Sam Smith's Anchor Wrist Tattoo
Smith has another anchor ink on their left wrist, which they got as a touching tribute to their fans, whom they adoringly refer to as the "Little Sailors." While joining British GQ's series "Actually Me" in October 2022, the English singer-songwriter explained the sentimental significance behind the design. "When I was 18, I wrote a song called "Little Sailor." That song was a catalyst for my career, really. So I thought it was cool to call my fans Little Sailors," they shared, adding, "And also, an anchor really is a symbol of grounding. It means love."
Sam Smith's Pair of Heels Tattoo
Smith has a pair of heels tattooed on their wrist with two stars adorning the design. While the left set sits upright, its complementary pair lies horizontally next to it. The tattoo might be a homage to their favorite fashion accessory. "I love a heel," the singer shared in a 2017 sit-down with The Sunday Times. "I've got loads of heels at home. People don't know this, but when I was 17, I remember becoming obsessed with Boy George and Marilyn and all that. There was one moment in my life where I didn't own a piece of male clothing, really. I would wear full makeup every day in school, eyelashes, leggings with Dr. Martens and huge fur coats — for two and a half years."
