It seems as though everyone in Hollywood has a tattoo nowadays. Celebrity ink is only growing in popularity, especially among young starlets, but not all ink is created equal. Here are a few of the most odd and inexplicable tattoos out there.
1. Miley Cyrus’s Cat Emoji Tattoo
Miley recently got this sad kitty emoji tattoo on her inner lip. If only she had thought to convey her message via text instead!
2. Lena Dunham’s Eloise Tattoos
As a teen, Lena got these illustrations from children’s book Eloise by Kay Thompson permanently inked on her back.
3. Rihanna’s Tribal Tattoo
It was hard to pick just one from Rihanna’s collection of more than 20 tattoos, but this tribal tattoo on her hand might just take the cake!
4. P!nk’s Barcode Tattoo
We may love P!nk, but we’re not sold on this barcode tattoo, which displays Pink’s lucky number, 13; her birthdate, September 8, 1979; and the release date of her album M!ssundazstood, November 20, 2001.
5. Megan Fox’s Quote Tattoo
Megan’s back tattoo bearing the words “We will all laugh at gilded butterflies” has left more than a few people scratching their heads.
6. Scarlett Johansson’s Sunrise Tattoo
Scarlett Johansson? Beautiful. Sunrises? Beautiful. This crayon-drawn sunrise tattoo on Scarlett’s arm? Not so lovely.
7. Cara Delevingne’s Lion Tattoo
Like Rihanna, it was hard to pick just one among Cara’s many tattoos, but her tattoo of a lion on her finger might just be her strangest choice.
8. Audrina Patridge’s Snake and Heart Tattoo
We’re not quite sure what made Audrina choose this snake and heart tattoo on her neck, but here’s hoping she wears her hair down a lot more often!
9. Christina Ricci’s Lion Tattoo
Is it a lion? A cloud? A ghost? Whatever Christina got inked on her back, we have to imagine it wasn’t entirely thought out.
10. Rita Ora’s Pinup Girl Tattoo
Rita made a tribute to Alberto Vargas with this topless pinup girl named Rosetta that she had inked on her ribcage.
11. Victoria Beckham’s Spine Tattoo
We’re not sure what Victoria’s spine tattoo is supposed to signify, but we’re sure that it must have hurt!
12. Cheryl Cole’s Rose Tattoo
Cheryl’s rose tattoo, which covers the entire lower half of her back and her derriere, took 15 hours to create.
13. Hayden Panettiere’s Misspelled Tattoo
Hayden’s vertical back tattoo was intended to spell out “live without regrets” in Italian, but unfortunately for her, her tattoo artist added an extra “i” in “rimpianti,” making it “rimipianti.” Talk about regret! But luckily, the starlet is getting it removed.
