Each time we look at a Star tattoo, whether on-screen or offline, we are curious about what that means.
There have been eleven seasons of Shameless. We’ve always wondered what Lip Gallagher meant by his triangle tattoo. However, Jeremy Allen White (the actor portraying him) says it isn’t as cool as people think. He thinks that it’s pretty lame. Most people get tattoos just for the sake of getting one. You don’t have to.
Fans took the initiative to guess what the triangle meant. However, it isn’t as profound as many fans think. White is the one who has this tattoo. He could also have other tattoos that we didn’t know about.
The meaning of White’s tattoos is here.
The Triangle: The Meaning!
Fans used Reddit to explain the meaning behind the triangular tattoo. It was not assumed that the tattoo could have been white; instead, fans concluded it should be Lip.
Fans agreed it was math-related because Lip is Gallagher’s most innovative. Many fans believed it could have something to do with math, as it looks very similar to the Greek letter Delta.
“I know in mathematics, Delta is used to represent ‘change,'” one fan wrote on Reddit. “So I always advised myself that’s what it meant since he’s a Brainiac.”
It is an intriguing and clever theory.
Another fan said, “I have a good friend who graduated in mathematics, engineering, and physics.” This tattoo is his because it symbolizes the best foundation known to humankind.
An additional fan created an exciting idea that tied into Lip’s life. It’s the Alcoholics Anonymous logo. We noticed that Lip struggled with alcoholism. She attended Alcoholics Anonymous many times. A triangle is used as a symbol to represent the support group, which could also be an explanation.
Some fans were more skeptical. One fan wrote that he had gone for the dark side of the moon and was running out of money. This sounds like what Gallagher would have done.
However, it turned out that none of these explanations were true.
You are Lame
This tattoo appears to be a real thing and not just a joke. White recently revealed the meaning of his tattoo during an interview with Fox.
“I appreciate your query. However, it’s a lame answer for this,” White mentioned. The triangle tattoo was done for friends. When I was very young, I had it. I used to be 17, and it was done poorly, so it’s significantly raised.”
White has not explained what this symbolises, though it may just be three good friends bound by the lines in the triangle. White acknowledged that the pilot was his first photo. Shameless They had initially to cover the cost.
“I shot the pilot. Shameless, He continued, “It was just about a minor pain to cover.” [The makeup artists] were like, ‘it’s so raised, no matter what you do to it, you pretty much see it.’ The lip was the one who got the tattoo.
White needed a tattoo prop to film his movie, even though his triangle was not used as a prop—the Rental. Dave Franco, the director of Tattoos, permitted White to create a tattoo. White, however, went too far.
White stated, “I discussed with Dave Josh having multiple tattoos.” However, I decided to make my tattoos along with Josh. We came up with all those ideas, and I attempted to combine a few of my stuff and my friend’s artistic work. The idea of finding something that worked was something we all tried. Sadly, I showed the tattoos to Dave, and he was like, ‘I think it’s a bit too much.'”
The tattoo idea had been a kangaroo with punching gloves.
White has other tattoos.
Live Ramp Up reports that one of the cast members tweeted about White’s tattoos in 2013.
Fact: Jeremy Allen White is a triangular tattooed on his left pec. On his right leg, a square. “A circle on his left side butt cheek,” they said. White might be hugely into these shapes, but we don’t know if it’s true.
A picture of White showing off his biceps with the words “Shameless” tattooed on them is also available online. However, we have yet to find any evidence that it’s real.
What is the shame in Jeremy Allen’s tattoo?

White and the other cast members getting tattoos to commemorate their time on the series would have been lovely. All of them grew up with each other, so why not? But then, we might have another reason to be sad about the ending of this show.
