The Bangerz starlet, Miley Cyrus has learned to tattoo! Well, sort of. Cyrus has now become another famous face to get tattooed by celebrity tattooer Keith “Bang Bang” McCurdy. Owner of Bang Bang NYC in the Lower East Side, as well as Freshly Inked cover artist, Bang Bang is known for his incredible line work, use of realism, and celebrity clientele. And in exchange for getting inked by Bang Bang, his clientele are sometimes asked to give him a tattoo right back.

Earlier this week, Cyrus was able to score not one, but two pieces by Bang Bang, a script piece that read “Love Yer Brain” after a Flaming Lips song and a small crescent moon on her arm. In return, Bang Bang gave her a quick crash course on how to tattoo and let her ink a matching crescent moon on him. These new tattoos are just some of the recent pieces Cyrus has added to her collection, including last month’s matching tattoo with Wayne Coyne.
