She revealed toBillboardthat her favorite tattoo is the one she has of his name on her hand.

“I’ve gotten like multiple for him.

I think I got like six a week after [his death].

This one is very special to me,” she said.

However, just because Barrett is covered in ink doesn’t mean she’s done getting tattoos.

Barrett even admitted toWomen’s Health,“I love anything baggy.”

That could be why she partnered with Kim Kardashian’s shapewear brand, SKIMS.

Barrett’s beauty aesthetic is a bit more quirky.

“I love the ’90s brow, and sometimes I will pluck way too much,” she said.

Barrett told Kerrang that she had a connection with Kitty immediately upon meeting him through a breeder.

“He just brings me a lot of comfort,” she said.

She continued, “He’s so connected with me.

He falls asleep on my chest.

He wakes up in the morning.

I swear he talks back to me.”

Fans, however, seem to be just as obsessed with Barrett.
