Eww! N.E.R.D. frontman Pharrell Williams is having SKIN GROWN to cover up his unwanted tattoos. Something is just not right about that. Can’t they grow ears on rats now to give people ear transplants? My grasp of current science is obviously startling.
Pharrell, who just played a show at the Harvey Nichols store in London to promote his new clothing line, has the skin cloning people on speed dial.
“It’s basically like getting a skin graft, but you’re not taking skin
from your ass or your legs. These guys actually grow the skin for you,”
he explains. “First you have to give them a sample of your skin, which
they then replicate. Once that’s been done, they sew it on – and it’s
seamless.”
First off, how big a sample? Are we talking a swatch or will like a piece of cuticle suffice? Secondly, UGH?

I read somewhere else that he said he wants to look more like an adult.
Why not take off the baseball hat, sunglasses (at night), sponge bob t-shirt, sweatshirt and jeans? How about wearing some MAN clothes!

Hehehee, true Kel. I mean if that’s the reason he’s covering up his tats. But seriously though, ew. Get em lasered off like everyone else. Although personaly I like the way he looks now, tats, childish clothing and all.

yeah.. because nothing says “Imma grownup” like no tats and a Sponge Bob shirt.

I think it’s a brilliant idea. Certainly sounds better than painful laser treatments. I just don’t get why he’d remove them in the first place? Dude seems a little off these days. Hope he’s not into anything that will land him in rehab.
