Since Ariana Grande permanently marked her body for the first time back in 2012 — a tiny heart on her toe to commemorate the making of her debut album "Yours Truly" — the pop star's tattoo portfolio has expanded dramatically.

The 26-year-old now lays claim to 50 known tattoos — and she got at least 34 of those since the start of 2018. Four have been completely covered by additional ink, but the rest are still at least somewhat visible, making appearances in various Instagram updates and music videos.

Here's a complete visual guide to Grande's ink, plus the stories and possible inspirations behind each one.
