OlderChris Brown’s Tattoos Explained
Chris Brown explains his many tattoos to Giant Magazine:
“I got most of these tattoos early. On my 13th birthday I was like, ‘Mom, I want a tattoo.’ She’s like, (high pitched voice) ‘You ain’t gettin’ no tattoo!’ So I went against her will and got one but I told her it was positive so then she liked it. That first one is basically Jesus with the music notes signifying he gave me the gift to sing. Then I got this one when I was 14, I drew this C (looks like a graffiti tag) and added a hand image. The hand means me holding my own name, my own destiny. This one, 2 ups 2 downs, is for Virginia, I had to do one for Virginia, when I was 16, in Miami. I designed that. Then it’s a spray can because I used to do graffiti and the B for Brown. I recently got this one (on his hand, it’s a skull with a halo over it). I got it the day after my 18th birthday and it signifies when you die, when you’re buried, your flesh deteriorates and all that’s left is your bones and the memory of you, it’s your bones, but you an angel. I wanted to do something that’s not demonic, so I put a halo over it to make something positive. And then this one, these is ninjas but Darkness to Light was about my life, me being a kid but being bad, being with the wrong crowd, doing the wrong things, but following my own path. This is the demon that I used to fight when I was younger, this is the angel, they just battled.”

I love when the same person leaves 3 posts in a row trying to act like different people. You aren’t that smart, get a life.
What an idiot…….yeah boy, you´re tattoos are sooo cool……….
What an idiot.
How do you get tatoos if you’re under 18? It’s illegal here. Do that have places that don’t care - I guess.
hes 18 already, leave the handsome young talented guy alone, all you racist this site is about chris brown not famous fug damn. just keep your white girls at home.

JERK OFF!!!!
****** Cracker!
like i give a hoot on this bad influence nigz
good dont give a hoot keep with your no talented ass honkeys like that ignorant stupid ugly bighead britney and that worthless paris. its enough blacks to like chris brown, just make sure you keep your white woman with you and away from the black men cause those whores have done went buckwild over black men, what the ef happen to all that racism , i guess it goes out the window when you sleep with them.
SOMEONE AKS WHY IS EVERYTHING ABOUT SKIN COLOR. ANSWER IS BECAUSE WHITE PEOPLE ARE JEALOUS OF BLACKS THATS WHY THEY TRY TO KEEP BLACKS DOWN. ANY BODY THAT HATES ON A PERSON THAT MUCH OR SPENDS THAT MUCH TIME FILLED WITH HATE IS NOTHING BUT JEALOUS.
its not illegal to get tattoos when you are younger than 18 but you do need parental consent…which makes me think that whoever gave the tattoo to him was a complete idiot b/c he could have just forged the signature himself…lol
stop hatin ppl the boy can ACTUALLY sing and dance…he’s not just one of those singers out there w/ a pretty face. I give him mad props!
So because Famous is black, that gives him the right to use that word? I dont think so . . . Thats basically saying, since I’m black I have the right to downgrade my race but other people cant. Ignorant
I love Chris Brown! he is so sexy =] I can’t believe he gotta tatoo at 13.. i wish my mom and dad would let me get one lol

All yall racist hoes is so ignorant, arrogant and bold. DUMB ass stupid ppl got too much time on yall hands re-up and get a ******* LIFE, do something productive like for example pick up a ******* book. We in war and ppl like yall sit here and choose the topic of a BLACK person as a everyday topic to conversate about. It’s to much **** goin on in the world and all one can think about is HOW THE BLACK COMMUNITY IS THIS WAY OR THAT WAY. PLEASE REMEMBER we ain’t in that time no more if anything we got control over yall. DRESSING LIKE US, WALKING LIKE US AND TALKING LIKE US obviously yall wanna be like us. Just because we may do things a certain way don’t mean we ain’t human like the rest of u stupid dumb ass ppl, we takin in the same air just like everybody else is so why yall trippin us? there ain’t no such thing as color, ppl is just a flaunt to society. if u gone talk make **** clear, have a reason why u dislike us and don’t judge just by physical impressions on what u see in our community or in the movies. elevate ya position.
i love u chris brown alot i think that he is a talented person i think we are jus a like cause he sings and i sing he dances and i dance to and my dream is to dance with chris brown and met him and i would do anyhing to met chris brown cause i love him to death and there is noting that will come between that and and i jus pray to god that my dream will come true………..love you chris and fill already that i know you but one day i wil get to now you …….i love you
Well I loved every bit of what he said. I respect that he even had good reasons to get all the tattoos that he did seeing as some people just get any old tattoo just to say they have one. I love his tattoos, I love his music, I love his voice, and he’s just frkkn downright sexy. He is amazing and I cant wait for the day I get to see him in person.

