Sam Smith’s “TPH-50HR” Tattoo

The Grammy-winning singer has a script tattoo reading "TPH-50HR" inked at their nape. Though it may appear a cryptic code at first, the abbreviation of this ink is a sweet homage to Smith's childhood home. The initials stand for "The Pink House – 50 Heydon House," which is the address to the house where they grew up with two siblings and parents.

Sam Smith's Puffer Fish Tattoo

Among the latest additions to their ever-growing tattoo collection is a puffer fish design that sits on their left forearm. When host Jennifer Hudson asked them the inspiration behind permanently inking a fish onto their skin, they jokingly replied, "I don't know, honestly." They further went into their "reckless" tattoo selection process. "I'm quite reckless. I like, just, on the day of, 'let's go for it; just do it,' because I've got so many bad ones that I just don't care anymore."
