Yup whenever you hear that sexy simpson talking. Call the number up. Cause with her busy schedule and touring. SHe was eating all kinds of junk food. On her photo shoots they had to go back and digitally remove pimples on her face. Now look at her. Not that i've seen her face, maybe glanced LOL Well now i'm thinking these bits are made for poppin!!

It could but probably wouldn't harm her. But certainly her whole mouth woud hurt.  If it is only her teeth that hurts it is probably because she bite too hard on a hard surface

I'm a piercer, and almost everybody I've pierced has said that it dosent hurt. Its actuially one of the easiest piercings to get done. I got it done, and truthfully, my pain tolarance is very low.( I took it out a few years ago though).I scream when I get blood taken, or when I get a needle at a doctor.\n\nIf you look at the structure of the tongue, there is two muscles that run paralell beside eachother. The veins and most of the nerves are along the sides aswell(usuially-the piercer should check with a flashlight to check your tongue). \nWhen you clamp the tongue to pierce it, you clamp a bit of the sides, and thats why the clamp hurts a bit. The clamp is a good thing, because it keeps your tongue from moving around, and you get pierced at the right place. The needle part goes through the middle tissue, which dosent hurt that much.\nWhat does hurt is the after effects. The tongue is a quick healing piercing ( fully healed in about 2 weeks), but it tends to swell alot. It can be swollen for 5 to 7 days.Ice and popsicles can help.So can advil and anti-inflamatory medication.\n\nHeres a copy of the proper aftercare.From the APP website(Its a great website, you should check it out)\n\nCleaning Solutions\nUse either one or both of the following solutions for inside the mouth:\n\n- Antimicrobial or antibacterial alcohol-free mouth rinse* \n- Packaged sterile saline solution* with no additives (read the label!) or non-iodized sea salt mixture: Dissolve 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon of non-iodized (iodine free) sea salt into one cup (8 oz) of warm distilled or bottled water. A stronger mixture is not better! Saline solution that is too strong can irritate the piercing. (If you have high blood pressure or a heart condition, please check with your doctor before using a saline product inside the mouth as your primary cleaning solution.)\n\nCLEANING INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSIDE THE MOUTH\nRinse mouth 4-5 times daily with cleaning solution for 30-60 seconds after meals and at bedtime during the entire healing period. If you over clean, it may cause discoloration or irritation of tongue. \n\nWHAT IS NORMAL?\n- For the first three to five days: significant swelling, light bleeding, bruising, and/or tenderness.\n- After that: Some swelling, light secretion of a whitish yellow fluid (not pus).\n- A piercing may seem healed before healing is complete. This is because piercings heal from the outside in, and although it feels healed the tissue remains fragile on the inside. BE PATIENT, and Keep cleaning throughout the entire healing period.\n- Even healed piercings can shrink or close in minutes after having been there for years! This varies from person to person; if you like your piercing, leave the jewelry in place.\n\nWHAT TO DO\nTo help reduce swelling\n- Allow small pieces of ice to dissolve in the mouth.\n- Take an over the counter, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory such as Ibuprofen or Naproxyn Sodium* according to package instructions.\n- Sleep with your head elevated above your heart during the first few nights.\n\nTo maintain good oral hygiene\n- Use a new soft-bristled toothbrush and keep it clean.\n- Brush your teeth, and use your chosen rinse (saline or mouthwash) after every meal.\n- During healing floss daily, and gently brush your teeth, tongue and jewelry. Once healed, brush the jewelry more thoroughly to avoid plaque build up.\n\nStay healthy\n- The healthier your lifestyle, the easier it will be for your piercing to heal.\n- Get enough sleep and eat a nutritious diet.\n\nWHAT TO AVOID\n- DO NOT PLAY WITH THE JEWELRY. Long term effects of playing with, and clicking the jewelry against the teeth can result in permanent damage to teeth and other oral structures. See the APP’s Brochure: “Oral Piercing Risks and Safety Measures” for more information.\n- Avoid undue trauma; excessive talking or playing with the jewelry during healing can cause the formation of unsightly and uncomfortable scar tissue, migration, and other complications

ok i know exactly how you must feel. I have done this exact same thing. I used to cut and eventually felt so bad i told my friends and they saved my life basically. but then i went through a rough time during my senior year in high school and started doing my own pericings. I did two of them. And omg did they get infected! tell your friend that if she wants her ears peirced to get it done profesionally. this could be a new way of her hurting herself. i mean 3 is kinda excessive. just sit her down and express your concern hopefully she will listen. besides the infections that come with at home pirecings are awful and can be dangerous. *also if she is pericing cartalige she could over do it and make it break. i did this and now the top part of my left ear droops its embarassing as hell*

Well, it's not technically a piercing if it's not going through a piece of your body. I know some companies make magnetic tongue jewelry that magnetizes two balls together and stays on your tongue, though I would be wary because these could be easily swallowed.

Like any piercing, it can be dangerous if the place you get it done at is not sterile. Some complications besides infection from an insterile needle include: \n\n1. Chipped or Broken Front Teeth \nThe majority of patients we see with tongue barbells wind up with chips, cracks or fractures in their front teeth. These have to be repaired with fillings or crowns.\n\n\n2. Gum Surgery \n\nWe've had to refer patients to periodontists for surgical correction of damage caused by rubbing tongue barbells.\n\n3. It can go down the wrong way. \nThe barbell can come un-screwed and wind up in a lung.\n\n\nApparently there are cases of people DYING (http://www.drhendry.ca/InfoAndLinks/TonguePiercing/Piercing.html) <---shows some pretty gross pictures, beware. \n\nAnyways, I would imagine most of these are extreme cases. In my opinion, it isn't really worth the risk! Your heath is most important!

It can be pretty dangerous as it is possible to hit the nerve in your tongue with the piercing tool.  This would permanently paralyze your tongue so if that sounds like an ok sacrifice, go for it.
