Ariana Grande 'Fixes' Botched Tattoo to 'Japanese Barbecue Finger'

The singer's brand new tattoo is no longer "embarrassing.' Ariana Grande made a decision to fix her palm ink after her followers told her the Japanese characters did not say '7 Rings" as she was intending but 'BBQ Grill!'

The American singer's attempt to ink an ode to her hit single "7 Rings" backfired Wednesday, after social media quickly chimed in to tell her the characters actually translated to shichirin - a small charcoal grill. The modified tattoo on her palm now legibly reads: "Japanese BBQ finger" which in some ways, only exacerbates the issue with the original tat.

Taking to Instagram last night, Grande revealed she had the tattoo touched up with the kanji 指, which means "finger", so the combined kanji would infer the meaning "ring". "And to my doctor for the lidocaine shots (no joke)", Grande wrote. She also made a point to inform her followers that she is a "huge fan of tiny BBQ grills".

"Indeed, I left out "つの指" which should have gone in between", Grande wrote, using an expletive to indicate that the process was painful. "Miss u man. I actually really liked u (sic)".

Since deleted, however, the singer first sported her unbothered attitude about the ink in a tweet. Online reported. "It hurt like f*** n still looks tight".

"BBQ grill queen, " joked another. I wouldn't have lasted one more symbol lmao (laughing my a- off).

Ariana Grande appears to have 'fixed' her most recent tattoo, but only in the broadest sense possible.

Not so. Once again, Japanese fans and folks with even a passing interest in the language have pointed out a problem: because of how the new kanji is separated from the others, the tattoo is gibberish if read from right-to-left, top-to-bottom.
