The Story Of Angelina Jolie’s ‘Wanted’ Tattoos
Angelina Jolie is full of surprises, tattoo surprises. Her two tattoos she had on her arms for the Wanted movie were a tribute to Britain’s World War II leader, Sir Winston Churchill.
We tried to focus the tattoos on themes related to this sense of justice. From Churchill’s speech, ‘We have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat’, I had ‘toil‘ and ‘tears‘. Instead of taking mine away, which we have to do in every film, we ended up leaving mine and adding more. I have ’strength of will’ in one language, and we added it in four other languages on my arm. Know Your Rights’ is printed in English on the back of my neck, and again in Latin as well.
In real life she plans to have tattooed on her arm the co-ordinates of the places her children have been born. Nice…

in the last line (In real life she plans to have tattooed on her arm the co-ordinates of the places her children have been born. Nice… ) is that a sarcastic “nice…” ? cause i love all her tattoos, they each have a very important and meaningful message to them. the co-ordinates are already tattooed on her arm. she chooses to get tattoos done for some important message, not like other people, that think tattoos only look cool.

the “Toil” and “Tears” tattoos are only temporary, it was done only for the movie
