Look What Britney Did to Her Neck!Britney Spears has defaced the back of her neck with a series of tattoos that she thought were Hebrew symbols for "new year" or "new era." But the symbols she actually had etched onto her skin mean...nothing at all. They're just gibberish, reports the United Kingdom's Mirror.
Britney, who recently developed quite a devotion to Kabbalah, the mystical form of Judaism to which she was introduced by Madonna, wanted to honor her newfound beliefs with the tattoos. An unnamed inside source told The Mirror, "She had hoped it would say 'new year' or 'new era.' It seems she's got the words the wrong way round. It is meaningless, which will come as a bit of a blow to Britney. She's taken to Kabbalah pretty seriously, and this was a big deal for her." Britney may not realize that tattoos are forbidden under Jewish law.
This isn't the first time one of Britney's tattoos went wrong. She had what she thought was the Japanese word for "mysterious" tattooed on her hip only to find out that in fact the symbol means "strange." She got that tattoo with actress Taryn Manning when the two were filming "Crossroads." When Manning visited Japan, she discovered the error. "It was when I was getting changed in Japan recently that a woman laughed, and I found out the truth," Manning told The Mirror. "Britney was absolutely devastated when I told her."
Britney also has a tattoo of an angel on her back, a butterfly script on her toe that she thinks says "freedom," and a flower circling her second toe that she now thinks is ugly.
