Project host Tommy Little debuts a giant neck tattoo

Tommy Little shocks fans as he debuts a HUGE neck tattoo after being quietly removed as ‘regular’ in The Project panel

Tommy Little has debuted his latest tattoo after stepping down from his regular role as presenter on Channel 10’s The Project.

The 37-year-old comedian, who already has tattooed sleeves on both arms, now has a large tattoo of an eagle wearing a scarf on his neck.

He shared a photo of the inking on Instagram on Monday after the tattoo artist shaved part of his head to complete the piece.

“Thanks for the haircut,” he joked in the caption.

Stunned fans flocked to the comments section to react to the tattoo, with one writing: “NO WAY. THIS IS FANTASTIC!!!’

‘SUBTLE. Like it,” added another sarcastically.

Several followers were unsure of the placement, likening it to a “tramp stamp,” referring to a bright tattoo on a woman’s lower back.

‘Sweet baby Jesus… Tommy, is that a tramp stamp on your neck?’ asked one.

It comes after Tommy was quietly removed as a regular panelist on The Project.

The stand-up comic is no longer an “official” cast member but will make sporadic appearances on the show, reports TV Blackbox.

Steve Price was also noticeably absent from a press release confirming that Sarah Harris had joined the program as a presenter alongside Waleed Aly and two new cast members.

A Channel 10 spokesman downplayed Tommy’s departure after a string of high-profile resignations including Carrie Bickmore, Lisa Wilkinson and Peter Helliar.

“The project team adores Tommy and looks forward to working with him again in 2023,” said a spokesman.

Sam Taunton and Michael Hing are set to join as regular cast members in 2023.

Sam will be on the program Monday through Thursday, while Michael will join Hamish MacDonald and Georgia Tunny on Friday and Sunday nights.

The project has been rocked by several high-profile exits in recent months.

Lisa announced last month that she was quitting, effective immediately, and longtime presenter Carrie confirmed her departure in October, followed by Peter weeks later.
