Tetanus be damned!
Glam-gal songstress Ke$ha gave one of her adoring fans a dollar sign tattoo with a needle and ballpoint pen.
βAre we in heaven right now? Ke$ha heaven?β the super fan asked as the star drew the symbol on his ankle, then stabbed his flesh. The inky encounter was captured in a YouTube video.
Ke$ha warned the fan that it might hurt, but he was quick to impress his beloved singer with his nerves of steel.
βIβm tough as nails, just go for it,β he said as he lounged on a black leather couch, dressed in torn jeans and hoop earrings. βThis is fun. I feel like Iβm in prison.β
The grungy pop-star famous for her single βTik Tok,β has long had a fascination with inking and getting inked.
In a MySpace video she posted in February 2009, she announced: βAnyone who gets my face or name tattooed on their body, Iβll make it the cover of my record.β

That never happened, though she did tell Details magazine that when the record came out, she got a tattoo of her own.
"That night we got a little crazy, and we thought it was a really good idea to give each other tattoos to symbolize such a special event in my life,β she said. βMy friend tattooed 'YEAH!' on my foot."
The star says she has five tattoos.
