Miley Cyrus has recently added a new tattoo to her collection, surprising fans just days after admitting to regretting a majority of her previous ink. The pop singer, known for her bold and eclectic tattoo choices, shared her reflections on her tattoos during a candid interview with The New York Times. In a clip posted on TikTok, Cyrus confessed that she regretted “80 percent” of her tattoos, calling many of them a “mistake.” Despite this admission, she quickly followed up with a fresh design, sparking renewed interest in her body art.
On Monday, tattoo artist Michelle Santana took to Instagram to showcase the latest addition to Cyrus’ extensive tattoo collection. The new piece, positioned below the singer’s right shoulder, features the word “Muse” in elegant cursive script. The subtle design stands out as a departure from some of Cyrus’ more prominent tattoos, offering a refined touch to her overall collection.
Santana shared a close-up photo of the tattoo on Instagram, captioning it, “?Queen @mileycyrus ?.” According to Page Six, the tattoo may hold a special significance to Cyrus, possibly connected to her mother, Tish. In an Instagram post from April, Cyrus described a song she wrote for her mother, calling her “my muse.” She added, “I am honored today to have it out in the world hopefully bringing some joy.”
The timing of Cyrus’ new ink is particularly poignant, as it came shortly after she expressed regret over certain tattoos. When asked about past decisions she still second-guessed, the singer responded, “80 percent of my tattoos.” She elaborated, explaining that while she didn’t regret them enough to remove them, some of her designs now felt out of place. “I love my cat, but I didn’t need that. I love my dog, but, like, having a pitbull in every picture for the rest of my life is kind of intense,” she said, before adding, “There’s just a few I could do without.”
While Cyrus may have mixed feelings about some of her tattoos, the new piece reveals that tattoos remain a deeply personal form of self-expression for the artist. Whether reflecting on the past or adding new designs, her ink continues to tell a story of both growth and creativity.
