You would never guess Adam Ant had once been arrested for throwing an alternator through a pub window would you? After all, a man who attacks someone with a starter pistol from the 1940s is just misunderstood. Then of course he ruined everything by deciding he wanted to put out a record with the Kaiser Chiefs.

Anyway, now that's been established, it seems Ant has been seen near the Ivy in London town looking like he's just travelled back from the future, a future where everyone plays tennis with Scottish prostitutes. He seems unfazed by this whole experience though, and is in fact much more interested in showing everyone his new tattoo, which doesn't make him look like a creepy old bugger at all.

If this was the Daily Mail or Bladerunner we would probably spend ages trying to decipher whatever nonsense he had decided to scar himself with, but since we're not and the zoom function in photoshop seems to be broken at the moment we'll have to just assume it says something about love and tolerance and not letting the man get you down. Probably in Latin, it's always amazing how many people seem to expect tattoo artists to be classically trained.

Also, on a slightly different note, surely Adam Ant is exactly the type of well dressed individual the doorman is supposed to keep out of places like the Ivy.
