However, she’s now revealed the tattoo isn’t real.
In a video titled ‘How I rocked the entire world for $300,’ Kelly admitted it was all part of a marketing campaign to get people to listen to her new song.
She revealed in the clip: “What would the rock legends that inspired me have done in 2019? To pull this off, we needed a celebrity tattoo artist, [Romeo Lacoste] to make it look real.

"He traced Harry‘s 2017 Rolling Stone cover, applied it to my face, and then a special FX makeup artist did her thing.
"BTW. We know it looked ridiculous. That was the point." She added: “The tattoo was not real. I love that Harry has introduced rock to a new generations of fans.
Plus he’s nice to look at. "This has always been about Rock & Roll. Harry is an anthem for the fans. The tattoo is gone.
"All that’s left is the music. Which is what my rockstar team and I had planned all along."
Ya got us!
