Rio Ink

Posted by admin

The latest American reality show to be adapted in Brazil is “Miami Ink,” which has become “Rio Ink” on Brazil’s People and Arts channel. Like the American version, the show follows the day-to-day operations of a tattoo shop, this time the Bonzai in Ipanema.

Over 22,000 people applied to be on the show, but the producers only picked twelve of the most interesting clients, and only six will be featured. The tattoo artists, which include the famed Lúcio Tatoo, had different requests than their American counterparts, which included Iemanjá, an Afro-Brazilian diety, and the Flamengo soccer team emblem.

The show is due to air later this year. To see the official site, click here.
