50 Boldest Tattoo Fails
It’s no secret that tattoos are permanent. If someone is going to get inked, they are most likely aware of the fact that they’ll have that image on their body forever—unless they want to go through the painful and expensive process of laser removal. What some people might not know, however, is that it’s worth it—and highly recommended—to find a talented artist with good reviews and a clean shop.
Sometimes, tattoos are tacky on purpose. People have been known to get memes or jokes tattooed on their bodies. Maybe the “bad tattoo” is just something you regret, like an ex-lover’s name. Other times, the artist messes up so bad you can’t even tell what the tattoo was supposed to look like.
We’ve put together a collection of some of the worst tattoos you can find. These bad works of body art come in a variety of styles and sizes, ranging from small and shaky to big, wildly inaccurate portraits that don’t look anything like the person they’re modeled after. If you are ready to laugh, cringe, and be grateful these tattoos aren’t yours, then keep reading to see 50 of the boldest tattoo fails.
Scary...but not as scary as the real thing.
Did you know...
- Paris Hilton not only lives in a mansion, she also built a doghouse mansion for her Chihuahua. It's 300 square feet and includes air conditioning and heating. It comes decked out with designer furniture, a chandelier, a pink paint job, second-floor balcony, and enclosed "yard." It's not enough for you to live in luxury. Your dog must, as well.
- When Rihanna debuted her famous red locks in 2010 (around the same time she was featured on Eminem's "Love the Way You Lie"), she started a red-hair trend. Over the next twelve months, she changed her hairstyle 13 times—more than once a month! But that came at a pricey cost. Sources say the annual price tag came out to $1,168,000 on just her hair.
- Jennifer Aniston's star-defining role on friends started a hair craze in the 90s that even lasted into the early 2000s. Called "The Rachel," Aniston's shoulder-length haircut had grown-out bangs and highlights styled to perfection. A hairdresser in Detroit noted that at the peak of its popularity, 40% of her business was devoted to recreating "The Rachel." Too bad that it was notoriously difficult to maintain on your own at home.
- In February 2020, Jeff Bezos bought the most expensive property in California: a $165 million mansion. It was designed for Jack Warner (the former president of Warner Bros. entertainment company). It took a decade to construct (spanning the 1930s and 40s). It comes complete with 9 acres of Beverly Hills land, a main house, a guest house, a tennis court, a golf course, and terraces.
- After her role as First Lady came to an end, Jackie Kennedy went into the publishing business. She became an associate editor at Doubleday and worked mostly on autobiographies. In fact, she was one of two original editors for Michael Jackson's 2009 autobiography Moonwalk, a #1 New York Times bestseller.
