Pete Davidson, Khloe Kardashian and More Who Have Had Tattoos Removed

As I delve into the intriguing world of celebrity tattoos and their transformations, I can’t help but marvel at the profound symbolism these permanent inscriptions hold for each individual. It seems that just as our lives evolve, so do the stories etched on our bodies, reflecting the changes, growth, and sometimes heartache we experience.


We have an inkling you’ll want to see Pete Davidson’s new look.

On November 2nd, a former Saturday Night Live cast member shared another glimpse of his tattoo removal journey during an episode of the long-running show, where he teamed up with host and friend John Mulaney for a sketch set at a Duane Reade in New York’s Port Authority bus terminal.

Moreover, Pete hasn’t lately expressed opinions about his almost tattooed arms, but earlier, he shared insights into the impact his tattoos had when preparing for film roles.

The star of “Bodies Bodies Bodies” shared during a 2021 episode of “Late Night With Seth Meyers” that they never imagined they’d get the chance to act, and they absolutely adore it. However, they mentioned that it takes about three hours beforehand to conceal all their tattoos for the role.

And he admits it hasn’t been an easy process.

Pete commented, “Leaving them intact is better than removing them, for a couple of reasons. Firstly, when they’re being removed, it’s not just your skin that’s affected; it can also cause discomfort because you have to wear large goggles which limit your vision. Secondly, the doctor will describe each tattoo before he starts laser treatment to ensure you want to keep it or not.

Whenever out of the blue, I’d catch myself hearing, “Should Stewie Griffin still be puffing on a joint?” It’s then that I find myself having to respond, “Nope, not even Stewie, Doctor Z!

Ultimately, Pete feels like there’s a lesson in all of this.

When considering getting a tattoo, ensure it’s something truly desired and not a decision made under the influence of hallucinogenic substances like mushrooms,” suggested the 30-year-old.

It’s not just Pete who has reconsidered his tattoo; celebrities like Victoria Beckham, Mark Wahlberg, Kaley Cuoco, and Khloe Kardashian are among several others who have had similar second thoughts as well.

As a devoted follower, I’d like to share a rephrased version of a statement: After the former Spice Girl chose to remove several tattoos dedicated to her husband, David Beckham, social media users began questioning the state of their relationship. However, Victoria clarified the situation herself.

Following the breakdown of her tumultuous relationship and marriage to ex-tennis player Ryan Sweeting, Kaley Cuoco visited a tattoo studio in an attempt to rectify past mistakes. Her missteps were getting the date of her wedding tattooed on her back.

After her divorce from basketball player Tony Parker, the Desperate Housewives star needed to get rid of not just one or two, but three tattoos. Among these were the number of her ex-husband on the back of her neck, their wedding date on her wrist, and his initials.

2009 saw Hayden Panettiere adding a tattoo with the phrase “live with no regrets” in Italian on her left ribcage, an idea she initially found appealing. However, upon discovering that it was misspelled (from “no regrets” to “instant regret”), she felt otherwise. Starting in 2013, the actress embarked on the process of having it removed.

The star of “The Departed” was eager to bid farewell to his tattoos from his physique. Interestingly, he had disclosed earlier that around eight to nine were already eliminated. His motivation?

Despite being an iconic figure, Megan had no qualms about removing Marilyn Monroe’s image from her arm. In the year 2012, the actress who starred in “Jennifer’s Body” started to have her tattoo of Marilyn, a keepsake from her rebellious teenage years, eliminated.

Megan stated on an episode of The Tonight Show in 2012, as reported by Us Weekly, that it was both extremely distressing and intensely uncomfortable for her. She added that no amount of numbing could alleviate the discomfort she was feeling.

In the 1990s, Melanie got Antonio Banderas’ name inscribed within a heart on her right arm while they were married. However, when they separated, the tattoo of his name mysteriously disappeared from her arm.

Before Brangelina, there was Billy Bob Thornton and Angelina Jolie.

Following their divorce in 2003, the actress from Maleficent got a tattoo of Sling Blade’s alum erased from her left arm. Since that time, she has opted to put the coordinates of her family’s birthplaces in its place instead.

In 2008, on their fourth wedding anniversary, the supermodel had the name of her husband Seal tattooed on her right forearm as a tribute. However, when they divorced in 2012, removing that symbol of love from her body became part of her healing journey. Now, only three stars representing their shared children can be seen where the original tattoo once was.

At some point, the celebrity from ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ had two tattoos in tribute to her father. But by March 2017, she was left with just one. The surviving tattoo displays the words “I love you” on her wrist, written in her dad’s handwriting. The other tattoo, which she opted to have removed, depicted a cross and angel wings with the word “Daddy” inscribed on her lower back. Khloe also shared the entire tattoo removal process on Snapchat for her followers to see.
