Rio, a city that stays in body like tattoo
Lady gaga drew attention to a craze that grows along with the popularity of Rio: eternalize in the skin the "carioca (person that born in Rio de Janeiro" way to be.
That Rio inspires many demonstrations of pride everyone knows, but, for a while now, started to grow up a class that not only wears shirt with the city, they takes this passion for behind the clothes, printing the carioca enthusiasm in the skin. A month ago, it was the turn of Lady Gaga, who tattooed the word Rio, with a cross in place of the letter "i" next to the neck. In the wave, Tara Savelo, makeup artist and friend of the American singer, also took itself a reminder of the tour: a tattoo with the name of the city and a drawing of Christ the Redeemer.
Daniel Tucci, one of the best known professionals in the field and author of "souvenir" that Gaga took here, is another who has Rio in the skin. Last year, when I was in Norway, Tucci, who prefers indirect references more than the omnipresent Christ Redeemer, recorded in himself the Rio de Janeiro's telephone code "021".
- Lady Gaga explained that her idea had come from a napkin scrawled by a fan, but no longer had the role. She only asked that the style was the tattoo chain, crudest, said she doesn't like it when it's all pretty, prissy. Her friend wanted to "Rio" written in the style Miami, with color and silhouette of Christ, more Barbie - reminds Tucci.
