Shocking Celebrity Tattoos and the Secret Messages Behind Them

Mulligan attributes this tiny seagull tattoo to the fact that she got her role in Shame. She mentioned in her audition that she wanted to get a seagull tattoo to remind her of the character that she played in the stage performance of "The Seagull." This ambition, the conversation, and the decision to get this tattoo ended up landing Mulligan the role.