Fyi: I’m a tattoo artist, and to answer all the questions of how someone under 18 can get a tattoo, the answer is that in most states, anyone under the age of 18 who has parental consent (not in written form, but with the parent actually with them) may get a tattoo. Even though this should be fail safe, it’s not, because some tattoo shops are grimey and will tattoo anyone.. but those are the shops who want money, and are not worried about their customers or their art.
In response to the negative comments made about white people, and the racism topic…. Why even go there? This site is about an artist, are you really that unintelligent and unintellectual that you must spend time bashing another race. We’re not jealous of black people, and our objective is not to steal your men. You can’t help who you love, and if you’re so concerned with the education of white people on what is “correct” in “your world”.. why don’t you spend a little more time educating yourselves. (this is mainly directed towards the person who attacked white people for “stealing their men” and couldn’t even spell the word ask right… yes dear, it’s ask… not AKS?)
Other than that…. i give props to chris for taking on the premise of personal expression.. the more power to him!
YOU PEOPLE ARE STUPID HES SEXY ASS HELL HE IS A GOOD DANCER HE CAN SING BETTER THAN ANYONE I LOVE HIS TATTOS AND IM HAPPY HE EXPLAIND THEM I WISH IT WAS LONGER SO THERE.
ok, so im most deff not racist and i think chris brown is hot. and i deff dont have a problem with black people. most of my friends are black and i love them to death. so racist people are really lame.

also on another website, some chick tried to say he had the name “Joyce” tattooed on his wrist but i think that is only for the video “With you”, but im not sure.

Tattos are hot.
and when there on a gorgeous man
then their def. hot.
I love how his tattoos have a meaning
to them instead of people getting something
like a dolphin just cause.
me and my 3 sisters are planning
on getting 3 stars on either our
back or our side which is the meaning of
us 3 sisters will always have eachothers back
or we’ll always be by eachothers side!

Chris Brown has a good idea
for his tattoos he has a story to back
them up. Not like some people that get
something like a dolphin
because they like the animal, his atleast
have meaning.
My sisters and I are planning on getting
3 stars to signifiy for each of us. We want them
to either be on our back or our side. If we got them
on our back it would mean we will always have
eachothers back and if we got it on our side
it we mean were always goona be by eachothers
side.
wow. just goes and writes the same thing

famous meant oh here we go another black dude gonna get hated on like he has on this page n famous probz is black
but i’m black n i think its disgraceful when people think the best way at talkin to certain racist white people is to diss the whole white race just caus one black guy robs a store dnt mean all black people are like that and just because one white guy thinks its smart to write nigga on youtube n various web pages dnt mean its right to call every white person crackers n honkeys dnt poke the fire my fellow brothers n sisters they’ll die sad lonely people
peace out
each tattoo is very meaningful, and its good that they all are positive and actually have some meaning to it, LOVE CHRIS BROWN!!!!!!!
I GOT THA SAME TATTOO ON MY ARM BUT IT’S WAY DIFFERENT I GOTTA SKULL HEAD AND A HALO ON THA SIDE OF THA HEAD AND UNDER IT IS SAYS DEAHT B4 DISHONOR WHICH MEANS I WOULD RATER DIE DEN BE A DISHONEST PERSON AND LIVE A LIE.
well, all i can say is that keep up what you’re doing its best and don’t let the fear get to you…and try to work on the attitude part…do it right…don’t let it get to you…peace out
chris is a really sexy person. I like his tattoos so yall need to stop hateing
