Are you looking for some ideas on what tattoo to get or are you simply curious about what your favorite celebs have inked across their skin? If so, look no further!
All our favorite celebrities have countless tattoos – some of them unique, others inspirational and some of them so subtle you might not have even known they were there. That said, here are 10 of the most awesome celebrity tattoos and their meanings.
#1 Demi Lovato
Demi Lovato chose to celebrate the release of her fourth album, Demi, by treating herself to a new tattoo. To commemorate the occasion she had the lyrics ‘Now I’m a warrior’, taken from her single Warrior, inscribed elegantly across her shoulder blade. The words are a great show of her personal strength and a beautiful reminder of her achievements so far.
#2 Leigh-Anne Pinnock
Little Mix’s Leigh-Anne Pinnock has a deep love of music and beauty – something she chose to express with one of her latest tattoos, which gently flows across her shoulder blade. The tattoo is a flutter of butterflies entwined with musical bars. The design was lovingly created by one of her closest friends.
#3 Tom Daly
As a reminder of his bronze medal success and all the fun he had at the 2012 London Olympic Games, diving star Tom Daly chose to commemorate the occasion permanently by having the Olympic rings tattooed all in black across his inner arm.
#4 Kate Moss
After sporting a delicate anchor tattooed on her wrist, Kate Moss started a wave of copycat tattoos. It’s a trend that has really taken off. That doesn’t make her tattoo any less awesome, however – it’s delicate, it’s subtle, and not to mention completely beautiful. It’s a reminder to herself to stay grounded, and of all the things holding onto her.
#5 Johnny Depp
Johnny Depp is not adverse to the odd tattoo but perhaps his greatest one is his tribute to his iconic Pirates of the Caribbean character, Jack Sparrow, (and also his son Jack), which is tattooed atop his forearm. The tattoo mimics Jack Sparrow’s own tattoo in design and placing, making this tattoo as a stand-out as it is awesome.
#6 Heidi Klum
Back in 2008, supermodel Heidi Klum surprised the world when she stepped out on to the red carpet with a tattoo down her forearm. The artwork was done to celebrate her renewing her marriage vows to her husband, Seal, thus his name was worked into the design. The tattoo also boasts three stars, each one to represent one of the model’s children. The overall design is utterly unique and not your usual partner’s name tattoo, which makes it as awesome as it is beautiful.
#7 Christina Ricci
Christina Ricci boasts several tattoos all across her body but her biggest and most prominent one is the lion head on her shoulder. The lion is Aslan, the heroic lion from C.S. Lewis’s The Chronicle’s of Narnia, which were Christina’s favorite books as a child. The tattoo is a tribute to her childhood and, as Aslan only comes when the land of Narnia is in peril, a sign of everlasting hope.
#8 Katy Perry
As a gentle reminder to herself and others as to how life ought to be lived, pop princess Katy Perry has “Go with the flow’\” written in sanskrit across her inner upper arm. The tattoo is simple and delicate, though it stands out all the same.
#9 Angelina Jolie
Angelina Jolie’s arm used to read ‘Billy Bob Forever’, but when her relationship with him quickly went south she had the tattoo laser removed. Now, in the very same spot, she proudly wears the longitudes and latitudes of her kids’ birthplaces. While it’s a bit different to simply having their names tattooed, the design works and looks incredibly chic upon her arm.
#10 Megan Fox
Megan Fox is definitely not running short on tattoos and isn’t afraid to display the fact. She’s proud of her ink and the artwork is a part of who she is, meaning she doesn’t worry about how they look when she’s acting or modelling. Perhaps her most awesome tattoo is the self-written poem which runs down her left ribcage and is inked in old-English lettering. It reads, “There once was a little girl who never knew love until a boy broke her heart.”
