Rihanna Tickets

Rihanna is no stranger to the ink, and the popstar now takes her tattoo count up to fifteen with her newest motif: the words 'Thug Life' tattooed in pink across her knuckles, in homage to Tupac.

The Bajan songstress said that chilling out in tattoo parlours was a hobby of hers. “I like hanging out in tattoo shops. I am so intrigued by tattoos. It’s an entire culture, and I study it. Sometimes I go with friends, or just by myself. I get bum-rushed, but I don’t care. I don’t take security.”

Rihanna's tattoo fetish has even got her into trouble: the singer managed to get shop Eastside Ink fined after she illegally tattooed several of the shop's employees during a visit with her longtime tattoo artist, BangBang.
