Another day, another crazy tattoo. This time, Ed Sheeran has updated his ink collection with a very wild addition. The 24-year-old, who was recently linked to Nicole Scherzinger, certainly gave his fans an eyeful yesterday when he took to Instagram to show off his new tatt.

The Sing crooner shared the revealing snap which showcases his new ink: a huge lion on his chest!

Captioned “halfway and ouch”, the lion nearly covers his entire chest. However the stencil is drawn on, indicating he has a long way to go.

The UK singer – who is no stranger to the needle with his arms are covered in full-tatted sleeves – hinted at his tattoo plans earlier, when he told the BBC that he wanted to get the lion of England to celebrate selling out three back-to-back shows at London’s Wembley Stadium.

“Originally I was going to get the floor plan tattooed on my side, but that seemed a bit ridiculous,” said Ed of his upcoming body art. He later changed it to the mascot of the English soccer team.

But Ed’s new tatt certainly isn’t the craziest Hollywood has seen. Check out the wackiest tattoos that Tinseltown has to offer.

“Halfway, ouch”. UK singer Ed Sheeran has shown off his brand new ink addition: a huge lion!

It’s go hard or go home, according to Cheryl Fernandez-Versini aka Cheryl Cole, she ticked “get a tattoo” off her bucket list – in a big way thanks to this intricate floral design which covers her lower back and er, backside!

Miley Cyrus is no stranger to quirky tattoos. Among her favourites are several iPhone emojis (like the crying kitty on her inside lip), her grandmother, song lyrics and a tribute to her lost pup, Floyd.

Harry Styles is another member of the tattooed teen club. He’s know for his scribbles, eclectic additions and for the huge butterfly on his chest.

Cara Delevingne also has a few wacky tatts! She added a tribute tattoo to one of her most beloved things in life: bacon. Of course.

Chris Brown courted some serious controversy when he showed up to an event with a woman’s face etched on his neck that looked suspiciously like a battered Rihanna. He has claimed that the two are unrelated but the resemblance is still eerie.

That’s commitment! Jermaine Dupri wanted to show his love for now ex-girlfriend Janet Jackson loud and proud – and what better way to do that than with a tattoo of her as the Virgin Mary?

According to rapper, T-Pain, he “gets a tattoo every time he goes to Hawaii”. He might have to explain this Facebook-inspired one to his grandkids, though.
