PHOTOS Miley Cyrus’ Leonardo Da Vinci heart tattoo by Kat Von D
Miley Cyrus got very upset with the media last week after reports circulated that she and fiance Liam Hemsworth had split up. Adding fuel to the fire, Miley was later spotted out and about without her engagement ring, which she later explained was because she was having it repaired. “I am so sick of La,” Miley tweeted on March 6, “And sick of the lies that come with it. I didn’t call off my wedding. Taking a break from social media. #draining”
Although it appears that Miley will figuratively be trying harder to hide her heart, she is literally doing quite the opposite by getting a new heart tattoo by none other than LA Ink‘s Kat von D herself! But the heart tattoo is not your typical cartoonish fare — Miley went all Hannah Italiannah by getting an elaborate (albeit diminutive) recreation of one of Leonard da Vinci’s anatomical illustrations of the human heart from the 16th century!
Kat tweeted the photo above along with the excited words, “Just did the RADDEST tattoo on @MileyCyrus -a miniature rendition of a daVinci anatomical heart! ❤”
The new “two hearts” tattoo is on Miley’s right forearm just below her mysterious VIIXCI Roman numeral tattoo.
For those diligent Cyrusologists, here is a better quality image of the original Leonard da Vinci heart illustration, which dates from approximately 1510:
