Some big time drama recently surrounding Kat Von D and Ami James. Apparently, Ami received the photo above recently. Kat was notified not long afterwards, and in addition to this short video that was on TMZ, he gave a lengthy explanation on her myspace page. Here are a couple quotes.
For quite some time, on my personal website, I had a section for “Autograph Requests”. At any time, ANYONE could go on there, type in their name and mailing address, and my assistant and I would send you an 8×10 photograph of me signed, free of charge.
Honestly, we started getting an average about 2,000 per day, and couldn’t keep up, so we took that option down. Now, when people send us gifts to the shop, fan art, or write us from jail, we send out an autographed 8×10, usually personalized as a gesture of thanks and appreciation. Anyone, could get their hands on one of these 8×10s.
Unfortunately, one of these 8×10’s got in the hands of an evil, insecure, and spiteful person, who thought it would be a good idea to FORGE this kind of trash.
For those of you that HAVE received signed 8×10’s from me in the past, you can CLEARLY see that this is a slanderous case of FORGERY, FRAUD, and attempt at getting attention.
I think she is telling the truth, but even so, she cannot resist taking a shot at Ami anyway…..
I worked at Miami Ink for quite some time, before friction began between Ami (the owner) and I started, all of which was fueled by insecurity, jealousy, and lack of work ethic, ALL ON HIS PART. After endless counts of trying to make it work, it was clear that shit wasn’t working out, and we all decided it was best to go our ways. I guess the old saying is true, “You can’t shake hands with a fist.”
I still don’t think you are racist Kat, but damn, you do hate Ami…..

Granted I can only speak of what we witnessed on the show. There are millions of things that occur off the screen. But Kat Von D says she’s blameless?! The whole time on Miami Ink, all she ever did was bitch about how much Miami sucked, how bad she wanted to go home. She calls Ami James’ work ethic into question?! How many times did she get pissy and storm off to the beach? Or was so hungover that she’d be late to work or not go in at all? I have no doubt that Ami is probably pretty difficult to get along with. As talented as he is, he’s prickly, stubborn, and doesn’t always think before he speaks. But if he’s not at the shop, tattooing everyone, he’s at the bar he co-OWNS, he’s working on his bikes, he’s helping friends, or he’s caring for his dog.
I don’t know if I believe that Kat wrote that horrible message. I hope not because there are things you just don’t do and this is one of them. But it pisses me off that she’s walking around, acting like she played no part in her own misery. I’m not saying no one else is to blame or that Ami and Kat did not get along. Obviously they didn’t. But Kat is not the innocent little angel she’s trying to portray herself as.
It pisses me off when people call others’ characters into question and don’t take responsibility for their own. Obviously I’m a “Miami Ink” and Ami James fan. I fully and whole-heartedly admit that. But I really liked Kat during her time on MI. I even watched several episodes of “LA Ink”. I rooted for her. But hearing her whine about how she’s been attacked and she’s been abused sicken me. It’s immature and really kind of retarded for someone to be acting that’s been professional for 10 years, like they’ll say.
Grow up.
