Rihanna Loves Tattoos
Rihanna is an Atlanta Peach in the magazine’s fall fashion issue (on the cover showing off her Sanskirt prayer tattoo going down her hip). Isoul Harris got the dirt on the Barbados babe and her obsession with tattoos:
On where you’ll find her in New York: “I like hanging out in tattoo shops. When I am in New York, after all the photo shoots and performances, when I should be resting, sometimes I get dressed and go to the tattoo parlors in SoHo and hang out. I am so intrigued by tattoos. It’s an entire culture, and I study it. Sometimes I go with friends or just by myself. I get bum-rushed, but I don’t care. I don’t take security.”
On the crazy rumors about Jay-Z and Beyonce: “The week I was signed, in Barbados, they blew it up in the newspaper, and the catty people started saying that I had to have sex with Jay-Z in order to get my deal. I know Bajans, they always talk crap. They never like to see another Bajan succeed, no matter what. But [in America] it got out of hand when they started making a beef between me and Beyonce. Come on! Don’t you hear me speaking about how she is one of the people I look up to? In Europe, they asked, ‘Do you have his number in your phone?’ Of course, we work together! It’s crazy. I just have to let these rumors me.”
On wanting to move to Georgia: “I want to live in Atlanta, seriously. I love people from there [Atlan's C. Tricky Stewart produced "Umbrella"]. There is just something about their spirits. I can have fun with them. If I could move there next week, I would. L.A. is cool, but I think I made the wrong decision.”
On what kinda guys turn her on: “I like bad guys. [They have] the most personality and make you laugh. I love that. I need to have a good time. Happiness is when I get off the phone and I am glowing. I want that person to be my light.”
In a previous interview, Rihanna has described her tattooed body saying, “I have four tattoos. The one on my ankle is a music note. There’s a Pisces sign behind my right ear. There’s a star in my left ear, and a Sanskrit prayer going down my hip.”

Rihanna looks hot! Love the tat!
Her tattoo says, I love Shia. LOL
hahaha, i wouldn;t balme her!
Shia Labeouf is one lucky man!! WOWZA!!
holy shiiit this biish is sexy!!!
She wants a person to be her light?
What a bullshit expectation that is to put on someone else.
She should try to find the light inside herself first. Rather than looking for someone else to give it to her.
She sounds really screwed up from reading her comments in that interview. Whoever she is!!
Gawd what a retouch photoshopped fame horse..I mean ho.re.
I want that person to be my light.”
She should find her light from within rather than put that high expectation onto another.
Whoever she is, she sure doesn’t sound very bright.
I don’t like Shia with her, yuck, he can do much better.
Let’s see they have taken out her acne, scars, brown spots, she wears fake contacts, another new style wig, and she is selling her azz as usual.Just saw her on tmz and big gurl did’nt look like the fotos.
I believe she went down low with Bey’s man.,the sk.ank.
hey tiger, how about you type that a third time. lmfaoo maybe you’ll believe it then.
rotfl @ “Whoever she is”. you must not be very bright. hahaha
you rock rihanna
If you are the example of what bright is Famous, I would rather be in the dark than to stand anywhere near you.
It only took Rihanna 2 yrs, fame and money to start stripping herself.What happened to the innocent island girl talk,”evrything I do will automatically be Barbadian”? I’m sure her own people will be shock to see her butt naked on magazines, bcoz it is definitely not her culture.
Then she strated singing rock, which is definitely NOT BARBADIAN!
She’s become a puppet on a strings at DEF JAM, and in a afew yrs time she”ll be doing interviews to tell I did what THEY TOLD ME TO DO…
come on tiger, say it a third time. then ask who she is again, as if you don’t know.
OH PLEASE BB PERFUME GTFOH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!SO SHE’S BAJAN IS SHE LIMITED TO ONLY ONE TYPE OF MUSIC? AS IF AMERICANS SHOULD NOT LISTEN TO CARIBEAN MUSIC? SHUT THE HELL UP AND SHE IS AMAZINGLY HOT AND WHOEVER SHE IS, YOU MUST LOVE POSTING ABOUT HER
danm you shia. you’re one lucky man. danm you to heck
she should let me under my umbrella. i’d do her good. her lying down i’mma smack that ass and do the unmetionables to her. CHEA
i’m hard right now
this is coming from a girl..she is gorgeous i cant believe that she is only nineteen i’m just so jelous of her body, her eyes her face and that hot style she has. i’m also glad she’s not a young lindsay lohan or paris
rihanna ma let me be like milk i’ma do your body good so shut up and i’ll drive if you know what i mean you digg?
She sounds like a real dummy. The bish wished she look like this. We all know she has horible acne. And she is fat. Check her out on other sites with video, she aint even close to this. Oh and she looks 35. Goes to show anybody can be a celeb.
she’s fat? no wonder people are going anorex and she’s 35 please i think your ass is sore from pulling al those facts
poser if she’s fat then you must think the olsen twins are really fit right now.
lol @ people using ‘bish’ now. i gotta come up with some new ish now
Lmao @ people calling her fat….pathetic. She looks amazing. Btich has a booty I would kill for.
Once again, a celebrity gets in touch with their spiritual side by tattooing something in an ancient language ON THEIR ASS! What a F**KING ******!
Sanskrit is an ancient language, often associated with Hinduism. Hindus are deeply religious. For one, they enter their temples barefoot as a sign of respect to the gods, who they approach. And in another case of Western ignorance, a revered language has been defiled!
Idi-idi-idi-ot-ot!
You can tell she’s young. She’s gonna regret everything she said next year. I have seen too many women in domestic abuse cases because they had an affinity for “bad guys”. They have the most personality? Um ok. We all can see that she will end up with some lunatic escorting her wherever. Don’t you all just love how she paints all Bajan’s by saying they all talk crap? Where is she from that she gives an interview by using the word crap? Sorry but I put Rhianna in the same class as Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan and that Foxy Brown. These people were cute when they were teens but when they became women, they are utter disasters.
omg…she is such a hottie.
dont get me wrong, i love her music and everything but this new attitude thing isn’t really working for me. its too bad. she’s only 19 and she looks like a stripper in those photos!
“I want that person to be my light.”
For some reason this is funny LOL.
To me she tries a bit too hard to be sexy, and ends up being something else. Also, it seems everyone is obessed with tattoos nowadays. First megan fox, now her, whos next!?
I don´t like her, but, no matter what I said her career will continue to rise. Shia and her make cute couple, but, just.. don´t seem to be right with one another IMO. Anyways, shes into bad boys remember.. so all you bad boys, go and win her heart.. Her and shia are just ********, no worries girls hes a “good guy” I think lol. Eventually it will be over lol.
Dont let Shia fool you. He has his edgy streak and im 100% sure he’s making her laugh which is also what she emphasized. GO SHIANNA! Shia’s a hottie btw, and i love HIS tattoos!!
Don’t people have dignity anymore?
Love her hair but the tramp stamps what a fool
A lot of girls say they like bad guys until he treats them badly!

