25 Celeb Tattoos And Their Meanings You Didn’t Know About
Not every tattoo has a meaning behind it, but plenty of people get inked for special reasons.
Here are 25 celebrity tattoos with special meanings behind them:
1. Emma Stone got a pair of bird feet tattooed on her wrist to celebrate her mom being cancer-free — and her mom has a matching one!
Emma Mcintyre / Via GettyThe tattoo represents their favorite song, “Blackbird” by the Beatles. Paul McCartney designed it for them after Emma wrote him a letter.

Axelle / FilmMagic / Via GettyThe design incorporates the first initials of all the members of their family — “K” for Kristen, “L” for Lincoln, and “D” for both Dax and Delta. Lincoln and Delta are the couple’s daughters.

“It’s a traditional flash tattoo, and it’s so gross now, but I kind of love that about it. It’s pink and turquoise because the friend that passed away had pink and turquoise hair for years, and it was his identifier. … The 13 is for January 3rd [1/3], and also an unlucky number. Also, I got it on Friday the 13th,” she told iHeart Radio.

17. The tattoo that spans Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s chest, shoulder, and neck pays homage to both his Black culture and his Samoan culture. Each symbol is part of a complex story relating to his journey and heritage.
Ron Elkman / Getty ImagesIn an interview for Once in a Lifetime: The Rock vs. John Cena, he said, “It all comes down to three things, which is my family, and protecting my family, and having a very aggressive warrior spirit that you can’t hold down and that I will continue to fight and overcome — that piece is right over my heart.”
Ron Elkman / Getty Images18. On her arm, Dua Lipa has the name of the neighborhood where her parents grew up in Kosovo — Sunny Hill.
Jun Sato / WireImage / Via Getty“[Sunny Hill] became the name of our foundation and then the name of our festival. It holds a special meaning for me,” she told Refinery29.
Luca Teuchmann / WireImage / Via Getty19. The coordinates inked on Angelina Jolie’s arm represent her children’s birthplaces.

Tibrina Hobson / Getty Images25. And finally, Billie Lourd got a version of her mom’s tattoo in her memory.
Kevin Winter / Getty ImagesJokingly, she told Instyle, “Hers was a really horrible version of mine, basically. Hers kind of looked like she got kicked in the leg…I got a version of that that’s classier, but not a bruise galaxy.”
