Ever since I saw the three beautiful tattoos that Evgeni Plushenko got recently, I've been curious about which skaters have them?
So far the only thread I was able to find in GS's "search" option about this was this one (but it's about forum members, *not* skaters): http://www.goldenskate.com/forum/showthread.php?5334-Who-has-tattoos&highlight=tattoos
From my own internet investigating the past day, I've found the following skaters have tattoos (accompanied with pics):

Denise Biellmann ~ http://www.blick.ch/people/schweiz/gestochen-scharfe-51-kilo-kunst-152125 (six pages full! WARNING: lots of "skin" shown)
I couldn't find any more pictures, but I did read that Patrick Chan wanted to get one after the 2010 Olympics: http://www.thestar.com/sports/olympics/article/708435--patrick-chan-ice-prince
Also, I thought I read that Joannie Rochette got one? And for some crazy reason I thought Stephane Lambiel and Brian Joubert had them as well?
Thanks for indulging my curiousity everyone, but I find this topic totally fascinating; getting a tattoo is a glimpse into one's soul, especially when the tattoo is esoteric in nature (re: Zhenya).
p.s. this reminds me of a fascinating book I once read entitled "The Gargoyle" by Andrew Davidson.
