Sometimes we take a look at some ink and our mouth drops wide open as we exclaim, “Are those tattoos real?!” Well, we hate to break it to you, but the tattoos in this list aren’t real. But we really wish they were. It’s fun to daydream about how sexy some of our favorite icons would look if only they had a little bit more ink, like we do when looking at Angelina Jolie above. Other times it’s cool to think about insanely realistic tattoos that no artist is able to pull off, yet. Or we like to think about the kind of joke tattoos that would be really funny for a week, maybe a month, but certainly not for the rest of your life. So check out this list of some of our favorite “Un-real Tattoos.” Who knows, maybe some day in the future our dreams will become reality and these tattoos will actually exist. Until then we’ll have to settle for this amazing gallery.
