Peter Andre reveals 'laughable' half-finished tattoo as he begged artist to stop

Peter Andre admits he's got a 'laughable' tattoo he had to beg the artist to stop because it was so painful.

The father-of-four, 49, has a number of tattoos - but one on his arm is half-finished.

The band, which is based on Pete's favourite bracelet, is supposed to be a circle, but after the singer felt the needle - it only goes halfway round.

Speaking about getting his first ink, the star said: "I've got a tattoo I regret... sort of. It hurt so much I stopped halfway through so it only goes halfway round my arm."

Despite being incomplete, Pete said he never thought about getting the tattoo removed as it: "makes me laugh every time I look at it, but I guess I should have grown a pair".

The experience didn't put the Mysterious Girl singer off tattoos after her opted to get a number of inkings, including a huge tribal band on his arm.

As for whether he'll get any more, Pete wrote in his column for new! magazine: "I've slowed down with tattoos, but I'm back in training. Maybe one day I'll get more, then I'll be feeling good to show them off."

Last month the singer dropped the bombshell that he planned to move his family to Australia 'for as long as possible' after he finishes his work commitments.

The Aussie is currently performing on stage as Teen Angel in Grease and filming for his upcoming movie.

The star shares Junior, 17, and Princess, 15, with ex-wife Katie Price and Amelia, eight, and Theor, five, with his doctor wife Emily MacDonagh.

Peter was raised in Australia by his Greek Cypriot parents before relocating to the UK after finding fame as a 90s pop star.
The singer still has a great affinity with the country and has a holiday home Down Under.

Of course, the star still has commitments here - not least his son Junior's blossoming music career.

The talented teen went straight to number one with his debut single Slide under proud dad Pete's watchful eye.

Speaking to Heart FM about managing his protégé, the singer said: "It’s my first time managing someone and being able to use my past experience with the team, that I’ve got to be able to help push him in the right direction.

'The first song was great but you guys have heard nothing yet, he’s got some great stuff coming."
