\n\t\t<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\t\t\tNot as permanent as advertised! Mark Wahlberg, Megan Fox and Pete Davidson are a few of the celebrities who\u2019ve chosen to remove their tattoos over the years \u2014 and detailed the painful process. \u201cI don\u2019t want my kids getting tattoos,\u201d Wahlberg revealed during a January 2012 interview on the Today show, explaining that he slowly [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
As for how Clinton reacted to the tattoo, Davidson said, \u201cShe loves it.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Saturday Night Live<\/em> alum, who once had around 200 tattoos on his body before he began the process of having them removed in 2020, even said Clinton was worried that Davidson would have her portrait lasered off.<\/p>\n\u201cWhat was cute is when I got them removed, she hit me up and she\u2019s like, \u2018You\u2019re not removing me are you?\u2019 I said, \u2018Of course not. Hillary stays,\u2019\u201d Davidson added.<\/p>\n
Davidson first debuted his Clinton tattoo<\/a> via Instagram in 2017.<\/p>\n\u201cWanted to get @hillaryclinton a Christmas gift so I got a tattoo of my hero,\u201d he captioned a since-deleted photo of the ink. \u201cThanks for being such a badass and one of the strongest people in the universe.\u201d<\/p>\n
Clinton had a hilarious response to the tattoo, commenting on the post, \u201cThanks, @petedavidson, This makes it significantly less awkward that I\u2019ve had a Pete Davidson tattoo for years. But seriously, I\u2019m honored.

<\/div>Bobby Bank\/GC Images<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\nMonths later, Davidson explained to Variety<\/em><\/a> that he got the tattoo of Clinton \u201cbecause she\u2019s such a cool person.\u201d<\/p>\nThe pair also ran into each other outside of 30 Rockefeller Plaza in 2019 and snapped a photo together, which Davidson shared via Instagram with the caption, \u201cThat\u2019s bae for life.\u201d<\/p>\n
While Davidson\u2019s tattoo of his unlikely pal isn\u2019t going anywhere, as well as a tattoo of the Wu-Tang Clan symbol, the same can\u2019t be said for dozens of others on his body. Davidson explained why he decided to have most of his ink removed<\/a> during his radio show appearance.<\/p>\n\u201cMy tattoos sucked. They were all drug-fueled \u2014 I got all of my tattoos over the span of two years, and I was just looking at myself in the mirror once in rehab for the first time when I was sober, and I was like, \u2018Oh no, what did I do?\u2019\u201d he said. \u201cI think tattoos are cool, I realize most people\u2019s tattoos are meaningful and mine just weren\u2019t. So I started burning them off \u2014 burning them off sucks. I\u2019ll be removing them until I\u2019m like 40.\u201d<\/p>\n
Davidson has opened up about his tattoo removal journey several times in recent years, admitting in April that he\u2019s spent around $200,000 on the process so far<\/a> \u2014 and he\u2019s only about 30 percent finished.<\/p>\n
