If anyone has an eye out for the latest under-the-clothes trends, it’s Mr. Skin! And we can’t help but notice that more and more sexy celebs nowadays are flaunting new additions to their phenomenal funbags - pierced nipples!
This trend that once seemed taboo is slowly becoming more popular, especially with female celebs. It’s easy to see why - they’re sexy in a rebellious way, incredibly eye-catching, and can even feel quite empowering. And though it might normally be a fashion statement that’s kept under wraps - literally - there have been a handful of babes bold enough to show them off.
We’re highlighting a number of stripped-down stars with confirmed nipple piercings that aren’t just limited to your imagination. You can check out their hooter-ific hardware here… and maybe get hard yourself in the process!
Rihanna
The best-selling vocal artist is already a fashion icon thanks to her Savage X Fenty lingerie line, but her unapologetic approach to showing off her pierced nipples is what makes her a true queen. She gave fans a peek when they poked out of a sheer top during the 2016 music video forKiss It Better(don’t mind if we do!) but you can actually get an unobscured look at her yabbos a year earlier in the video for Bitch Better Have My Money, proving she truly is the ultimate good girl gone bad!

Janet Jackson
It was the nipple seen ‘round the world. Never has a piece of jewelry caused more commotion than when Justin Timberlake tore off part of Janet’s top during the halftime performance at Superbowl XXXVIII and revealed her adorned areola. People may have balked when they discovered just how nasty Ms. Jackson really was twenty years ago but we doubt Nipplegate would be half as scandalous if it happened today.

Rooney Mara
According to a 2011 interview with Allure Magazine, Rooney was so committed to accurately portraying Lisbeth Salandar, the goth-y hacker heroine of Stieg Larsson’s The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, that she got several body piercings - including her right nipple. She reasoned that it made sense considering how much time she spent topless in the film, which is honestly one of our favorite things about it!

Lindsey Normington
Lindsey is starting to become a very familiar face on screen lately, but if you’re not sure where you’ve seen her, maybe cast your eyes downward, because you’ll definitely recognize that amazing rack. After going full frontal in the artsy short Sandbagger, Lindsey’s pierced nips hit the spotlight in 2024’s Best Picture winner Anora, where she played Mikey Madison’s strip club nemesis, Diamond. And like a diamond, you could probably cut glass with those bare babies!

Christina Aguilera
It’s no surprise that this Dirrty girl once called getting pierced “euphoric,” especially when you learn she had twelve piercings all over her body at one point in time. While we sadly do not have any close-up footage from when the pop star had her labia pierced, you can catch a glimpse of her right nipple piercing in the 2000 MTV docuseries, Diary.

Mary Beth Barone
A recent addition to Mr. Skin, this comedienne just doesn’t talk about her pierced nips in her stand up routine, she had the stones to show her petite pair as the star of the lusty thriller Sugar Baby. You can see Mary Beth’s boobs several times throughout the flick, including during some sexy sapphic scenes.

Carter Cruise
Pierced nipples have become a calling card for this adult actress so she has no problem showing them off in features like The Love Machineand High Heel Homicide. They’ve served her well, too, winning her multiple awards and helping her cruise to almost three hundred on screen credits, making her one of the skindustry’s hottest commodities!

Kristen Stewart
The most elusive of the bunch, this one has only been seen in theory by eagle-eyed folks who claim to see the outline underneath her shirt in certain photos. You would think with so many amazing scenes in which she bares her B cups, at least one of them would contain a hint of bling, but so far Kristen seems to be keeping her piercing private.
****
Bella Thorne
Another former child star who really grew into their naughty side, Bella has a penchant for donning looks that leave little to the imagination. Still, she's yet to go completely nude on screen, so instead of the full picture we have to settle for moments like this one in the Measure of Revenge, where you can just see the outline underneath a tight tank top. This lack of Bella's boobs is a real Thorne in our side!

So move over belly button, there’s a new favorite body part when it comes to piercing. And thanks to the growing movement to free the nipple, this edgy accessory doesn’t have to be a celeb’s dirty little secret anymore. We can only hope celebrity nipple piercings become even more prevalent as body confidence hits an all time high and inhibitions sink so low they all but disappear - along with any clothes covering these busty baubles!
