Ville Valo Tattoos

Friday, July 18th, 2008


Ville Valo doesn’t mess around when it comes to his tattoos. The Finnish rocker has accumulated quite a few in his 31 years, criss-crossing their way across his body. Here’s a list of all the tattoos to be found on his pale frame:

- A series of jagged, almost jigsaw puzzle tattoos running up the entire length of his left arm. The tattoos start at his wrist and end at his shoulder, encircling the whole arm and covering almost all of the skin.

- A heart intertwined with a triangle on the back of his neck, just below the line of his hair. Depending on how long his hair is at the time of viewing this may or may not be readily visible.

- A stylized ‘f’ (Finland, maybe? Something more insidious?) circling his left nipple (probably something more insidious). From the looks of it this tattoo was later replaced by a triangle surrounded by snakes.

- A series of thorns and a smaller picture in the middle right in the middle of his stomach, a little ways below his navel.

- A heart on his right wrist.

- What looks to be a stylized flame on one of his calfs, though it could just be a spike.

- A fairly intricate picture of a pope with a space helmet on on the other calf. (This writer’s favorite.)

- A tattoo of a man’s head (he looks to be some historical figure) on his outside right wrist.

- A pair of gigantic eyes across his shoulder blades.

You don’t get much more hardcore than that.
