JoJo got two triangular symbols tattooed on her knuckles in July 2014. On her left ring finger is a triangle with a little dot above it, though the dot and the tip of the triangle wore off almost immediately. She wrote in an instagram comment “the triangle w the circle means ‘learn’.” This is not a common symbol, but rather it comes from a set of glyphs created by designer/illustrator duo Nathan Strandberd and Katie Kirk of the firm Eight Hour Day.
This design of a triangle with a line through it is best known as the alchemical symbol for “air,” however JoJo’s finger tattoo seems to have a different personal meaning. JoJo had this tattoo on her index finger done in July 2014 at the same time as another triangle on her opposite ring finger. Both symbols come from an obscure a set of glyphs created by designer/illustrator duo Nathan Strandberd and Katie Kirk, according to which this triangle with a line means “transcend.”

By 2014 Lily Allen’s “shhh…” tattoo had become faded and mostly worn off, so decided to cover up her regrettable tattoo with something new. She chose the number “1985” for her birth date May 2, 1985.

Kesha has an eye tattoo on the palm of her right hand which features prominently in her “Crazy Kids” music video. Its placement is inspired by Middle Eastern hamsa amulets, which are shaped like a hand with an eye in the center. The hamsa is thought to provide protection from the “evil eye” and other evil spirits.
Kesha got this dollar sign tattoo early in her career. The dollar sign in her name actually came from her tattoo which symbolizes her lack of money at the time.
“The dollar sign in my name is a tattoo–a bad tattoo. And, uh, it just came about because I was broke, and I was just making a joke out of it. Instead of being, like, mad like, ‘I’m so broke,’ I was just like, ‘WHATEVER! Out of money…Whatever. I don’t need money.’ So, out of money, put it on my hand, put it in my name, and it was just kind of a joke, and it stuck.”
She stylized her name as Ke$ha for many years. After she left rehab in March 2014 she turned over a new leaf and dropped the dollar sign from her name because she felt that it represented her old self.
