Selena Gomez Gets New Tattoo Ahead of 'Rudderless' Ischia Premiere

Selena Gomez steps off her boat taxi as she arrives in Ischia for the 2014 Ischia Global Film and Music Festival in Italy on Wednesday afternoon (July 16).

The 21-year-old actress is set to receive the Kids’ Global Award at the festival as well as premiere her new film, Rudderless.

Just before arriving at the festival, Selena got herself a new tattoo while in NYC.

“It’s meaning translates to Love Yourself,” celeb tattoo artist Bang Bang shared with EOnline. “Selena already had it written out how she wanted.”

He added, “The tattoo is about 4 inches, and didn’t take too long, probably about 30-45 minutes. The longest part is laying it out. We played with it a bit laying it out, until we found the perfect spot.”

WHAT DO YOU THINK of Selena’s new ink?

FYI: Selena is wearing a LANY backpack.
