Celebrities are known for expressing themselves and not shying away from body art. Some of your favorite artists have whole collections of tattoos, each with a different meaning.

Here are some of the most unique, coolest, craziest celeb tattoos:

Zayn Malik's glow in the dark light saber tattoo

Star Wars fans will covet Zayn Malik's lightsaber tattoo. It actually glows in the dark!

Ed Sheeran's lion tattoo

Ed Sheeran made a bold move with this lion chest piece. While some fans questioned if the ink was some sort of practical joke, he swears the king of the jungle tattoo is quite real.

 

Hilary Duff's rose tattoo

Hilary Duff has plenty of body art, and we are definitely digging this feminine ink she has on her bicep. It was done by Dr. Woo, a favorite celebrity tattoo artist.

 

Katy Perry's SuperBowl tattoo

Katy Perry put plenty of blood, sweat, and tears into getting ready for her 2015 SuperBowl halftime show. But when the final note was over and Left Shark had been dismissed, the popstar left with a more permanent reminder of the performance. She got inked in honor of the occasion.

 

Drake's tattoo of Lil Wayne

It's one thing to pay tribute to your friends by creating an Instagram collage for them on their birthday, but Drake just took it to a whole new level when he got a picture of Lil Wayne's face tattooed on his arm. It makes your social media shoutouts look measly in comparison, you know?

 

Demi Lovato's lion tattoo

Lions seem to be a big theme among tattooed celebrities. Demi Lovato is another star to have the powerful cat inked on her. She has this realistic picture tattooed on her hand.

Ryan Cabrera's Ryan Gosling tattoo

Perhaps the weirdest tattoo of the bunch is Ryan Cabrera's tattoo of Ryan Gosling. He explains that he got it while playing "tattoo roulette" with friends, which sounds dangerous. During the game, you pick a tattoo for your friend and they do the same for you, but neither party can view or approve their new tattoo in advance. Hence why Cabrera ended up with the Hollywood heartthrob's face permanently placed on his body.

If you're in search of a little tattoo inspiration, maybe this will help. Or, in some cases, give you some ideas about exactly what NOT to do next time you're in the market for a new tattoo.
