Jason Momoa’s Tattoos
The actor Jason Momoa has a collection of tattoos, each with significance. One of his Tattoos is inscribed with the French phrase “Etre toujours ivre,” which means “always be drunk.” This tattoo holds a special meaning for him. He has also inked the signatures of his loved ones on his chest as a symbol of their close bond.
Pride of Gypsies
When it comes to tattoos, Jason Momoa goes all out. During his role as Khal Drogo in Game of Thrones, he had extensive ink coverage, which continued with his role as Aquaman. He has an elaborate Hawaiian family crest-inspired tattoo on his left forearm, which also includes the signatures of each of his children. Additionally, he has half sleeves on both arms with the phrase “Etre toujours ivre,” meaning “to always be drunk.” His most striking tattoo is on his hand, resembling a compass, symbolizing his love for family and his work as the founder of the production company Pride of Gypsies.
Shark Tooth Pattern
Among his tattoos, Jason Momoa also features a shark-tooth pattern on his arm, similar to the one on his head tattoo. This tattoo is a tribute to his family’s ancestral guardian spirit, known as “aumakua” in Hawaiian culture. Hawaiians believe that their aumakua takes the form of different animals, and for Momoa, the shark represents his ancestral spirit. Furthermore, his right hand has a skull tattoo, which may be an homage to his character Khal Drogo from Game of Thrones or a personal symbol of remembrance.
Scar and Appreciation
In addition to his tattoos, Momoa has a large scar on his face, resulting from an accident in high school. He attributes the fault to teaching him to appreciate life fully and be grateful for every moment. He expresses his gratitude to his fans as the foundation of his career.
“Etre toujours ivre”
Recently, Jason Momoa was seen with a new arm tattoo that reads “Toujours etre drunk,” which translates to “always be drunk” in French. This tattoo reflects his sense of humor beyond his roles in films.
Other Tattoos
Apart from Jason Momoa, Game of Thrones star Josh Hutcherson also sports significant tattoos. He has a tattoo in memory of a late friend with the word “Diablo,” and another representing one of his production companies called On the Roam.
“Min Engel”
Momoa’s Tattoos include the phrase “Min Engel” inked on his calves, meaning “My Angel” in Norwegian. This tattoo may pay tribute to his Viking heritage and interest in esoteric practices such as pagan traditions. The actor shared pictures of these Tattoos on Instagram as part of Leica Camera’s Women Photo Essay Contest, with artist Mainei Kinimaka providing the inking services.
