What a Tangled web this guy weaved, when he approached theme park royalty like a creep.
Long hair and a sweet smile didn’t stop Katrina, a former Princess Rapunzel actress at Disney World, from cutting a fan meet-and-greet short after one freaky fella flashed his “gross” ink.
“I told a guest I wouldn’t take a photo with them because of their inappropriate tattoo of the Disney princess,” Katrina recalled, detailing the hairy encounter to over 570,000 TikTok viewers.
The indecent incident occurred at age 19, while she portrayed the mane character in the Disney College Program — a paid internship that offers young adults on-the-job training and educational opportunities.
But Katrina was the one who taught this tattooed fool a thing or two.
“A man came in during our fireworks set…he was the only guest in the room — so it’s just this man, the princesses, the photographers and an attendant,” she said. “He came up to me and was like, ‘Oh, Rapunzel, I want to show you my tattoo.’”
Katrina, who was stationed at the park’s Town Square Theater alongside two other Disney damsels, kindly agreed to take a peek at the art on his arm.
Unfortunately, however, the image left her seeing red.
“It is a risqué, to say the least, photo of Rapunzel with only her hair covering her bits and some suggestive adult things going on,” said the blond of the NSFW stamp. “Then I realize, this guy’s whole body is covered in tattoos like that of the princesses.”
The fairy tale star’s nightmare only got worse from there.
“Next, he asks me, ‘Can I have a hug?,’” she remembered. “I said ‘No.’”
“Then he said, ‘Well, can we take a picture?,’ and I said ‘No. None of us are going to take a picture with you.’”
The noticeably “upset,” unnamed man moved on to the next princess, hoping she hadn’t caught wind of Katrina’s protest.
But an incensed Katrina notified the attendant of the bonehead’s odd behavior, demanding immediate intervention.
“I’m explaining [to the attendant], ‘You need to get a manger. This guy needs to cover up. None of us need to see photos like that of our characters,” she said, “or give him a hug or don’t need the character taking a picture next to that kind of a tattoo for that to be out online.”
“It was like, this is bad,” said Katrina with an awkward laugh. “Red flag, red flag. Sirens going off.”
A manger quickly arrived on the scene with an ultimatum for the “pissed” perv — either cover the tats with a long-sleeve shirt and sweatpants or be escorted off of Disney’s grounds by security.
It’s unclear whether the dope chose to put on more clothes or get the old heave-ho.
Either way, social media supporters showered Katrina with support for vanquishing the villain in true Disney princess style.
“Shout out to you for not freezing which is what I would’ve done at 19,” clapped a commenter.
“I’m so proud of you. That’s so uncomfortable,” another praised.
“I could not imagine being 19 and experiencing a moment like that while in character,” wrote an equally impressed onlooker, to which Katrina said, “I was definitely shocking to me, and I was worried I would get in trouble.
“Thankfully my team had my back!.”
