Tattoos
Eminem's left arm tattoo: Proof
Eminem got a new tattoo saying "Proof" down his left arm. The same way Proof had his.
Eminem's stomach Tattoo: Rot in pieces
This tattoo is aimed at Eminem's (divorced) wife Kim Scott. It pictures all the troubles Marshall went through because of Kim, including their arguments. At this time, Marshall had broken up with Kim and he didn't intend to get back to her. It shows a picture of an open grave with the words "Rot in Pieces" below. Rot in Pieces also represents a grave with Kim's name. It had something definitive in the meaning, but it is also the expression of a great pain Eminem was unable to swallow.
Eminem's Lower Right forearm Tattoo: D
The "D" on Eminem's right forearm stands for Marshall's hometown, Detroit and also for the D12 group, representing "Dirty".
Eminem's Lower Left Arm Tattoo: 12
The 12 on Eminem's left forearm represents "Dozen". If you put both forearms together, in addition you have "D12". This is the second part of the above tattoo. Below the "12" there is also a gothic style bracelet on his wrist which he had done whilst drunk.
Eminem's Lower Right Arm Tattoo: D
On his right wrist Eminem has a tattoo saying "Slit Me ". (maybe a reference to his suicidal tendencies from the past.)
Eminem's wrist Tattoo: Tribal
The gothic bracelet on his left wrist has no particular meaning, because Eminem forgot about the original meaning of the bracelet. Probably because he was drunk when he got it done.
Eminem's Back of lower right arm tattoo: Hailie Jade
On his right arm, you can read Hailie's name vertically. Eminem got this tattoo to honour his daughter when she was born, in 1995. You can see this tattoo very clearly on the book cover of Martin Huxley's book (Eminem : "Crossing The Line", St Martin's Press)
Eminem's
Upper Left Arm Tattoo:
Uncle Ronnie
Eminem got this tattoo as a mark
of respect for his uncle, Ronnie Pilkington, who committed suicide back
in 1991. Eminem was much closer to his uncle, who first introduced him
to Hip-Hop, than anyone else in his family and often includes uncle
Ronnie in some of his lyrics. This tattoo is very artistic : it is
related to the ghetto life in Detroit. You can see a huge mushroom along
with buildings and the eye of a whore.
Eminems Upper Right arm tattoo:
Hailie Jade and Bonnie & Clyde
Upper Right Arm
Tattoo :
This tattoo is a portrait of Eminem's daughter, Hailie Jade, with some
roses around her. It also has the words "Bonnie & Clyde", which was also
a song on The Slim Shady LP, and which was also dedicated to his
daughter.
On his right shoulder Eminem has a Hailie tattoo that is his most recent
tattoo. There is a picture of Hailie smiling and < Bonnie and Clyde > is
written beneath. It reminds us of the great complicity between father
and daughter. The roses are, of course, a symbol of his everlasting love
for Hailie.
Before getting this tattoo done, he had a tattoo here which simply said
"Eminem"
