Renee Shin

This isn't exactly a model ID request, because clearly I have the ID, but all I've found on Renee Shin can be found Here, from a Photographer found Here and Here and maybe here. But she's quite pretty. One would think that she has a model portfolio out there, or something to help make her famous. If anyone finds more, post it in the comments.

Based on the very limited evidence, I'd say "pretty" is an understatement.

And before the tattoo bashers get started, I have to say those two minor tattoos don't bother me at all.

Actually, it looks like the one on her upper back is a bit bigger than it seems in these pics:

Still not too bad, though.


Posted by: Bigfoot Dean on Aug 28, 12 | 4:15 am

definitely a hottie but a bit too clothed...


Posted by: ..... on Aug 28, 12 | 4:55 am

I like her. She's a hottie.


Posted by: Quyen on Aug 28, 12 | 5:40 am

She has that California look lol

Gorgeous, I know Doc's a fan of cross-eyed Asians, me too especially when they're this cute...

I agree with ..... She needs to have fewer clothes!


Posted by: mcantrell on Aug 28, 12 | 7:15 am

Oh my, she is cute! Wow, love it when she smiles! I dislike the tats.

haha luke72 - cross eyed - funny!

Quyen - you're right, she does look very Californian and I like it!

Renee is also projecting a really fun energy. Like her. She's pretty too


Posted by: Basho on Aug 28, 12 | 11:03 am

She loves her Instagram pictures, but adding Kayne West lyrics to your backside is not the way to win French over….

Her backside tattoo has these lyrics: Get away from me loneliness get away from me misery.

Seems she wants more ink. Sadly, her beauty comes with an expiration date I'm afraid :(


Posted by: mookjjipa on Aug 28, 12 | 4:15 pm

Excuse me Doktor: Could you ask MR. mookkjjipa to explain his comment?


Posted by: NIGHTHAWK on Aug 29, 12 | 3:45 am

I assume he means that if she gets too much more ink, she will no longer be attractive.


Posted by: Dr. Lee on Aug 29, 12 | 4:00 am

Not to worry. I'm pretty sure the expiration date is about 40 yrs away. Until then she's perfect.


Posted by: arf on Aug 29, 12 | 4:12 am

Doesn't this apply to every model? AGE always ends model careers (save Marilyn, Dolly et al.) Heidi Klum isn't doing too bad either!

MR. moojjipa's comment SOUNDS like a THREAT!? WHO ARE YOU DUDE? Explain your comment!


Posted by: NIGHTHAWK on Aug 29, 12 | 4:14 am

If I have OVERSTEPPED due to a lack of English vocabulary on the part of MR.moojjipa: I apologize..sincerely.

I deal with this problem every day with my native Chinese spouse! =:-}


Posted by: NIGHTHAWK on Aug 29, 12 | 4:40 am

Calm down Nighthawk! I have already explained mookjjipa's comments, and arf was only joking.


Posted by: Dr. Lee on Aug 29, 12 | 5:20 am

Good heaven's above Nighthawk. Talk about deciding to take someone's comments the wrong way. I think it is fairly clear what moojjipa meant.


Posted by: Basho on Aug 29, 12 | 12:03 pm

Not sure why his/her comment struck me as a threat? Sorry for wasting so much INK! =:-{


Posted by: NIGHTHAWK on Aug 29, 12 | 1:55 pm

so much hostility! the doc clearly explained what i thought was already evident in my comment. shes a beautiful girl, but permanently etching kanye's lyrics into your skin is a fast way to change that...in my opinion.

no hard feelings nighthawk...i really appreciate the way you incorporated INK into your latest comment...we've come full circle!


Posted by: mookjjipa on Aug 29, 12 | 5:22 pm

And order is restored


Posted by: Basho on Aug 29, 12 | 6:23 pm

Come to think of it, THAT would be a unique tattoo....the words "Expiration Date: Month/Day/Year" written in an official looking font.

Or better yet, how about a tattoo, of....Tattoo! (Fantasy Island reference)

Mr. Rourke: Ah, that is our Asian Siren getting off the plane.

Tattoo: What does she want boss?

Mr. Rourke: She wants a tattoo on her back.

Tattoo: I'm on it, boss.


Posted by: French on Aug 29, 12 | 8:07 pm

Again I have to disagree. The saying on her back is very cool, don't think it's something she will regret at all. Doesn't really matter if it's a Kanye lyric, it's a meaningful quote that will be so long after Kanye has retired. Ink that has meaning to the person who gets them is very rarely regretted. Again, I know plenty of peeps with tats who are around my age or older (mid 40's) and none of them are wringing their hands and crying about a tattoo the wish they hadn't gotten. The only people who think they'll regret them are people who don't have any, because they really don't get it. I don't have one but regret not getting one when I was younger.

Hopefully we can see more of this lovely young lady down the road.


Posted by: slackerking on Aug 29, 12 | 8:40 pm

Slackerking: I wonder what percentage of tattoos are simply words? I wonder what consideration there is about the font style, the size of the font, the swirly artwork underneath, and if (yes) the writer of those lyrics could sue her if she gets hired as a model and does not compensate the song writer?

Agreed that it is of course her choice to do what she wants.

You are mid-40s? Have you seen a woman today with any lyrics from Led Zeppelin, Rush, or even from the Australian band The Sherbs? I see a lot of fading butterflies, but this lyric thing must be a newer trend.

Time will tell....


