Celebrities and Their
Tattoos
When deciding on whether or not to get a tattoo, the first
thing to think about is how the tattoo will be a permanent mark
on the body. The next thing to consider is what the
preferred style might be. Most tattoo parlors have
samples of previous designs that can be altered to suit the
customer. But what many people enjoy is sampling and
mimicking what many of those whom we idolize might have already
had created.
Today, celebrities influence much of what is done in
society. Clothing styles, hair dos, things to eat, places
to hang out and, yes, even tattoos are often influenced by many
celebrities. There are more famous people that have
tattoos than what has been originally thought. Some may
be quite surprising.
As many people know, Angelina Jolie is one of the most
popular tattooed actresses today. She flaunts over a
dozen tattoos, each with their own meaning. Angelina Jolie is
such a fan of tattoos that there are always plans for more in
the future. In fact, she's made the tribal dragon tattoo
the most popular among women.
When it comes to tattoos and famous actresses, it's certain
that Pamela Anderson's name will be brought up. The arm
band was made popular almost entirely due to Pamela
Anderson. She also put an emphasis on the barbed wire
tattoo as it's one of her most well known marks.
Mike Tyson sports a facial tattoo that is of Maori
influence. While the tattoo didn't exactly cause a boom
in applied facial tattoos, it does prove interesting among
tattoo enthusiasts.
Johnny Depp is one highly acknowledge actor for having
tattoos. He's decorated with over twelve known tattoos
all with stories behind them. Depp's tattoo on his right
bicep is the most well known. When Johnny Depp and Wynona
Ryder were together, he had "Wynona Forever" tattooed on his
arm. When the relationship ended, it was modified to say
"Wino Forever." A good example of why tattoos should be
thought through before taking the leap.
A group tattoo was made for those actors in the Lord of the
Rings trilogy. Each actor received a tattoo of the word
"nine" written in Elvish script. Tattooed on different
areas of the body, and a first tattoo for some, each member now
has a permanent mark commemorating the making of the
movies.
Other movie celebrities where we will find many tattoos to
admire or copy include Drew Barrymore, Julia Roberts, Gillian
Anderson, Alyssa Milano, and Christina Ricci. We can also
find tattoos in music artists such as Billy Idol, Eminem, Henry
Rollins and Brittany Spears. Kobe Bryant, Dennis Rodman,
Anna Kournikova, and Stone Cold Steve Austin make up just a few
of the sports models that flaunt their own ink.
This is just a sampling of a few of the tattoos that are
likely to be found among celebrities. These people are
acknowledged and admired for their style and
personalities. Many of them have caused booms in the
tattoo trends throughout the years with special emphasis on
designs that closely resemble their own. It's not unusual
or unheard of by tattoo artists to receive requests for a
tattoo that looks just like one sported by the hip celebrity of
the times.
