Born Jeffrey Steininger, Jeffree Star is the poster child for superficiality. With tattoos on his wrist that display the words "Vanity" and "Fake". If you listen to his music you will quickly learn that he embraces being a controversial figure amongst tennagers. From makeup artist to music artist, Jeffree Star has quickly became one of the most recognizable faces of "the scene". His popularity mainly lies on his music page on MySpace known for featuring songs such as "Lollipop Luxury", "Plastic Surgery Slumber Party" and "We Want Cunt". If you know of Jeffree Star, you must know his most common nicknames are 'Cunt' and 'Queen of the Beautifuls'. His severe OCD quickly led to his obsession with looking perfect. He has many tattoos of beauty icons such as Princess Diana, JonBenét Ramsey, Marilyn Monroe, and Sharon Tate. He often gets tatoos from Kat Von D, one of the most famous tattoo artists of our generation. Jeffree Star is often said to be both a positive and negative influence on the Y generation.
