My favorite celebrity tattoo is Amber Rose's upper bicep tattoo. It's creative and symbolizes her public persona. While some may look at it as cheesy, or typical because it's roses, I find it quite unique. The colors and design are something to be marveled... My favorite tattoo trend is words tatted on the upper back. What better way to make a statement, or draw attention to something, than by tatting it on the top of your back? Alot of celebrities have tattoos like this, but my favorite upper back tattoo is 50 Cent's "South Side" one. It's original, unique and awesome to look at. He has chosen not to remove this signature tattoo. Lloyd Banks' "Rotten Apple" tattoo, which was inspired by his mentor 50's, is another feast for the eyes. Banks had his tattoo done at Miami Ink where Kat Von D, who is also featured below, used to work. Personally, I would not get an upper back tattoo because I think it's more adorning on men. However, a girl must admit that they're eye-catching.

The most popular tattoo trends range from tribal tats to stars and butterflies. I have a lily with stars and swirls on my back. I did not choose my tattoo solely based upon the fact that everyone from Rihanna to Chris Brown has stars tatted all over them. Instead, I chose the lily as a representation of my evolution from a young adult into a woman (I was turning 21). I got the tat at Tattoos by Richie on Hempstead turnpike in Elmont, New York (http://www.tattooingbyrichie.com/). The artist who tatted me was Chris and he did a great job. The shading hurt like hell, but in the end it was all worth it. Would you ever consider stars or tribal tattoos?
