Does Bernadette really have a tatoo on her
arm? I've seen the picture where she seems
to have one, but is it real? Does she have
any others?
Thanks!

She had the battleship tattoo on her chest surgically removed a few years ago.

Yeah. It just was clashing with all those low-cut Mackie and Karan gowns so it had to go.

I love you futuremamarose!
I think it was required of the cast during Dames At Sea.

I don't think that's true, Karen. I don't remember her having it as early as Dames. I believe the tatoo was actually the result of a long evening at Studio 54 in the mid 70s. Too much booze, too much coke. Though maybe she tried to pass the tatoo off as a requirement for Dames in some interview. Yeah, I'm sure that's where you heard it.
Bottom Line Kids: Don't Do Drugs or you'll wake up with a battleship tattoed on her chest. Don't make Bernadette's mistakes.

This is your brain.
This is your brain on drugs.
Oh, why did she have to hook up with Liza?

This is starting to sound like a Nancy Reagan commercial from the 80's!

I've heard she hits the ginkgo biloba pretty hard...not just a recreational user...
When she really needs a fix though...her drug of choice...Calcium!

Don't quote me, but I've heard she's been mainlining Postum since at least the early seventies.

Here is a portion of a review of the RCMH Concert, which touches on the "Tatoo Issue" and contains an explanation of the tatoo from Bernadette herself:
"The most recent publicity photo of two-time Tony Award winner Bernadette Peters shows her sporting a tattoo of a heart with the initials reading: BP+ R&H on her left shoulder. Her eyes glare at the camera in seduction as a fan blows her wavy hair creating a Botticelli-like effect. Quite a saucy publicity stunt for a singer/actress known more for her sweet and comedic roles rather than a gritty tough vixen. Moreover, this new "image" may suggest to her audience that Ms. Peters is ready to give up her charming demeanor for a little sexual adventure. Can't a Broadway Diva demonstrate a sexual appetite?
But, better understood, Ms. Peters' tattoo is a sign of affection. It displays real love between one of the most accomplished performers of the stage and screen and two of the best well beloved composer/lyricists in all musical theatre history. When asked about the tattoo over a phone interview she confessed that it was really just painted on. I guess Ms. Peters isn't as much of a punk rock diva as we thought she could be."

Chorkle, chorkle, snort, snort.
Thanks, Kids. I needed a laugh.
[Please look to the left for said saucy PR stunt of tattoo, glaring eyes and Botticelli-esque hair.]
Tattoo? Real? or Memorex?

Thanks Jean for answering my question...

as you.
