The Controversial Truth About Kat Von D

Tattoo artist Kat Von D found fame and fortune starring on the reality TV show Miami Ink, before leaving for her own west coast iteration, LA Ink. But there's more to the famously feisty star than just her ink and her eccentric vegan vibes. Here's the untold truth of Kat Von D.

One way to completely destroy your reputation is to be a rumored anti-Semite. Yet, for some reason, despite concerning evidence, Kat Von D hasn't been splashed across the headlines as someone who might think of Jews as unequal to others. But Jewish pop culture outlet, Forward, compiled a bunch of worrying indications.

Some of it is guilt by association. Kat seems oddly cool being with guys who are into controversial stuff. At one point she was engaged to Jesse James, who was pictured in a partial Nazi uniform, while performing a Nazi salute. Her current husband, Leafar Sayer, admitted to a tattoo zine to having a swastika tattooed on his throat, but said it quote, "isn't political."

She was also once accused of signing an autograph to her former Jewish boss with a slur. She claimed the writing was forged by a disgruntled former coworker.

But that wasn't the only negative press plaguing her reputation.
