Noah Cyrus has some of her own lyrics tattooed on her bicep. The cursive ink on her inner right arm says “I’ve been on fire lately” which comes from the chorus of her song “Lately” featuring her boyfriend Tanner Alexander.
When it comes to fans getting their own tattoos inspired by her music, she told NME:
You know what, I’m not, it’s your body, whatever you wanna get tattooed on your body, I’m getting song lyric tattoos, so I can’t say not to do that. But my reaction was like ‘oh my god! You may not love me forever. Are you sure you want that on your body?’
In May 2013, Chiara Ferragni got this tattoo on her forearm that says “Muse.” A muse is someone who inspires an artist, and as a famous fashion blogger Chiara is surely a muse to many designers.
She actually sold necklaces inspired by her “Muse” tattoo as part of her limited edition Caia Jewels collection.
Jesy Nelson revealed a new tattoo on the left side of her ribs at the Global Awards on March 1, 2018. It says “Keepers” and it might be part of a matching “Finders Keepers” tattoo with someone else, possibly her boyfriend Harry James?
Even though the tattoo can be seen clearly, the uneven handwriting makes it hard to tell what it says. The loop on the to of the “r” is too high while the loop on the “s” is too low. We have to agree with one instagram user who commented “It does say Keepely tho doesn’t it? That’s what it looks like… what’s it meant to say? Cause whatever it’s meant to read it doesn’t I’d want my money back from the tattooist.”
Tattoo artist Gabby Colledge does these cursive tattoos in her own handwriting for an organic but imperfect look. Looking through her portfolio, her letter “r” has a tall loop in many of her designs, including Jesy’s own “girl power” tattoo.
Jesy Nelson got three tattoos on her right hand all at once in January 2018. Her middle finger knuckle says “amor” which means “love” in Latin, Spanish, and Portuguese.
On her index finger and ring finger are the letters “E” and “J.” These initials are a bit of a mystery since her boyfriend’s name is Harry James. It doesn’t match any of her family members either — her parents and siblings all have names that start with a letter “J.” The “J” might stand for Jesy, but we don’t know who or what the “E” represents.
Jesy Nelson got this “girl power” tattoo on her collarbone from artist Gabby Colledge in January 2018. As a girl group, Little Mix’s music is all about women taking charge and standing up for themselves. They want female listeners young and old to feel empowered and confident. “If a girl is being bullied, or heartbroken, or just feeling like utter shite, if our music can make them feel better… then we’re doing our jobs right,” Jesy says.
The term “girl power” has been deeply entwined with female pop groups ever since the Spice Girls made it their slogan in the 1990s. Girl power is all about women supporting each other and building each other up rather than competing and tearing each other down.
Danielle Bregoli paid tribute to XXXTentacion by getting this “Numb” tattoo on her right forearm which matches one that the late rapper had on his face. XXXTentacion, whose real name was Jahseh Onfroy, was murdered on June 18, 2018 at only 20 years old. Danielle knew him personally and was devastated by his sudden death. In a long instagram post, she wrote:
Yesterday I lost one someone very important to me. x was not only a close friend but he was a inspiration. He gave me the best advice and was always there for me when I needed him. Even when we would argue or he would call me yelling and mad or disappointed because I did some dumb shit he would always say “Ight I love you mamas” before he hung up. The feeling of him being gone kills me. He would always be one call away. And I hate the thought that when I’m in the need to talk to him when I’m upset he won’t be here to tell me everything’s gonna be okay. Bc of that dumb Trippie and 69 shit unfortunately the last call I had with x ended with me saying “i don’t ever wanna talk to you again” and nothing is killing me right now more than that. And the crazy thing is Sunday night I had the urge to call him and I forgot. Then yesterday afternoon I plugged my phone in in the car and randomly “sad” came on then my phone buzzed i looked down and I had got the message saying he passed away. I didn’t know what to say and my mind couldn’t process it. I just couldn’t believe he was gone and I still can’t #ripxxxtentacion
She got her tribute tattoo only a few days later and shared it on Snapchat with the caption “I love you forever.” Technically, her tattoo says “Nunb” since a cursive letter m should have three arches, but she did this on purpose in order to stay true to X’s original ink. XXXTentacion’s version of the design, which was below his right eye, was written in a way that was in between cursive and print. The letters were joined together but looked like print letters, and his m had a straight line stem rather than a leading arch.
Danielle also included the three black dots that X had just below his “Numb” tattoo — even though she already had her own three dots tattoo on her finger. XXXTentacion’s dots represented the chapters of his life. He had three above each eyebrow and three below his right eye for a total of nine chapters.
His “Numb” tattoo represented a period of his life where he couldn’t feel anything. He poured his heart out into his music and shared his many emotions — including numbness. He wrote a song called “NUMB” for his 2018 album ? and another track “Let’s Pretend We’re Numb.”
We’ve got to imagine that Danielle is feeling pretty numb herself regarding his death. The shooting has made her question the displays of bravado and toughness in today’s the rap scene. In a video recorded by TMZ, she says:
It needs to be a wake up call to all these […people] who want to act all tough and hard. And then when people really get a hold of them — It’s not funny anymore. We lost X because of this, because people want to act all big and bad. […] This is real life. This is not a fucking video game.
Chiara Ferragni got her third tattoo in April 2011. The phrase “Ode Alla Vita,” meaning “Ode to Life” in her native Italian, is the title of a poem by Brazilan writer Martha Medeiros (though it has often been misattributed to Chilean poet Pablo Neruda). She wrote on her blog:
My third tattoo: the sentence “Ode alla vita” on the right arm, to always remind me how important it is to live at our best each day, and to celebrate a friend who used to share with me the passion for this poem.
Zolita has the word “mother” tattooed on the back of her left arm in cursive script.
Asia Kate Dillon has a neck tattoo that reads, in twirly script, “einfühlung”. Einfühlung is the German word for empathy.
