So let’s do a short tattoo analysis on the only reliable factor that we have - the length of Armie’s hair and colour of his skin.
Exhibit A photos - obvious backposting by Liz and showed up on her IG on or about June 22, 2020. Armie’s hair is not short and not in the Mohawk. His skin is much paler and he is not as tanned, because these photos date back to a time closer to his arrival in Grand Cayman.
Coincedentally on my iPhone, I am invited to edit the image on the left in the exact same spot, where the tattoo appears. Hmmn interesting.
The angle and placement of the tattoo seems tilted down to the left more than what is observed by photos and videos in Exhibit C. Thanks Liz for your shitty editing skills.
Exhibit B - still photos captured in Armie’s own “Making a run for Cuba” IG video story. Armie’s hair is extremely short and he has a bushy moustache. He is much more tanned overall than before.
The camera was reversed as selfie filming. The cloudy, curvy E for lack of better reference is now on the right side. The tattoo looks like an image, picture and/or writing in Arabic. I see colours as well.
I don’t have the link to Armie’s IG video, but if someone else does, please feel free to add on.
Exhibit C - still images and videos captured from Sunday June 21 “fundraiser” from the Grand Cayman. Armie has lost his moustache and hair is starting to grow out from the buzz cut but is still short.

To me, it is obvious that makeup has been applied to conceal the tattoo in a large circular fashion. We, the public, are being shown what Armie would like us to see, which is lettering of “Easy” in unique font.
The placement of the tattoo or stencil is also away from the shoulder or towards the middle of his chest, in contrast to Exhibit A photos. In other words, Armie knew where to cover the exact spot as opposed to Liz’s flimsy editing skills.
And finally, Exhibit D - a comparison zoomed in shots of tattoos from Exhibit A and Exhibit C. One can tell the earlier photo due to the paleness of his skin on the left.
There are some differences in the s and y lettering, but that may be due to the angle of the camera and skin. There are definite differences with the dot or swoop above the “s” in each photo.
The tattoo is small enough to be easily covered for future filming or removal purposes.
It is small enough so that a stencil of “Easy” can be applied when one needs to have one’s shirt off for extended publicity/PR purposes.
The glimpse of the tattoo in Exhibit B is the real tattoo.
The significance and exact meaning is unknown. But it is located close to or over his heart, so I think that means something. Getting a tattoo is a commitment, as everyone knows. Often, a tattoo will mark a life decision or change.
We, as Charmies, may never ascertain or know the actual image or its significance.
And I can understand Armie’s decision (and Liz) to show something different to the public. It’s about trying to control the narrative - like taking on and taking off one’s wedding ring at will.
With thanks to @694699 and @shadow-tc for the images. Apologies if I have accidentally used images from other blogs without giving credit.
