Among the tattoos on Hanna Beth Merjos’ left wrist are a grayscale rose, a safety pin, a green Hello Kitty-style bow, and a skull. The safety pin is the same as a tattoo that her ex-boyfriend Deryck Whibley of Sum41 has, though he got his many years earlier.
Many of Hanna Beth Merjos’ tattoos have “cutesy” themes, including this pink cupcake and Hello Kitty face on her right wrist.
Hillary Scott has a very stylized treble clef design on her right foot. This of course represents her love of music.
The number 14 tattoo on Hillary Scott’s wrist tattoo has two meanings: it reminds her of her sister, who is 14 years younger than her; and it symbolizes that age when she realized that she wanted to sing.
She tells The Boot: “It is a special number to me. That is the age difference in me and my only sibling, me and my little sister. I want to be like her when I grow up; she’s very confident in who she is and her personality and she’s just amazing. And 14 is how old I was when I really felt called to sing and do this for a living, so it’s a constant reminder of being called to do this and the importance of that. Plus my little sister is with me all the time.”
Brandi Cyrus has a heart tattoo between her thumb and index finger on her right hand. This is same location (though on the opposite hand) that her father Billy Ray Cyrus has a heart tattoo. Brandi’s tattoo is slightly larger than her dad’s and it is an outline while his is filled out. Billy Ray got his tattoo for Miley after she drew a heart on his hand, but now the tattoo is shared amongst all of the Cyrus family members. Miley and their mother Tish both have hearts on their pinkies while their brother Trace has a heart on his thumb.
Brandi Cyrus has a cross on her knuckle on her right index finger. Compared to the more intricate cross on her ankle, this design is much simpler with just two thin lines.
Brandi Cyrus has “hope” tattooed on her knuckle on her left ring finger. It is written in lowercase letters in a serif font.
Tulisa Contostavlos has a large winged unicorn on her right shoulder blade. This tattoo covers up an older tattoo of a ying-yang symbol and her name in Greek. The previous tattoo is still faintly visible through the wing of the unicorn.
Tulisa Contostavlos’ most famous tattoo is her nickname “The Female Boss” on her right forearm with a female gender symbol (♀). Tulisa loves showing off this tattoo whenever she gets the chance. It’s even created controversy from critics who were concerned that her flashing of the tattoo on X-Factor constituted a product promotion for her fragrance TFB, which stands for The Female Boss. She responded “I was showing off my tattoo long before The X Factor. It’s always been my trademark and it’s always been my nickname.”
Miranda Lambert has a large tattoo on her left forearm of two crossing guns with wings. Miranda says that she got the tattoo to honor her success as a performer, but that her dad hates it. “The only reason I regret it is because my dad was pissed,” she explains. “I love it, it’s kind of become my signature, it’s on everything I have, it’s my logo, it’s on all my backdrops–but my dad was upset. He’s kind of old school so he took it personally. But we’ve gotten past it. She turned the experience into lyrics in her song “Heart Like Mine,” in when she sings, “Daddy cried when he saw my tattoo / Said he loved me anyway.” Of course she admits that she didn’t think to ask first: “I got it when I was 22 on tour with George Strait. It’s the first thing I ever did without asking my parents. My dad didn’t speak to me for a week,” she says.