Posted by: French on Aug 29, 12 | 9:36 pm

She is really nice, but ink ain't hot, too bad she ruins it


Posted by: majiemao on Aug 30, 12 | 1:21 am

I see a little silouetto of a man
Scaramouche, scaramouche
Would you do the fandango?
Thunderbolt and lightning
Very, very frightening me.

Girl gets that tattoo I'll follow her anywhere.


Posted by: dbldipper on Aug 30, 12 | 4:16 am

dbldipper: Ha ha, Now those are some REAL lyrics. Queen rules!

We park our cars in the same garage....

Well played, sir!


Posted by: French on Aug 30, 12 | 4:20 am

LOL French. Your comment just made me think of Skyhooks' "You Just Like Me 'Cos I'm Good in Bed" inked into some model's back. (Btw, you read it here first!)
Slackerking - you're never too old to get a tat.
haha, a mate got a barcode tat in China.
Oh, better say something about Ms Shin. Cute face, nice body!


Posted by: longtack on Aug 30, 12 | 6:31 pm

French: Well, I live in LA and used to hang out on the Sunset Strip so I've seen thousands of tattoos. Even back in the heyday of the strip, girls had all kinds of crazy tattoos. Many had writing, though I don't remember seeing any Zep or Rush specifically. I have seen a ton of Guns, Poison, Motley Crue and that type lyrics because that was when I was there. I don't get to see many women's tattoos anymore, as my wife would frown on it:) but I do agree writing is more prevalent now than in the past but then tattoos are mainstream now, not a fringe thing. Admittedly I live in a place where it is more common than not so maybe my perspective is skewed, but most eveywhere I've been in the world ink is very commonplace at this time and I don't see that trend reversing.

Personally I like a good quote, if I'd found one that meant something big in my life I would have probably gotten it inked. Certainly size and font are important and I agree that smaller is better. While I like tats, I don't personally love the larger or all over choices but I support each persons right to do what they like.

I don't believe copywrite applies in that case. You can tattoo a person's likeness and you don't have to pay so I think that would hold true with lyrics also. Plus I doubt that Kanye is the first person to use the phrase. It would be difficult to prove ownership.

Dbldipper: While I love Queen's music and would take it a thousand times over Kanye, I have to say that the Kanye quote is much more meaningful than the Bohemian Rhapsody line would be. To me.


Posted by: slackerking on Aug 30, 12 | 8:40 pm

Slackerking: Guns N' Roses' November Rain...
'Cause nothin' lasts forever
And we both know hearts can change....

That takes me back.

If a model has a song lyric tattoo on her, and that model is hired for a campaign whereby the lyrics are seen as she promotes a product, then yes, the song writer can sue. The songwriter's words were "used" in an advertisement and they should be compensated.

Would you hire a model with lyrics from, say, Metallica- a band with a history of suing everyone and everything that even dreams of copying their work?

Words are powerful...companies all over the world spend millions on just the right kind of font to convey the right kind of message.

I think the font she chose for her Kayne West tattoo was a poor choice- it detracts from the meaning rather than enhances it. I also think that THAT exact tattoo would distinguish her (in a negative way) and thereby limit her career.

And she is very pretty.

I am laughing at your comment about why you don't see many tattoos anymore, lol.


Posted by: French on Aug 30, 12 | 9:32 pm

I don't think tattoos matter too much anymore for models. They just cover them with makeup if they're not wanted. I worked in Hollywood post production for almost a decade and it's never an issue. Most of the actors have them, they just put coverup before shooting starts. I'm sure if they didn't, the issue you bring up might be relevant but it's very easy to work around. Even large tattoos aren't difficult to nullify, either with makeup or in post production and photoshop.

ah yes GnR, I was lucky enough to see them a dozen times in little clubs before they became big. Almost got a tat of them because they were my favorite band, pretty glad I didn't even though they're still a favorite of mine.

I checked the other pics, and I do agree the font isn't exactly the best choice for it but hey, it's not my back:)


Posted by: slackerking on Aug 30, 12 | 11:41 pm

You saw GnR a dozen times?!?!?!?! I know this is supposed to be about Asian Sirens but wow! I wanted to see them but it never worked out.

What I love about America's west coast is that from Seattle to San Diego, they have beautiful Asian women from every country as well as so many that are mixed, thanks to generations upon generations there.

I guess regardless of your ethnic background, living in LA- or more specifically Hollywood, you would adopt some of those traits. The Vietnamese in Houston are from another planet compared to the Vietnamese I've met from Los Angeles.

Good points about the make-up cover ups. Ten years there? The stories you must have!

A childhood buddy of mine went to Los Angeles as a truck driver, but because of his good looks got hired in his second day there as an extra on Entourage. Never took an acting class in his life. When I visited him, he took me to a shoot and I find that stuff pretty cool. Then off to Apple Pan Diner for banana cream pie, then Westminster for Vietnamese.

Why am I not living there?


Posted by: French on Aug 31, 12 | 12:33 am

She's very pretty and I like her a lot with the big hair, like in pic 3 of this
set.

That said, when there aren't many nude pictures around, you guys have a way of coming up with some interesting talk. :)

Btw, I love Queen and GnR...
French, you're lucky because GnR (well, without Slash) are still out there doing concerts, so make it happen. ;)
Queen, on the other hand, was impossible for me to watch. But still they made for many beautiful days.


Posted by: daznlover on Sep 02, 12 | 4:02 am

I went to a GnR concert, but GnR didn't :-p

Not really, but you get the point. I used to hate GnR, but not anymore cuz compared to Motley Crue and the like, they can actually play.

Renee's hot!!
