Angelina Jolie Gets Three New Tattoos

By

The last time we checked, Angelina Jolie-Pitt had around 17 tattoos all over her body. This number included the forearm tattoo she had inked in December. And the 40-year-old is proud to show off all of the body art she has collected ever since she was a teenager. On the most recent photos captured of the actress however, the count has gone up to 20.

Photos of the Oscar-winning actress surfaced online as she was on the set of her latest film "First They Killed My Father." On photos posted on The Daily Mail, the actress/director was overseeing scenes shot on location at the Angkor Watt Temple in Cambodia. The actress put on display three new elaborate tattoos that she had done recently. These new tattoos covered the actress' right shoulder blade and spine.

A number of the tattoos Jolie had done on her skin reference to either her relationships and her children. And obviously, these three new tattoos have been done to commemorate the latest addition to their budding family. Self shares that the new tattoos have been done in Yantra (or sak yant) style, which coincide with the existing tattoos on the actress' left shoulder blade when she adopted Maddox. A source close to Jolie revealed to People that these new tattoo designs are Buddhist blessings "for peace, love, and a prosperous life."

This isn't the first time Jolie had a tattoo done while outside the country. Considering she was fond of specialist tattoo artists, Jolie had previously flew to Thailand twice just so she could have a Bangkok-based tattoo artist put a tattoo on her and chant a blessing over the design she picked out. The tattoo, done by Sompong Kanphai, was a massive Bengal tiger on her lower back which she got when she received her Cambodian citizenship in 2004.

Jolie has been in Cambodia all winter long to shoot the film based on the memoir of Loung Ung, a Cambodian author and human rights activist. The actress is said to be directing the Netflix film.