Famous is the only one posting and reposting positive things then answering himself. ITA that she is sooo over weight thighs head and all, they even gave her a almost normal NOSE, instaed of the extra WIDE NOSE she really has.
PHOTOSHOPPED TO THE MAX with her STU.ID @ss.
a ‘tramp stamps’ a lower back tattoo. lol not hip, fool. lol
What a dum hoe~ *Her wigs will hide the other tats. Run Shia Run not herrrr,nooooo!!
the second photo has been so much airbrushed it doesnt even look like her, anymore. isnt airbrushing supposed to enhance your beauty? why do they change their facial features? we cant recognize them anymore.. its crazy.

Why do people have so much hate towards her? She’s 19 years old and in a tough business where she lives under the microscope. And I think it’s great that her new record has some rock undertones to it. It means she’s versatile and anyways an artist needs to bring something new to every record they make because who would want to hear the same thing over and over again?
Stunnorgeous!!!! Stunning + Gorgeous
I think she is absolutey beautiful. Love her music.
Just because you’re from the Caribbean doesn’t mean you don’t appreciate different music. Stay at somebodys’ house in the Caribbean and you’ll hear the different types of music flowing from the houses. We love music, and all kinds. Since I was a child I was listening to American, Spanish, Chinese and Indian music in the Caribbean.
Rihanna wouldn’t be with Def Jam if she wanted to sing purely Caribbean music. She may sing another Caribbean flavored song or maybe she won’t. The choice is hers if she wants to.
The only negative thing I will say about her is her choice of tattooing. Tattooing is against the word of God. The Bible clearly states that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit and tattoos, piercings and cutting of the skin(? plastic surgery) defile Gods’ temple. God gave us these bodies to house our spirits while we live on this earth. We are expected to take care of our bodies and not use it contrary to Gods’ word.
39 ITA. ITA that she looks like Dionne Warwick.
I don’t get why you guys are hating on her. She’s just saying that she wants someone that will make her happy, you know keep her glowing geezz. She’s young anyway. Let her say these things about bad boys now. She’ll learn. And her tatto is nice not disrespectful. She can write whatever she wants on her body in any language she wants. Those are not contacts (old issue) That hair is hers. When it’s longer its not. Remember the chick is not African American. She’s bajan so she has a mixture in her. She does have a large forehead but that makes her diff and diff is good in a static society like america. So one-dimensional. Anyway, lol, you rock on rihanna and i think her and shia are good friends although they would make an amazing couple if they are dating, but i doubt it. Shia is funny though. Hmmmmm….idk
Well they’re hatin because they’re ignorant, pathetic and wish they had a thimble full of what she has. And come on, you know the poster callin him/herself poser who says Rhianna’s fat is like 400lbs. LOL!
what is with girls loving bad guys i have to give her a break b/c she is only 19 but man once u get a bad guy who is usually more insecure than GOD knows what the relationshop becomes a drag. its sad but u def. have to be careful what u wish for.hopefully someone can help her see the light. i like rhianna no nipple slippage or crotch shots so i like her.
Rihanna’s a beautiful girl, I guess she’s always going to have haters, that’s part of the game. And her tat looks cool, I just hope she doesn’t go and get too many like Britney. And to the poster who sad Rihanna is fat, are you kidding me? If she’s fat then Britney must be considered obese then, because Rihanna is way smaller than Britney, and I guess you would have to say Jessica simpson is fat too then.
oops i meant “said”
Bottom line she is fake and she is trying to sell the flop of a CD.
She is a cute little girl with no talent, now they are selling her to make back the money they have waisted.
NO TALENT……………………………….
where does it say i luv shia?
Tattoo parlors in Soho? that’s funny!
ive seen her around nyc. shes super nice and cute.
