1. How To Immortalize A Mid-Life Crisis
We get that this person could not stop the urge of getting a tattoo of Britney Spears, but why the bald head? Did this person know that she shaved her head during a breakdown? It is probably not the right moment to immortalize a celebrity.
For argument's sake, let's just suppose that Britney agrees to be immortalized in ink. Even then, she probably wouldn't have chosen this portrait.
2. Not-So-Smooth Michael Jackson
At first, we thought it was some random dude tattoo. Thankfully, the exaggerated nose and the initials MJ gave us a clue. This person wanted the world to know about their love for Michael Jackson and now we're thinking it would have been better if they had thrown out or burnt up that tattoo money.
It seems like the tattoo artist was trying to go for abstract drawing or he/she wasn't good as they advertised. Was the tattoo artist a 5-year old boy?
3. The Tattoo Is Screaming for Help
Dear God, all humans are sorry for this person's poor attempt of paying tribute to legendary Marilyn Monroe.
That is just HORRIFYING! Maybe the tattoo artist thought Marilyn was a big-time horror movie fan.
4. This Looks Like Something Out Of Brad Pitt's Nightmares
This super incredible portrait of Angelina Jolie is winning hearts. It is so amazing that we are making a GoFundMe page to collect money so this person can have it laser removed.
As we know that Jennifer Aniston was married to Brad Pitt before he left her for Angelia Jolie, maybe she was the tattoo artist (that would make a lot of sense).
5. Tupac, The Unicorn
Maybe this person is a fan of Tupac and is also fascinated by Unicorns. We can’t understand the reason behind getting this tattoo.
The face isn't bad as it resembles the famous rapper, but it's just absurd about the horn and hooves.
6. NOT So Incredible Hulk
It was a "That's Enough Internet for Today" moment for us after watching this barbarous act in the name of a tattoo, but then we realized that this person usually covers it up with a shirt.
There are lots of Hulkamaniacs out in the world, but none of them are able to top this guy's enthusiasm!
7. Hey Avril Lavigne, Its Complicated To Explain
It is impossible for anyone to see the likeness between Avril Lavigne and this horrible tattoo.
It seems like someone still needs to "Get Over It," it being the singer’s peak days. At least we can admire this person's commitment to staying a loyal fan of the singer.
8. Do You Need More Convincing To Get a Mr. Bean Tattoo?
If you want to get a tattoo and can't decide, we urge you (sorry, we're begging you) to get a Mr. Bean tattoo without giving it a second thought.
After looking at this tattoo, you want to ask yourself, "Why wouldn't I want a tattoo of Mr. Bean? I am not stupid enough to miss out on such an opportunity."
9. Oh Heck NO!!!
This Napoleon Dynamite tattoo is only good for two purposes: to make you smile and feel a bit sorry for this person.
Fans of the 2004 cult classic movie Napoleon Dynamite might collect money for this guy's tattoo laser removal treatment. That wouldn't be shocking.
10. Kristen Steward Likely Approves Of It
Ladies and gentlemen, one lesson you learn from this tattoo is to think before you ink.
This fan tattoo of Robert Pattinson from Twilight just turned out as great as the actor's relationship with Kristen Stewart.
11. A Tribute That Wasn't Needed
We get that this person wanted to pay tribute to English singer and songwriter Amy Winehouse, but was it really needed?
We are pretty sure even Amy wouldn't have liked this unflattering tattoo. It seems like the tattoo artist didn’t know about the late singer.
12. An INKredibly Blasphemous Tattoo
We know this person wanted to get a tattoo, but why drag poor Jesus into such a mess. Why did this person do it? Didn't he suffer enough that he had to tolerate this now?
This person needs to go to church after getting this tattoo removed. Please do it!
13. This Is Our "Top Pick"
This person used to pick their nose while growing up. Maybe that habit has turned into an obsession, we don't know for sure.
We think this tattoo is of Sergio Pizzorno from the rock band Kasabian. If you think we are wrong, then send us your guess.
14. Stephen Hawking Tattoo On A LEG
The text on the tattoo reads: "He's not the messiah, he's a very naughty boy." It is a quote taken from Monty Python's cult film Life Of Brian.
As expected, the tattoo caused a stir in the tattoo world and even won two trophies at conventions. The person who got the tattoo said, "I respect him in quite a few different ways.”
15. We Will…We Will Scare You
The late, great frontman for Queen, Freddie Mercury, deserved better than this horrifying tattoo. We appreciate the attempt, but it needs to go.
For the safety of others around this person, we can only hope that the tattoo can be easily covered up. Or else, it will leave many children and adults traumatized for life.
