Move over, love letters, Ángela Aguilar is making romantic statements with permanent ink. The rising queen of regional Mexican music isn't just singing about love these days; she's wearing it. 

Fresh off the whirlwind of marrying fellow superstar Christian Nodal, Ángela's been turning heads with her vocals and what she's etching into her skin. Her latest tattoo reveal is a poetic little "Amé" ("I Loved") on full display in her new music video "El Equivocado," a tender tribute to the man who's clearly not the wrong one.

Let's break down what Ángela's love story looks like in tattoos.

The "Amé" Tattoo

Ángela Aguilar dropped her new single "El Equivocado" on May 1, and while the song's lyrics had hearts fluttering, the video took things to another level. Filmed during a romantic yacht trip along the Mexican coast, the visuals featured sweet PDA, ocean views, and the surprise reveal of a new tattoo.

The word is more than just a past-tense verb. It's also the title of one of Nodal's more emotional tracks from his "Forajido" era. So yeah, this isn't just any tattoo, it's a lyrical love letter.

Nodal was floored. Literally teary-eyed. He told reporters, "When she played me the song 'El Equivocado,' it touched my heart deeply. Honestly, the video brought me to tears."

The Ones for Nodal

This isn't Ángela's first foray into romantic ink. Back in a 2024 interview, she casually mentioned having 10 tattoos at the time. Add "Amé" to the list, and we're now at 11, with at least three confirmed to be about Nodal.

Here's what's been inked in the name of love:

The number "11" – This one's rich in meaning. January 11 is Nodal's birthday, but it's also the month Angela's grandmother, the legendary Flor Silvestre, passed away. It's a tattoo that bridges romance and remembrance, beginnings and endings.

"Amé" – The latest addition and arguably the most poetic. A nod to Nodal's music, their shared story, and possibly a reminder that love isn't just something you feel.

Family, Faith, and Identity in Ink

Ángela may be head-over-heels, but her tattoos go deeper than romance. Several pay tribute to her roots, faith, and the family legacy she proudly carries.

The Sacred Heart + Bible verse tucked along her ribs is a powerful piece honoring her Catholic upbringing, the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and a verse from 1 John 1:9 about confession, forgiveness, and spiritual cleansing. It's a tattoo that keeps her grounded.

A flower for Flor Silvestre. On her back blooms a floral tribute to her late grandmother, one of the greatest voices in Mexican music. It's a constant reminder of the powerhouse women who came before her.

A constellation on her back, this delicate cluster of stars hasn't been explained publicly, but it's likely a nod to fate, destiny, or guidance. Maybe she believes the stars had something to do with her and Nodal finding each other.

Ángela's tattoos aren't loud or flashy. They're intimate. Personal. Quiet statements that speak volumes if you know where to look. And in an age of oversharing, there's something refreshingly sincere about that.
