Girls actress and director Lena Dunham is not shy about sharing her body art. She posted nearly nude on Instagram in order to show off massive newly inked masterpieces upon her milky canvas. It’s empowering, in her opinion, inking her skin. “I think it gives me a sense of control and ownership of a body that’s often beyond my control,” she stated in the post.
In a gesture to empower women and girls, she went so far as to design a tattoo for super-fan Tina Wargo. The fan tweeted Dunham to hand-write the title of the third episode of Girls and send it to her. Dunham appropriated a paper napkin and scripted the design: “all adventurous women do”. Stylish and edgy.
Zoe Saldana Has A Little Star Too
She also has her husband’s face needled into a hidden spot near her ribcage. Saldana wanted to keep it private, the "Guardian of the Galaxy" star told host James Corden on "The Late Late Show."
Irishman and tattoo artist Mark Mahoney provided the service, as well as the tattoo of her face her husband’s been sporting for years. But the star. Dainty and glamorous, you’ll find it tucked into her ankle just above the heel.
Rita Ora's Feather Tat Story
Rita Ora has a lot of tattoos inked by the most prominent artists. Mark Mahoney needled in, with exquisite detail, one of her favorites topping her spine. Bang Bang inked the stylish feather tattoo into the side of her hand, and then the British singer, songwriter, and actress had him refashion it into a classy rose.
According to an interview at iHeart Radio, she had gotten matching feather tats with an old boyfriend and then regretted it. “At the time, I was dating a guy with loads of tattoos, and I was like, ‘Wee, let’s get tattoos!’ Now regret it, but it all has a story.”
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley's Floating Heart
Victoria's Secret supermodel Rosie Huntington-Whiteley keeps it simple and elegant.
One of her slight assortment of classy body art selections traces a delicate heart outline inked onto her wrist. Subdued. Sweet.
The Coolest Tattoo Goes To Emma Stone
It’s pretty cool symbolizing a rare Beatles tune with ink-drawn markings, but Emma Stone’s design was personally drawn by the legendary singer of the song. Sir Paul McCartney himself sketched the adorable blackbird feet for Emma Stone. It was a heartwarming cause.
Emma chose the song “Blackbird” from The White Album because it’s a favorite of her mom’s, so they both had the original drawing tattooed on matching wrists to celebrate mom’s triumphant victory over cancer.
