It turns out more than a few people can say they've been tattooed by Harley Quinn.


Margot Robbie revealed her penchant for amateur tattooing on Friday's Tonight Show. It's a hobby that began when she purchased a tattoo gun on eBay. (Yes, that's a thing you can do.)


Now, she practices on her friends, including Cara Delevingne. She even asked a few pals to let her tattoo them in lieu of a birthday gift.


Gotta be honest: her "girl holding a balloon" is pretty cute.

Auke Boersma is a Dutch advertising executive who recently travelled to North Korea's capital of Pyongyang as a tourist.

Boersma, who works for Light Reaction in Singapore, told Mashable he was keen to go because he wanted to see how accurately the hermit kingdom is portrayed in outside media. Read more...
