10 celebrities with hidden tattoos you rarely see

Amanda Seyfried's tattoo is discreet for a reason — it says "minge," which can be interpreted as slang for female genitalia.

"It's a term of endearment, and in England, it means 'vagina,'" Seyfried told Seth Meyers in 2018, according to Refinery 29.

"But in the US, which is where I spend most of my time, it just doesn't mean anything. So [my costars and I] commemorated our friendship with 'minge' tattoos," she said.

Fellow "Mamma Mia!" actresses Rachel McDowall and Ashley Lilley also have it tattooed on their feet.

Seyfried's connection to the word doesn't stop there. Her Instagram handle is @mingey.

In 2016, Kendall Jenner got a hidden tattoo on the inside of her lip.

Not only did her tattoo artist post a photo of his work on Instagram, but Jenner herself has revealed the ink to her fans.

On a 2018 episode of "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," she said, "I was drunk! I was not thinking clearly," before exposing her inner lip.

"Why 'meow?' Why there?" DeGeneres asked.

"It was literally the first thing that came to my mind," Jenner said.

On the side of one of her fingers, Grande has a tattoo that reads "Baby Doll," which she's shown off in Instagram posts. The term of endearment was used by her maternal grandmother.

This is far from Grande's only tattoo. In 2023, Insider reported that the pop star had 58 tattoos, many of which are placed discreetly.

Serena Williams' heart tattoo becomes visible to the public when she puts her hair up to play tennis. Williams has never spoken publicly about the tattoo.

Lawrence has a tattoo on her hand that reads, "H2O" in small, subtle letters. In 2015, she referred to it as "a watered-down rebellion," according to People.

"It's not, like, a real tattoo. It's just like, I was just with Liam [Hemsworth]'s family, and everyone was getting tattoos, and I was like, 'Well, I'm always gonna need to be hydrated, so I guess I should just get H2O on my hand,'" she said.

"It's the color of a scar, so it's all natural," she continued. "It's literally the most un-rebellious tattoo that anybody could ever get."

Following the 2016 shooting at Pulse, an LGBTQ nightclub in Orlando, Florida, that left 49 people dead, Kelly Osbourne decided to get "solidarity" tattooed on her head.

"I have wanted to get this tattoo for a long time," she wrote in the caption of the Instagram post in which she debuted the tattoo. "The tragedy in Orlando devastated me and reminded me that every moment of our lives is precious. Every human is precious. Love hard. Live gracefully, authentically and with conviction, respect, purpose and compassion."

In 2016, Michele posted a photo of her then-brand-new coffee-cup tattoo on Instagram.

The caption explained the deeply personal meaning behind the design. She wrote, "I lost my beautiful grandma this week...She wasn't your typical grandma. She gave me my first cup of coffee when I was 8 years old."

This isn't Michele's only commemorative tattoo. In 2019, another Instagram photo showed the name "Finn" tattooed on her upper thigh in honor of Cory Monteith, who died in 2013, aged 31. Monteith was both her costar on"Glee" — his name was Finn in the show — and long-term boyfriend.

Shay Mitchell has an "E" tattooed on her finger to commemorate the role that sprung her into mainstream fame. The "E" stands for Emily, the character she portrayed in "Pretty Little Liars."

Her costars from the show have matching tattoos, each with the letter that corresponds to their character's name. In 2016, Lucy Hale posted a photo revealing the cast's new ink.

Although the design generally stays hidden, she occasionally chooses to show it off on Instagram.

When Hailey Bieber got the word "Lover" written on her neck in 2019, the timing made it nearly impossible for fans to refrain from speculating about a potential connection to Taylor Swift's then-new song, "Lover."

It has a discreet placement and thin letters, but Bieber has shown it off on multiple occasions, including in a 2020 Instagram post.

According to People, in 2008, Rihanna got "Shhh..." tattooed on the inside of her finger.

Her hidden tattoo started a trend. Lindsay Lohan, Lily Allen, and Cher Lloyd all have the design, too.
