Mindy White
Mindy White’s first tattoo is of the word “daggum” on the inside of her bottom lip. “Daggum” is a word that Mindy uses in place of swearing. She explains:
It’s like saying “dang” or “darn.” I don’t like profanity so I try not to use it. “Daggum it” is the same thing as saying “Dang it.” It’s a rather southern term.
Mindy got this tattoo during Warped Tour 2006 to remind her of home. Inspired by a friend with “sushi” tattooed in her lip, Mindy first considered getting “barbecue” as a tribute to her Tennessee home. She instead decided on “daggum” to remind her of her parents.
We were on Warped tour and this guy was giving out free tattoos. I have a friend that has “sushi” with arrows pointing down her throat, and I wanted to get “barbecue.” Which is funny, I’m glad I didn’t because now I’m vegetarian. So I was thinking “what can I get that reminds me of home?” and my parents always say “daggum,” like “dang it,” “daggum it.” So I got that.

JoJo Levesque
On the back of her neck, JoJo has her last name “Levesque” and “Live Free Or Die.” She got the name tattooed as a way of preserving it. “My father is the only boy out of his siblings, and I’m the only child of his. So after him when I get married the Levesque name will be no longer in our family. So I wanted to kind of immortalize it on myself,” she told Homorazzi.
Beneath it is “Live Free Or Die,” the state motto of New Hampshire. JoJo lived in Keene, NH for part of her childhood.

Kelly Clarkson
Kelly Clarkson has a tattoo of puzzle pieces on the right side of her upper back. The flesh tone puzzle piece is pulled away to display a scene inspired by The Wizard of Oz. She told Gay Times:
“How it is on me is, it’s like you’ve removed the top layer of me and you can see inside. So inside the puzzle piece is this little tornado with a golden brick road and a hot air balloon, a kind of Wizard of Oz theme. It’s like you peek inside. It’s a very dark tattoo actually, it was a childhood thing I loved but also it worked for my life at the time. I feel like when I got this tattoo, I don’t even know how many years ago, I felt no matter how hard I clicked I just couldn’t find a home. And by home, I just mean I’ve always longed for a family. A solid family foundation and I just hadn’t had that.”
She might not remember when she got it done, but we do! She got inked at Henk Schiffmacher’s Hanky Panky Tattoo Parlour in Amsterdam during her All I Ever Wanted Tour in February 2010.
