Can you match the celebrity with the tattoo?

From ‘felt-tip’ style collections to matching wedding vows and shocking blackout body art, MailOnline takes a look at the stars’ most controversial inkings.

While some tattoos hold a deeper sentimental meaning, others are simply ‘for fun’ or because it is ‘cool’.

Some celebrities hold an extensive collection of over 40 tattoos and are completely covered head-to-toe, while others have just a single ink.

Known for standing out from the crowds, many celebrities have become synonymous with their famous, or rather infamous, tattoos.

From famous nepo babies, to iconic singers and professional footballers… Can you match the celebrity with the tattoo?

Chest covered in black ink

Fans got a bit of a shock when this hitmaker unveiled his brand new body art on Tuesday.

The American rapper, 33, who has a very famous fiancée Megan Fox, showcased the dramatic new look which covered his entire upper torso.

Before the inking, the singer had a chest full of different tattoos but decided to cover it in black ink for ‘spiritual purposes’.

The black ink envelops his upper body, while a few of his original tattoos can still be seen through paneled gaps along his arms and within the cross symbol etched across his chest.

The painful procedure, which required ’44 needles’, also had a ‘spiritual consultation’ with his tattoo artist before diving into the process.

It’s… Machine Gun Kelly!

Bloody saw blade

This singer, 28, is well-known for his controversial face tattoos on his forehead, undereye, cheeks, neck and body.

But this saw blade wheel with pouring blood is perhaps the most notable among his other sentimental inks.

The ink, which he got on his cheek in 2020, has no hidden meaning behind the tattoo compared to his other ones.

He got his barbed wire tattoo on his forehead simply because it ‘looked cool’, he previously told GQ.

His DDP initials hold a deeper meaning for his daughter, while a suit of blackjack cards were tattooed on just ‘for fun’.

Have you guessed? It’s… Post Malone! 

‘Till death’… ‘Do us part’

A former Love Island star, 32, and a professional footballer, 30, spontaneously got matching tattoos on their wedding night after their ceremony last summer.

The married couple got the phrase ‘Till Death Do Us Part’ inked on their arms by top tattoo artist Pablo.

The famous duo wed at luxury five-star hotel Bulgari in Knightsbridge in June 2023 and marked their wedding with the striking new tattoos.

The star previously shared how her hen party took a wild turn when she ended up in a tattoo parlour after a raucous night out.

While her crazy girls’ trip tattoo is a simple heart on her arm, her matching tattoo with her husband could be her most meaningful. 

Can you guess what couple have this iconic ink?

It’s… Olivia Attwood and Bradley Dack!

‘Felt-tip’ style tattoo 

This singer, 33, holds an extensive ‘felt-tip’ style tattoo collection, stretching a 60 strong collection of drawings.

His tattoo’s consists of cartoon penguin Pingu, a Heinz Ketchup label, a gingerbread man, a teddy bear and a lion.

In total, the artist has spent more than 40 hours getting inked by Derby-based tattooist Kevin Paul.

While fans rage that his inks are ‘s**t’, even his long-time pal Kevin weighed in on the Grammy winner’s colourful collection in a previous interview with The Mirror. 

He said: ‘I agree with most of it, his tattoos aren’t very good. And I take the p**s out of Ed all the time, when I’m with him, that they are s**t.’

It’s… Ed Sheeran!

Red roses covering entire bottom

A Girls Aloud bandmate hit headlines when she unveiled her massive new tattoo, a giant rose inking which covers her lower back and bottom.

In a statement red, the body art is impossible to miss – and cost the same amount as a small car, according to the hitmaker.

While many were convinced she’d come to regret the choice, the former band-member fought for this one – sharing that the decision was part of a ‘f*** it* list she had made.

The controversial ink took 15 hours in total to complete and was believed to be £250 an hour, putting the overall cost at £3,750.

Her tattoo covers up a previous butterfly design on her lower back as well as a single rose on her bum and a bird.

Other designs on the star, include a tribal etching along the side of her right hand, a now-removed inking reading ‘Mrs C’ following her marriage to Ashley Cole and barbed wire around her thigh. 

It’s… Cheryl! 

Father-son matching Jesus tattoo

The son of a former England footballer recently got a new ink for his 19th birthday to match his father, whom got it in 2010.

The father-son duo’s body art is a portrait of Jesus sitting down. The famous footballer has the ink on his right hip, while his son got it on his left.

His choice of image is based on a painting called The Man Of Sorrows by Catholic artist Matthew R. Brooks and is believed to be another tribute to his grandfather Joe, who passed away aged 83 the year before. 

Speaking about how he chooses his designs, the iconic star has explained: ‘They’re about the important people in my life, who I want to have with me always.’ 

The Man of Sorrows inking was done by London-based fine line artist Pablo, who is known as @certifiedletterboy on social media. 

It’s… Cruz Beckham and his father David Beckham!
