Michael Joseph ‘Prince’ Jackson Jr, the eldest son of the late King of Pop Michael Jackson has seemingly committed the biggest tattoo blunder of all time.
While there is nothing wrong with getting an ink on his body, Prince decided to have a poem tattooed on his chest.
But the problem with the poem is that it was riddled with grammatical inconsistencies and a spelling error. And since it was already permanently inked on his chest, the inconsistencies and error will be there for the rest of his life, reports News CDN.
The 19-year-old debuted the questionable body art on his Instagram last week, showing off an armor design containing parts of a famous poem by Dylan Thomas entitled, “Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night.” However, his new tattoo reads, “Do not go gentle in that good night.”
The line “Rage, rage against the dying of the light” was also tattooed underneath, though the word “against” appeared to be misspelled.
It was kind of surprising for Prince Jackson to allow the inconsistencies and error to happen considering that he is now in college and certainly knows his grammar and spelling, note some critics.
However, some fans are saying that it is possible to have a tattoo removed nowadays so it would be just a question of when Prince would find the time again to have the poem tattoo on his chest either removed or corrected.
According to Jackson, the giant piece, which is located on his shoulder, bicep and parts of his chest, was done at Timeless Tattoo parlor in Hollywood.
Also featuring a giant dragon’s head, the half-sleeve took more than 12 hours, spaced out over the course of two days, to complete.
Though Jackson documented the process on his Instagram, no one pointed out the mistakes during that time, reports Celeb Buzz.
The first child of the King of Pop
Born on February 13, 1997, in Los Angeles, California, Michael Joseph Jackson Jr., also known as Prince, is the first child of pop superstar Michael Jackson.
His biological mother is Debbie Rowe, the former wife of Michael Jackson. Rowe signed over custody of Michael Joseph and his biological sister, Paris Michael Katherine, after Rowe and Michael Jackson divorced in 1999. Prince graduated from the Buckley School in 2015.
Prince’s father, Michael Jackson, suffered cardiac arrest at his home in Los Angeles on June 25, 2009. He died shortly thereafter, at the age of 50.
Following his father’s death, Prince who was only 12 years old at the time, came under the legal guardianship of his grandmother, Katherine Jackson. Katherine became the legal guardian of Prince Jackson’s other siblings, Paris Michael Katherine and Prince Michael “Blanket” Jackson, as well.
Staying out of the spotlight
Prince and his siblings largely stayed out of the public spotlight, appearing publicly only a few times since Michael Jackson’s death.
However, Prince, Paris, and Blanket did speak to their father’s fans in 2009, during his funeral service. They also spoke at the Grammy Awards in January 2010, accepting a posthumous Lifetime Achievement Award for their father.
In February 2010, an official coroner’s report on Michael Jackson’s cause of death was released, revealing that the singer had died from acute propofol intoxication.
Aided by his personal physician, Dr. Conrad Murray, Michael had used the drug and others to help him sleep at night. After a police investigation revealed that Dr. Murray was not licensed to prescribe most controlled drugs in California, his actions while caring for Michael Jackson were further scrutinized.
Michael’s death was ruled a homicide, of which Murray was found guilty on November 7, 2011, receiving a four-year prison sentence.
Believing that A.E.G. Live, the entertainment company that promoted Michael Jackson’s planned comeback series, “This Is It,” in 2009, and failed to effectively protect the singer while he was under Murray’s care, the Jackson family decided to take legal action against the company.
