Welcome to the Gun Show, Rihanna…

File under: mildly ironic bodyart, things I learned from twitter, things that you’ll regret later
According to BonnieFuller, this pic shows Rihanna’s latest gun tats. Obviously in the general context/timing of things, Rihanna’s new tattoos are a bit um….odd. But maybe they’re empowering to her. Also…if she wasn’t a popstar with a recent controversial domestic violence incident with her pop star boyfriend…then this tattoo would be pun-tastically hilarious. Like something Steve-O would do. (but he’d probably get them much bigger, and with something raunchy coming out as bullets).
RiRi has a knack for getting sexy tough-but-cute tattoos. But I wonder if they look bad when she puts her arms down…..

UPDATE: well, thank you to sharp-eyed readers like Nightfall, Reeg and more who pointed out that these were just stencils and that Rihanna ended up getting the real tat on her ribs under her arms…(like a realllly reeeally tiny shoulder holster?)….you can read about that on Smoking Section. Looks less cute/ironic/humorous there…more random.

those aren’t the tatts. if you look close or have ever gotten a tatt yourself, those are the ink pressings for the example. TSS has a pic of where it was actually tatted. those aren’t dark enough.
good look though miss info. get at your boy reeg. checktheblog.net

and if she wasn’t a popstar no one would give two shits about her “domestic incident”. She actually got the tatts on her rib cage.

By this time next year or before, those will probably no longer be guns.
Maybe they’ll be dolphins. That’s the only thing that comes to mind right now. I’m sure you can come up with other cover-up tattoos.
Life lesson learned from Game – if you’re getting a questionable tatoo, plan an back-up, cover-up tattoo that leaves little to no remnant of the first. Or just get them removed if you can afford it.

The guns in that pictures are outlines the tattoo artist sketched. The real tatoo is is on her ribs.

I like girls with tats but I dunno about this one. She could still get it though. Since Info wants nothing to do with me.

Im not sure I like em. Women’s tattoes are usually sexy, but IDK. To each their own. Its hilarious though in context to what’s gone on.

I agree with “things that you’ll regret later” cause she’s young and thinks it’s clever. Good for a few concealed weapon jokes but looking at the real tat – it’s just not that cool. In 10 years time it’ll be a fuzzy blob.
Oh well – Live your life

Sometimes I believe that we get an image of celebrities in our minds sooo fixed on what they appear to be on a mag. cover, or in a paparazzi snap shot out on the town, that we forget…… they’re just human.
YOU CANT TELL ME RHI-RHI DOESNT LOOK JUST LIKE SOME OL’ FLY CHICK AT THE MALL IN THIS PICTURE. Just a cutie from around the way!!

Its so sad how this little girl sold her soul for fame and riches. She allow herself to become a sex slave to nasty world of the Illuminati. I know ya’ll saying this guy is crazy posting this kind of comment but beleive when i say its not crazy. Think about it, why is Jay-Z always close to her, who do you think made her sold her soul. She will forever be a slave to them. How do you think Beyonce became so famous. Do you think she really loves him? please!! i think not. For the price of fame and riches she sold her soul. That crap about sasha fierce is a demon. Think about it again janet jackson and Jermaine duri. I advice you when the next time you through up that roc sign to know what you are throwing up. Do your research people that roc sign is the one eye pyramid on the one dollar bill, its an Illuminati symbol. And if you know about the Illuminati you will know that they worship the devil. Don’t you know that Jay Z sold his soul long ago, how do you think he became som rich. Do your math people rocawear and selling rocafella records didn’t amount to all that money.
If you all don’t believe me just research the Boule.

Instead of wasting money on those stupid gun tattoos, she should have bought two real guns instead. Had she bought some guns, she wouldn’t have had her ass kicked by Shit Brown.