16. Please Put Him In Jail
One die-hard fan of Judge Judy decided to get her tattoo onto themselves and we are left with one question that might not let us sleep at night: WHY???
So we can't judge anyone, but does he mean that only she gets to judge us? Who gives her the right to judge us? We need answers!
17. Christopher Walken Did a Zombie Movie? Really?
Did Christopher Walken act in a zombie movie or TV show called The Walken Dead? The actor once said, “If you know how quickly people forget the dead, you would stop living to impress people.” But he didn’t mean that this person should get a tattoo of a dead, human-eating zombie Christopher Walken.
We believe that Christopher Walken has one of the most iconic voices in Hollywood history, along with Morgan Freeman and the late Alan Rickman. We remember that he played the role of the Headless Horseman in Sleepy Hollow, but did he work in a zombie movie? The tattoo is awful!
18. We Couldn't Agree More
Although the tattoo is bad, at least Comic Book Guy acknowledges that he is part of a horrible inking job.
As if the tattoo wasn’t bad enough, we feel sorry for those people who have to watch this tattoo. Who are these people? Do they take a second opinion before getting a tattoo?
19. Oh Baby, Baby, Why?
This just looks like a person in a prison jumpsuit. For a moment, we thought this person was a fan of the American comedy-drama streaming television series Orange Is The New Black.
By the way, this tattoo does not belong to a fan of Justin Bieber (or you can say a Belieber). In reality, someone lost a bet and had to get this horrifically embarrassing tattoo.
20. A Tattoo That Deserves a Punch
Mike Tyson is one of the greatest knockout punchers in the history of professional boxing. It is sad someone did this and isn't feeling ashamed.
We wonder what Mike Tyson would do to this guy if he finds out about the tattoo. Are you secretly hoping Mike does find this guy?
21. Guide 101 On How To Get a Selfie With Drake
Although it is not a portrait, we couldn't control the temptation to include it.
After many failed attempts of trying to get a selfie with Drake, she came up with a foolproof plan. Now Drake can't escape from her. Guess who's a fool now?
22. One of a Kind Tattoo
The late Patrick Swayze was a one-of -a-kind person, and so is this tattoo. Given that he was named by People magazine as its Sexiest Man Alive in 1991, this tattoo looks more absurd.
This person wanted to immortalize the American actor in a unique way. Is it good or bad? We let you be the judge of that.
23. Winning, Really? More Like Losing Respect
Some of you may say it isn't that bad. Some of you may totally love it. We will not judge you but we cannot promise that we will like you either.
The person who got this tattoo might not have tiger blood or winning it, but he surely has immortalized this epic piece of art. Only time will tell who’s winning when he applies for a job.
24. Hey Steve Buscemi, We Love You
Hey, we do agree that Steve Buscemi has a really unique face, but this is taking things a bit too far. We honestly love the actor. He is also a great human being. Before becoming an actor, he was a firefighter.
On 9/11, he returned to his job as a New York firefighter and searched for survivors. He worked full 12-hour shifts for many days along with other firefighters.
25. Why So Ugly?
Heath Ledger is, without any doubt, the best Joker ever. He represented chaos and anarchy so effortlessly and made us all fall in love with the Joker. So, it is obvious that many fans tried to ink the portrait of the actor.
However, this attempt is simply poor execution of what could've been a cool tattoo. At least it will put a smile on anyone's face who sees it.
26. Is It John Lennon or Harry Potter?
As die-hard fans of Harry Potter, we don’t find this tattoo bad at all. You know why? It is because this tattoo is of John Lennon. Fans of John should feel offended by it, not us.
Just imagine if the wizards looked like the tattoo. That would’ve been really funny.
27. Joker + Venom = Taking It Too Far
This person seems like a fan of both Joker and Venom, and couldn't decide which tattoo to get. So, he went with a mixture that the world didn't need.
As if 2020 wasn't bad enough, we didn't want to see it in 2021. It looks like one of the Joker's plans went wrong and he and turned into Venom!
28. We Feel Sorry for Poor Freddy
Freddy, you were great and we are sorry for disappointing you. The tattoo artist clearly didn't know much about you or didn't like your style of singing.
The tattoo artist missed the mark and the altered photo on the right is spot on. It is hilarious and who knows Freddy would have liked it as well (RIP you beauty).
29. Just Start Saving Money for Laser Removal
This guy got a tattoo of O. J. Simpson, yeah the infamous American former football running back, actor, broadcaster, and CONVICTED FELON. He was tried for the murder of his former wife and her friend. He was sentenced to 33 years' imprisonment.
