Who here intends to get the Ariana Grande tattoo?

FACEPALM: Ariana Grande Gets Tattoo In Japanese. It Doesn't Say What She Thinks It Does.

Pop singer Ariana Grande wanted to get "7 rings" in Japanese tattooed on the palm of her hand to celebrate her latest hit single. And, fittingly, a hyped Grande took to social media on Tuesday to show off the new ink.

Only, the tattoo didn’t say what Grande thought it said; her Japanese-speaking fan base quickly informed her that the tattoo means BBQ grill in Japanese.

Grande quickly deleted the embarrassing Instagram post.

I am down for sure. Ink me up!!!!


hahahahhaha. Stop getting tats in foreign languages. Never ends well. Or at least take the time to check with someone who speaks Japanese. LOL. At least she has the cash to burn it off.

[Old Glory]

Lol.

I assume she has some talent, too bad she doesn't seem to have the gift of due diligence.

[FireMan]

I wonder what it spells backwards? Maybe cook a bunch for me?

In all due respect it was close, 7 rings - bbq Grill. I mean they probably sound closely alike in Japanese.

I maintain that a promising career for a young person would be tattoo removal. There's a fortune to be made as these tattooed folks age.

[Steve R.]

Haha! I've branded my hand with a grill or a smoker a couple of times. That count?

I think I'm in love...

Small hibachi type grills are worth commemorating I suppose.

OK fact check, here is what the old interweb translator says BBQ Grill is in Japanese .....

バーベキューグリル ...that doesn't look like what's on her hand tattoo. So why the discrepancy? Polarbear777 hit the nail on the head. The two characters apart mean "7 Rings" but shown together they talk about a small tabletop cooker similar to a Hibachi. She should have had additional characters between the two she tattooed to read, 七つの指輪 which would have translated correctly. Now aren't you glad good Professor Troutman is here to learn ya about this utter nonsense?

[Murdy]

Kind of like the old joke where the woman takes a menu from a Chinese Restaurant to a tattoo shop and gets 2 characters from the cover of the menu tattooed on her, only to later learn they mean "cheap" and "good"

It’s lunchtime so I’m here to play. Who’s Ariana? Seriously...I refuse to Google. 7 rings of what...smoke? I like hibachis. It’s fun to say...hibachi hibachi hibachi! I say leave the tat and invite “Ariana” to join The Pit!

Ariana, I’m kidding. I know you are a fellow Floridian and immensely talented. Come join The Pit! (Can someone get this invite to Ariana?)

ok, I’m done 😎

When Asian's get tattoo's are they in English script?

This meme always makes me laugh.

Time for a do over. Good thing she's got 2 hands.

She is a good person, holding a benefit and donating a part of record sales to the families of 22 victims killed in the Manchester, England bombing outside of one of her concerts in May 2017.
