Thank the eagle eyed fans for this one.

Zendaya wowed at the 2025 Golden Globe Awards on Sunday, January 5 for more reasons than one. The Challengers actress wowed in a custom Louis Vuitton gown and went old Hollywood glam for one of two looks for the night—but the moment that social media couldn't stop buzzing about was in the details.

When the actress appeared on the red carpet, fans noticed that Zendaya—who had the chance to blind prying eyes with her thousands of dollars in sparkling jewelry worn on her hands and neck—accessorized with body ink. Zendaya sported a very tiny tattoo placed on the outside of her left breast, which left people believing the ink is a subtle nod to her boyfriend, Tom Holland.

The tattoo in question was a tiny little "T"—potentially for Tom—written in script, with it slightly peeking out above the bust of her orange satin Louis Vuitton gown. Though Zendaya wore a slinky second slip gown for the rest of the night, the "T" wasn't visible and could have been covered up by makeup. In short: Don't expect Zendaya to confirm that the tattoo is meant to be for her longtime boyfriend, as the couple is relatively private with sharing details about the inner workings of their seriously enviable relationship.

Zendaya's tattoo debut wasn't the only thing that people were talking about when she arrived at the Golden Globes. During her walk of the red carpet, the actress wore a large ring on her finger that fans also speculated to be an engagement ring from Holland. On Monday, TMZ reported that the two were engaged after Holland proposed over the holidays. InStyle has reached out to their reps, however, has not received a response.
