Miley Talks Tats

Filed under: Miley Cyrus

Miley Cyrus received her first ever tattoo last month, and while sitting down with Harper's Bazaar, Cyrus went into depth about her new ink.

The tat, which reads "Just Breathe," is in her mother's handwriting and in honor of Miley's close friend who passed away from cystic fibrosis in 2007 as well as both of her grandfathers, who passed away from lung cancer.

"It reminds me not to take things for granted, I mean, breathing—that was something none of them could do, the most basic thing," said Miley. "And I put it near my heart because that is where they will always be."

We're on board with that tat more than we are with permanently scrawling Marilyn Monroe quotes all over your body!

      Dumb place for a tat, what's cute about that?



    2. 2

      whyyyy did she get a tattoo?



    3. 3

      She just wants to keep showing off her chest. This isn't new news……



    4. 4

      didn't realize under a boob was "close to your heart"………



    5. 5

      How nice, she's only a back tatoo and a bad bleach job away from Truck Stop hooker.



    6. 6

      Thats beautiful and well thought out. She also put it in a place that was easy to conceal which is smart.



    7. 7

      i thought her friend died from cystic fibrosis?



    8. 8

      I bet ur ok with Angelina scrawling junk all over her body though.

      Re: RobPnMeShouldB – your heart is infact under your left breast.

      Isn't that a a bit…weird to write 'just breathe', when her granddad had lung cancer?



    11. 11

      She didn't want it to be cute,but to have a meaning,and i think that's a great meaning!!Love ya Miles!!
      By the way,the things she said in that interview are really interesting,you can see by reading it that she matured a lot.

      good for her….it has meaning and inspiration to her and it is a fine tribute to those who were close to her. It is in a place that can be easily concealed and not flashy and in your face. Very classy and sweet….which is more than you can say for some of the dumb idiot celebs who put the most god-awful ugly ass tattoos all over their bodies like Wino and Rihanna and Angelina, etc. I am liking her more and more…..



    13. 13

      it originally said Justin and she got it fixed to say just breathe…just sayin..

      Re: samanthaik – you're missing my point…..



    15. 15

      At least she thought it out. A lot of people don't do that with tattoos then end up regretting them later.

      I love how if you have tattoos you are automatically labeled as trashy, ridiculous.

      BabyJokerSisterz - What is wrong with the location of the tattoo? She put it in a place that would be easy to conceal if she isn't in a bathing suit. How horrendous and ugly. Also, sometimes, people don't get the tattoos because they are "cute". Most people get tattoos because they mean something to them - at least she isn't just trying to be trendy and trying to be an individual.

      xSoLongAmory - Why do you add 4 y's to why? Maybe try not typing like a moron and people may take you somewhat seriously.

      Lurchetta - So her wearing a bathing suit and having a tattoo on her chest is her just wanting to show of her chest? Is she out there flopping her boobs around? No, shes wearing a bathing suit in a completely acceptable situation to do so. Grow up.

      RobPnMeShouldB - Yes, under your left boob is close to your heart, where else is she supposed to get it? On her boob? I bet if it was Robert P's face or anything Twilight related it would be a wonderful fantastic tattoo regardless of location?

      Spindoc - So, because someone has a tattoo they just need a back tattoo and a bleach job and bam - truck stop hooker? How do you feel about Megan Fox, Angelina Jolie or any other celebrities with tattoos.

      You all are worse than him!

      Re: Slutstick – HAHA!!! get off your high horse and stop chearleading for a disney star……..

      How stupid. How can you even see a tattoo that's under your boob?



    19. 19

      the mean is more important that if it´s cute!!



    20. 20

      You already posted this.

      Re: RobPnMeShouldB – I'm not on a high horse, I am just knocking all of you off of yours. Also, I am not cheering for a Disney star - I am defending a person's right to get a meaningful tattoo and not be trashed for it. I could give two shits less about her, the tattoo has a wonderful meaning, is in a good place and doesn't look trashy so good for her for getting a tattoo with an actual meaning as opposed to those who get tattoos just to be trendy (like religious symbols when they don't know the meaning etc.).

      Also, what WAS your point of "didn't realize under a boob was "close to your heart" "?? Unless that is your only comeback for someone saying something you said didn't make any sense.

      Re: RobPnMeShouldB
      Also, it is "cheerleading" dear, not chear. Maybe you should stop skipping your English classes.



    23. 23

      Okay Miley, you made your point, now please don't get any more tattoos



    24. 24

      i don't care what anyone else says, this is a great tattoo. my boyfriend has cystic fibrosis and while he isn't as unfortunate as other who have it, it does scare me. i'm not a huge miley fan but i definitely give her props for this.



    25. 25

      how stupid!! if both of her grandparents died of lung cancer, then get a tat that reads JUST DON"T SMOKE!!



    26. 26

      It's also illegal in most states fro minors to get a tat.



    27. 27

      Great so because I have always wanted to get just breathe on my wrist as I have n.s.i.p had l.c.h and know people with cf that means as soon as I get it people are just going to be like "oh that's just like mileys tattoo" Yeah thanks alot bitch.

      Re: kittykat3544

      You also forget she's basically trailor trash tho, she probably got it done in her camper van.



    29. 29

      She so freaking gross i hate her!



    30. 30

      This is like 5 months late you dumbfuck! everyone on this planet knew she had a fucking tattoo! she even tried to get Taylor Swift to get the same one..



    31. 31

      I think it's awesome she got this in honor of people she loved. If Gaga did this, Perez and everyone else would be praising her and crying because of the honor. Please. Give this girl a break.



    32. 32

      Crazy, I have cystic fibrosis.



    33. 33

      this is probably the only thing that would make me like miley cyrus. tattoos as tribute to people you have lost are the only ones worth havin imo



    34. 34

      Actually, Lindsay had that tattoo long before Miley. She has "Breathe" in white ink on her wrist. So Miley is a copy-cat. And as I recall, Miley's "reasoning" behind it is nearly word-for-word the same exact reasoning/meaning Lindsay had behind hers. Innnerestinggg!

      And I'm not biased or anything, not a fan of either girl really. Just settin' the record straight :)

      I Think That The Meaning Behind The Tat Is Cool But Shes A Bit Young And Its Permanent! Isnt It Illegal To Get A Tat When Your Under 18 In The US? Somethings Wrong With That Kid. . .

      i love it. its got a great meaning and coming for a hot shot celeb it shows that she isnt as selfish as people make her out to be.
