La Ink: La Ink Star Says She’s “not an Amazing Tattoo Artist“

The TLC reality television series LA Ink, a spin-off of its predecessor series Miami Ink, has managed to grant its cast of tattoo experts a certain degree of popularity. However, resident shop manager Pixie Acia is averse to the idea of making any grand claim to that fame. She says that while being on the show has made her more easily recognizable, she doesn’t consider it an accurate measure of how well-known she is. During an interview, the 26-year-old veteran of the Body Art industry recalled how the people around her kept asking her about the effects of fame, just from being on the show.

Acia said that she considered it amusing because she did not view it as being about real fame. She claimed that people didn’t recognize her because she had, in her own words, any amazing talent. Acia further went on to say that she was not an amazing tattoo artist, nor an actress of note, and that she never really aspired towards the performing arts in that respect. She also said that it felt somewhat unusual for her, and it gave her the sensation of being lost somewhere in the middle. On the other hand, the shop manager acknowledged that her prominent fellow co-worker Kat Von D had become quite well-known and successful herself.

However, Acia contended that Kat Von D did not achieve her fame simply from appearing on television in LA Ink and Miami Ink, but because she’d managed to distinguish herself in an industry traditionally dominated by their male counterparts. Acia further continued to downplay her own personal role, and said she was easily replaceable. She made the clear distinction between fame gained from being exceptionally talented, and fame gained simply from being seen on a TV show. One thing that Acia misses from life before the series, however, is her job at a diner called Swingers.
