Lights’ very first tattoos were the sparrows on her hips which she got as a symbol of moving away from home. She explains: “I had just moved away from home and I was 18. I was living in Vancouver at the time and I moved to Toronto, so it’s a big move, it’s like L.A. to New York. I was kind facing the world on my own for the first time and my parents probably would have never let me get a tattoo but I moved out, like ‘I’m a free bird.’ So I got [on my hips] — it’s super cliché, but I got two sparrows. From this hole in the wall place and I was underage. The guy wasn’t that great. But it was exciting because it was my first tattoo.”
Why a sparrow? “I never get anything that doesn’t mean something. The sparrow travels the world but always knows how to get home. And a sparrow is a love bird. They find their partner and they stay with them forever. They’re a really loyal bird. It just had a really cool story behind it.”
Juliet Simms has writing which goes all the way around her upper right arm. It is lyrics from her husband Andy Biersack’s band Black Veil Brides: “When I hear your cries, Praying for life, I will be there” from the song “Saviour.” She first showed off this tattoo in October 2011 at the same time as her “Andy” tattoo.

This little symbol behind Ashlee Simpson’s left ear is a combination of the letters “AE” for Ashlee and her husband Evan Ross’ names.
Ashlee’s largest tattoo is a colorful peony on her wrist, which she got in March 2008. This tattoo has no special meaning to Ashlee. When asked by Hot 99.5 if there was a story behind the flower, she simply explained “No. I wanted it.”
This tattoo created controversy for Ashlee because she debuted the fresh ink on a radio interview in which she seemed to be drunk. Ashlee responded to the allegations on a blog, in which she wrote:
The night before, I had a good friend come to my hotel to give me a tattoo. When I arrived to the radio station I showed them the tattoo. It is my belief that they automatically assumed that because I got a tattoo I must have drank that night. I would never get a tattoo after drinking nor would a reputable tattoo artist do a tattoo after someone was drinking.
The feather which Ashlee had on her wrist is covered up by the leaves of the flower, but the star is still intact and is visible as a sort of hole in the flower. Explaining the cover-up, she told Hot 99.5 “I’ve had a few tattoos there, so now I’m really happy with it. I got it covered.”
Despite it’s lack of a story, Ashlee is very satisfied with how the tattoo looks. She told the LA Times “It’s a peony. It’s a flower and my little star is in it too. And it was my last tattoo. I love it. It was really bold. I’m proud of it. I like it.”
Ashlee Simpson had a feather tattoo on her wrist which was extremely short-lived. She got the tattoo in February 2008 and had it covered-up only a month later. She must have hated it!
Ashlee Simpson tattooed a tiny red heart on the side of her ring finger some time in early 2008. The ring finger is a common place for love tattoos, so it’s likely that she got this tattoo for then-boyfriend Pete Wentz to whom she got engaged in April 2008 and wed in May 2008. Ashlee filed for divorce in February 2011, so hopefully the tattoo isn’t too awkward now! Luckily for her it’s tiny.

In June 2007, Ashlee Simpson added the number 3 beneath “Love” on her wrist. Ashlee and her assistant Nicole got these together as friendship tattoos. Nicole wrote to Ashlee-Star.com: “To answer your question regarding what the 3 represents on Ash’s wrist, we both got one together because before she has to perform, I’ve always kissed her wrist 3 times for good luck with love. It’s basically a count down for her to be mentally & spiritually ready to perform. It’s a friendship/sister thing between us.”
