Scarlett Johansson is in a New York state of mind, judging by a new tattoo that the starlet revealed while promoting “The Avengers” this weekend.

Anyone not studying Johansson closely at a photocall in Rome, Italy, on Saturday might have thought that the actress was simply wearing two bracelets around her right wrist. But closer examination reveals that while the actress slipped on a green-and-gold bauble, a second chain encircling her wrist is actually tattooed on.

The tattoo appears almost like a rosary, with an inked charm dangling onto the star’s hand. The anvil-like charm features the phrase “I [heart] NY” in tiny letters.

Johansson’s love of New York makes sense. The actress was not only born in New York City, but also lives here. She is currently dating New York ad executive Nate Naylor .

This is not Johansson’s first tattoo. She has a colorful sunset inked on her left forearm, as well as a simple black design above her ankle.
