Now, we all know about 'hot-babe' Angelina Jolie and her obsessions with tattoos, but the latest celebrities to be pricked by the tattoo trend are Rihanna and Chris Brown.

The duo got their tattoo backstage during their sold-out shows at Auckland's Vector Arena. Rihanna confessed that the traditional tattoos inspired by traditional Maori designs, 'hurt like hell'.

"It's tribal. It represents strength and love," the NZPA quoted her, as saying. "It''s their traditional way of tattooing. I always wanted (one) ... (But) it hurt like hell," she added.

The couple did not stop at that, the 20-year old Rihanna and Chris Brown 19, also sport a matching star designs tattoo on their backs.

This is a lot better than exchanging blood vials like Jolie and ex-husband Billy Bob Thornton.
