Dev’s Tattoos
Tweet
Singer Devin Star Tailes, know by her stage name Dev, has a prominent diamond tattoo on her left shoulder, and seems to be working towards a full sleeve on her left arm.
Dev has a pink diamond tattooed on the front of her left shoulder
On the top of her left shoulder, Dev has an outline of a rose in black ink.
Right beneath it, Dev has another rose which has been filled in with red ink. She later filled the leaves in with green. (It is pictured here freshly done and wrapped in plastic wrap)
On the back of her left bicep, Dev has what she describes as “my unfinished naked bird girl.”
On Dev’s inner bicep, she has the lyrics “We used to talk like lovers,” which comes from The Cateracs’ song “Undercover”
On the inside of her elbow is an unfilled daisy.
Around her elbow are the words “Esta Loca,” which is Spanish for “she’s crazy” or “it’s crazy” (feminine form). Dev is of Mexican and Portuguese descent and honors her heritage with tattoos in both Spanish and and Portuguese for her two grandmothers. “It says ‘Esta Loca’, because my crazy Mexican grandmother used to say that to me,” Dev says.
Matching the “Esta Loca” tattoo is Dev’s “Menina Bonita” tattoo for her other grandmother. She says that these two are her favorite tattoos. Dev explains: “It says ‘Menina Bonita’ which means ‘beautiful girl’ in Portuguese because my Portuguese grandma used to always say that to me.”
Dev and her mom got “and what” tattooed on their wrists together. “It says ‘and what’ in case anyone tries to run their mouth, and then we flash our tattoos and go ‘and what!’,” Dev says.
Dev has a pair of swallow tattoos on the sides of her lower back.
In April 2012, Dev got a pair of tattoos which are her fist tattoos on her legs. On her left thigh she tattooed “James” for her fiancé James “Jimmy” Gorecki, who is a professional skateboarder. Dev and Jimmy have a daughter Emilia Lovely Gorecki who was born in December 2011.
Dev tattooed the letters “RLSM” on the side of her right knee. Supposedly these are the initials of her family members.
Dev is best known for singing the chorus of Far East Movement’s hit single “Like A G6.” She has also appeared on “Backseat” by New Boyz, “Top of the World” by The Cataracs, and “A1″ by Bobby Brackins. She has released a few singles of her own including “Fireball,” “Booty Bounce,” “Bass Down Low,” “In the Dark,” and “Naked.” Her debut album The Night the Sun Came Up is out now.

Very, very generic and trashy-like tattoos – especially the diamond and rose tattoo. I’m sure it must be holding special meaning (and it would be worse if they didn’t!) but it’s in the “uh-oh tattoos” list. The “And What” tattoo is witty, I like that one. I also like the unfinished nude bird-girl!

Honestly, I agree with Zoey. For a sleeve, It’s alright, but individually the only one I like is the “naked bird girl” one.

I’m also going to have to agree with Zoey. Genius or not, the only tattoo worth mentioning there is the ‘naked bird girl’ one. The Diamond on her shoulder is err, childish and is probably by far the one lacking creativity most. The sleeve is alright, I’m hoping it’s unfinished though because as it is now, kind of suffocates the rose and makes it less appealing to others.
On another note, I’d just like to point out that obviously people need to calm down with the fan rage. Zoey was only voicing her opinion, calm down ladies lol.

Not my style, but if it works for her, that’s great. I’m not the type to judge.

Coming from someone whose heavily tattooed i can definitely say shes drop dead beautiful but her roses are not quality work the bird girl is killer work. the rest is generic flash tattoo but shes a bombshell and could have garbage on her and id still cutoff a finger for her : )

i like the sleeve cuz its not “to much” to the point you cant even tell if her arm was ever the same color as the other. and maybe she didnt want the rose to be perfect maybe shes trying to mak a point with it. she is as beautiful as anyone else and if theses tattos make her feel more beautiful than great LET HER FEEL BEAUTIFUL! i dont under stand why people always got to judge the appearnces. its childish and high-school stuff. If you don’t like it ok. keep it to youself u have the right to have an opinion but that does NOT mean you have to share it with the whole world. serisly.

I have finally heard the song the “Women” in my life growing up have been trying to reach me with, music has finally shown me her secrets and taught me how to use it to give my love back to Lady Luck
Heres a poem for all of my “Girls’, thank you for your secrets
…….
********************************************************
Music, my love, my passion, my calling,
thanks for your roses, will you be my wife?—
My deviant sips on the syrup of life,
she picks up her boys, wherevers theres falling…
She whispers her secrets til now and from youth,
until you find a whiff of her knowledge, and find the real truth..
So karma, mother nature, my inspiration, my wife
Youve shown me my mind, and opened my eyes,
I love all my mothers, my sisters, my “wives”
Let me taste your mind and you taste mine
Life? Music? Babe?
I Love You Bitch, Let Me Use Your Inks to Tattoo your Magic Art And Beauty,

I LOVE her sleeve, I don’t see why others don’t. It’s sort of edgy but elegant.
