Buenos Aires, November 22 (NA) -- Emanuel Noir was one of the guests on Mario Pergolini's show, where he surprised the host by revealing that he got his first tattoo at the age of 11. Pergolini wanted to know how his father had reacted to seeing him tattooed at such a young age. Emanuel was honest and answered with humor: "My old man wasn't... he wasn't there." Amid laughter, Pergolini asked if he wasn't afraid that, if he continued like that, everything would end up being a big black spot, like his last name. "The first one... I think I was 11 years old," Emanuel recalled. He said it was a childish prank because with his friends from the neighborhood they tattooed each other with the same machine. "I used to stick them on my back and in other places, and over time I was able to turn them into real tattoos," he recounted. Emanuel also said that to make a good impression with his first "serious" tattoo, he chose the typical thing: he got his mom's name on his shoulders. He added that he came from a family with few economic resources, so he would make money by selling copper to help at home. Although sometimes with the little money he saved, he would go to the kiosk in front of his school to buy temporary water-transfer tattoos, that's where his fascination with tattoos began. "I already had that taste from then on," he said. According to what was learned by the Argentine News Agency, the singer from Ke Personajes has several tattoos superimposed on different parts of his body. "He was never there," Emanuel said. "So there was no one to get angry at." He even commented that his last name, Noir, means "black" in French.
