Michaels is decorated with an assortment of colorful and black and white tattoos of all sizes, but she has trouble picking one favorite (although the time she and Gomez got matching arrow tattoos on their hands is up there).
"My favorite one is the one on my throat that says 'speak up,' because I don't very often and I need reminders sometimes to be bold and be brave," she said. "I also have the symbol for perception on my arm. It's two triangles and three circles and it looks fully formed, but it isn't, and I've always found it really interesting how the brain can perceive something as whole, even though it's not."
Then, there is the "colorful artichoke" on her arm: "I got this lotus flower after a breakup, but I didn't do my research and I just went and did it," said Michaels. "When I left, it came out looking like a very colorful artichoke and then I went to my other tattoo artist and I had him put a big X on it and around it, it says 'bad idea' because he was and it was." Hey, at least it makes for a good story now.
