Hilary Duff Gets ‘Shine’ Tattooed on Her Hand

In a recent interview with Nylon magazine, Hilary Duff explained why she got the word “Shine” tattooed on her hand.

She says of the tattoo, "It’s just for me to look at and remember. I feel like it’s easy to lose your shine, to lose that special thing about yourself.

She continues, “When you get busy or you get tired and you feel like everything is fake or the world is against you, it’s important to keep your character and to let your light shine."

Personally, I don’t like tattoos much, but at least this is for something good!

    I heard she got another tattoo on her wrist or hand. Are there any images Lauren?

  2. sara

    i remeber when she was with joel she said she will never get any tatto i wanna know what made her to change her mind about getting it now..

  3. hil

    she better not have another tattoo.

  4. Maila

    Hil, why shouldn’t she have another tattoo? It’s her life, she can do what she wants.

    I remember her saying that Sara, but times have changed and I have a feeling she said that because of the guy she was with at the time. Parents didn’t like the fact that she had an older bf, and if she had got tattoos when she was with him back then, everyone would have claimed he was a bad influence on her or something.

  5. hil

    some times enough is enough.

    @ Maila: Another tattoo? Don’t you mean this Shine on her right middlefinger she is talking about?
    She has four tattoos now.

  7. emily

    does she have 3 now?…the one on her foot, the one on her side and the one of her hand…unless im missing one…love her shes beautiful and she has meaning behind all them so thts goodd

  8. kingtriton

    She’s beautiful and awesome. It’s probably her 4th? Leah Miller also has the same Shine tattoo and supposedly the same ma petite amie (my girlfriend). She also has an anchor on the inside left foot and let it be on the right.

    Read about tattoo ink on wikipedia before getting one (and then more!), in California by law they have to warn people because tattoo ink doesn’t just damage the skin or stay there it ends up in the lymph and liver and blood, continuously damaging and lowering the immune system: causes cancer, genetic damage and birth defects. They put stuff in it that would be illegal in face make up but the people who make laws never cared about the people who usually get tattoos.

    Hé c est quand que vous aurez des news au jour le jour pas des news tous les 2 jours voir meme plus de 5 ??

  10. Willemijn

    Answer to mc-stdl: Maybe because there is just not any new news?

    And yes, she has 4 tattoos. Her latest is the anchor on her left ankle like kngtriton said.
    But with the inc and the liver and such: I don’t think you can get damage of such little tattoos. So don’t wory, Hilary is safe.

  11. John

    One day Hil will be a fantastic mother, and God forbid her child has a birth defect she will have life long recriminations that she caused them because of her choices. It’s not worth it.
    Love you Hil

  12. Maila

    Ok I did not know she has four, but still that is fine. She can get as many tattoos as she pleases, its her life and her body.

  13. Willemijn

    @ John: Do you really think she will have a disabled kid because of her tattoos? I think your statement it very harsh. I don’t believe in God, but do you believ that God forbids tattoos??

  14. Sarah

    I think such little tattoos are all fine. She has the right to do whatever she wants, she’s an adult now!

  15. mic-stdl

    Willemijn tu as pris le traducteur pour comprendre ce que j ai ecrit ou tu comprend le francais ??

  16. Willemijn

    I can read a little French. a petit peu :)

  17. emily

  18. mic-stdl

    a Willemijn: ah daccord cool alors :)
