Cee Lo Green considered having his whole face tattooed.
The 37-year-old singer has quite a few tattoos on different places of his body. He was very close to going extreme and and for a while he contemplated the full face tattoo in order to make a "statement". He certainly would have! A loud personnality with a complete face tattoo is quite a statement.
He said: "There was a time when I wanted to get my entire face done, just get something wild.
"I saw a guy recently and he had all sold black from the brown, down the middle of the nose, around the eyes and to the sides - it looked like a Roman fighting helmet. It was so awesome.
"That is a commitment and it's a way to say I can truly take the pain. I mean, I got it, he's not a guy you want to get into a fistfight with. It's quite a statement."
Cee lo is now trying to cut down on his tattoo and keep it under control. He once felt that he was addicted to the tattoos and always wanted more.
Cee Lo insists not all of his tattoos were painful - but he abandoned a piece of artwork on his back because he felt out of control.
He even started a large tattoo on his back but he gave up before it was finished and still needs to go back and get it done!
