We all know that celebrities often like to indulge the phrase “if you’ve got it, flaunt it”, but very few escape ridicule when they look online the next morning.

Megan Fox, the American actress and model, however, may be fairly satisfied with what she saw on a host of websites today as she had breakfast. She arrived to the British premiere of ‘Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen’ at Leicester Square on Monday evening looking typically stunning in her designer black dress, but what the excitable paparazzi really enjoyed were her array of tattoos on show for the world to see.

  

Fox, 23, who has also starred in Bad Boys 2 and How to Lose Friends & Alienate People, currently has eight known tattoos, including her fiancés name “Brian” on her lower hip and a picture of Marilyn Monroe’s face on her right forearm (above).

We love Megan Fox and all her tattoos, and particularly the one of Marilyn Monroe. Check out our previous blog posts of people who have good and bad celebrity tattoos.

And, see our Celebrity Tattoos for fantastic temporary designs that all you favourite celebs are sporting!

Pop princess Kylie Minogue won’t be asking herself “Je ne sais pas pour quoi?” after her boyfriend, Andres Velencoso Segura – the Spanish Supermodel – has expressed his love by having her name tattooed below his hip.

   

What she may ask herself, however, is what will happen to the tattoo if and when they break up? A close source to the Aussie singer has retaliated to people commenting on the 10-year age gap, by stating “Andres knows how insecure the 10-year age gap makes her feel and this gesture has really boosted her happiness.”

We certainly hope so. With so many celebrities having tattoos applied to express their undying love and lust to the world, we just hope that Kylie and Andres go the distance, or there could be some “tears on my pillow”. Well, maybe not…

There is rarely a day goes by that a celebrity presents the world with a new tattoo, and one that either causes debate or ridicule!

So, when we heard that Rihanna, the 21-year-old R’n’B singer, has had an image of gun added to her growing collection of tats, we wondered whether it was just a cheap shot at gaining some media attention.

The tattoo, which depicts a gun and is located under her arm on her rib cage, is Rihanna’s fourth and joins an existing Maori design on her right hand and “Shhh” on her finger.

Her tattoo artist, Bang Bang, said: “I really wanted to put it here…she loved ’em! But, Cover Girl wouldn’t have liked it much…and they pay the bills!”

Let’s just hope Rihanna hasn’t shot herself in the foot with this one….(sorry)

We love it at Tattoo Fashion when celebrities get new tattoos, particularly when they hit the headlines.

Peaches Geldof, unruly daughter of Sir Bob, has constantly roused the press with her ample body motifs, and after sunbathing topless on a beach in South America recently, has exposed her full tat portfolio to the world! 

    

The majority of the 20 designs are references to ex-boyfriends and her new addition, the words ‘Ex Valentine’ - relating to old flame Faris Badwan, front man with The Horrors – just reinforces how careful she should be when selecting both men and tattoos in the future!

But, we think as long as she’s happy and enjoys getting tattoos then good on her!

We love Beck’s tattoos here at Tattoo Fashion and we like to keep tabs on any new additions to his body art. His recent tat, however, hasn’t gone down too well in the Beckham household as he allegedly ignored Posh’s appeal not to have anymore.

As Becks was parading his football skills during a training session for AC Milan in Dubai, he was also parading his new biblical proverb design under his left arm which translates: “My son, do not forget my teaching but keep my commands in your heart”. 

    

The latest pictures also display a wing-shaped tattoo on the inside of his upper left arm, and this slightly unclear cherub pattern could be mirroring the same design on his right arm.

Either way, we think his new tats look great - even if a certain ex-Spice Girl disagrees….

One of the original tattoo bad boys, hellion and tabloid treasure; Tommy Lee’s tattoos have always been a work in progress.

Not only partnered with some of the sexiest women on the planet, Tommy Lee’s array of body motifs have equally been a flamboyant affair.

The ex-Motley Crue drummer caused controversy in 1998 when he had a Nazi swastika tattoo drawn on his left arm. He has since had it removed and admitted: “It was something I did and I have no one else to blame.”

It seems Tommy Lee’s tattoos last as long as his relationships these days……

She may be covered in a series of animated and questionable tattoos, but never before has Cheryl Cole roused such a stir over her body motifs. Her elusive hand tattoo is the talk of the tattoo town, with hardened gang members and rock stars suddenly loosing their invaluable street credibility.

Well, gangster or no gangster, take a look! We now wait with baited breath for her ‘I love Ashley’ eyeball tattoo… Don’t forget you can order this very tattoo from us today!

Well you can’t keep a good woman down. Amy Winehouse seems to be in the news constantly but we all at Tattoofashion think she is great. Not just for winning 5 Grammy Awards (the first British Female to ever do so), not just for having an amazing singing voice (wow Back to Black is incredible), not just for bouncing back every time she receives a knock. We also love her for he incredible range of tattoos she has managed to cram on to that minute frame of hers. In her honour we have decided to create a number Amy Winehouse’s tattoos as a tribute. The 5 incredible Amy Winehouse tattoos to choose from, including: Amy Girl, Daddy Horseshoe, Cynthia, Fan Girl & Love Hearts. These are all exclusive to Tattoofashion.

So finally, I am sure we wish Amy all the very best with her latest trials and tribulations and we would just like to say………Amy Winehouse we salute you.

The Oscars are soon upon us, thats if the writers strike does not bring it to a halt. So it got me thinking how many Oscar winners/nominees have got a tattoo of some kind. Then it dawned on me there are loads of famous stars that have all sported all shapes and hues of tattoo designs, even visible at the Oscar ceremony (if you look closely).

 Oscar winners for the guys are:

Good old Johnny Depp (who is nominated this year for Sweeney Todd), Robert de Niro, Sean Connery, Nicholas Cage, Sean Penn, Cuba Godding Jr., and Ben Affleck

 Oscar winners for the Girls are :

Angelina Jolie, Gwyneth Paltrow, Charlize Theron, Halle Berry, Helen Mirren, Julia Roberts, Jodie Foster, Jessica Lange, Geena Davis, Marisa Tomei, Whoopi Goldberg and Melannie Griffith.

Lets just hope that Johnny does win this year and so he can also join this illustrious bunch. If you know of any other famous Oscar winners with a tattoo let us know.
