The proud owner of her clothing and perfume range, JLo, has four tattoos sprawled across her chest, shoulder, back, and under her rib. The paparazzi and celebrity watchers have spotted the word Lideres‘ inked in bold colors across her collarbone. Harder to miss was the enormous Dragon tattoo across her svelte back. Both tattoos, however, were temporary, inked on her body for her new music video release, ‘Follow The Leader’, with famous Puerto Rican Reggae duo Wisen and Yandel. The Jennifer Lopez dolphin tattoo on her right shoulder is a subtle, less obvious, and elegant tattoo too. The artiste has, however, been criticized for the bold body art she sports, with celebrity watchers attacking her for the lack of finesse in her designs. Calling it bold, brash, and unwomanly, the actress has faced scathing remarks and flak for her latest fashion faux pas.

The tattoos however are her personal expression and do have a symbolic meaning, lending artistic gravitas to her new music video. Dragons represent divine entities in many cultures. Celeb circuits believe that the tattoo on Jennifer’s back symbolizes the ‘Creator of Life’, or the ‘Divine Feminine Form’. It is this form that remains unrivaled in the universe, from which all creation was birthed. Dragons also symbolize fluidity, grace, and fierce independence despite a gentle, flowing form. Given her fantastic physique, JLo’s dragon tattoo wraps well around her back, with a fluid design that embraces the contours of her body, adding to her svelte look! A dragon represents many things, from strength to power, independence to courage, grace, and beauty; all the traits one can clearly identify in this multi-talented versatile actress. JLo is not the only celeb who adorns dragon tattoo. There are many other popular actors and singers fascinated by the design and meaning of dragon tattoos. For example, Angelina Jolie has a minimalistic dragon tattoo on her upper arm. The singer Pink also wears an intricate snake dragon on her upper thigh.

Jennifer Lopez’s infinity tattoo is a vintage arrow with the words “Jennifer” and “Ben” written in cursive. It’s an infinity tattooed under her ribs as a symbol of her love for Ben Affleck. The infinity symbol symbolizes the infinite love that Jennifer and Ben have for each other and the vintage arrow may signify that they are moving forward together with their relationship in a new direction.

Dragons symbolize power and strength in Asian cultures. In Chinese culture, they also symbolize spring, warmth, and kindness. Depending on your taste, you may go for tribal, colorful, or Asian designs.

While there is a raging, ongoing debate on the meaning of the Dragon tattoo, sources reveal that the body art form also symbolizes balance and magic, encouraging the bearer to tap into the inner, psychic nature and experience a new world of wonder, miracles, and mysteries. Experts on art and culture peg the Dragon as a symbol of good fortune as believed in Chinese culture, as this mythical creature is one of the four creatures in the ancient world’s directions representing luck, fortitude, and a new beginning. Master of the four elements of the Universe – Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water – this creature embodies primordial power, encouraging the wearer to experience raw passion and inner fire! The dolphin tattoo on her right shoulder represents intelligence, harmony, friendship, fortune, freedom, prosperity, power, and peace. Pirate lore serenades the dolphin as a symbol of protection and freedom!

“Lideres” signifies a leader, one who delivers others from darkness to light, bearer of wisdom, warrior of truth and justice! While the significance of these tattoos is open to discussion there is no denying that Jennifer Lopez personifies these qualities. In her quest for truth and success, she is a strong, courageous, independent, graceful, and beautiful woman, a leader in her own right, and a powerful figure in the pop culture world!

The singer got the word “lideres,” meaning “leader” in Spanish, inked temporarily on her collarbone for shooting her 2012 song “Follow The Leader.” It created quite a stir at that time.
