Chris Brown turns tattooist
Friday, 31 July 2009
Chris Brown has copied Rihanna and become a tattoo artist.
The 'Run It' singer has decided to mimic his ex-girlfriend - who he pleaded guilty to assaulting earlier this year - by inking a design on celebrity tattoo artist Bang Bang.
'Umbrella' hitmaker Rihanna recently left a lasting impression on the artist - real name Keith McCurdy - by drawing an umbrella with an 'R' underneath it on his leg.
However, Chris, 20, has outdone his former girlfriend by creating his own design - a cartoon face with the word 'Bang' above it.
Bang Bang revealed: "He drew it. It's pretty funny. I told him, 'Do whatever you want', and he drew something and I liked it.
"He did a great job too. He's a natural, which is funny because I said the same thing about Rihanna. She was really good the first time, but he was better.
"He wasn't nervous at all. I asked him if he was, and he said, 'Nope - not at all.' "
Keith is thought to be the only person in the world who has been tattooed by different celebrities.
He now plans to continue the challenge and ask each of famous clients to return the favour.
He explained: "I'm so lucky. They're all really cool and I've got a couple of other famous people who are going to tattoo me soon. I'd like to have all the celebrities I tattoo do a small tattoo on me. I think that would be really cool."
