Tattoo artist Mario Barth tells the new Us Weekly -- on stands Friday -- why Jenner decided not to get inked. "She loved the design," he said. "But she was saying, 'I don't feel 100 percent. Can I wait?' She made the right call."

The tattoo was the words vous tees belles, French for "you are beautiful," and Jenner wanted them on the back of her neck.
Kim Kardashian will certainly be pleased by her little sister's last minute decision to hold off on a tattoo. She tells Us that even though Bruce and Kris Jenner signed a consent form, "Bruce will be so happy!"

"I'm not a fan of tattoos," Kardashian, 31, adds. "Especially at a young age when you change your mind so much."

23thank GOD she did'nt get it ,because ur more beatiful with out it lol!!!!!!!
thank GOD you did'nt get it because ur more beatiful with out it u go girl!!!!!!!
It is illegal for minors under the age of 18 to get a tattoo in California, EVEN WITH PARENTAL CONSENT. I'm guessing the whole episode was staged. No responsible tattoo artist would agree to do it illegally on tv.
Way to go Ashley, Fatime and Amy. First thing I picked up on as well. Maybe that's what she wanted though? Now THAT would have been entertaining.
good thing she didn't get it.. it would have been wrong hahaha.. its vous etes belles
It's actually 'Vous êtes belle"
"The tattoo was the words vous tees belles, French for "you are beautiful," and Jenner wanted them on the back of her neck." It's vous etes belles -- tees is a typo.
Chelsea Coyle Are you retarded??? She's still a stupid teenager. What parent would sign a consent for their teen to get a tattoo on the back of her neck???? For the rest of her life, she would look CLASSLESS every time she wore her hair up. Do you think she'd THANK her parents for signing that consent form when she looks like the trashiest thing ever by the time she's 30 years old?
seriously people, it's a freaking tattoo. do you know how many kids have tattoos? because they signed a form to let their daughter get a tattoo on her birthday they're bad parents? some of you just want reasons to hate them. kendall didn't even get it, so calm down. even if she did, who are you to say it's wrong? you aren't her parents and it's not like she's 7. get over it.
AND SHE DIDN'T EVEN GET IT. so calm down. what kendall or her parents do shouldn't affect your lives so move on.
guys it's a tattoo... do you know how many kids have tattoos? it's not that big of a deal. honestly... because they let their daughter get a tattoo on her birthday they're bad parents? some of you guys are idiots.
Hahaha....she is not old enough legally to consent to one...another publicity stunt by the clan..is Kim diverting the negative attention from her 72daymarriage?
No wonder this family is so messed up. Those kids are being raised by wolves. Kris Jenner tries to be a "cool" Mom and "fit in" with her teenage daughters. And Bruce Jenner is an old woman - incapable of "growing a pair."
Who is parenting this child?? Bruce and Kris signed a consent form??? These kids would be better off raised by wolves. Sign the no more kardashian petition!
she's 16 and shows more maturity than the rest of them -- i'm not 100% sure, so i'll wait. Write that down Kim! Learn something!
Please quit reporting on this Family and they may go away. America has had enough
First off, IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, it is not legal to get a tattoo at the age of 16 regardless is your parents signed a consent form. Any shop that would tattoo her at that age makes you wonder what else they would do.
First, it notes that her parents signed a consent form, and it's more popular than you think for minors to get tattooed at the consent of their parents. Secondly, there are numerous models and actresses that have tattoos--it's very common for makeup artists for models to have makeup heavy enough to cover them. It doesn't void her contract or make her any less desirable as a model.
Um, yeah. Like your marriage, Kim?!?!?
WHAT THE HECK IS WRONG WITH THEM! SHE IS 16 YEARS OLD! WHAT MOTHER IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD ALLOW THEIR 16 YEAR OLD TO GET A TATTOO? OH WAIT KRIS JENNER IS NOT IN HER RIGHT MIND! DOESN'T THIS GIRL HAVE A MODELING CONTRACT? HOW CAN SHE GET A TATTOO IF SHE HAS A MULTIMILLION CONTRACT? THAT WOULD BE MARKING UP HER BODY!
