Real meaning behind Amber Rose’s forehead tattoo

The mother-of-two debuted the face ink back in 2020

Amber Rose made headlines on Monday (15 July) after speaking at the Republican conference to endorse Donald Trump for president.

However, it's clear many people were more focussed on the model's forehand tattoo more so than anything else.

The 40-year-old first showed off her face ink back in 2020 and she has since opened up about the special meaning behind it.

"Not everybody is gonna get a face tatt. That's what separates me from them," she told Stylish magazine.

Acknowledging that a face tatt may not be everyone's cup of tea, she continued: "I don't live my life for other people... If I let people affect me in that way, I would just be miserable every day. I wouldn't be the great mom that I am. I would be depressed and I would be filled with anxiety."

Amber added: "I love my body, I’m cool with my body, and I do what I want with my body.

"You just gotta be who you are, and if someone likes you, they’ll join the bandwagon, and if not, they’re just not for you. It’s not really a big deal for me."

Amber, who previously dated rappers Kanye West and Wiz Khalifa, dedicated the 'Bash Slash' tattoo to her two children.

She shares son Sebastian 'Bash' Taylor Thomaz with Wiz and her other son, Slash Electric Alexander Edwards, with her other ex-boyfriend Alexander 'AE' Edwards.

Unveiling the ink some years back in 2020 on Instagram, Amber shared with her followers: "For the people that are telling me I'm too pretty for a face tat are the same people that would tell me that I'm 'too pretty' even if they thought I was ugly and lie to me Lol.

"Or they would just tell me I'm ugly so either way the moral of the story is do whatever the f*** you want in life - muva."

During her speech at the Republican conference yesterday, Amber told the audience: "I realised Donald Trump and his supporters don't care if you're Black, white, gay or straight.

"It's all love. And that's when it hit me: These are my people. This is where I belong."

She also added: “I’m here tonight to tell you, no matter your political background, that the best chance we have to give our babies a better life is to elect Donald Trump president of the United States.”

Her recent comments show quite a significant shift in her political position as, during the 2016 election, she referred to Trump as a 'f*cking idiot' and said she 'really hope[s] he's not president' in an interview with The Cut.
