Davina McCall Reveals All About Her Dodgy Tattoos

Posted: 3/04/2012 07:02 Updated: 3/04/2012 07:02

Getting a tattoo is always going to be one of life's big decisions - but if you're in two minds maybe Davina McCall's experiences of getting inked will put you off.

The TV presenter has had a number of designs done over the years but she's now admitted that none of them have ended up looking quite like what she had in mind.

Speaking in this week's Heat magazine, she said: “I have horns on my loins. It’s funny when I wear a bikini, because you can see the horns and you could be forgiven for thinking there’s a goat head down there.

"I have an alien on my arse, but I’m not going to show you that. I have chilli peppers on my shoulders, which everyone thinks are carrots, so I’m going to maybe get those covered up. I’ve got my flower. It looks like a vagina with balls, but it’s actually a flower.”

Oh dear.

Davina - who got dressed up as a naughty Brownie for the exclusive shoot - also revealed she's had some other body decoration in the past.

“I had my nipple pierced when I was about 25," she said. "And my tummy. I thought the nipple was brilliant – it sensitises it – but Matthew [her husband] didn’t like it, so after I met Matthew I took it out.”

The full interview appears in this week’s heat, on sale now (Tuesday).

I can think of nothing worse than tattoos on women and piercings, I think they look horried accept for ear piercing and that is one in each ear. I am surprised that Davina McCall has had tattoos - shame on you Davina.

Well isn't that a high opinion? shaming someone. Must be nice to be so perfect. People can do what they like. Yes sometimes it ends up looking rubbish but so what. People are just that - people.

Not a high opinion just my opinion I do not like Tattoos nor piercings but if other people want them thats their opinion I am just giving mine, or are you so small minded Dee1988 that you cannot accept other people have opinions or is it just your opinion that should count - grow up do.

She is not the attractive woman she once was, and her appceptance of vile language is pathetic.

note to the huff thought police...you have used the word 'vagina' in the report therefore i will use it here in my comment without it being deleted.
i saw a tattoo of a bunch of grapes on someone but when looking closer i could see the grapes looked like vaginas. when i asked about the bunch of grapes i was told it was actually the persons family....who were a bunch of c****

Unnecessary, badly written and unlikely! I expect vitriol from you in return for my post but it has to be said. Clever humour is funny, yours is, in my opinion, puerile and singularly unfunny!

Suprising how many celebs now spend a fortune on cosmetics to cover up these monstrosities.
