#70 - Josh Hartnett (Actor, July 21, 1978)
 It's hard to believe that Josh Harnett used to work at McDonald's and Burger King before getting his start in acting. Talk about turning your life around! It's easy to see why he has been a vegetarian most of his life; excessive exposure to fast food tends to have that effect. Josh's climb to fame was brought to the fore by his acting roles in The Virgin Suicides, Pearl Harbour and Black Hawk Down. Hartnett's boy-ish good looks have been regularly praised by Teen People, and People Magazine in it's 50 Most Beautiful People Issue. Tattoo wise, Josh wears a celtic knot on his back and he's recently been spotted with a highly visible tattoo of a crown on his neckline. >> pictures

#69 - Ben Harper (Musician, October 28th, 1969)
 Ben Harper is a Grammy Award winning American musician from Pomona Valley, California and quite possibly the reincarnate of the late, great, Bob Marley. Like Marley, Ben skillfully combines elements of folk, blues, gospel and reggae to create the feel-good musical vibe that he is popular for today. On stage he projects a sense of charm and confidence, which is accented by his slick, bohemian sense of style. Ben has a massive Maori tattoo, which covers his arms and his entire back. The philosophy behind Maori tattooing is that the tattoo is already under your skin, and the tattooer brings it out from inside you. Ben’s tattoos reflect where he’s been, where he is now and where the future will take him. >> pictures

#68 - J.R. Celski (Speed Skater, July 17th, 1990)
 What’s faster than a speeding bullet? More powerful than a locomotive? It’s J.R. Celski—short track speed skater and two-time Olympic bronze medallist! No really, Celski is a real-life Superman. Five months before the 2010 Olympic Games he suffered a gruesome on-ice injury, when his thigh was sliced wide open during a high speed crash. Superhero strength activated, he managed to rehabilitate his leg in time for the Games and won two medals. Tattoo related pain is a walk in the park after that kind of trauma. Celski has a black and grey chest piece of a sun and an eagle which are patriotic symbols inspired by his Polish and Filipino heritage. >> pictures

#67 - Scott Weiland (Musician, October 27th, 1967)
 Plain and simple, Grammy Awards get you girls. Grammy Award winner, Scott Weiland, of the Stone Temple Pilots (and more recently Velvet Revolver), is finally squeaky clean after years of drug abuse and multiple arrests. Legal trouble aside, Scott is an unforgettable performer who uses props, stage antics and liquid dance moves to get the crowd to their feet. Scott has an Japanese 3/4 sleeve with waves, cherry blossoms, a large dragon, clouds and wind bars. Weiland recently had Mark Mahoney, tattoo a portrait of his ex-wife's on his left forearm. They are now divorced, but says he won't have it removed because she is the mother of his children. >> pictures

#66 - Ja Rule (Rapper, February 29th, 1976)
 Jeffrey Atkins, better known to fans as Ja Rule, is a rapper from NYC who came up in the music industry with fellow rhyming prodigies Jay-Z and DMX. Ja Rule has one of the smoooothest speaking voices we have ever heard. We could just sit there, close our eyes and listen to the sweet sound of his voice all day. Ahhh. He could tell us about his day, talk about the weather, read us a bedtime story. We'll just sit there and listen attentively. Don't believe me? Go to YouTube right now and find out for yourself. Ja Rule has many tattoos, including a large religious themed back piece, with crucifixes, wings, light rays and fire. His left pectoral muscle is decorated with the script: Pain In Love. Aww, did some hurt you Ja Rule? Let us mend your broken heart? >> pictures

#65 - Jay Baruchel (Actor, April 9th, 1982)
 Jay Baruchel, let’s call him the “Canadien”, is an actor and ice hockey addict from Montreal, Quebec. He’s best known for his comedic roles in Knocked Up, Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist and the recent box office smash, Tropic Thunder. Baruchel is industry known for his attractive, interchangeable looks—he can go from awkward geek to uber chic with the swish of a stylist’s magic wand. Jay has several tattoos including a celtic cross and his mother’s maiden name. He also shows off his Canadian pride by wearing a Canadian maple leaf on his chest. Now that’s True Patriot Love! >> pictures

#64 - Robert Downey Jr. (Actor, April 4th, 1965)
 Robert Downey Jr., Prince of Prescriptions. He's clean for now (and hopefully for good), so we won’t take too many stabs about his clingy on again off again girlfriend (see: drug use). Jokes aside, Downey really is a gorgeous catch with deep soulful eyes that share his troubled journey through fame. His obvious talents have always been respected and recognized by his peers which has helped him become one of the most decorated actors of his generation. After his comeback, he starred in a medley of blockbuster movies including; Zodiac, IronMan, Tropic Thunder and Sherlock Holmes. Robert's tattoos consist of the name Suzie on his left arm and a large inked image of himself etched into his left bicep. A source says, "It has his face with a body all chiseled. It is one of the weirdest tattoos I have ever seen. It's a superhero version of himself". >> pictures

#63 - Jamie Hince (Musician; The Kills, December 19th, 1968)
 Jamie Hince, best known as the guitarist for the garage rock band The Kills, is always seen with a guitar slung over his shoulder and a cigarette dangling cooly, from his lips. Like a modern day Lou Reed, Jamie haunts dive bars, chain-smokes and speaks with a gravelly Brit accent that is a genuine side-effect of the rock and roll lifestyle. Jamie has been in the tabloids lately because his main squeeze happens to be supermodel Kate Moss—you might have heard of her? The tabloids have speculated that they were married in a secret ceremony after they were spotted with matching anchor tattoos on their wrists “to keep each other grounded”. >> pictures

#62 - Henry Rollins (Musician, February 13, 1961)
 Hardcore Hank with a sensitive poetic side, Henry Rollins, is best known for his involvement with the hardcore band, Black Flag, and his solo project, The Rollins Band. Henry was rumoured to be a bit of a ladies man in his younger years, but now (unfortunately) practices monk-like restraint with the fairer sex and stays focused on his career as a musician, author and spoken word performer. Henry has been photographed extensively in his career and has many instantly recognizable tattoos, including a large tribal sun that covers his entire back with the words SEARCH & DESTROY across his shoulders. He also has a large collection of music related tattoos; logos from Black Flag, The Misfits, Einstürzende Neubauten and other seminal punk/noise bands from 80's. >> pictures

#61 - Tim Armstrong (Musician, Rancid, November 25th, 1975)
 Like your boys with a bit of piss and vinegar? Lace up your Doc Martens and say hello to Tim Armstrong of the ska/punk band Rancid. Tim has a penchant for emptying bottles and breaking hearts whilst wearing a stringy mohawk and a shit-eating grin. He may be a little rough around the edges, but that mischievous smile and crooked porkpie hat have wooed punk rock gals all over the globe. Tim has never shied away from having highly visible tattoo work and has a spider web tattoo that covers his entire head. Continuing with the spider-y theme, Tim also has a spider web tattooed on his left elbow and a black widow spider on his neck. Hell Cat records is owned by Armstrong, and he has a tattoo of the Hell Cat Records logo to commemorate his pride and joy. Rock on! >> pictures
