Avril Lavigne’s Tattoos


Avril Lavigne has many tattoos, though all of them are small. All of her tattoos are done impulsively. She told Inked Magazine: “Everything is always spur-of-the-moment. All of my tattoos I decide that second and do it,” but also added that she would like a larger tattoo at some point in the future with proper planning. “I want to get a big-ass-motherfucking tattoo on my forearm. I’m going to wait a few years and make sure I still want it then. I have to wait for that special someone to come back into my life. I want to do a big-ass heart with a flag through it with a name. I want it to be a huge experience and statement.”

Avril has gotten most of her tattoos as matching tattoos with friends. She has two matching tattoos with ex-husband Deryck Whibley, lead singer of Canadian pop-punk band Sum 41, and four with current boyfriend Brody Jenner.

On the side of her left wrist, Avril got her ex-husband Deryck Whibley’s first initial “D” in a pink heart, while Deryck got an “A” in heart in the same location for Avril. Though Avril and Deryck are now divorced, they remain good friends and Avril has not covered the tattoo. She later added a music note beneath it.

In March 2010, Arvil celebrated Deryck Whibley’s 30th birthday with him, and the two got “30″ tattooed on their wrist together, even though they had already filed for divorce. She had a lightning bolt tattooed right below it in April 2010 with current boyfriend Brody Jenner, who got a matching tattoo behind his ear.

She had it first done in April 2008 while her friend Allie got a tattoo at the same time. She got the XXV tattoo at the age of 25, and boyfriend Brody Jenner has a matching tattoo in the same location.

  4. sabrina Says:

    haa that’s a LOT of tattoos! i know when i get older the most i will get is four. one medium, one or two words/names in another language(hebrew/japanese/chinese), and an anchor. the medium will be a butterfly representing all the change in my life and growing up, the words will (well one of them) will say “Strength” or “Stay Strong” in another language for the same reason as Demi Lovato. went thru a similar thing. and the anchor will represnt me staying grounded and hope. they all have meaning. and i dont suggest getting a boyfriend/girlfriends name..cuz what happens when you break up? must be awkward for future partners to see…

    I love avril since I was like 17 and I still love her. I’m not 26 and still a big fan. I have losts of piercings and one tattoo. I plan to get a sleeve but I have to make sure I want it forever. Tatts have meaning to everyone. I just picture being old with them. Not to sexi. I also sing and I know once you hit the spot light you feel like anything you do don’t matter because you have the riches and the fame. If I had her money I wound give a shit either. They have laser surgery for that shit. Anyways.. I’m a BIG AV fan and always will be. I never have met her but I’d love to one day. We’d prob get along very well. She reminds me of myself and its all about being young and having fun. So all the young girlss out there always remember to be yourself and keep cool and rock hard :D . |m| (rock on)

  24. Santiago ( Argentina ) Says:

    Hello! The tattoo that is behind her ear, el safety pin, it is because Deryck Whibley has equal to this two in the wrists. I guess that made remembering his friendship with Deryck despite their divorce. I Love You Avril! You’ve got the best voice you have heard this planet! Soon I’m going to tattoo a P where you have the D, because of my twin brother Peter!

    I hope when I get old enough (18) I can get some tatoos also and be just like her and all the other rebels out there who don’t care about anything else but feeding their selfish desires and influencing younger impressionable kids with mega doses of “gotta be cool” propaganda that also help feed the corrupt entertainment industry. Oh i can hardly wait to make it someday !!!!
