Think before you ink

Just when you thought Brad and Ange had fallen into a heaping pit of ho-hum domesticity (did you see their en familia Halloween outing?), Brangelina reminds us why they’re still the king and queen of sexiness.

The Fight Club actor recently inked a series of lines across his back, and naturally every media outlet was scrambling to uncover the meaning behind the madness. Did they symbolize the lashings of Angie’s proverbial whip? Do the lines represent the years he’s already served in Prison Jolie-Pitt? Does Zahara really dig stripes? The answer is, of course, ‘D’, none of the above. Turns out when Brangelina gets bored, they design tattoos on each other. What, are they too good for Must-See-TV? Probably. Anyway, the night in question was after they both attended the World Economic Forum (zzzzzzzzzz).

According to Angie: "One night we didn't have anything to do, so I was drawing on his back. He just liked it. The picture everybody saw was kind of awkward, but it just lines up beautifully on his back, just enhances the part of the body I like. It's meaningful in that it has us making angles and shapes out of each other's body, that kind of a thing."
Yup, it sure sounds meaningful. But Brad Pitt isn’t the first celebrity to get a stupid tattoo. Not by a long shot. Here are the top three Tinseltown tattoo offences.
