Overview
- Bang Bang Tattoo’s Instagram post on Friday showed Rihanna getting a new piece behind her knee that the studio said was designed by her three children.
- The tattoo copies a paper covered in multicolored marker lines and Paw Patrol stickers, yet the final artwork on her leg is rendered in black ink.
- Video from the session captured Rihanna joking about the process as she lay on the table, saying, “The torture I’ve endured in this shop.”
- Reaction online was split, with many praising the sentimental tribute and others questioning the look or suggesting she wait for older drawings.
- The piece extends her two-decade collaboration with artist Keith “Bang Bang” McCurdy and follows a week of family-forward attention after her Met Gala appearance.
