A few weeks ago the daring entertainer showed off her inked body by posting a picture of herself via her Twitter account @Tontolet. The ‘freaky’ tattoo which runs across the entire upper back region of her body immediately generated heated comments on social media sites and dozens of blogs.
While most of the comments question the motive and taste of the controversial tattoo, some feel she has every right to ink any part of her body as she pleases.
‘You see that tattoo, I’m not saying she shouldn’t get it, but dis is unladylike, it’s ugly and trashy. Dirty!!!’ one comment read while another says ‘You don’t need to judge her like that. She owns her actions and the body belongs to her. So she is very free to do whatever she wants. Nice tattoo anyway.’
Tonto who says she has 57 stars and letters each on her body has now spoken out in an interview with Golden Icon. ‘If you say you don’t love my tattoos, it’s my body. At the end of the day, it’s my body’ she said.
‘I am so loving my body right now, I think I’m just addicted to the pain of a tattoos so I just keep having more and more’, she added. She also says she will be getting more tattoos.

She look horrible
You must know that you are a woman and should act responsibly #toto+d##k
tonto u ar 2 gbaski
tonto u are not d owner of your body. Your body is d temple of God. Y must u defile it? Lev 19:28.
the babe don say na her body,hmmm make we live am oh, when her eyes clear she go know say she needs help..
pls lets leave her alone,because she already knows that her body will one day return to the dust,she just own it for the main time,but the question we should ask her is that,were will she spend the rest of her life,after all the rubbish she is doing to the temple of GOD,claiming she owns her body.
Tola i totally support you.u knw sometimes we do certain things to this temple of the living God believing it belongs to us.in fact that ink on her body scares the living day light out of me cos it looks like dat of a bewitched woman.
Don’t give a rat a##…!!!
Tonto be assured that not only the Biblical saying of your body being the Temple of God,but This is unlikely in the Igbo race,Where did you learn all these from?Please,consider your tradition and act accordingly..my advice to you as a younger one…Arrange your self,be more responsible to enjoy your Bright future…Thanks
This is bizzare, weird and outrageous, gosh. Doesn’t she think of her roles as an actress?I hate her guts, she’s a menace.
This is Devilish and if I may ask, which secret society do you belong because this is not just or matter of likeness
The tattoo is disgusting… S**t. Can’t look at that crap again. Those are meant for men not ladies.
On her back o and every body’s complaining, may be when she adds another on her *s*, it could make every one hush and gaga!!!!!!
she has gone mad and totally confused, amy winehouse started like this, she graduated from foul words 2 smoking, nao ths, it z step by step 2 destruction, let us leave her alone, witout pple like her, hw do we learn lessons, Tonto!!!!, u r a blessing, continue on ur part of destruction, ride on gurl!!!!
Dis is disgusting.
Dis is disgusting and it unladylike, the way she even reply to comment show she is ready 4 hell. any way sha my advice to u is that your body is the temple of the holy spirit and u are going to give account of how u use is
Tonto dikeh i like ur person but i hate ur tatoo.
Haba,fellow Nigerian what offense has she committed na,cos of tattoo,even some of u writing rubbish here and there do worse things than ordinary tattoo,so let her be u idiots and hypocrites
u are such a bigggggggg fool; drop ur comment and leave dont come preaching to ppl here. u are d hypocrites mind ur biz and dont tell anyone what u think dey shuold say.not everybody is a fool or reason like one. if u ve sister like tonto u will encourage her to go on right? she is suppose to b a role model to young ones, what is she teaching?, to pierce der body? nonsense: she should understand that now she is a public figure and she is suppose to be d bible ppl read: i am dissapointed in her:
miss tonto i like u personally ok u are nt d first to av a tattoo jst b a gud gurl sha
she is not serious. a young upcoming artist like her should portray a sense of decency. i pity her future. She has not achieve anytin and she is doing like dis. God help her. She is stupid for putting that kind of tattoo
@Tonto or what did you call yourself, you need to re- think. From my own view you want fame and attraction, and i do hope you are getting it now ? You better think twice. Ah ! Hell is real ooh.
(Hell is real)where in the Bible or in any of christ`s teachings did you pick this from?.Tattoo
leads to hell.The level absurdity some people display is alarming.
Tatoos aint bad bt she shd learn to answer politely and make her fans undastand rather than been arrogant. Even 2face is humble amd we luv him. Tontoh mek u humble oh. Ur fans r ur greatest assets.
i love you as a person but i don’t see anything that is bad in it cos most of the people commenting about her are doing what is bad than having a tattoo on your back, just learn how not to confuse your fan with your word
I suggest she stop tatooing her young body at this point, as there will definitely be a price to pay as she gets older.The fact is that her skin will wrinkle so badly and those tatoos will look so ugly that her sight will look repulsive. So dear miss Tonto think of what tomorrow will bring. Good luck.
she is a disgrace to womanhood
That’s true, it’s her body. She want to design it her own way and I don’t see any reason why it should disturb anybody. That’s her style and choice. No body has the right to criticize her. I respect her courage and style. Just go ahead and do your own style and see if people will not comment on it. There’s nothing you do that people will not say good or bad of you. Tonto Cheers and more grease to your elbow. I love your style, keep it up. You’re a lovely person…
Tonto one day u will look back and regret every of ur actions. my dad will call it youthful exuberance but I call it madness at its peak. The Bible says thou shall not make a mark(tattoo) on the body. i pray dat the power of the most high will one day envelope and overpower u then all this will be vanity to u.
life is more beaultiful,when we love more n criticise less. tonto fans and faithfuls pray for her now cos thats wat love does. lets refuse the devils will over her life to work. intercede.. intercede…intercede…
People can criticize! Because of a tattoo people are raising hell! It still baffles me how some still think in this 21st century. Leave this girl alone PLZ.
I have read all d comments.lol(THE PEPOLE) wetin reach this one? what has she done to deserve all this? if she wanted ur advice she would have asked. do u know the pain that comes with fame? wetin be una bussiness wey una dey take panadol for another person headache or do u think she’s a kid? she likes it and she has done it so stop criticizing the poor girl, one man’s food is another’s poison.let her be,keep ur opinion to urself if u don’t want to see the tattoo then don’t look. simple (it’s her body not ur temple abi GOD show u vision about her? (THE PEPOLE))
Nigerians are facing monumental problems in all facets of life.people are dieing on daily basis from the death traps we call roads, no electricity, no water, corruption is endemic,the so called men of God are amasing massive wealth in the name of tithing and seed sowing.And here we are, castigating Tonto for tattooing,which have been an integral part of african culture for several centuries, while idolising the very people that left nigeria in coma.
No one tells a mute person that war has begun and also u do not learn a left-handedness during ur old age. When the time comes, no one will tell u that war has begun and by the time u wants to stop all these outrageous things u are doing now, it will be too late for u to rectify them. Then, u will not learn a left-handedness during ur old age. I will not tell u to stop, after all, u hav made it clear to everybody that “is ur body, at the end of the day is ur body” why then are we just killing ourselves over a matter that does not concern us?. Plz, get addicted more and more. Besides, they are all good to ur likening.
Leave ur life gurl, I love u be good.

