It was at the age of 18 that Mr. Pokora made his first tattoos. A theme he developed when he came to the studios of RTL with Bruno Guillon. “In fact, I was a fan of Allen Iverson, one of the first tattooed basketball players, and AJ McLean, of the Backstreet Boys, who was completely tattooed. So, I wanted to have my arms full of tattoos as soon as possible. to do like my idols, he told the host before telling an anecdote. “I wasn’t even thinking. I was going to the tattoo artist, I was seeing drawings on the wall, I was like, ‘Ah, I want to do this.’ Uninspired”. “Tattoos”, that he qualified “horrible”. “Already the M, it’s a first bullshit! Why? Put the first letter of my first name, but what horror!”, he continued.
“The M, for example, is because I had a dancer friend who was a graffiti artist. One day, we are at home in my apartment, he has a piece of paper, we talk and at the same time he makes an M like that to pass the time. I tell him: ‘Go ahead, you know what, I like it too much, let’s go to the tattoo artist downstairs, he’s going to do it for me.’ And I have a graffiti-like M”.
Christina Milian’s darling wanted full arms“as soon as possible”. Results ? His left arm is “a disaster, I hate it!”
During his passage through As an asidethe one who won the NRJ Music Awards for the French-speaking song of the year managed to remove some of them. “I had some in the neck that I had removed with a laser. There is still a small flower but I had roses, flames that were rising. I removed some, it hurts very, very badly, it’s very sore.”
