Tattoos have a long history within various cultures as tribal symbolism, to mark status, to identify slaves, to tell stories and express yourself and to remember that all inclusive to Magaluf with the girls #09. For some, the art of tattooing has made leaps and bounds since those found on the body of Otzi the Iceman, who landed his ink between 3370 and 3100 BC. Celebrities are now synonymous with the ancient art and the different interpretations can be staggering. There\u2019s ink that makes you think, there\u2019s tats that make you daft and well some of it\u2026is just god damn sexy. Here are some of the best men’s celebrity tattoos!<\/p>\n
You can take your pick of pretty much any of David Beckham\u2019s 40+ tattoo\u2019s, but his recent \u2018Bird\u2019s of Prey\u2019 neck ink is a touch of class, from the one they call Golden Balls. We can thank David for his right foot, his smoldering eye contact and his responsibility in inspiring lads round the UK to attempt to replicate his look, from hair to tats \u2013 for better or worse. David Beckham has men’s celebrity tattoos that every celeb guy wants to pull off.<\/p>\n
Tom Hardy is an incredible actor, lovable rogue and a canvas of pretty bad-boy tattoos\u2026in that order. Ranging from traditional religious symbolism, to a leprechaun for his Irish heritage, to \u2018Padro Fierco\u2019 (meaning proud father on his right chest) and his wife\u2019s name Charlotte on his shoulder. Tom Hardy\u2019s tattoos are a series of personal stories, permanently etched to his body for the world to perceive. Plus it\u2019s Tom Hardy\u2026he could have \u2018REGRET NOHING\u2019 on the back of his knee and it would be better than you.<\/p>\n
Say what you will about this cargo-pant-wearing-loose-tounged-lover-boy, his tattoo\u2019s rock harder than you in the shower, sat listening to Free Fallin\u2019 thinking about your ex. A Japanese artist named Horimitsu penned John\u2019s sleeve through traditional methods in Japan. This tattoo is \u2018tapped\u2019 onto the skin and required a vetting process to prove his worth for the procedure. He spent nearly two months getting it \u2018hammered\u2019 which caused him to trip balls\u2026 beautiful, brilliant balls. \u2018I was hallucinating\u2026beautiful, brilliant hallucinations,\u2019 said Mayer during an interview on Fuse. The results were pretty beautiful too Mr Mayer.<\/p>\n
Adam Levine – Whole Body<\/strong><\/p>\n Adam Levine, Maroon 5 frontman and professional mummy pleaser is loaded with quality ink. Levine has always had us eyes closed, quivering at the falsetto on \u2018She Will be Loved\u2019 and to be honest, his ink has the same effect. Who hasn\u2019t imagined that right-armed tiger tat wrapped around your waist on a late-night walk home? Who hasn\u2019t imagined that tiger holding the door open for you as you skip past, feeling nervous yet safe? Who hasn\u2019t imagined that arm thudding and strumming away with incredible rhythm on your guitar?<\/p>\n Was this picture taken the last time Nial saw Zayn, poking out of his limo window, speeding into the night? Let’s hope so.\u00a0Zayn Malik ditched 1D to amp up his solo career and has since emerged with various hairstyles, lots of tattoos and some music. The pinnacle of his solo efforts can be found on his middle finger, with a glow in the dark light-sabre tattoo. This is one of the more simple men’s celebrity tattoos.<\/span><\/p>\n Justin Bieber – Ab Ink<\/strong><\/p>\n With religious symbolism and animals a plenty\u2013 the Biebs\/J Bone\/Purple Passion\/Jay Bee or just straight up Jay-Bob\u2019s rate of tattoos has exploded over the last few years. Since his \u2018Son Of God\u2019 stomach tattoo in November 2016, he\u2019s totally covered his (quite frankly, perfect) abdominals by the hand of tattoo artist Bang Bang. For some, this may be a rare moment where Justin has let you down. Apart from the drink driving and assault charges. It’s an undeniable shame to cover up that taut a midriff with ink, but hey it\u2019s too late now to say sorry. This is one of our favourite men’s celebrity tattoos.<\/p>\n Tattoos have a long history within various cultures as tribal symbolism, to mark status, to identify slaves, to tell stories and express yourself and to remember that all inclusive to Magaluf with the girls #09.
