This has been a tough year for Kat Von D. Her house burned down, killing her beloved pet cat, her engagement to Jesse James was called off and now RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned that her reality show LA Ink has been canceled.
"TLC has decided that the current season of LA Ink will be its last. The network is proud of what the series has accomplished in its four seasons, following Kat Von D's journey as an artist from Miami to Los Angeles,” TLC said in an exclusive statement to RadarOnline.com.

The fourth season was bittersweet for the self-made tattoo mogul, whose real name is Katherine von Drachenberg, showcasing her relationship with bad boy Jesse James and their wedding plans. When their engagement was called off Kat struggled with the publicity, storming off the set of Good Day LA after their intro of her impending interview only focused on her breakup.
“What can I say? I suck,” Kat wrote to her fans on Facebook, defending her relationship with James and her handling of the show.

Kat tweeted a cryptic message Wednesday night from Vegas, in a response to a fan saying her show was annoying because it focused too much on her personal life. “perhaps a better way to say it is "the show is more annoying".... Trust me, wish it could be about art only.”
In the season premiere of the show the 29-year-old reality got a tattoo of her then-fiancé Jesse James’ face, and has said she has “no regrets” even though they’re now broken-up.

The show had become all drama, and no ink. The tattoo customers were practically forgotten.

Jesse James and Jon Gosselin made the list of the top 10 most hated people and their X-ladies, Kat and Kate both lose their TLC shows. It's time for TLC to show more decency and drop Sister Wives. That is a gross show.

Kate plus 8 gets cancelled and now this other crap reality show? Good...crossing fingers that this is an ongoing trend for all sh*tty reality shows. Next move, cancel all Housewives shows and the garbage known as the Kardashians!!!!

I find it admirable that she is CLEAN/SOBER has the nerve to have a show dissecting her life - I couldn't do that !!
I wish her nothing but exceptional luck in her life and love. I will always be a BIG FAN !!!

REALLY PEOPLE ??
I met Kat. She is very kind, loving and humble. If you think ANYONE on tv is really like their tv persona you are only fooling yourselves !! I LOVE Kat, her show & I'm a "regular" person - NO tattoosj/piercings.

Only show I would watch with her in it is getting the tattoos REMOVED. Laser takes 10x longer that putting them on and is 10x10 more painful.

wow, what a loss. Whatever will Kat do now? ;)

Good, she's trash and so are tattoos. TLC has really gone down hill.

I could never understand why she was a big deal anyway. she comes across as really stoned all the time - totally zonked out.. talking really slow like she is either blitzed out on pot and pills OR she's just extremely uneducated and "slow".
