Carson Daly doesn’t seem like the kind of guy who would have a lot of tattoos. Perhaps it’s because he hosts family-friendly shows like TRL and The Voice, which don’t mesh with the rebellious spirit so commonly associated with getting inked, or maybe it’s because he generally works in and appears in long-sleeved shirts, making all that potentially tattooed flesh out of sight and out of mind.
Well, according to Good Housekeeping, Daly has gone under the needle at least 10 times, and unlike a lot of celebs who have tattoo regret, Daly’s proud of his illustrated skin. “All mine mean something,” Daly said on The Golf Channel’s Feherty, and they mostly have personal, familial significance. On his upper arm, Daly has a jack playing card with the date March 15, 2009 — a tribute to his son, Jack Daly. Elsewhere, Daly rocks a “Leo the Lion” with a rose, a nod to his paternal grandmother and daughter (whose astrological sign is Leo). To honor his father, who went by the nickname Curly, Daly got a tattoo of his old man’s favorite spirit, Cutty Sark Blended Scotch Whisky, altered to read “Curly Sark Original Pops Whisky.” Daly even has a military tattoo — it’s of the Green Beret, for his grandfather Bill Jones, a member of the elite Army Special Forces.