The life we live is based on the product of our choices. She has made her choice. Pls let her be. We all we give account of all our choices.

Upon all dis preaching & bible quotes,nigeria is moving backwards everyday.Y r u guyz reacting horribly ova a MERE tattoo. Ask ur grandmothers if they didn’t have tattoo on there arms! Stupid wretched pple. Dirty girls judgin. Mtchew
Hi SB,
Just need to let you know that you are so matured and intelligent. The way some people still reason in this age and time sometimes beats my imagination. Nigerians are so religious and that has done them no good because majority lead fake lives. Most of those criticizing Tonto here are worse than she is. And who says having a tattoo is a sin? Always quoting bible verses at the slightest opportunity………guys, get a life! Rubbish!
u say is rubbished……..u’re the type that will advice your kids to do whatever pleases them, cos u wouldn’t want them to get angry……is so unfortunate u don’t read ur bible please check the page of the bible
Leviticus 19:28 and stop disgracing urself,.
It is even a sin to criticize someone else. What of tribal marks on d faces of people. She wanted a tattoo she got one, fuck y’all. Remove d peck log in ur eyes b’4 removing d peck in someone else’s.
am nt really a big fun of tattoos bt hey Africa, judgment is exclusively in the hands of the creator. So plz dont insult her but if u want to advise why not. Stardom comes with it own temptations. if u really a believa jx pray 4 her. ya hearrrrrrd.
Tonto,i am not here to judge you or to condemn you cos the bible says that we should not judge,but what i have to tell you is that you should look at what people is writing about you,pleas think very well about it,if people like you will feel this way how about GOD?let me agree with you that the body is yours but somebody owns you and that is GOD,yes no one is perfect even me that is writing this i am not perfect but we are trying,please think about it.GOD bless you.
