After a two-day visit to Cambodia, the 29-year-old star stopped in the Thai capital of Bangkok earlier this week to have a tiger tattooed on her lower back by a well-known local artist, The Nation newspaper reported Friday.
Jolie, whose movie Lara Croft: Tomb Raider was shot partly at Cambodia's famed Angkor Wat temple, spent more than two hours at a hotel Wednesday having the foot-long image applied by renowned tattooist Sompong Kanphai, the newspaper said.
It was the actress' second tattoo by Sompong, who in April of last year applied an image featuring ancient Cambodian script, designed to ward off bad luck.
Jolie reportedly said she flew back to Bangkok expressly to get the latest tattoo because the first one made her feel that her life was filled with luck. Sompong chanted an ancient hymn to bless the latest tattoo, according to The Nation.

Iowa Granny: I wasn't able to make the 25,000 a plate dinner, but I did attend a short private meeting with The President and the federal judge candidates and local US Congressional Candidates.
With all this campaigning I do not have a moment's rest so I apologize for not being around.
She's full of something. Maybe the tattoo ink has gone to her little pea brain, bless her heart.
News flash: Is John Kerry a metrosexual? When a fan backstage at Thursday night's Kerry concert asked how he gets his smile so bright, the presidential candidate blurted, "I bleach my teeth!" Ny Post
Here's a snippet from a good NY Daily News column, Where's the beef? The Edwards lift shows how issue-lite Kerry's campaign is :
The uncertain core is a reason why Kerry could guffaw and giggle during the raunchfest his Hollywood pals staged at Radio City Music Hall on Thursday night. Even Dean had the sense to blow the whistle on poor taste among supporters.
Not Kerry. Like a hermit crab in search of a safe house, he has now settled into Edwards' us-against-them shell. It's a slogan without an honest policy backbone, unless Kerry is prepared to deliver huge new government programs for 90% of the population.
Clinton is in Germany, still criticizing President Bush:
HAMBURG, Germany - On his first stop in Europe to promote his autobiography, "My Life," former President Bill Clinton told German television Saturday that the United States should have given more time [More than 12 years, that is] to weapons inspectors to search for weapons of mass destruction. He further criticized President Bush for attempting to push the United States too far to the right and for its unilateral action in Iraq.
"I wouldn't have invaded Iraq," he told ZDF television. [But he had no qualms about invading Americans' homes, e.g., the Branch Davidians or Elian Gonzales' relative's house]
Clinton was met before his TV taping by a throng of fans outside the Four Seasons hotel where he was staying, and shook hands with about 100 people there. [100 is a throng?]
During the television interview, Clinton further lauded presidential candidate John F. Kerry. "People can identify with him," he said. [LOL!]
He told interviewer Johannes Kerner that he wore a colorful ribbon around his wrist because he received it as a gift from a child on a visit to Colombia. "The ribbon tells me that I have absolutely no problems compared to the courageous people there," he said.
Clinton continues his tour of Germany in Berlin on Sunday. AP story
