05: Tattoogate

Would you spend over $1000 on a rough sketch of a tattoo design? No? Well unfortunately, someone did. Come take a seat at the weird kids lunch table where this week we are talking about the May 2023 drama of tattoogate. Courtney Monteith thought she was getting her dream design when she messaged tattoo artist Lindsay Joseph, but what ensued was more of a nightmare. After several back and forth emails and nothing more than a sketch that didn’t even match the concept she wanted, Courtney walked away from the consultation without getting the piece and she was still out a few thousand dollars. This drama took tiktok by storm, and we were definitely caught in the downpour.
