How many tattoos does Ruby Rose have?

Ruby Rose is an Australian-born model, TV presenter and singer. In an interview with Inked magazine, Ruby stated that she got her first tattoo, a 'tramp stamp' of a rose, when she was 16.

By the age of 24, even Ruby herself wasn't too sure of exactly how many tattoos she'd had done: "If you counted them individually it would be, like, 30 or something, but some of them are grouped together as one piece."

As is often the case with ink addicts, many of Ruby's tattoos celebrate events in her life or in her family's history, such as her engagement to Phoebe Dahl, or her grandfather's career as a famous boxer (Ruby has a pair of boxing gloves tattooed on her back).

All of Ruby's Tattoos Were Planned, Except One!

After hosting a MTV show in London in 2008, Ruby hit the town with The Veronicas and wanted to commemorate a successful evening. They ended up at a tattoo 'parlour' in King’s Cross, where the tattoo artist had also enjoyed a few drinks. The result was the three playing cards on Ruby's chest, which she has since had re-done. Ruby has also said her most painful tattoo was having the word 'meow' inked onto the inside of her lips.

Here's an interview in which Ruby chats with stylist Amber Renae about her sense of style:
