Wearing a strapless white dress , Angelina oozes elegance and class as she shows off her famous back tattoo, which apparently "binds" her and ex-husband Brad Pitt.

Angelina also displayed her arm tattoo, which has geographical coordinates (longitudes and latitudes) from the locations where her children first entered her life inked on her arm and the coordinates for Brad Pitt's place of birth in Oklahoma.

While on a break from filming First They Killed My Father in Cambodia, Angelina spent time with her family in Thailand where former monk Ajarn Noo Kanpai inked three intricate tattoos onto her back.

The Sak yant tattoos were added to her skin using a series of steel rods mounted with a surgical steel needle – a painful process that is said to be more accurate than a modern day tattoo gun.

Brad, who was in the city with her, added to his own tattoo collection and had a Buddist symbol tattooed to the left of his stomach – using the same ink as his wife to "symbolically bind them" as husband and wife.

Ajarn's tattoos are said to be increasingly popular with celebrities including Cara Delevigne and Michelle Rodriguez, and cost thousands of dollars to be done.

They are said to protect those who own them.

But just a few months later, Brad and Angelina announced their plans to divorce one another after a 12-year relationship and two-year marriage.
