She displayed a fresh butterfly tattoo on her upper arm above her opera-length gloves. Ari drew a second butterfly right beneath it a few months later, this time with much more detail.

However, it appears that Grande swiftly changed her mind about the design, as fans noted that a handful of her tattoos, including the butterflies, Chihiro, and Eevee, were covered in photographs from her May 2021 wedding to Dalton Gomez. Despite the fact that the two imaginary characters reappeared, it looks that she may have permanently eliminated the insects.

14. Chihiro

She debuted a big tattoo of Chihiro, a character from “Spirited Away,” on the inside of her right arm on Aug. 29, 2018. At the time, Grande commented on her Instagram Story, “Chihiro’s maturation into a capable human is a vital aspect in the flow of Spirited Away’s storyline.” “During her journey through the Spirit World, she transforms from a fearful young girl with a childish mentality to a hardworking, responsible, and brave young girl who has learned to put her fears aside for people she loves.”

“To defend her friends and rescue her parents from a magic that has transformed them into cattle, Chihiro sheds her prior self and adapts to her situation to become a fearless, quick-witted, and loyal girl,” Grande wrote in one of the most striking lines.

What was supposed to be a tribute to Grande’s hit turned into a nightmare for her. Ariana showed off a severe hand tattoo of Japanese kanji letters that were supposed to translate to “7 Rings” in early 2019. However, when native speakers understood that the characters were arranged in such a way that it truly translated to “Japanese BBQ grill” or “small charcoal grill” in English, social media exploded. Grande went back to her artist many times to repair the mistake, including adding a heart to complete the artwork and correct the message. Only if you read the tattoo from top to bottom and then left to right will you get the intended meaning.

At the conclusion of the issue, she tweeted (and then deleted) a diatribe. “Obviously, I can’t read or write kanji.” So, what exactly do you want me to do? It was done out of gratitude and affection. “Can you tell me what you want me to say?” “Do you know how many individuals make this mistake and don’t care because they enjoy how it looks?” she said. bruh… I am quite concerned. What do you want me to say or do? for real.”

“A couple of new finger tats today,” Grande said at the time on Instagram, tagging Doctor Woo, a Los Angeles-based tattoo artist. “They’re so little and delicate that they won’t even show up in this Polaroid.”

Grande was brought to the Shamrock Social Club by her then-boyfriend, Mac Miller, who was also tattooed by Woo at the time.

Grande’s “baby” tattoo appeared in May 2020, when she shared a series of self-portraits on Instagram. Many admirers saw the delicate ink right away, however, some assume she had it months ago.

Mystery tattoos

As if having more than 40 tattoos in 2020 wasn’t enough, there are a few that fans have only seen a portion of. There are words on the inside of her right index finger, an unfilled form on the inside of her left ankle, and an unaccounted-for string of letters (or maybe words) on her upper left thigh.

Given Grande’s love for on-the-spot tattoos, it’s probable that the singer has a slew of additional designs stashed away — and that more are on the way.
