The exact number of tattoos on Angelina Jolie's body is unknown. In addition, their number is constantly changing: the actress adds new tattoos, removes old ones, overlaps several images with one large drawing. This star is the leader of the list of "most tattooed celebrities".
Angelina Jolie's main tattoos
Angelina uses tattoos as amulets or reminders of important events for her. Each image on her body has a special meaning and plays a special role. Finally, among her tattoos there are several drawings that symbolize rebelliousness to fate and the confidence that each person himself determines the course of his life.
Jolie made a very original tattoo on her left shoulder: the coordinates of the birth of all her children, including the adopted ones, are indicated there. This is one of the signs of love for children, demonstrated by Angelina. She does not forget about her mother: in her honor, Jolie tattooed the letter M on her palm. Finally, the letter h on her wrist is a reminder of the actress's brother, James Haven.
Angelina's right arm under the elbow is tattooed with an Arabic word meaning "determination", and in the same place on her left hand there is a Chinese character for "courage" and the words "Prayer for wild hearts locked in cages" in English. In the lower part of the abdomen there is an inscription in Latin, which means "What feeds me, then destroys."
Jolie's lower back features a Bengal tiger and a Buddhist prayer to protect humans. These two tattoos are one of the strongest amulets that the actress uses, and not a reminder of anything or someone, unlike many other images on her body. On Jolie's left shoulder there is another amulet designed to protect her adopted son from Cambodia. Angelina's upper back is adorned with an inscription in English that translates as "Know your rights."
Jolie's erased and temporary tattoos
Angelina's first tattoo was a hieroglyph meaning "death". He was depicted above the left shoulder blade of the actress and stayed with her for a long time, but over time, Jolie decided to get rid of the tattoo and covered it with another pattern.
In the lower abdomen of the actress, a dragon was previously impaled, but later Jolie remade this tattoo, turning it into a black cross. The image of a mythical creature appeared on Angelina's body during her first marriage, which, alas, was unsuccessful. To erase at least some of the reminders of marriage to Johnny Lee Miller, Jolie got rid of the tattoo. She did the same with a tattoo located on the elbow of her right arm and dedicated to another lover of the actress - Bill Bob Thornton. Another tattoo, with the name Billy, Angelina had to remove with the help of laser therapy.
