It seems like the only thing stars talk about on late night TV shows are the tattoos they see of themselves. On Wednesday Bill Murray and other stars of the original Ghostbusters were treated to seeing a ton of tattoos inspired by the iconic comedy while on Jimmy Kimmel Live, and on Thursday John C. Reilly was on Conan also talking about a tattoo he had seen. The tattoo Reilly talked about is one that you will never be able to unsee—it’s a Step Brothers themed piece on someone’s ass.
On one cheek you have Will Ferrell with the word “Boats” in script. Reilly is staring out from the other cheek with, you guessed it, “Hoes” written underneath the portrait. It really is a breathtaking thing to behold. Unsurprisingly Reilly used the tattoo to tee up a joke. “The only thing that comes between me and Will these days is… the usual shit,” Reilly quips.
Reilly goes on to tell a few stories about times that he has had fans run up to him to show them tattoos of his mug and it sounds like it’s a trend that he is not altogether comfortable with. But when it comes to this very specific tattoo Reilly is left with many unanswered questions.
“I have to give it to that guy for the commitment,” Reilly told Conan. “How does he enjoy the tattoo? And how does he show it to friends? He showed it to a lot of friends tonight.”
