The pop idol has a lot of tattoos on her body - at least thirty of them, and her fans are always eager to know their meanings. Here are some of the most prominent Ariana Grande tattoos:
- Heart: When she was recording her debut album, the singer tattooed a little heart on her toe. It is difficult to get a glimpse of this drawing, but the star mentioned that she got it to celebrate the happiest and most enlightening year of her life and that this reminder will help her look back and never take anything for granted. By the way, she has more than one tattooed heart on her body and even a song with the same name.
- "Mille Tendresse": On the back of her neck, the star has two words in French, which translate to "a thousand tendernesses". The quote comes from "Breakfast at Tiffany's", one of the singer's favourite movies.
- "Bellissima": This art is a nice nod to the pop star's Italian heritage. Besides, "Bellissima", meaning "gorgeous", was a nickname given to the singer by her late grandfather. She has this tattoo on her left side, below the arm.
- "Honeymoon": This tattoo appeared sometime around the "Honeymoon" world tour that the musician went on in 2015. It was named after her own song "Honeymoon Avenue" from her debut album. In addition to this one, she also got a Hebrew phrase inspired by Kabbalah faith tattooed on her finger.
- "Baby Doll": Fans believe that this is another nickname for Ariana that her grandfather gave to her. The tattoo "baby doll" is on the exact same finger as "honeymoon".
- "A": It may be obvious that the "A" is the first initial of the singer's name But in reality, it is deeper than that - she got this tattoo to show her appreciation for her best friend, Alexa. Dr Woo, the LA tattoo artist, painted this one for the star. Later, Grande got a Venus symbol on another finger, which was also done by Dr Woo.
- Worker Bee: On the first anniversary of the devastating terrorist attack that took place after her concert, the singer got a worker bee tattoo behind her ear. The bee is the symbol of Manchester, and this way, she promised herself not to forget the victims of this tragedy.
- Lumos: Ariana is a hardcore fan of Harry Potter, so she got a tattoo that says "Lumos", one of the charms that was used in the books.
- Cloud: The musician uses cloud emojis very often, which indicates that she loves clouds. This was one of her matching tattoos with her ex-fiance, Pete Davidson. She got many more matching art on their bodies with Pete, even though they separated since then and some of the tattoos were covered.
- "H2GKMO": After Grande's engagement to Pete Davidson, they got an "H2GKMO" acronym as a matching tattoo, which stands for "honest to god, knock me out".
Unfortunately, after their separation, Davidson covered his tattoo with a black arrow.
The superstar has a lot of other inked drawings on her body, which are no less prominent. She got a "Court" tattoo as a tribute to her good friend Courtney, a lightning bolt behind her ear and the number 561 as her hometown area code.
She even has a few fictional characters tattooed, such as Chihiro from the anime "Spirited Away" and the Pokemon Eevee. Some of the Pete Davidson-related tattoos were covered, such as "reborn" replaced with an olive branch, or the name "Pete" on her ring finger covered by a black heart. She also has a large moon and stars art on her hand, some big leaves on her stomach, and the name of her dog Myron to honour his previous owner - her late ex-boyfriend Mac Miller.

Ariana was also seen hanging out together with her ex-boyfriend Big Sean, but it looked like they just met up for friendly or business purposes. The star is busy with her career and is getting ready for the new tour, so she might not have a lot of time for dating, but she is still on friendly and nice terms with most of her exes.
