Riley Keough Wants to Laser Off Her Finger Tattoos — but Instead Covers Them with Her Rings

Keough also opened up about her role in finishing her late mom Lisa Marie Presley's memoir during an interview on 'Late Night'

Riley Keough has a love-hate relationship with some of her tattoos.

During an appearance on NBC's Late Night on Thursday, Oct. 9, Keough, 35, spoke to host Seth Meyers about the slight regrets she has about her oldest tattoo, which she got in Los Angeles before she turned 18.

"I was 17 and I got the Gemini symbol on my finger," the granddaughter of Elvis Presley revealed, adding that she was "done" getting new tattoos. "It's a complicated relationship."

"I often put rings — Like, this was on it all day," she added, referring to a chunky gold ring on her finger. "It was at Shamrock on Sunset. It was kind of a moment, but I don't — I think about lasering them off."

"I think that's a longer process than you want it to be," Meyers, 50, chimed in, joking that she should wait 10 years until tattoo-removal technology has evolved so she can use "a pill or maybe just, like, a lotion."

Despite her mixed feelings about her horoscope tattoo, the Daisy Jones and the Six star still considers certain tattoos to be important — especially considering that when she finished her late mom Lisa Marie Presley's posthumous memoir From Here to the Great Unknown, she used tattoo symbols in the book to differentiate who was speaking.

"This is the symbol that marks when it switches from your mother's voice to yours," Meyers says, showing a geometric shape that demarcates different speakers in the book.

"That was a tattoo that my mother and my brother both shared," Keough said of the shape. "I think that we were just going back and forth with the publisher about what that could be, and that just — that was suggested, and I just felt that was really beautiful."

Keough previously opened up about another meaningful tattoo that she received after her brother Benjamin Keough died by suicide in 2020.

In Instagram posts shared in July 2020, the actress revealed that she had gotten a tattoo in his honor, with his name "Benjamin Storm" inked on her collarbone. Keough added a red heart emoji to the photo, in which she peeled back the protective plastic from the fresh ink.

Keough has opened up about much of her family's life in the past several weeks as she prepared for the release of her mother's memoir, which she completed for Lisa following her death in 2023 of a small bowel obstruction, a long-term complication from bariatric surgery. Lisa was 54 years old.

"I had an instinct Ben was the love of my mom’s life," Keough wrote in the book, opening up about her late brother and mother's relationship. "Just as Elvis had with his mother, and my mom had with Elvis, my brother and my mom had a kind of 'I can't live without you' relationship. They shared a very deep soul bond."

"A lot of our life was very happy," she adds elsewhere in the book. "The tragedy within my family has been so heartbreaking, but we also had an incredible amount of fun and these beautiful experiences that I don't know if people get to have very often. I feel extremely grateful for that. We're mostly always in laughter and living in a comedy. That's how we went through our life. My life has not been a tragedy. It's been a large collection of many short stories of all genres."
