Gucci Mane Adds Ice Cream Tattoo to His Face

By Maggie Coughlan Posted Jan 13th 2011 10:33AM

Gucci Mane seems set on giving 2011 a frigid start, and it has nothing to do with the weather or the ice around his neck.

The rapper joined the ranks of fellow wordsmiths Lil' Wayne and Game on Wednesday when he added a face tattoo to his collection of ink.

The 'Lemonade' rapper visited Tenth Street Tattoo near Atlanta, Ga, where tattoo artist Shane Willoughby added a three-scoop ice cream cone to Mane's right cheek. In case you're not familiar with the temperature of ice cream, the word "Brr" sits at the top of the waffle cone, and two red lightning bolts run through the tattoo.

Jason Murray, an employee at a nearby piercing shop, captured Gucci Mane's newest addition and posted it on Twitter, captioning the photo "GUCCI!!!"

The tattoo is a bold move for Mane, who was recently committed into a mental health treatment facility. The rapper's mental condition was evaluated after filing a "Special Plea of Mental Incompetency" in a Georgia courtroom early this year, claiming that he was unable to "intelligently participate in [his] probation revocation hearing."

Despite his troubles, Mane is said to be working on his fourth studio album, 'The State vs. Radric Davis 2: The Verdict,' which is scheduled for release later this year.

I'm an African American and I agree. Tattoo's look bad on "People of Color," especially, darker skinned people. Plus, we are susceptible to keloids. Entertainers and Athletes have really gotten out of hand with the Tattoo's. Tyson Beckford has basically ruined his Modeling career because of these his unsightly tattoos. Subconsciously, I think these people are trying to erase something about themselves.

You need to watch what you say and what is a colored person your just a ignorant person yourself.

By richard nicoletti

No James, I notice it too. It looks like dirt. White men with tats all over their armks look like lizards; and women who do it are just play stupid. Nothing looks worse. Identity crisis, anyone?

They do it cause they want to, they don't care if it shows up or not.

I have an "Ice Scream" sign that came from a Kilwin's ice cream shop if he wants to buy it. He can put a gold chain on it and hang it around his neck. I thought about hanging it in my house somewhere, and then I thought "why would I do that". I couldn't figure out exactly what statement an "Ice Cream" sign would make. I mean, I like icecream but I really don't eat it that often. Well gotta go, I'm getting a grilled cheese tatooed on my forehead today; maybe some chili fries on my cheek.

TOO funny !!!!

Worst tattoo I've seen in a long while - especially for a rapper. When I first read the headline I was under the impression it was going to be small but wow. He better hope he doesn't go to jail any time soon because they'll make that ice cream into an ice cream sundae and add some nuts and sauce on top.

By nycbunny

Really it's sad, I mean to each his own but this guy obviously has some psychological issues. An ice cream cone, really? I feel kinda sorry for him...

Wow What a sick puppy this weirdo is...Mental Health Therapy is needed indeed!!!

WHAT A FOOL! CAN WE SAY ISN'T HE A LITTLE OLD TO TRY AND GET NEGATIVE ATTENTION? MOMA MUST REALLY LOVE HER BABY. IS THAT THE FACE SHE GAVE BIRTH TO?

I love tattoos I have one but I think some athletes, musicians and celebrities are taking it to the extreme. It makes him look pretty stupid just like Mike Tyson with his on his face. If they had to go to work in the real world the would have trouble finding a job. Most employers do not want tats on their employees that represent them. So when you have them on your neck, face, hands it makes it harder to get a job unless you like working in a fast food joint. Hope he keeps money handy to get it removed laser is expensive and time consuming.

And nobody told him this was a bad idea? I get a new Possey.

I could see this tattoo on a woman. But a guy.....lmao .
