It looks like " Karma " is now … a bear .
JoJo Siwahas new ink, but this time it’s permanent.
On Wednesday, June 26, JoJo was featured in an Instagram carousel posted on Costello Studio’s Insta account with a new design on her arm — a teddy bear with wings!
And, for the folks deep into the JoJo-verse of curiosities and rainbow wonders, there might be some deeper meanings behind the new ink.
JoJo worked with Costello Tattoo artist Konstantin in Los Angeles, California, for her latest artwork.
“Our man@konstantin_tattootattooed the incredible@itsjojosiwawith this masterpiece!” the Instagram caption read. “Her new album cover brought to life in ink🧸🖤Thank you JOJO for Coming in to Costello Studio, can’t wait to hear your new album!”
In the second photo, JoJo posed with hertattooartist.
This isn’t JoJo’s first permanent ink. For context, she got her first tattoo of “1031” behind her ear in August 2023 with her friendsRaven-Symonéand her wife, Miranda Maday.
On Snapchat, shesharedthe reason behind the tattoo. “The official meaning [of] 1031 is how many days my first concert tour lasted, but then ‘03 is the year that I was born,” JoJo said. However, she refrained from sharing the meaning of the other numbers. “Three is a significant number, but I can’t say why yet,” she added.
Earlier this year, JoJosharedthat she had a few more tattoos, some of which were tributes to her future kids. “I actually have two tattoos dedicated to them. This one’s dedicated to my baby girl one day, her name is Freddie,” JoJo toldAccess Hollywood.
“Then this is dedicated to twin boys. Eddie and Teddie. Freddie, Eddie, and Teddie. I want three babies. I’ve got a sperm donor lined up.”
Now, she’s apparently getting started on the other arm, but what exactly could this teddy bear mean?
The vest looks very familiar to the outfit we’ve seen the “Karma” singer wearing in social mediasnippets.
The bear is also wearing cool shades (like theseshades), so perhaps it’s blocking out the haters. Based on some reactions to her latest antics, that makes a lot of sense for JoJo.
And, if you were a fan of her viral dances and vibrant music videos — this new winged teddy might have a lot to do with her new music and album.
I’m all on board for JoJo’s winged teddy bear era!
What do you think is the meaning behind the winged teddy bear?
