Rihanna's Gun Tattoo Artist Speaks!

Filed under: Rihanna > Chris Brown

Do you know what you do when you're young and you have too much money?

You fly your favorite tattoo artist out to tat up your friend, and then you get some dumb tattoos of your own!

According to Life & Style, Rihanna flew artist BangBang out from New York last week.

A "big advocate of guns" (in case the name didn't give it away), BangBang tells the mag he suggested a tattoo of a firearm after RiRi rejected several other sketches.

They toyed with the idea of placing the tattoo on her shoulders but eventually decided against it considering RiRi's Cover Girl status.

So the violent image ended up under her ribs.

BangBang supposed that, considering RiRi's current situation, she selected the gun because "she kicks ass and everybody supports her! She can do whatever she wants. She’s one of the nicest and sweetest people I know. She has a lot of really good friends supporting her. We didn't talk about why she specifically got it. She’s a rock. She's just thinking about having a great time now."

Maybe it's for self defense?

Chris Brown better watch himself!

      I hate guns and this is worse to me than if she had bought a gun for protection that is . This is just promoting them for violence, it's not like it's promoting them for protection, if so then she should get a tattoo of a condom.

      i like it, it has a nice edge to it. and it'll be hidden from the eye if she wants it to be, it's not that hard. there's probably tons of celebs with tattoos you don't even know about. she's young and having fun.



    5. 105

      Maybe she let him bangbang her!!



    6. 106

      that'll look terrible in 50 years when she's old and wrinkley.

      Re: popculturelover

      thats not a real tattoo. its henna. they use henna in the caribbean for religious and spiritual meaning.

      so, its obviously rihanna.



    8. 108

      Sweet! Mandonna once wore gun high heels!

      LEAVE THEM THE FUCK ALONE!



    9. 109

      Oh God! I hope she doesn't shave her head and use her umbrella to beat down the paps cars…LOL.



    10. 110

      LOOK AT HOW UGLY SHE IS W/O MAKEUP. SHE LOOKS LIKE A BULL. LOOK AT THAT BELL-PEPPER NOSE AND HER TALL ASS FOEHEAD@! SHE IS HIDEOUS. LOOKS LIKE SHE RESUMED HER BLEACHING AND NOW HAS A JHERI CURL. PLEASE WAKE ME WHEN IT'S OVER!

      I HATE HER!

      i dont care about the guns. whats the one on her hand?



    12. 112

      She kicks ass?? How about kicking Chris Brown's ass?!



    13. 113

      She will take photos of new tattoos but still does not speak out about the assault she suffered by her boyfriend?? This is just beyond ridiculous!! I don't even understand this type of behavior.



    14. 114

      hmm dont like tattos very much but its her choice if she wants it done she should whatever makes her happy



    15. 115

      Maybe it's because her ass is ghetto fab and her image team have been packaging her as a nice pop star. Not for long though. Princess RiRi is doing a fine job of screwing her wholesome sweet victim image up. You can take the girl out of the ghettos of the Bahamas (lol that just sounds funny), but you can't take the ghetto out of the girl.



    16. 116

      Sad. My respect for RiRi is officially gone.



    17. 117

      This is some crazy whore…she needs really a lot of mental help…she is just an idiot…i had a different opinion about her but after all this shit with beat down boyfriend i realized that she is just a scum bag as he is…do not want to hear her music or see her shitty face…



    18. 118

      I just died a little inside.



    19. 119

      i liked the other tats she's got but this one i don't get…



    20. 120

      What's wrong w/ this girl. I thought she had some class and common sense but I guess that was just for show.



    21. 121

      It's not about tattoos per se; it's the message sent, stupid! Given the rampant gun violence in the Black community —four cops murdered in Oakland this week and Black men dying daily from drug and gang violence—I'd say she's either cluelessly dumb or is promoting the instrument of destruction destroying Black men and neighborhoods. Someone should get a tattoo of a *book* to show her who's really down with the 'community'.



    22. 122

      I'm so sick of her I want to give her a bitch slap.



    23. 123

      Re: Woodman – I think you need to get laid.



    24. 124

      Stupid ideal and BIG mistake!



    25. 125

      hahaha "she kicks ass and everybody supports her!" hahaha funny people! she is patetic, weak, ugly, classless and without talent and personality! I'm agree with u perez, Chris Brown must be so scary to see his bitch with that…gun! hahaha



    26. 126

      So now she's a bad ass? Where was the bad ass when CB was beating the crap out of her? Where was the "tough, rock" when the DA wanted her to testify. Tat yourself up with whatever you want, but you were, are and will continue to be a victim!



    27. 127

      ohh wooow



    28. 128

      ah yes….a gun tat…how fitting…will be the talk of the ME's Office after that asshole puts a cap in her head….ghetto-tude all the way….



    29. 129

      Re: Miss Maggie – because she is an idiot….



    30. 130

      SHES DOESNT KICK ASSES, THEY KICK HER ASSS. SHE'S SO RIDICULOUS



    31. 131

      Re: popculturelover – YES…she DOES



    32. 132

      This is a NON-STORY. This tattoo artist, BangBang came across like the tool he is on Friday's Showbiz Tonite.



    33. 133
