10 Celebrity Tattoos With Beautiful Hidden Meanings

This supermodel-turned-badass actor has tonnes of inked flesh to flaunt, but Cara's most subtly beautiful tattoo is that of a super delicate snake that slithers down her hand, from the edge of her palm to her middle finger.

The edgy animal ends with the word feral appearing at the end of its tail. It's a symbol of reinvention, shedding of old skin, new beginnings, new life.

The moving story behind Emma Stone’s custom-made bird’s footprint tattoo by Paul McCartney surpasses its beauty. The ink was a symbol to celebrate her mum’s clean bill of health after suffering from cancer.

It’s basically an ode to her mum’s fave song ‘Blackbird’ by Paul McCartney.

The colourful butterfly on Vanessa Hudgens is her very first tattoo. Her name in Latin is a derivative of the word butterfly since coincidently a butterfly landed on her mum's stomach a week before she was born.

Jolie's love for tattoos is no big surprise. The world-famous mum's upper arm tattoo is the next level of mommy love. Her ink is a sequence of map coordinates that correspond with the birthplaces of her six kids: Maddox, 9 (Cambodia), Pax, 7 (Vietnam), Zahara, 6 (Ethiopia), Shiloh, 4 (Namibia), and twins Vivienne and Knox, 2 (France).

The K-clan generally likes to stay away from the ink game (thank GOD!) but NOT the younger ones. Kendall and Kylie both sport meaningful tattoos on various parts of their bodies. But the ones that caught our attention are two hardly-there tattoos on Kendall's fingers.

The tiny dots are symbols — that to her, it’s the little things that matter. Jenner later replaced the dots with broken hearts — a symbol for her breakups, perhaps?

Back in 2014, this brave girl fought a lot of demons, but Selena decided to dedicate her fourth tattoo to her battle with depression.

The tattoo is a touching Arabic quote on her back that translates to, love yourself first.

Demi Lovato LOVES to get inked and de-inked. The pop star has about 30 tattoos but the most adorable of the lot is a cute smiley on the tip of her pinky finger. She shared this tattoo with her Insta-family saying, "Cause life's too short not to tattoo your pinky."

The reason behind Alba's very first wrist tattoo will leave remind you of your first heartbreak. The actress once revealed that the ink is a lotus in Sanskrit which means the manifestation of spiritual beauty.

She got this as sort of a sign of freedom from her then-boyfriend. Talking about the painful memories, she said, "He was really anti-tattoos, and I felt like after I broke up with him, I, like, found myself again.”

The catwalk queen has tonnes of minimalistic tattoos but the most endearing one is by her gal pal, Kendall Jenner who chose the reference to Hillsong Church, which Hailey and several of her famous friends have become fans of.

Each of Megan's tattoos has a special meaning for her and mark a certain point in her life. But the most cryptic one is an adaptation of a quote from King Lear by William Shakespeare.

The text, "We will all laugh at gilded butterflies," is to remind her to stay grounded and not get bewitched in all the glitz and glamour of Hollywood.
