Now we know why Miley is a lover of tattoos — Tish sports some interesting ink herself!
So, is the teen taking after her inked-up winged mom? Miley Cyrus may only be 18, but she’s already got five tattoos! But by the looks of her 44-year-old mom Tish Cyrus‘ tatted-up back, the ink obsession runs in the family.
Back in 2009, when a 17-year-old Miley wanted to get her “Just Breathe” tattoo, which is located under her left breast, Tish signed the consent form allowing her underage daughter to get permanently inked. And not only that, but the handwriting of the tattoo is Tish’s!
Granted the tattoo has a special meaning — it represents Miley’s close friend who died of cystic fibrosis and her two grandfathers, who both passed away after losing their battles to lung cancer.
But since that fateful day when Tish signed off on the tat, Miley has added to her ink, getting four more — the word “Love” on her ear, a dreamcatcher on her torso, and two small images on her fingers of a heart and a cross.
Do you think it’s OK for Miley to be all tatted up? And did her mom Tish set an example? Let us know your thoughts!

Of course Miley has mind of her own. But I think Tish is a good role model for Miley, Brandi and Noah! She seems very good mom who loves her kids A LOT.
And Billy Ray has tattoos as well as Tish. So is Billy Ray a bad role model? NO.
I think Miley has a very nice parents. They allowed her tattoos and piercings when she was underaged. My parent don’t allow even belly ring for me, I’m 15 and I’ve asked them for it since I hit 14.

Honestly I don’t think her mom is a bad role model at all. I think the pressure of the media and the people she chooses to hang out with are her influence. All kids who work with Disney grow up screwed in the head Lindsey Lohan (Parent Trap, Freak Friday) Theif and crackhead. Brittney Spears ( Mickey Mouse Club); dare I go into details? Anywho let’s just sit back and watch Miley spiral down she’s 18 this year her parents can’t control her in a few months anyway
