Selena Gomez boasts a tattoo depicting the Roman numeral “LXXVI,” or the number 76, at the nape of her neck. Keith Scott McCurdy is known for inking famous faces such as Rihanna and Cara Delevigne with ink tattoos.
“Love Yourself First” written in Arabic on her back.
Selena Gomez recently unveiled another back tattoo from Bang Bang NYC; this marks number 16 in her collection. Her latest tattoo addition features the words “Love Yourself First,” written in Arabic on her back. This large design starts below her neck and cascades between her shoulder blades.
“G” on her neck
Gomez has long been an admirer of body art. Most recently, she got inked up with a “G” on the back of her neck as part of her latest ink work. Gomez received her second Roman numeral tattoo to pay homage to one of her family members, specifically her mother, Mandy Teefey, who was born 76 years ago.
“Om” on her hip
Tattoo artist Livia Kollias recently chose a provocative depiction of the Hindu spiritual symbol “Om.” Bang Bang, Gomez’s tattoo artist, shared photos of her latest design on Instagram. The logo represents an auspicious humming sound associated with Hinduism and Buddhism that symbolizes spirit.
“Sunshine” on her right foot
Gomez sports a tattoo of her grandmother’s name that reads, “Sunshine.” While its meaning has not been officially revealed, many speculate it could be in tribute. Selena also sports an ear tattoo commemorating her special relationship with her half-sister, Gracie Teefey, since their parents have divorced.
“Rare” on her neck
Selena Gomez has never been shy to show her tattoos, and recently added one more to commemorate the release of her third solo album, “Rare.” This ink marks its release date as January 2020. Early this year, she also got a rosary tattoo on her upper left thigh that depicts two hands clasped together with a rosary draped around them – with help from celebrity tattoo artist Bang Bang to bring this design to life.
“Gracie” on her ear
Gomez took to social media and posted a video showing off her new tattoo, tagging the parlor she recently visited and showing the world what tribute to her sister she got on her ear – with an intricate “Gracie.” This new piece of art is complex and features an elaborate blooming pink rose with lower shading that cascades down the singer’s spine. Her bob is parted down the middle and towards her shoulders to display this breathtaking design fully.
“Music Note” on her wrist
Gomez may have given up music to pursue acting full-time, but she still keeps one tattoo as a constant reminder of her musical roots. Gomez visited a tattoo parlor in 2012 to get a small music note tattooed onto her wrist. Fans initially speculated this tattoo referred to Justin Bieber, but Gomez has disproved this assumption. She also got a lowercase “g” tattoo behind her ear as an homage to half-sister Gracie Teefey.
“God Who Strengthens Me” on her chest
Selena Gomez revealed she got this tattoo as an altered version of Philippians 4:13, her favorite Bible verse. The phrase, “God who strengthens me,” reminds us daily to trust the Almighty God. Gomez wears a small “1” tattoo on her right rib cage as a tribute to Courtney Lopez – her true friendship and longstanding partner in life. It signifies their mutual appreciation of one another as they celebrate their relationship.
