If you’re already thinking about your next tattoo, this article is for you. Don’t worry, you’re not alone. In fact, it’s becoming increasingly common, even among artists.
It’s likely that your favorite singer has ink on their skin with a special message (or not), which has been analyzed by their millions of fans. But how would you feel if I told you that there is a list of celebrities who have inspired people to get tattoos?
The ranking, prepared by Preply, is led by Ariana Grande, whose tattoos accumulate the most searches on Google. That means many people are inspired by the messages and numbers she wears on her skin, and make them their own. Ariana has more than 50 tattoos, and accumulates over 1.3 million searches per year. So, her tattoos may be on other people’s bodies too.
This data isn’t surprising considering that in 2019, an error in one of the singer’s tattoos went viral all over the world. It was made to honor her album “7 Rings,” and she wanted to tattoo it in Japanese, but the translation was wrong. The word that was read was “Shichirin,” which actually means “little BBQ,” not the title of her album.
But that’s not all. The list goes on, with Harry Styles and Justin Bieber having over a million searches each. Rihanna, Pete Davidson, Jimin from BTS, Angelina Jolie, Ben Affleck, Shia Labeouf, and Johnny Depp are the rest of the celebrities who occupy the top 10 of this list.
