It comes just days after Rih and Rocky appeared at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/rihanna-asap-rocky-2026-met-gala-red-carpet\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"text link\">Met Gala<\/a>, where Rihanna opted for a whorling Margiela couture gown and \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.co.uk\/article\/rihanna-living-sculpture-hair-2026-met-gala\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"text link\">living sculpture<\/a>\u201d hair. Art in all its forms, then, must have been on Rih\u2019s mind.<\/p>\n<p>The body art is a purple, red, yellow, green, and blue scribble\u2014quite abstract expressionist. In one video shared on Bang Bang\u2019s Instagram, you can see the artist working from the original artwork\u2014a paper covered in Paw Patrol stickers, which Rihanna obviously decided against featuring on her body, keeping it simple. Rih had the ink done on the back of her left upper leg.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe torture I\u2019ve endured in this shop,\u201d she says in one clip.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMake sure my ass looks good in the main shots,\u201d she says in another, with large wraparound sunglasses and a hoodie obscuring her face.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not the first time Rih has looked to Bang Bang for his needle work. He\u2019s responsible for at least nine, including the shark on her ankle from 2016 (which she\u2019s since had covered up for a crown) and \u201crebelle fleur\u201d on her neck. Her most visible and well-known is the tatt of cascading stars down her neck and back, also by Bang Bang.<\/p>\n<p>The pop star and beauty mogul has around 25 known tattoos all over her body, some with intimate personal meanings, in tribute to others, and with a bit of good fun and homor. They range from small designs like a music note and pistol to the wingspan of Egyptian Goddess Isis across her chest, a memorial to her grandmother Dolly. Others have faded over time, like\u201cthug life\u201d spelled out across her knuckles and the \u201cshhh\u201d on her finger.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"AssetEmbedWrapper-iJvQnD cOWUYC asset-embed\">\n<div class=\"AssetEmbedAssetContainer-fnduJP iaVSwI asset-embed__asset-container\"><span class=\"SpanWrapper-kFnjvc eKnjjD responsive-asset AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-gaAbQ hXaxHA asset-embed__responsive-asset\"><picture class=\"ResponsiveImagePicture-jKunQM gjCCFj AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-gaAbQ hXaxHA asset-embed__responsive-asset responsive-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Rihanna tattoo\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"ResponsiveImageContainer-dkeESL cQPiWi responsive-image__image\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets.vogue.com\/photos\/6a00d93a6e0ed777cab5e3a9\/master\/w_120,c_limit\/Rihanna%20tattoo.jpeg 120w, https:\/\/assets.vogue.com\/photos\/6a00d93a6e0ed777cab5e3a9\/master\/w_240,c_limit\/Rihanna%20tattoo.jpeg 240w, https:\/\/assets.vogue.com\/photos\/6a00d93a6e0ed777cab5e3a9\/master\/w_320,c_limit\/Rihanna%20tattoo.jpeg 320w, https:\/\/assets.vogue.com\/photos\/6a00d93a6e0ed777cab5e3a9\/master\/w_640,c_limit\/Rihanna%20tattoo.jpeg 640w, https:\/\/assets.vogue.com\/photos\/6a00d93a6e0ed777cab5e3a9\/master\/w_960,c_limit\/Rihanna%20tattoo.jpeg 960w, https:\/\/assets.vogue.com\/photos\/6a00d93a6e0ed777cab5e3a9\/master\/w_1280,c_limit\/Rihanna%20tattoo.jpeg 1280w, https:\/\/assets.vogue.com\/photos\/6a00d93a6e0ed777cab5e3a9\/master\/w_1600,c_limit\/Rihanna%20tattoo.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"100vw\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.vogue.com\/photos\/6a00d93a6e0ed777cab5e3a9\/master\/w_1600%2Cc_limit\/Rihanna%2520tattoo.jpeg\"\/><\/picture><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"BaseText-fEwdHD CaptionCredit-cUgOGk eHhdnE hRFzlA caption__credit\">Photo: Instagram (@bangbangnyc)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async defer src=\"https:\/\/platform.instagram.com\/en_US\/embeds.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/article\/rihanna-tattoo-designed-by-children\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What may the offspring of Rihanna and A$AP Rocky be when they grow up?
