Rihanna Gets New Tattoo 'Designed' By Her Three Children
The 38-year-old "Umbrella" singer, who shares sons RZA, 3, Riot, 2, and daughter Rocki, 7 months, with A$AP Rocky, recently debuted a new tattoo on the back of her leg inspired by her children's artwork.
The Fenty founder's tattoo is essentially a massive scribble done by celebrity tattoo artist Bang Bang, real name Keith McCurdy. He revealed in an Instagram video that he posted on May 8th that the tattoo was "designed by her babies."

Per the Instagram post, the original drawing was created using colorful markers and decorated with Paw Patrol stickers, although Rihanna opted to recreate it in a simple all-black color scheme.
She joked in the video: "The torture I've endured in this shop." Perhaps she should stay away from social media comments if she doesn't want to be tortured any more, as the public reaction was quite brutal…
Internet Reactions
"No matter how much I love my children, I'd NEVER do this," wrote one Instagram user. "You can put their art on the fridge and still love your kids, you know," joked a second, as a third echoed: "Put the picture on the fridge and call it a day."
"All we wanted was another album," quipped a fourth, as a fifth advised: "Wait till they can draw something other than scribbles." "I would have given it at least another year of coloring practice," concurred a sixth.
"Love RiRi… but it's giving varicose veins," observed a seventh. "Such a cute thought but it's BAD," declared an eighth, while a ninth called it "ridiculous" and a tenth branded it "awful."
"This is horrendous," criticized an eleventh, as a twelfth suggested: "Def silently regretting it the second she looked in the mirror."
