Megan Fox's Tattoo Collection Now Includes a Full Sleeve

At the 2024 Grammys, Fox arrived on the red carpet in a sheer, chain-link style dress, which put her new sleeve tattoo on full display. While it's unclear if the ink is real or not, it's very possible that it is. Fox hinted on The Drew Barrymore Show back in November 2023 that she was adding to her collection but already has regrets. "I just got one that I don't like that I have to rework," she said. "It's my entire arm."

Fox's tattoo sleeve appears to feature a large bird in black ink with pink flower blossoms throughout.

In July 2023, Fox covered up her "Brian" tattoo for her ex-husband with a floral snake design. The cover-up completely camouflages the original lower-abdomen tattoo. Jesse Tattoo is the artist behind the design. In an Instagram post showing off the new ink, he captioned it, "Was able to completely hide the old tattoo underneath the new snake and flowers she wanted… very grateful for all of the opportunity tattooing has given me and all of the cool people I've met along the way."

In July 2023, Fox paid a visit to tattoo artist Sydney Smith to get some new finger tattoos. In a video, a series of dots, stars, crescent moons, and number 11s can be seen on both of her hands for a total of 19 designs.

During an interview for GQ Style, Fox and MGK got matching tattoos — inked by each other, on each other. It reads "The darkest fairytale," on her left forearm. The meaning behind the phrase? Fox told the publication that it "alludes back to one of the first text messages we ever sent each other," she said.

Kelly got the same script, only his was etched along his right hip bone.

In her 2021 Skims campaign, Fox revealed a second never-before-seen tattoo. The design appears to be the faint outline of a bird on her rib cage. Subtle but noticeable, the new ink looks like a sketch of a bird in flight, so it might be a symbol of freedom or release, but she's kept quiet about the design.

In her 2021 Skims campaign with Kourtney Kardashian, two never-before-seen tattoos were spotted on Fox's torso. Along her right side boob appears to be a fine-line script tattoo, but what it says is unclear.

At the 2020 American Music Awards in November 2020, Fox debuted her collarbone tattoo that is rumored to be for Kelly. It's of the word "el pistolero," which is Spanish for "gunfighter," in script.

Kelly's "Banyan Tree (Interlude)," from his "Tickets to My Downfall" album, has a conversation between the couple where Fox says, "Like you just got my initials tattooed on you, and I got your nickname tattooed on me."

If you've been wondering about the Megan Fox Brian Austin Green Tattoo, let us solve the mystery for you. Fox has a "Brian" tattoo on her hip for ex-husband Brian Austin Green. The pair got married in 2010 and have three sons together.

On the back of Fox's neck, she has a tattoo of a Chinese symbol that stands for strength, according to BodyArtGuru. She's had the ink for more than a decade.

Etched on her left ribcage, opposite of the Nietzsche quote, Fox has a poem tattooed on her that she wrote herself. It reads, "There once was a little girl who never knew love until a boy broke her HEART." It's unknown exactly when she got the tattoo.

Fox has a crescent moon and star tattoo on the inside of her right ankle. It is her only known tattoo that uses colored ink, with the star being blue and the moon a yellow hue. She's had the tattoo for over a decade.

On the right side of her back, Fox has a quote by philosopher, poet, and composer Friedrich Nietzsche. It goes vertically down her ribs and reads, "And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music." She got it before June 2010.

On the inside of Fox's left wrist is a thick black tattoo of waves that form a yin-yang symbol. It's unknown exactly when she got it, but she's had it for more than a decade.

On her right shoulder, Fox has a quote inspired by Shakespeare's play "King Lear." It reads, "We will all laugh at gilded butterflies." This tattoo is over a decade old.

Perhaps Fox's most well-known tattoo is her portrait of Marilyn Monroe. Located on the inside of her right arm, Fox got the ink when she was 18 years old because she idolized the icon. However, in 2011, Fox decided to get it removed (more on that later).

In 2011, Fox said in an interview with Italian magazine Amica that she was removing the portrait of Marilyn Monroe from the inside of her arm via laser treatments. Her reason: "I do not want to attract this kind of negative energy in my life," reported Marie Claire. Today, you can still spot the ink very faintly.
