‘Wayment ‘: Fans Slam ‘Black Ink Crew’ Star Ceaser for ‘Crooked’ Tattoo Done on ‘Little Women: Atlanta’ Star Ms. Juicy Baby

Little Women: Atlanta” star Ms. Juicy Baby recently celebrated her birthday by gifting herself with a unique ink job. 

On Wednesday, Jan. 6, the reality star took to her Instagram page to show off her newest tattoo she received from the ink boss himself, Ceaser Emanuel from the VH1 reality show, “Black Ink Crew: New York.”

The body art, which featured the word Dallas, a star in the letter D, and a silhouette of buildings in the background, was in honor of the reality star’s 49 birthday. Ms. Juicy captioned the post, “#BirthdayInk It’s all done y’all!!!” She added, “The finished product@ceaserblackink #msjuicybaby 💜💜💜 Now I need a _______.”

The 49-year-old was seemingly excited about her new tattoo. The post garnered over a little under 10,000 likes. However, fans of the radio show host weren’t impressed. Folks in the comments section quickly began critiquing every aspect of the tattoo, including one user who wrote, “The letters aren’t even and the star is messed up.” They added, “Oh no.” Another person wrote, “Wayment 🤣 he need to stop playing. Hopefully it was free.” A third person wrote, “That l and A should have connected. It’s a space and it’s uneven.”

Other people were severely upset with Ceaser and found it hard to believe that he was behind what they deemed to be a crappy job. “Wow…i like ceas but this is not appealing,” another critic expressed. “The word is crooked and line work sucks. Im just being honest but happy birthday💋.”

A fifth critic said, “Glad u like it. 👌🏾.” They added, “Tattoo is awful i’ve been getting tattoo since 96 I know crap work. I hope Cease didn’t charge u. Look at the exodus he did on DMX scratch work he should be embarrassed.”

Another thing about the tattoo that seemed to have fans confused was that Ms. Juicy calls herself the “Queen of Atlanta,” but the reality star got a Dallas tattoo despite seemingly having no ties to the city. The reality star was born and raised in Corsicana, Texas, before moving to Atlanta, Georgia. One person questioned, “But why dallas if youre the queen of atlanta ?”

This also isn’t Ms. Juicy’s first time working with Ceaser. Back in 2017, the Harlem native did a series of butterflies on her left thigh down to her feet. So one could only assume Ms. Juicy liked what she received enough to come for a second round. Neither Ms. Juicy nor Ceaser has commented on the ink job.

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
