HER love of tattoos is legendary - but this time Angelina Jolie has really outdone herself. The actress has given a rare glimpse of her behind - complete with a sprawling Bengal tiger etched with black ink. The 33year-old mother-of-six - voted the world's sexiest woman countless times reveals plenty of skin in her movie Wanted, released to DVD this month.
"My kids talk to it all the time,'' the Academy Award-winning actress has said of her striking tattoo. They just like to say hi to it and paint it with finger-paints. It's like a little friend.''
Jolie got the tattoo four years ago from Bangkok artist Sompong Kanphai and, perhaps not coincidentally, lent her voice to the character of a tigress in the animated flick Kung Fu Panda.
While she has 13 tattoos, Jolie seldom shows them off in movies. A special digital artist was reportedly hired to go frame-by-frame through her film Tomb Raider to ensure no trace of her skin art could be seen. Jolie's other tattoos include a large black cross on her left hip.
Among her skin illustrations are a Thai Buddhist prayer (for protection), the Roman numeral 13 (XIII) and latitude and longitude co-ordinates for the birthplaces of her children. The words "Know Your Rights'' are tattooed just below her neck and she has a dragon on her left upper arm that used to say.
Billy Bob above it. Jolie lasered it off after divorcing actor Billy Bob Thornton. She recently told a UK interviewer she always felt like an outsider. "I am still at heart - and always will be - just a punk kid with tattoos,'' she said.
