Turns out Rihanna’s hip tattoo by artist BangBang (above) is not an accurate writing of Hindu Sanskrit, according to The Sun:
An Aussie expert on an education website says the first part means “forgiveness, honesty, suppression and control” and is from Gita, a holy Hindu Sanskrit scripture, but says it is “incorrectly written”.
Wait. You mean this BangBang fellow isn’t thoroughly versed in ancient texts? Get the fuck out. Now who’s going to help me find the holy grail?

She should show more than her hip.
amanda | April 14, 2009 at 10:16 pm
half the crap people get tattooed on them dosnt mean what they think it means. if you cant read it dont get it on your body – what makes your tattoo guy an expert, he looked it up on google?
do your own research, bring your own characters, if its wrong its your own damn fault!
Que | April 14, 2009 at 10:16 pm

Jordana | April 14, 2009 at 10:48 pm
I always wanted to get “fuck off” or something similar tattooed on my in Japanese, when ppl asked I could just say…FUCK OFF
But then I remembered I don’t want tattoos :)
Dennis | April 14, 2009 at 10:50 pm
Sanskrit is an older language to Hindi which is now mostly not spoken in India. A bit like the relationship between Latin and English….
Andy | April 14, 2009 at 10:55 pm
it says “my name is david beckham” and its not a transfer
Ginseng | April 14, 2009 at 10:58 pm
She’s gonna look like a friggen retard to every Australian expert on education who ever see’s her hip. What a fool.
Andy | April 14, 2009 at 10:58 pm
she knows all about suppression and control thanks to chris brown
Lincoln | April 14, 2009 at 11:15 pm
Because of the mistakes, it reads as “forty acres and a mule.”
arroyo | April 14, 2009 at 11:42 pm
Misspelled in Sanskrit?
Who cares, her name “Rihanna” isn’t even spelled correctly.
Ein | April 14, 2009 at 11:46 pm
I’ll remember that when Chris Brown bits some meat off her.
ChEF | April 14, 2009 at 11:53 pm
She could literally have anything written on those fucking legs and ass for all i care. i’d still be all over it.
Venom | April 15, 2009 at 1:41 am
She needs some serious mental help.
Letting this greasy fat fuck named Bang Bang touch her and deface her beautiful body with those shitty tattoos.
desi | April 15, 2009 at 1:55 am
pretty sure “spelt” is not a word..
unless it’s a bad joke referring to the tatoo situation..? i can never tell with fish.
desi | April 15, 2009 at 1:56 am
actually, i take it back. spelt is used in context with grains and flour..
Narcissist | April 15, 2009 at 2:17 am
Looks like Chris Brown skankified her. More damage than we guessed.
It says: “Impulsiveness, Shortsightedness, Ignorance and Poor Judgment”.
bald outing | April 15, 2009 at 2:31 am
she looks happy – but a tattoo isn’t going to make chris brown go away.
Star Wars Nerd | April 15, 2009 at 2:42 am
You know, I felt sorry for this bitch for a while, but I just can’t stand tattoos on any woman–as far as I’m concerned, she deserved her ass beating for being a trashy whore.
Autumn | April 15, 2009 at 2:55 am
my friend had a tattoo done in “arab” above her ass crack to have it say ‘slave” but after wards we found out it said “nigger’ in arab..be careful what you wish for
Grimmer | April 15, 2009 at 3:14 am
Tattoos are tiny flesh billboards advertising what an idiot you are.
mihir | April 15, 2009 at 4:07 am
Yeah, that reads completely nothing. Some of the print doesn’t even look like any real sort of a Sanskrit character. This all just keeps getting better and better; or worse and worse, depending on how you look at it.
Steph | April 15, 2009 at 4:43 am
Suppression and control..hmmmm….who was abusing whom i wonder. Aquarius = usually full of crap
Kimberly | April 15, 2009 at 5:13 am
What a stupid bitch! Haha! That’s what she gets for trying to look cool and interesting!
ToeJam | April 15, 2009 at 5:24 am
Only thing dumber than a nigger is a wigger.
Mike Walker | April 15, 2009 at 5:50 am
I see D-O-U-C-H-E-B-A-G written all over that guy’s face.
Zanna | April 15, 2009 at 6:51 am
Shouldn’t it be “spelled wrong”? I thought “spelt” was a type of wheat.
mikeock | April 15, 2009 at 7:29 am
I often wonder how many of those oh-so-hip Asian character tattoos actually say something like, “I LOVE TO SUCK COCK”
If U seek Amy | April 15, 2009 at 7:59 am
True Story right here folks. I had a friend who had the Chinese characters for “Hope and Faith” tattooed on her neck. 3 years later she actually had it translated by a Chinese man…. and it said FRUIT AND VEGETABLES.
lol.
bambi | April 15, 2009 at 8:00 am
Um, you she got this tattoo 2 YEARS ago right? This was when “Umbrella” came out. Note the hair.
So ummmm. yeah.
Jeezy | April 15, 2009 at 8:00 am
Cryptic tattoos that nobody knows the meaning of are stupid.
Come-Honor-Face | April 15, 2009 at 8:13 am
If anyone is thinking about getting a tatoo, get one on your arm that says, “I’m Stupid”, that way 20yrs down the road, when you ask yourself…”god, why did I get a tatoo”, just look at your arm…….
What? | April 15, 2009 at 8:18 am
I thought it was Chinese for ” kick and shoot load here”.
Stupid me….
simplicity | April 15, 2009 at 8:24 am
Don’t knock all tattoos..
Some people get them because they mean something to them…
religiously, emotionally
Some people get them because they’re idiots

Yeah she is a talentless whore for one and has a giant nose like a gorilla for another. I hope Brown bashes her brains in next time.

You anti-tat people are a bunch of fucking pussies. I hope that you’re proud to be a collective old man. Now go get those kids off your lawn and tell some hippies to get hair cuts.
lol | April 15, 2009 at 12:47 pm
#37: “Some” people get tattoos because they’re idiots? No, I would say it’s more like the majority. Like 95% majority. Tattoos only work when they’re personally significant, making all those dragons, skulls and pinup girls utterly pointless.

Cryptic tattoos that nobody knows the meaning of are stupid.”
You’ve missed the point of tattoos entirely, cryptic ones are the perfect tat.
The reason people get tattoos is to show them off to other people, whom they believe will think they are cool for having it. The problem is that that “hey, check out my tat” effect only works for about 5 minutes, then people lose interest. Eventually the douchebag has to get ANOTHER tattoo to recapture that brief moment of notoriety.
The cryptic tattoos are even better, because it makes other people ASK you what it means…then you get to pontificate about some bullshit about blah, blah blah…and they think it makes them look even cooler.
Basically, tattoos are emotional cries for attention in personified douchebag form.
