Evan Rachel Wood is so tired of people mistaking her Beatles tribute tattoo for a ferret, she is planning to cover it up.

The Running With Scissors star decided to get the strawberry-shaped etching while filming the Beatles-themed musical romance Across the Universe, but now wants to hide it because of comments that have been made about it.

Evan told People magazine: “I’m going to get it covered up because nobody can figure out what it is.

“It’s supposed to be a strawberry with leaves in the shape of a bird, but everybody says, ‘Is that a ferret sticking out of an apple?'”

The 20-year-old actress revealed she has three tattoos and her favourite was a Valentine’s Day present from her boyfriend, 38-year-old goth rocker Marilyn Manson.

She said: “I have a black heart. It was my Valentine’s Day present this year. Somebody came to the house. We both got black hearts. It represents mad love.

“My other tattoo is a lightning bolt – for David Bowie, who inspired me to act and sing.”

The Thirteen star confessed her parents aren’t happy about her body art. Evan said: “It took me a while to tell my mom about this last one, but she’s cool with it now. I even told her I was getting the Beatles one covered up. She’s like, ‘Great, just call me when you’re done.'”
