We all remember little Hannah Montana, oh, those fond memories of rushing home to see what trouble she’d gotten into with her best friend Lily (Emily Osment). Well, this version of Miley Cyrus is certainly buried deep in her past as the actress has made a huge effort to redefine herself. There was even a whole episode about her transition on the show, “Hannah Montana”.
It was a bumpy ride, but with eyebrows raised, we can say that the starlet was successful. Let’s take a look.
Miley Cyrus Tattoos
46 tattoos, just in case you’re wondering how many she has, that’s how many the asterisk had at the last count. Pop culture is making more and more use of tattoos, and they have become an important form of expression.
Miley Cyrus’ tattoos are proof that the asterisk is on a tattoo tour and has no plans to stop in the foreseeable future. Of course, we can’t look at all 46, so here is a cross-section of Miley Cyrus tattoos.

Just Breathe
Miley’s tattooing journey began when she was just 17 years old, and we assume that it wasn’t difficult to get parental consent, especially when the meaning behind the tattoo was quite noble. Initially, there was a rumor that the first of the Miley Cyrus tattoos was a tribute to her best friend Vanessa.
Later it turned out that Vanessa was a nine-year-old girl who met Miley in a hospital, the little girl was fighting with cystic fibrosis and sadly lost the battle. They immediately shared a connection that led Miley to call her one of her best friends.
Miley’s two grandfathers also recovered from lung cancer, and that put things into perspective for the starlet, didn’t it? In this context, she said: “That reminds me not to take things for granted. I mean breathing – that was something none of them could do, the most basic thing. And I put them near my heart because that’s where they’ll always be.
The recent pictures showing Miley smoking have raised eyebrows about how sincere she was about the “Just breathe” fee and what it stands for. The tattoo is located on the star’s chest, close to her heart.
A Tiny Black Cross
Let’s move on to the fourth. In December 2010, Miley added a tiny cross tattoo on the ring finger of her right hand to her then small collection. Some say it is a tribute to God as she was raised in the Christian faith.
Miley is not the only person who loves Miley Cyrus’ tattoos, celebrities like Vanessa Hudgens expressed their enthusiasm, Vanessa said: “I want to get a little cross here [on my little finger]. I was brought up as a Catholic. Miley [Cyrus] has one there too, and it just looks so cool, like ‘I’m a good girl because I have a cross’.
Demi Lovato also got a cross tattoo the following year, but there is still speculation if it was inspired by Miley.
The Sugar Skull Tattoo
Forget matching t-shirts, matching tattoos are the way they go, or at least the way Miley and her boyfriend went. OK, here’s some additional information; the sugar skull is a symbol associated with the Day of the Dead – a Mexican holiday.
Strange choice, but here’s a little more info to put it all into perspective. The Day of the Dead is a holiday that is celebrated throughout Mexico and around the world, allowing family and friends to pray for their deceased loved ones. So there you have it, people, skulls are not always evil.
Bad
Need we say more? We shouldn’t, but we will anyway. At first glance, the red inscription could be interpreted as a temporary tattoo, it says ‘BAD’.
If ever there was a “good girl gone bad”, it’s Miley Cyrus, and she has the tattoo to prove it. The tattoo was not only a statement but it was also inspired by Michael Jackson’s seventh studio album.
Vegemite
It’s a popular Australian yeast paste, her boyfriend is Australian, we feel that Miley got it as a tribute to Liam, it’s weird to get your childhood boyfriend’s favorite snack tattooed on your arm, but why not?
This is the star’s most recent tattoo and it’s only three months old, but we see a lot more ink in Miley’s future.

Miley Cyrus Tongue
Even more popular than the theme of the Miley Cyrus tattoos is that of the Miley Cyrus tongue. Since her time as Hannah Montana, the actress has often stuck out her tongue, but certainly not as much as now.
As we recently discovered, there is a method to fight the madness of the star. It’s not just about attention, and we think you should hear it in your own words.
She told Rolling Stone Magazine, “I just stick out my tongue because I hate smiling in pictures. It’s so embarrassing. It looks so corny. Now people expect it – like: ‘Stick your tongue out! All the other girls are so serious – like this is my moment on the red carpet, I’m in my ball gown and I look pretty. Something is empowering about what I do now,” she added in conclusion, “because there is not one thing that defines what beauty is.
So if that tongue has directly pissed you off, you’d better get used to it because Miley is here to make a statement.
Miley Cyrus Teeth
Get ready for some pretty pictures, folks, because since when do we know Miley Cyrus as shy and reserved? The actress was, believe it or not, removed 5 teeth in March 2015, and she was not prepared to go through this ordeal alone. Together with the pictures on Instagram, she published: “Twas in da best handzzzzzz doe. Nurse @cheytom & Dr. @stellamaxwell took gooood Currrr from me & muah pearly whites, “She also posted a picture of her with her mother, Trish Cyrus, sitting next to her.
