John Stamos, at the age of 62, has just embarked on a new chapter by getting his first tattoo. The 'Full House' star revealed the process and design in a mesmerizing video montage, showcasing a Native American horseback rider gazing upward.
"Guess who got his first tattoo?" Stamos wrote in the caption, teasing the inspiration behind it. He further revealed that the Beach Boys had placed this image, "Appeal to the Great Spirit," over Brother Records as a symbol of artistic freedom and trust in a higher creative path.
Stamos noted that he is taking bigger risks and following creative opportunities more freely. "Lately, I've felt that same pull in my own life. Stepping into this new chapter of my career, taking bigger swings, following the work wherever it leads," he explained in the caption.
He continued, "The timing felt right, so I put that Great Spirit on my arm as a reminder to stay brave, stay open, and trust the direction the art is taking me."
Several celebrities joined the comment section to share their thoughts on this artistic endeavor. Kelly Rizzo, Bob Saget's widow, praised Stamos with a string of clapping emojis, writing, "No way!!!!! I’m so proud of you!" Celia Behar, Jodie Sweetin's podcast cohost, also chimed in, "So now you’re gonna come with @jodiesweetin and me to get your next one, yeah?"
The reveal follows Stamos' earlier comments about seeking more challenging roles. The actor, who stars in the new Danny DeVito-produced horror movie 'Drag,' has said he wants to pursue projects that feel more grounded and meaningful.
"I’m looking for my ‘Breaking Bad,’" Stamos told Us Weekly last year.
