No matter how big Kat Von D gets, we know she was nothing before Miami Ink. But, really, we're not bitter about her decision to go back LA. You win some (LeBron), you lose some (Von D). Actually we're happy for the tattoo queen who made it mainstream to have an Emo fetish. Heck, we even think she makes a cute couple with that lecherous, Sandra-Bullock-heart break, jerk-off Jesse James. That's why we're stoked she'll be back in town this weekend. Ok, so it's not to make up with Miami Ink's Ami James. But who cares. She'll be signing copies of her new book The Tattoo Chronicles at 2 p.m. on Saturday at Barnes & Noble in Kendall.
