Rihanna & Chris Brown Get New Matching Tattoos
Rihanna and Chris Brown have been spotted sportin’ some matching new ink on their hands recently and it was speculated that the tats, while identical, were only temporary. Well, according to Ri Ri herself, the tattoos are permanent tribal designs that ChRihanna got done in New Zealand and represent strength and love … interesting, no?

Got ink? Rihanna certainly does. The singer showed off a new tattoo on her right wrist Wednesday, as she chatted with reporters at a UNICEF event. “It’s tribal,” she said at the charity’s annual Snowflake Lighting Ceremony in New York’s Grand Army Plaza. “It represents strength and love.” Rihanna also revealed that she got the exotic-looking tat while in New Zealand for a recent tour date. “It’s their traditional way of tattooing,” she said of the Maori-inspired geometric design. “I always wanted [one].” But even for a tattoo enthusiast like Rihanna, this particular method had one big drawback: “It hurt like hell!” The “Disturbia” singer has a number of other tats – including a cluster of stars on her neck. (Boyfriend Chris Brown has a matching set.)
Yes, boyfriend Chris Brown does have a matching set of star tattoos … and now ChRihanna also have matching tribal tattoos as well. Some people just give each other promise rings, these two seem happy to make their commitment to one another more permanent. I really hope these two do stay together forever cuz getting matching tattoos seems a pretty big step. How long ’til they tattoo their names on one another?

I don’t think it’s a good idea to EVER get a tattoo out of love, I bet they’ll regret it years later. Call me cynical but I just don’t think it’s a good idea at all.

Not a good idea - - but with all the money these two have they can easily have them removed (or modified) in the future when the technology for removal is even better than it is now.

Oh please, tattoos are not permanent anymore. They can be covered up and removed. Times are changing! lol

I like the idea…even though this could turn out bad. Which I really hope it doesn’t

these 2 are dumb to go get matching tattoos…there too young for that (matching tattoos are bad for anyone any age) , things can change in months. it probably wont be long till they get convered or removed.

i think it’s so disrespectful when people who aren’t Maori get ta moko… it’s like stealing their identity and their past.

Just a note to the person who said it was disrepectful for people to Maori Tamoko’s when they arent Maori i couldnt disagree with you more…. It shows a respect for the art and culture and i cant imagine to many Maori’s (myself included) would be the slightest bit offended at this…. i dont anyone else has really complained at any other celebrities get their ink down under???

While I think it’s very sweet and intimate that they decide to show their feelings for each other with tattoos I have to make one comment about the name thing… most people know that rule #1 is never get someone’s name except for a relative tattooed on you… signing someone else’s name on your body is like asking for your relationship to end… ask Angelina and Billy Bob…
