Miley Cyrus’ New Tattoo Is A Cross

Miley Cyrus was spotted recently with a bandage on her hand near her middle finger and we could all guess that it was yet another tattoo. She seems to be making the most of adulthood and getting lots of tattoos. The latest reports indicate that Miley took a break from shooting, her next movie, So Undercover and went to get a new tattoo at Eye Candy Tattoo is New Orleans where she apparently got a tattoo of a cross.

We already know that she has "Just Breathe" as a tattoo under her breast and a "love" tattoo on her ear.


We’ll find out soon what it looks like but a tattoo for Christmas is a nice treat from Santa!

Face Tattoo

If you go for a bold face tattoo, then you've got a pretty good idea that keeping a low profile won't be easy. So how do you hide from the police with a large very distinctive face tattoo? The answer is: you don't!
The man with a "480" face tattoo has been arrested by the police shortly after going into hiding. It prove to difficult to keep a low profile and hide away with such a distinctive tattoo.

Johnny "Irish" McNeel was captured less than 24 hours after he tried to shoot a police officer in the USA. It was only going to be a matter of time with a large "480" tattoo on his chin. The gunman had recently got out of prison but he will be going straight back after pulling the trigger on a police officer. The gun jammed and the officer was not hurt in the incident. I guess he would have found it very difficult to stay away from the authorities for too long. In other word, if you're considering a criminal career, then a face tattoo is best avoided.

The man's tattoo is an homage to the local area 480 area code.

X Factor- Cher Lloyd celebrates with a new tattoo

Controversial X Factor contestant Cher Lloyd has announced she is going to celebrate her new singing career with another tattoo. Cher Lloyd may have been knocked out of the X Factor final on Saturday night but she’s not walking away empty handed. It has been leaked that Black Eyed Pea star Will.i.am has already offered Cher a recording contract. She will take part of the X Factor tour for the next few months and then will be able to start recoring her own album with the help of Will.i.am and Cheryl Cole. She has made plenty of friends in the music industry and she's set to a great singing career.



Cher Lloyd already has 3 tattoos even if she not 18 yet. She had been talking about getting a new one for a while and celebrating her success on the X Factor seems like a good time to get another tattoo. She was initially going to get suggestions from fans to decide on the design for the new tattoo. However, she is more likely to get a tattoo to celebrate music and her X Factor 4th place.

The new tattoo is likely to be music related. Cher has already given some details saying that she want to get a lyric from her mum’s favourite song tattooed on her wrist. The lyrics say - All that you have is your soul. Certainly a great tattoo for someone like her who knows her own mind and does not like being told what to do or think. We look forward to seeing the new tattoo soon.

Tattoo and Text

We mostly associate tattoos with great design. It is art after all. But we sometimes forget there are great tattoos out there with text. This is one from Matt's website which I found amazing. The actual text of the tattoo is copied below. This tattoo is certainly a great inspiration to focus the attention on text and fonts and not just on design.

This is what it's all about:

Warning: If you are reading this then this warning is for you. Every word you read of this useless fine print is another second off your life. Don't you have other things to do? Is your life so empty that you honestly can't think of a better way to spend these moments? Or are you so impressed with authority that you give respect and credence to all that claim it? Do you read everything you're supposed to read? Do you think every thing you're supposed to think? Buy what you're told to want? Get out of your apartment. Meet a member of the opposite sex. Stop the excessive shopping and masturbation. Quit your job. Start a fight. Prove you're alive. If you don't claim your humanity you will become a statistic.
You have been warned- Tyler.

Tattoo and personality

How to you choose a tattoo design to represent your personality?

There’s isn’t a check list that you can follow or a reference book on tattoo that you can read. There isn’t a tattoo website that can tell you which tattoo design is right for you. You either know straight away what tattoo design is right for you or you need to think about it and get ideas.

If you are in the category of people who want a tattoo to represent who they are and what they like in life but are not sure about the design, you can follow a simple procedure to pick your tattoo design.

Are you religious?
You can have a look at various tattoo design representing your religion. If you are deeply religious and this means a lot to you, then you will be pleased with something that will show your faith to the world. It can be something obvious like a cross or it can be something a bit more unusual such as a few words from a prayer which means a lot to you.

Are you in love?
We also recommend avoiding tattooing the name of a girlfriend or boyfriend as relationships can break up and leave you with a tattoo you no longer want. But if you are in a long term relationship or if you want to illustrate your love for someone, then this can be a great way to be united for life. You need to remember that a tattoo is for life and it’s not the same with all relationships.

Are you a parent?
If you are a parent then your children certainly mean the world to you. You can create a great tattoo by playing with fonts and initials for first names or with the actual names if they are quite short. Be careful that long names such as Mary Elisabeth or Jean-Christophe don’t look so good on tattoos.

Do you have a pet?
If you love your pet and it’s a big part of your life, you can create a tattoo with a picture or a name.

Do you love your job?
If you have a trade which can be associated to a symbol, you can show the world who you are. A knife and fork for a chef, a knife for a butcher, a feather for a writer, a paint brush for an artist…. The list of trade tattoos is very long! Or a great tattoo for a cupcake decorator!




What are you passionate about?
If your hobby is a big part of your life, go and show it to the world with a tattoo. But if you change your hobby quite often or if you are young, then avoid doing this. You might not be a fan of your electric guitar in 20 years!

Justin Bieber Shows Off Tattoo

The young singer from Stratford, Ontario has been showing off his tattoo. But is he too young to have a tattoo? Well, he would be too young to have a tattoo in the UK as he is under 18. But we all know he's a very mature young man.

The teen singing sensation revealed the tattoo when he went to the beach. The tattoo is on his lower stomach. It is quite small and it's a little bird flying off? Maybe a way to express a wish for freedom?


It is believed the tattoo was done at Son of a Gun Tattoo Parlor in Toronto, Canada.

Spider Man Fan gets Spider Tattoo

Clearly, we all love Spider Man but you 'll have to really love spiders to get a large spider tattoo like this !



The basket ball star is Darren Moore, a 6-3 senior guard for UC Irvine, and, you would have guessed, a Spider Man fan. He's been a huge fan of Spider Man, mainly the comic books, since he was young. And he translated this into an awesome tattoo and certainly, a very unique tattoo in basketball.

Darren Moore also likes to draw and loves art and he helped design the spider tattoo and the web. He had been thinking about this for a while and wanted a tattoo quite unique.

A friend of his recommend to do the tattoo on the chest, where he still had space and soon after, he was in the tattoo shop getting it done. It was painful but worth it!

Now, some of the fans watching him play basketball call him Spider Man or Spidey.

Darren Moore got his first tattoo when he was 18 years old. It was a "God’s Child" cross design on his right arm. Since then, tattoos have become a passion and it really suits him. He's great at art and at basketball and we'll be seeing more of him!
