Rihanna has always revved up her style with funky hairstyles and clothes—and now the singer has a permanent new accessory.
Wednesday night, the “Disturbia” singer showed off a new tattoo on her right wrist.
“It’s tribal,” she explained to reporters at a UNICEF event. “It represents strength and love.”
The Barbados native was inked on a recent tour stop in New Zealand.
“It’s their traditional way of tattooing,” she said of the Maori-inspired design.
One drawback of the new ink?
“It hurt like hell!”
The geometric design is the latest in Rihanna’s repertoire, which already includes a cluster of stars on her neck that matches boyfriend Chris Brown’s tat.

I am maori and I love this tatt. I never would have thought of putting a maori tat on the wrist but this is awesome and a very beautiful one at that and as for you stupid ass maori’s who keep saying that celebs or other people shouldn’t wear our tattooing I mean come on you idiots it is no big deal and it is not tapu (sacred) for someone to have a maori tat apart from a Moko so get over it!
