It is nothing new for celebrities to get tattoos as they have always chosen interesting designs and placements that have inspired many to follow suit. This usually leads to a rise in demand for certain tattoos, just like the tattoo on her sternum which was made popular by celebrities such as Rihanna.

Sternum tattoos are placed on the chest area, close to the breasts, and are sometimes referred to as under-boob tattoos. It is a great spot to add any design as wild as your imagination can take you since it stays quite hidden unless you choose to show it off.

Getting a tattoo on the sternum is not advisable for newbies because the sternum is a large bone along the center of the ribs. This part of the body is very bony which makes it very painful to get inked. By any means do not let the sensitive nature of this tattoo placement stop you from taking design cues from your favorite celebs below. With how cool they look you will start to wonder why you don’t have a sternum tattoo already.

Lena Dunham’s Warrior chandelier

Of course, we can’t talk about Riri’s tattoo on the sternum without mentioning the infamous copycat. Lena admitted to feeling inspired by Rhianna to get a warrior chest plate chandelier. The HBO Girls writer, star, and creator tagged the tattoo as cool which only means she loves the addition to her skin.

Angel Haze’s Religious cross tattoo on sternum

Raykeea is an American singer and rapper, known for her Reservation EP. Her many tattoo designs with powerful meanings never fail to express her spirituality through her body art. Angel has the three crosses tattoo on her sternum, which we can safely assume means the cross of Jesus and the two thieves he was hanged with. The message is passed without any explanation.

Latto’s Life quote

Alyssa Stephens, formerly known as Mullato, is a rapper from America who rose to fame after winning The Rap Game Lifetime’s contest. We are not here to talk about her rap flow but about the tattoo on her sternum which is quite unique. It is a quote that says “TRUST NO ONE” and is written in red to depict the deep meaning it holds. It is, however, inked cryptically to tone down the severity of the words. If this was a rap line, we say it’s a dope design that should sink into your chest.
