Christina Ricci’s Lion Tattoo
Posted on April 3rd, 2007 at 5:43 pm by admin

Christina Ricci is such a big fan of the lion from JRR Tolkien’s children’s book series ‘The Chronicles of Narnia’, that she’s now got a tattoo of it on her back. The actress showed off her tattoo when she stepped out wearing a backless dress when she arrived at the Gramercy Park Hotel recently. “It’s Aslan, the lion God of Narnia, from ‘The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe,’” the New York Daily News quoted her, as saying. Ricci, who is the new face for Samsonite Black Label’s new Fashionaire luggage collection, revealed that she had a motive for choosing Aslan, for the tattoo is a symbol of her ‘hellish childhood’. “It was a symbol of my hellish childhood. I struggled through my oppressive teenage years, and when I turned 18, I escaped. Like Aslan, I was finally free,” she said.
