Body image for a male celebrity is always a work in progress. Constantly evolving, honing and flexing those much photographed tattoos. Body art adds to an actor or singer's air of mystery and allure, as the latest selfie has everyone trying to guess the secret meaning behind a new tat.
The celebrities love of tattoos also reinforces how brave and cavalier they are; withstanding the pain factor and continuing to pose and smile before their inkings are dry.
A man rarely out of the tattooist's chair, is David Beckham, he has numerous inkings, including full sleeves and vast swathes of intricate designs across his body and hands. He is estimated to have been inked to the tune of over 55k and is rapidly running out of skin canvas.