This person seems like a diehard supporter of Simpson. From the looks of it, he is not planning to remove it anytime soon.
30. Tattoo Inception
This is the poster of a new movie titled Inception 2: The Story of Hulk Hogan. When you see that Hulk Hogan tattoo has a tattoo of Hulk Hogan, you can be pretty sure that the person involved in creating this tattoo was not in their best state of mind.
It could have become a cool Hulk Hogan tattoo, but the tattoo artist was like, "Hey bro, I got a mind-blowing creative idea." The guy getting the tattoo was like, "Really bro? Surprise me!"
31. Happy 99th Birthday
Betty White, a renowned American actress, comedian, and author celebrated her 99th birthday in January this year. We would have really liked it if this fan had celebrated it with a normal tattoo of her.
But no, this person wanted to take it to the next level. How on earth is bursting out of someone's skin cool? Please enlighten us!
32. Prince of Darkness
Why does Prince look like he is about to suck someone's blood? He looks like a vampire hunting for its next prey.
Hey, we do appreciate the attempt but there is a thin line between creativity and overdoing something. We hope the tattoo artist learned something from this experience.
33. Leave Marilyn Monroe Alone, Please
As if Marilyn Monroe didn't have enough problems, this guy jumped in with a tattoo that doesn't even 0.0000001% look like the actress.
It would be a shame if this person goes to the beach with the same tattoo. Hey, get it removed as soon as possible.
34. That's Not Creativity
Are there any fans of Thom Yorke here? Please tell this person that the main vocalist and songwriter of the rock band Radiohead doesn't have one eye and a single nipple on his face.
This person thought it would look funny, but it is plain disturbing. Maybe this tattoo is inspired by Radiohead's famous song “I’m a creep. I’m a weirdooo." What are your thoughts on this one?
35. Showing Margaret Thatcher's Soft Side
Although Margaret Thatcher was known as the Iron Lady, someone came up with a bizarre idea of representing her as a cheerful ice cream cone.
Maybe this person wanted to show others the soft side of the Former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.
36. A Tattoo Disaster of Titanic Proportions
We can understand that this person is a big fan of Celine Dion, but it would have been best if they had expressed their love for the singer in some other way.
The hair alone is enough to make this person Google "tattoo laser removal near me."
37. Let The Guessing Game Begin
We will tell you shortly who this celebrity is, but think of the first actor that comes to your mind after looking at this tattoo.
Well, this is Robert Pattinson in Twilight. He is holding an apple or rose (honestly, we don't really know).
38. Don't Think Too Much, She's Kim Kardashian
We could have made you struggle hard to figure this one out, but we are not monsters.
Someone had a huge crush on her and decided to get a tattoo of the famous American media personality, model, socialite, stylist, businesswoman, producer, and actress.
39. Did You Figure Out That's Barack Obama?
We know that the president's term is only for eight years, but this super terrifying tattoo of Barack Obama is for life. You have to get this kind of tattoo if you want to scare kids and even adults!
We can just hope that this person always tries to cover the poor portrait attempt of Barack Obama.
40. Sadly, Money Does Talk
We feel bad for Benjamin Franklin after seeing this tattoo. It is good that he isn't alive to see someone tattooed his face on their skin.
If we're being honest here, this looks more like a burn victim rather than the Founding Father of America.
41. Please Leave Marilyn Alone
Here is another failed tattoo of Marilyn Monroe. When will people leave her alone? What a shame!
As her fans, it is so sad to see her get butchered by some people time and time again when it comes to tattoos.
42. M&M or Eminem?
We cannot decide on this one. Is this a smurf? Or rapper Eminem? Or just blue M&M's? Maybe it is a mixture of all of them.
Some people may find it hilarious as it shows this person likes to hear Eminem while eating M&M's.
43. As Bad As It Gets
You may have not agreed with some of the tattoos on our list, but you cannot deny the fact that this one sucks big time.
If this person had gone with a goose, we may have established some sort of connection between Goose and Gosling, but this is completely unacceptable.
44. Thankfully, They At Least Wrote His Name
If it wasn't for the name under the tattoo, it would have been almost impossible to identify the celebrity.
As there is no denying Muhammad Ali is widely regarded as one of the greatest boxers of all time. But why have a tattoo that people can't even recognize?
45. That's Ellen DeGeneres!
As we are the ones with sane minds, we just hope that Ellen DeGeneres never gets to see this horrendous tattoo, ever.
At first, we thought it is a tattoo of Owen Wilson. It is unrecognizable and we have just one question to ask: where is the undo button?
