I got this during my dad's first death anniversary kasi I want to remember his love for me.... ang naisip ko parang si papa lang talaga ang magmamahal sa akin ng tunay. And I get it in the language of French kasi may dad's nickname is Frans. So parang it all ties together. And I put it here (wrist) para I will always remember to live my life to the fullest para nakikita ko talaga siya," explained Magalona, the daughter of the late OPM icon Francis Magalona.</p><p>"Then the next one I got is the tiara tattoo because I am the daughter of the King of Rap, so I am a princess," she added, showing the tattoo on her nape.</p><p>She also got inked on her right hip. "Ang nakalagay all you need is faith, trust and a little bit of pixie dust. Because I feel that I'm a fairy, we're fairies and we're just here to sprinkle good and energy," she said.</p><p>The actress also has a Hello Kitty ribbon on her right wrist.</p><p>"I am obsessed with Hello Kitty kasi when I see Hello Kitty, she brings me so much joy and she's a worldwide icon. She's her own brand and she's your friend.

I was there for one year, I said I'm going to do things once a month that I've never done before. So I said on that one month, I'm going to walk into a random tattoo shop and get a tattoo. So when I got this, I got the third-eye chakra, the heart chakra and then the manipura chakra which are solar plexus. So these are the different energy centers that we meditate on. And then when I meditate on these gateways it makes me meditate even deeper. It just reminds me my time in Bali of how I became spiritual, how I became more conscious and how I connected to myself on a deeper level," she said.</p><p>Before leaving Bali, Magalona also got a "be love" tattoo. </p><p>For Magalona, her tattoos are like her battle scars.</p><figure class='op-interactive'><iframe height='315' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/xAedRdQNWZ8?enablejsapi=1' width='560'></iframe></figure><div class='iwantbar'>Watch more News on <a href='https://www.iwanttfc.com/#!/browse/Genres/News/tag_id_genres/id_news' target='_blank'>iWantTFC</a></div><p>"It reminds you of the pain that you went through and how you were able to survive and overcome it and it even made you stronger kasi nga pain is a potential power, hindi ba?" she said.</p><ul class='op-related-articles'>	<li><a href='https://news.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/11/17/22/maxene-magalona-slowly-getting-back-up-again-after-another-fall'>Maxene Magalona slowly getting back up again 'after another fall'</a></li>	<li><a href='https://news.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/10/21/22/maxene-on-separation-endings-can-be-beautiful-too'>Maxene Magalona on separation: 'Endings can be beautiful too'</a></li></ul><p><br/><strong>Related video:</strong></p><figure class='op-interactive'><iframe height='315' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/fE7qDqzGqaI?enablejsapi=1' width='560'></iframe></figure><div class='iwantbar'>Watch more News on <a href='https://www.iwanttfc.com/#!/browse/Genres/News/tag_id_genres/id_news' target='_blank'>iWantTFC</a></div>
