Here’s something you don’t see every day. Look closely at the guy in the middle – hard to believe, but that’s Travis Barker! BEFORE all the tattoos! In 1998, Blink -182 was an up and coming band and the band members looked more like college boys than rock stars. Kourtney Kardashian’s “husband” was actually quite good looking!
After spending ALL THOSE HOURS in tattoo parlors (not to mention the money) SNL comic Pete Davidson has been diligently getting his tattoos lasered off one by one. Ouch. He started with the most visible ones on his hands, arms, and neck. This is a big step for a guy who was ALL about tattoos, but Davidson has a good reason for putting up with the pain and giving up some of his hipster image. He wants to be a movie star! Pete says he never imagined he could become an actor, but he’s already appeared in two films – The King of Staten Island and The Suicide Squad and he LOVED it. But he had to arrive hours earlier than other actors to have his distracting tattoos covered up. THAT he didn’t like- so he decided to start the process of removing most of his 100-plus tattoos, just in case he has a bright future in Hollywood.

This A-list celebrity is leaving Giorgio Baldi restaurant in Santa Monica after a late dinner with her family. No male companion in sight. Maybe that explains the not-so-sexy attire. Camouflage is far from her usual look, (she’s more at home in lingerie) but one aspect of her appearance is a dead give-away to her identity, and it’s NOT the fur jacket. It’s the hand tattoo – so it must be Rihanna!

There’s no doubt that the Kardashian sisters, Kim, Kourtney and Khloe, and their brother Rob idolize their father, the lawyer Robert Kardashian, who died of cancer in 2003. They frequently share vintage photos of the happy family and Rob (above) got a huge tattoo in honor of his father. It’s too bad that lawyer Robert Kardashian seriously tarnished his career in the mid-nineties when he supported – and represented- his friend OJ Simpson at his murder trial. He was even accused of hiding evidence of the murders for OJ. Certainly he (and everybody else) knew OJ was guilty, but Kardashian chose to help get him acquitted. Nevertheless, his kids never stopped loving him.

You can’t tell by the way he’s dressed, but Jonah Hill, 34, is in a good place right now. His weight fluctuations are legendary, but he’s currently enjoying a slim look that enables him to shop at places like Balenciaga. More important, he’s has written and directed his first film, Mid90s, about a bunch of skateboarders hanging out in the 90’s. We are fascinated by the sudden abundance of brand spanking new tattoos on his arms, so deliberately displayed by his athletic tank top. Men’s magazines have actually started documenting his questionable street style and he looks happier than ever!

Michael Douglas brought his son Cameron to the Hollywood premier of his movie Ant-Man and the Wasp, perhaps hoping to introduce him to some people to help his career. In 2016, Cameron was released from prison after serving seven years for drug charges (including TWO years in solitary confinement!) He worked at a film production company in New York before he moved to LA with his wife and baby. Cameron, 39, wants to resume acting and he’s been diligently removing his prison tattoos – perhaps to avoid to being typecast. So far, he’s only done a short film – but we figure his family connections will eventually pay off…
Re: Ant-Man and the Wasp: While we love Paul Rudd, this movie’s purpose is to glorify men, while women are reduced to “daughters” and “wives” of little consequence. That’s what you get with all-male writers.

Here’s a hot guy who looks better with his clothes ON. Zayn Malik left chilly New York to spend time at his rented house in Miami and write more music. The former One Direction singer is usually quite a snappy dresser. He’s pictured here smoking SOMETHING, looking rather pale and thin…and seedy. In fact, he resembles a good looking, but rather debauched drug addict. And those black socks in the sunshine don’t improve the look. Some people just don’t look like they belong in the sun…

And it’s not difficult – all Justin Bieber had to do was talk a walk on the beach followed by two fully clothed bodyguards. Of course his midriff top and red pants perfectly displayed his new tattoos. (Note the Calvins peeking out.) Dozens of people started following him on the sand like the Pied Piper. Sometimes Justin wants to be left alone, and sometimes he obviously DOESN’T.

Behind out backs, tattoo artist Kat Von D, 34, appears to have been cultivating a Kardashian style rear end! It became quite evident when Kat was seen shopping in West Hollywood in a skin tight red outfit. Besides her work at High Voltage Tattoo, the former star of L.A. Ink has become a makeup tycoon – her cruelty free collection at Sephora has been increasing in popularity for eight years. Maybe the Kardashians are her business – and her butt- inspiration.

Mariah Carey looks healthy and happy in Paris- she has a large and enthusiastic number of French fans to cheer her up. She orchestrated a visit to Disneyland in Paris for her kids Moroccan and Monroe and she and her entourage left the Peninsula Hotel Sunday morning with the excited twins. Everyone wore sensible shoes for the day EXCEPT Mariah, who chose stilettos. (Ouch!) As she loaded the kids into the car it became apparent that her tramp stamp has been altered and Nick Cannon’s name was removed.
