I can think of many things Rihanna fans—not me, you understand, but other really devout admirers of the singer—would like for her to do to them, some of them involving a sharp needle and even, ok, a jar of ink. Carving a tattoo into their flesh, where it will remain until, and even after they die, never seemed like it might have been one of them. Shows how much I know. According to the dazzling world of the internet, Rihanna (who has several tattoos, one might mention), and the tattoo shop that let her ink up three of its patrons, might be getting in trouble (though not serious trouble—hey, kind of like Chris Brown!) for her artistry. Rihanna could be headed to a Manhattan courtroom over allegations that she tattooed three patrons without a license in New York.
The “Umbrella” singer, working on the follow up to 2007s “Good Girl Gone Bad,” allegedly tattooed three willing fans with umbrellas and the letter R at East Side Ink in New York.
According to New York based authorities the action, while innocent to the fans who received the tattoos, is illegal.
“Only licensed tattoo artists can administer tattoos in the city according to the city’s health code. We are sending someone down to follow up on this”.
If convicted, Rihanna could be slapped with misdemeanor charges and up to $1,000 in penalty fees.
The tattoo shop, East Side Ink, could also face charges and considerable fines.
