Chris Brown's love of tattoos is far from fading as the singer has etched yet another inking on his body, this time of a lion.

The 'Don't Judge Me' hitmaker shared a photo on his Instagram account this week of a lion's head in full view on the front of his throat. "Symbol of Christ and Freedom!"

Chris wrote alongside the photo/ Breezy sparked controversy in September when he stepped out with a new tattoo of what appeared to be the face of a battered woman on the front, with many branding the move insensitive in light of his assault on his ex-girlfriend Rihanna.

Chris later explained the tatt, claiming it was inspired by a MAC cosmetics design and the Mexican celebration of the Day of the Dead.

One person who will appreciate the new tattoo is Rihanna, who also has several on her body, and whom he is rumoured to be reconciling with after dumping model Karrueche Tran.
