Way Better Than Scarlett Johansson-Bashing Scribbles|
Lindsay Lohan dedicated some pretty vicious graffiti to Scarlett Johansson. Apparently LiLo scrawled “Scarlett is a bloody c**t” inside a bathroom stall on a night out with Kate Moss two years ago, and Scarlett is still talking about it. Not very innovative, was she? If I were going to sink to the lows of vandalism, my art would be much more creative than simple Scarlett Johansson bashing; it would be much more artistic, and not offensive at all, and inspired by something in the slideshow below. In all honesty, I think I’d probably stick to light graffiti. Via: trendhunter |
