Tyson Craig Beckford (born December 19, 1970) is an American model and actor, best known as a Ralph Lauren model. He is currently the host on the Bravo program Make Me a Supermodel.
His first tattoo: Two Chinese symbols in his early 20's. How many tattoos: Lost count at 34. "...As a kid, I always said, 'When I grow up, I'm going to get me a
tattoo,'I wanted to be a rebel...
...If I had to take them off, the two I'd leave are my son's name, Jordan, and Patrick, my brother who passed away. If I have more kids, I'm going to need more neck room. I don't want them to get jealous...
...A lot of actors nowadays have tattoos, and directors find ways to shoot around them. And if I get a tan, you can hardly see them. I tan really easily. When I was modeling in exotic locations, people didn't even know I had them...
...My son is 7 and has such pretty skin. I told him that I think I have enough tattoos for both of us. I'm, like, "Please don't come down this road." I feel the same way that I think my mom felt: "That's a product of me. Don't deface my product'..."
