"I don't want this to sound like, corny or anything, but after Kobe died it made me reflect on my life. I don't people to be like, 'Oh Kobe died so you went and got a tattoo?' But, it was kinda like that because I thought about my dad and my dad had cancer when he was 40. He went through remission and he's good, but he almost died. I'm 36. And I was like, I've been wanting this tattoo for a long time and I was like, you know what? Life is so short. Just do it. Just live your best life. With no regrets. Just do it."

Given that logic, we're surprised she didn't add a Nike tattoo.
