Canadian Model Tattoos YouTube Buzzwords On His Face

Canadian model Vin Los wants to be "the most famous man on Earth." And one step on his path? Getting dozens of freehand-scrawled face tattoos of various pop culture buzzwords.

"Fame" is inked across his forehead. "Iconic face" adorns his left cheek, while "Scream my name" is written on his right. "Guilty" rests nearly between his eyes, with "Sex Bomb" tattooed across his collar bones. Not to mention dozens of others.

Two questions come to mind right off the bat. Why the tats? Also, how does he choose them?


According to a fascinating interview Vin Los did with Vice Magazine
, he gets the tattoos because he wants to gain fame by creating "a myth, a mystery."

"I want to be an image for people to look at, something that has an impact," said the 24-year-old model.

As for how he chooses the words?

"I'll go on YouTube and listen to all the big hits and I'll just take words from these songs. For example, "Top of the World" is from the song by The Cataracs, but it's also what I want. I want to rule the world."

Check out the video for a look at Vin Los, his array of tats, and his message to the world.
