At least this one can't be spelled incorrectly…
Ariana Grande has just updated her already extensive tattoo collection with some new ink. The 'Monopoly' singer shared a photo of her latest sketch on her Instagram Story, after being tatted by one of her favourite artists Mira Mariah.
Ariana Grande changed her mistranslated Japanese tattoo and here's what it looks like now
In the image, Ari shows off her right index finger, which now has a small vine wrapping around it. "My hands make me so happy," she wrote on the image.
Ariana currently has almost 40 known tattoos and her latest inking actually covers up another tattoo. In November 2018, Ariana was spotted with "9 3/4" on her finger – a reference to the fictional platform and gateway to the Hogwarts Express in King's Cross Station, London, from Harry Potter.
Some fans believe that her ex-fiancé Pete Davidson might be the reason for the cover-up. When they were engaged, Pete and Ariana got several matching tattoos. Meanwhile, Pete also has his own collection of Harry Potter tattoos, including the Sorting Hat and a Dumbledore quote.

Of course, this wouldn't be Ariana's first cover-up. In October 2018, she had a fern inked over the "reborn" tattoo she got with Pete. And then in March she hid her "always" tattoo (which was reportedly written in Pete's handwriting) with leaves across the left side of her ribcage. Hm, we're sensing a theme here…
Of course, Ariana's cover-up could have absolutely nothing to do with Pete – maybe she just loves plants? Also, Ariana already had Harry Potter tattoos before she even started dating Pete. Either way, her growing collection of foliage-themed tats continue to deliver some major ink-spiration for her fans.
