Jon Gosselin Gets A Giant Tattoo Of A Dragon On His Back!

Jon G has a new addition to his brood of eight … a gigantic Korean dragon! The reality dad decided to ink his entire back with this symbol of “rebirth” and it took 14 hours!

What’s the first thing you do when you decide you want to turn your life around? Get a massive tattoo of a dragon holding a scroll on your back, but make sure it covers your entire back. That’s exactly what former Jon and Kate Plus 8 star, Jon Gosselin did, and he’s proud of it!

We told you first that Jon decided he wanted to make major changes in his life, and we even spoke to his life coach. But now it seems Jon’s new life includes a dragon tattoo symbolizing his tranformation into a better man.

“I have planned this tattoo for years now,” Jon tells RadarOnline. “I wanted something that resembled a rebirth or a change in me.”

The dad of eight and ex-husband of Kate Gosselin, designed the tattoo at Never Say Die Tattoo in Harrisburg, PA, and went under the needle for 14 hours to complete his design. Jon finished the final section of the dragon tattoo last week and explained to RadarOnline that he picked the dragon because it has all the symbols of the zodiac.

Jon has been showing off his new back art to everyone and he even says his eight little Gosselins are huge fans of his new tatt.

“They love it and they think it’s cool,” says Jon.

While Jon was busy getting tatted up, Kate was running all over their hometown of Reading, PA wearing very low cut tops. It seems they are both acting extremely different than what we are used to seeing.

Jon G, we’re not too sure why you thought it was necessary to get a gigantic tattoo of a dragon on your back. Maybe you were jealous of the girl with the dragon tattoo? We kid, but no seriously, what were you thinking!?

This guy is so scummy!

WHY JON WOULD WANT A TATTOO THAT AT FIRST LOOK LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE ONES INTESTINES AFTER THE SKIN AND FAT IS PULLED BACK – UGH!!!! I DON’T KNOW. OF COURSE HIS KIDS THINK IT’S CUTE. 6 AND 9 YEAR OLDS THINK EXPELLING GAS IS FUNNY AS A WHOLE LOT OF OTHER CRUDE THINGS ARE. I CAN THINK OF MANY OTHER MUCH MORE VALUABLE THINGS FOR HIS KIDS JON COULD HAVE DONE WITH THAT 14 HRS PLUS THE DOLLARS. OH WELL.NEXT COMES A MAJOR CRITICISM OF KATE. WHOLE FOODS ONE WAS QUITE SEVERE ENOUGH.

DUMB DUMB DUMB This person cannot pay child support, but can get this hugh dragon tattoo. Tattoo’s can be very expensive. One this big certainly was. Yeah the children are going to like it. They are children. Children get into things like this.
Kate is bustting her ______ to take care of everything, mortgage, food, etc. this nut goes out & does this. Boy he is a real Dad. NOT. Go back under ground Jon. No one wants to see you. This will not get you the positive attention you want.

I don’t like the tattoo either, but Kate is not busting her *** off or she wouldn’t be spending the entire day at a tanning saloon, DWTS a weeks ago or getting plastic surgery. They are BOTH not behaving like very good parents at the moments in MY opinion. But I only know what the media shows…And who knows if that is true!
