Matt Damon has once again offered a terrible take on something in the news cycle, only this time it’s (fortunately) not about diversity, the “spectrum” of sexual misconduct, or Australia. No, this time it’s about the objectively terrible fucking tattoo of a stupid fucking mythical phoenix on his best friend Ben…
Katie was 19 when she went to get her first tattoo, from an artist whose work she’d seen on other people’s bodies and admired. In her memory, nothing “super weird” happened that day, though she remembers the artist being flirtatious. The next two times, when she returned to have a new, larger piece done, she says…
After closely examining a video posted by model Gigi Hadid over the weekend, many have decided the eyes tattooed on boyfriend Zayn Malik’s chest belong to none other than Hadid herself. What began as a simple boomerang of Malik dancing his heart out while wearing little more than an unbuttoned blazer has turned into a…
A lot happened on Justin Bieber’s torso today.
Two nights ago, while I was trying to shove a plate of slightly burnt asparagus into a Ziploc bag, slap some Bandaids on my ankles, and figure out how to get to the Passover dinner I was inappropriately late for, I got a Snapchat. It was a life-altering Snapchat, the kind I imagine is reserved for DJ Khaled, or an…
Drake should be having a good week. On Saturday he released a new album and celebrated in London with his parents by his side. A ton of fucking people have listened to said album and Nicki Minaj likes him again. Unfortunately, Drake decided to undermine these blessings with a new tattoo that is somehow the pinnacle of…
Dame Judi Dench, my 81-year-old mother and life coach, just got her first tattoo. The Telegraph reports it was “a birthday gift from her actress daughter,” Finty Williams, whom Dench said is “wonderful with surprises.”
Look at this avid Bernie Sanders supporter’s inner wrists. Look at how confident they are. But specifically, look at that right guy. That lil bird. Is that the same lil bird who landed on Bernie’s podium? Is it that bird, but wearing a little Bernie wig and tiny Bernie glasses in front of a brilliant socialist sun? A…
Ben Affleck said the horrible phoenix tattoo on his back is “fake,” and I say he’s lying. In an interview with Mario Lopez, a person far too kind to lie to, Affleck claimed the hideous thing (that both Jennifer Lopez and Jennifer Garner have publicly derided) was “for a movie.”
A recent study published in the American Journal of Human Biology suggests that people with previous tattoo experience may have a better immune response to new tattoos than those being inked for the first time. That’s the finding if you read the open access journal article, anyway. If you stick to the headlines of…
Much like still waters run deep, so do heavily tattooed, brat-stached piss boys like Justin Bieber.
Ben Affleck has a tattoo on his back. Reporters first noticed it in July, after someone photographed what appeared to be dragon tail peeking out from under his shirt. Could it be...? No, it couldn’t, we all thought at the time. But thanks to a more revealing image of Affleck on the set of his new film Live By Night…
Welcome to Grim Yelp Reviews, a regular feature where we share people’s worst experiences at the worst places. This week, you either got the Chinese symbol for “respect” or “biohazard,” and you will never, ever know.
Ed Sheeran, the devil incarnate, pulled exactly the stunt that I suspected. Turns out that an awful children’s drawing of lion is actually permanently tattooed on his chest. He only had it covered up earlier because he’s shooting a TV show.
Remember that unfortunate, childlike, full color tattoo of a lion’s head that Ed Sheeran unwisely tattooed on his chest?
As a child, people with tattoos were badasses and rebels—I imagined they sat in somebody’s basement, fearless, silent and maybe smoking a cigarette while someone bled them slowly in the name of body art. I wanted to feel that strength. I was petite and black and a girl and tired of being teased and abused. I wanted to…
Beyoncé now has a collection of very cool, very edgy flash tattoos that should keep you covered for every music festival and girls’ trip to Cabo that your liver and nervous system can handle.
At this weekend’s Comic-Con, Jennifer Lawrence was asked about the tiny, subtle hand tattoo you definitely never knew she had. Turns out, the tat is scientifically inaccurate. Celebrities can make permanent bad decisions! They’re just like us!
Miley Cyrus truly loves herself some avocados. The singer recently posted a photo on Instagram of her new tat—a portrait of a little avocado on her arm. Her latest ink comes just a few days after the very controversial Guacamole Gate and just in time for today’s holiday where Americans all over the nation are gorging…
An Australian woman has been banned from breastfeeding her 11-month-old because she got a tattoo four weeks earlier, despite recording negative results on HIV and hepatitis tests.
