Amber Rose loves to show off her body art! Her over 20 tattoos include her sons’ names on her forehead.

Reacting to the backlash in Oct. 2020, the former dancer told Us Weekly, “Not everybody is gonna get a face tat. That’s what separates me from them.”

“I don’t live my life for other people. … If I let people affect me in that way, I would just be miserable every day. I wouldn’t be the great mom that I am. I would be depressed and I would be filled with anxiety,” she went on.

Explaining why with Seth Meyers in May 2021, he said, “I didn’t think that they would put me in stuff — like the movie business. I thought after SNL, it’s a wrap. People don’t realize, I’m kinda old — I’m 27, but in Hollywood, that’s like 40.”

The tattoo is in German and translates to, “Confess to yourself in the deepest hour of the night whether you would have to die if you were forbidden to write. Dig deep into your heart, where the answer spreads its roots in your being, and ask yourself solemnly, Must I write?”

Scarlett Johansson has quite a few tattoos. She has a number of them on her back!

Apparently, it was the Oscar-winning actress’ idea for the ‘Avengers’ cast to get matching ink. Robert Downey Jr. told Entertainment Weekly in 2018, “Five of the original six Avengers got a tattoo. And the sixth was the tattoo artist, who gave it to five of us, the one who opted out being Mark Ruffalo.”

“It was Johansson’s idea, and she and [Chris] Evans did it in New York. Then, their New York guy, Josh Lord, who is amazing, flew out to Los Angeles, he did me, did [Jeremy] Renner, and then we just bullied [Chris] Hemsworth into doing it, and he got it.”

Angelina Jolie makes an appearance at the ‘Maleficent: Mistress of Evil’ film premiere in London, UK on Oct. 09, 2019. Angelina is wearing a sparkly, ethereal gown with her elemental Buddhist tattoos peeking out from the backside of the dress. 

Angelina’s left arm is full of a list of geographical coordinates, which she originally got to cover the area she got ex-husband Billy Bob Thornton’s name lasered off of.

She said at the time, “I’ll never be stupid enough to have a man’s name tattooed on me again. It took 5 visits to the tattoo removal clinic to erase the dragon and you can still see it a bit.”

The cover up would mark the coordinates of the birthplaces of her children. She added a 7th set in 2011, supposedly for now-ex Brad Pitt.
