Angelina Jolie’s Tattoos
4/27/2006At some point and time Angelina Jolie’s tattoos have gotten media attention. She often adds or changes some of the tattoos she already has. Angelina has said that all the tattoos she posses have a special meaning. Here is a description of Angelina Jolie’s tattoos and what they are about.
- the letter H (for her brother James Haven) on the inside of her left wrist.
- "A prayer for the wild at heart, kept in cages" (Tennessee Williams) on her left forearm.
- a large prayer for her son Maddox on her left shoulder which covers up the Chinese "death" tattoo.
- two pointy black tribals on the lower parts of her back.
- Quod me nutrit me destruit (Latin for "What nourishes me also destroys me") several inches below her navel, became prominent after her pregancy announcement.
- a tilted Latin cross on the lower left of her abdomen.
- a large Asian tiger on her back.
- a dragon under the tiger.
- XIII (number 13 in Roman numerals) on her left forearm.
- Arabic for "strength of will." (???????) on her right forearm.
- "know your rights" just under her neck between her shoulders.
Lasered/Covered:
- a dragon on her left arm (she has been lasering it for some months now but it can still be faintly seen).
- "Billy Bob", the name of her former husband Billy Bob Thornton, on her left arm (like the dragon, it is still somewhat visible despite having been in the process of removal for a long time).
- a Chinese character for courage now covered by the Tennessee Williams quote.
- a Chinese character for death (?) now covered by the prayer for her son.
- a tattoo both Billy Bob Thornton and Angelina had a copy of. It was on her right forearm, now covered by the "strength of will" tattoo.
- a dragon she got in Amsterdam while drunk, now covered by the latin cross.
- a window on her lower back. On 'Inside the Actors Studio', she explained that she covered this tattoo, because, while she used to spend all of her time staring through windows wishing to be outside, she now lives there all of the time.
Angelina Jolie’s tattoos are a reflection of who she is. Each tattoo she has tells a story or indicates a special moment or event in her life. Jolie has gone on record as saying that a positive effect resulting from the large number of tattoos on her body is that, while she is not opposed to film nudity, filmmakers have been forced to become more creative when plotting any nude or love scenes involving her.
