Truth behind TikTok star after viral 'tan lines tattoo trend' sparks outrage

Ana Stanskovsky said she wanted to be 'tanned all year round'

A TikTok star has got people up in arms following a video where she appears to get tan lines tattooed on her - but there might be more to it than meets the eye.

In a video from January this year, influencer Ana Stanskovsky appears to get tan lines tattooed in a rather controversial move. The video caption claimed she wanted to appear ‘tanned all year around’ and people certainly had opinions about this.

Ana’s video was initially shared on her TikTok page, but it has since spread to other social media sites, with some questioning whether this is or will become a new tattoo trend.

In a follow-up, she insisted the tat would stay 'as bold as it is now', going on to claim: "You'll see next summer there's going to be everyone walking around with them because it's such a good idea.

"Sometimes you have to be the first one to do it and then the crowd will follow."

While some people have remarked that an adult can get any tattoo that they want, others have argued it is ultimately a stupid idea.

One Twitter user said: “People are free to do what they want with their own bodies. Personally... I think it's nuts.”

Another said: “Just when you thought people had found rock bottom, a new standard is discovered.”

A third added: “What on Earth? Why? Why? Why? No this should not be a trend.

“I’m sorry you’re feeling unsatisfied about your tan, but this goes too far.”

However, some have remained skeptical of the whole thing, arguing that its simply a stunt and tattoo aficionados have said there are clues it's not real.

If this wasn't enough to get you skeptical about the tan line video, it is important to note that in her most recent videos on TikTok, she doesn't appear to have that same tat.

And while Ana hasn’t officially come out and insisted it was a stunt, she has done similar 'fake tattoos' in the past.

The influencer sparked massive arguments online after revealing that she was getting her boyfriend's name, Kevin, tattooed on her forehead back in 2023.

Similar to her 'tan lines tattoo' idea she received quite a lot of push back.

At the time, one user said: “Ok ok this is to the young people that want to do some dumb tattoos without thinking about.”

Another said: “If they break up she’s going to have to get kevin the minion tattood on her face to cover it up.”

With a third chiming in: “Kevin better pack his bags and runnnnnnn.”

Well it surely wasn’t real, right? Yup, it wasn’t. In a follow-up video, she explained why she did the stunt and the somewhat thoughtful messaging behind it.

In the video, Ana rubbed off the Kevin ‘tattoo’ on her forehead and said she did it to help convince young people or those considering getting ink that they could eventually regret the decision.

She remarked that she regrets some of the real tattoos she has and didn’t heed the advice of friends and family who warned her that she could regret it in the future.

Having already sent the internet into meltdown over one fake tattoo in the past, it is conceivable it's something she'd try and do again.
