Lea Michele Gets a Tiny, Sweet Tattoo in Honor of Late Boyfriend Cory Monteith

Apr 16 2016 - 6:00pm

Lea Michele [1] has amassed quite the collection [2] of tiny tattoos, with everything from musical notes from Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" on her shoulder to a gold star on her wrist as a subtle nod to her years playing the role of Glee's HBIC, Rachel Berry. The Scream Queens actress [3] added a few more on Monday night when she comissioned NYC'S Prospect Tattoos to give her two sweet representations of her late grandmother and her late boyfriend [4], Glee costar Cory Monteith [5]. "I lost my beautiful grandma this week . . . She wasn't your typical grandma," Lea captioned an Instagram photo [6] showing off the itty-bitty coffee cup she got inked on the inside of her finger. "She gave me my first cup of coffee when I was 8 years old. She said something inappropriate to every boyfriend I've ever had. She never made pie or knit me a sweater. But she was my grandma and I loved her . . . More than anything . . . I love you Grandma."

In addition to the coffee cup, Lea also got a subtle and simple number five on her side in honor of Cory's Glee character, quarterback Finn Hudson. "And one more . . . for my Quarterback . . . #5," she wrote. The couple had been dating for almost two years until Cory's tragic death [7] in July 2013. See the photos here, and then check out Lea's latest stunning red carpet appearance [8].