im a 16 year old bajan girl and id just like to day that im a bit offended that rihanna says us bajans are unsupportive of her when she first made it all you heard was praise n happiness that one of our own made it big in the music industry i dont care about ther personal life..that is her buisness but i would like her to stop tearing down the people who showed her love first because these small minded coments are losing her fans back here in bim…
love you rihanna but stop dissin bajans….you never know what may happen to you in the future
She was one of the normal Bajan girls
She dissed rock music, like everyone in the island. And now she wants to become it. Making everyone in the island who put rock music and alternative looking, with all of our tattoos and piercing, down for years, all of a sudden want to become like rihanna saying we are fake.
She caused everyone to pose the “rock star” look, and they dont even like rock, or listen to it. they think rihanna sings rock.
I want her to go back to R&B and all of that stuff.
Then they “fake rock” craze will die down.
She is just another damn poser
and ive seen people dressing like rihanna
does rihanna have a tattoo behind her neck with stars?
i didn’t know she was dating Shia?
awwhhh some people get soo jelous she beautiful she tattoo is slammin and she has great body and music god dont hate her cuz she is successful…now shut up and drive …she young and shes doin what all us young girls would do if we had half the chance your more than likly never gonna meet her soo she is nothing to get wound up about so much bitchyness in the world these days goshhhh
She looks a lot like Fefe Dobson
love her ankle tattoo, this gurl is totaly working it
Let me start off by saying Rihanna is the ish!!!!! To all y’all haters…keep your tired azz opinions 2 urself. To the biggest hater of all… lawanda page…I am originally from Barbados and I went to school with Robyn and one thing I’m sure of is she doesn’t wear contacts… obviously you haven’t seen her in person cause some of your comments are pure bull! Tell me who in hollywood doesn’t get their photos retouched? who doesn’t wear a wig or some form of weave or extensions?? To the rest saying she’s fat..yea PHAT!!!! You haters just want what she got… go on admit it 2 urselves…
it’s bajan, not barbadian.
leave the girl alone, she’s only human like the rest of us. :)
rihanna is the best…shut up stupid boys and girls..rihanna

What does her tattoo mean ?
which language is this tattoo? :0)
and what does it mean?
haha it is funny reading everyones comments who dissed Rihanna, it is her life and she can do whatever the hell she wants that doesnt make her dumb or “old” looking. In my personal opinion she kicks ass! I love her
Her accent gets in the way of her grammer. That’s why it seems so bad when it’s all written down.
Aww.
She sucks. Go back to r&b!
We dont need no rock posers!!!
Go Closet Rockers of Barbados!
Shut the **** up all you bajans.
she sucks and besides her music song umbrella is demonic backwards.
you call people who like rock evil? half of the rappers u listen 2 are demonic.
every bajan is a rihanna wannabe, the star tattoos, make fake rihanna hi5 profiles, COPYING HER HAIR!
bajans are so unorginal, and didnt you read, she said bajans talk crap. she means all. including the ones who support her.
so stfu and hope she doesnt stay pretending to like rock.
shut up and DIE!

WOW!!!!!!!!!!! SHE IS ****** SEXY HOW DO U GET LET SEXY GOD DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOW!!!!!!!!!!
what is writing hip? i want it same
which language and mean and how i can find it big write
really weird she says she falls for the “bad boy’-type, seen the fact she was abused by her BF Chris Brown…
:S
You people are so silly. Why does music and art always equate out to satan to religious fanatics? So, so sad. I pity you on so many levels. Your lives must be so devoid of happiness. I see nothing here that is demonic. I even played it over and listened closely. It’s about being ‘there’ for someone she loves. Learn to take something for face value and quit looking for evil under every rock and plaguing everyone else with your conspiracy theories and fear mongering. Let the girl life her life as she sees fit.
love Rihanna!..so beautiful..getting a tattoo down my hip like her. not a sanskirt prayer, but it will be in arabic
