Ariana Grande Tries And Fails To Fix Botched Japanese Tattoo

**SNIP**

She also shared the text conversation with the tutor who specifically advised her to add the character above the initial tattoo in order to make sense in Japanese, as characters are typically read top to bottom, right to left.

But Grande included the new character below the original tattoo with a drawing of a heart, instead, which resulted in the ink making even less sense than the original.

Neither of these configurations are coherent in Japanese, as BuzzFeed notes, so most people would likely read the phrase left to right as 七輪指♡, which roughly translates to “small charcoal grill finger ♡.”

While the tattoo is likely to fade away due to its location, it should serve as a temporary reminder that this experience taught Grande everything (love, pain, patience, etc.) except Japanese.

...small charcoal grill finger ♡...

Forget it. She's rolling.

[Telepathic Intruder]

She’s going at this the wrong direction. She needs to write a hit song about a BBQ grill.

She’s getting more recognition for her song.

[gundog]

Grills just wanna have fun.

[KarlInOhio]

She should just remake Turning Japanese by the Vapors. Cover her body with nonsensical tattoos for the video.

[caltaxed]

Lots of free publicity over a (supposedly) botched tattoo. She’s a dysfunctional airhead and most likely messed up but she really keeps her name in the news.

“small charcoal grill finger ♡.”

That could be an excellent addition to the Popeye's, Brown's, Church's, Canes or Chick-Fil-A menu.

Ariana Grande recorded in a donut shop said:

“I hate Americans,” she continued. “I hate America.”
On July 8, the singer issued an apology for her “poor choice of words” in a statement, saying …..

That’s enough. We need more honesty from the leftists. Being born better looking than Maxine Waters isn’t everything.

People think she is “hot”. I think she is fugly looking and a detestable personality.

[Impala64ssa]

Arianna Grande. Sounds like some overpriced swill at Starbucks.

[Calvin Locke]

Do you think she’s having any regerts about following the herd?

[dfwgator]

In the old days, you got a tattoo to stick out.

Now you get a tattoo to fit in.

[Telepathic Intruder]

Never heard of her until the tattoo thing. My interest in music got stuck sometime last century. Does that make me sound old?

[caltaxed]

Karmann Ghia is an air cooled head. Exceptional styling for the time.

Didn't VW advertise the Ghia as a car for people who absolutely cant stand the looks of a VW

[euram]

what was it supposed to say, “watch out, I spit on donuts”?

[gaijin]

My reading:

“7 Wheel finger love”

I understand the characters, no problem.

I don’t understand what she’s trying to express at all.

"Arianna Grande. Sounds like some overpriced swill at Starbucks.”

Overpriced taco at Taco Bell.
