of."
Koch also added that she intends to follow in his musical footsteps and apply to The X Factor in 2013.
"I'm a musician myself and all of my mates have always told me that I have to do something with my voice. I never had the strength to move forward with it and to start believing in my own dream.
"Then in December I thought to myself, 'Well, if he could get through all this, why can't I?’
"So, I applied for the X Factor 2013. Now I'm just waiting to get my dates and the venue for my audition. I don't know how far I will get there but at least I'm trying to follow my dream.
"He has inspired me so much and I will always be grateful for that. My support will never ever end and I hope I might get the chance to meet him one day."
Well, maybe you might Ines…
James Arthur’s face though?!
