Rihanna got another tattoo to add to her collection, but this one is different. “Never a failure, only a lesson” is Rihanna’s new motto.  She had the tattoo written backwards on her right shoulder so that she could read it while looking in the mirror.  Wow, how clever Rihanna!

East Side Ink owner and artist Keith “Bang Bang” McCurdy told OK! in an exclusive interview that Rihanna was on a mission when she arrived at 2:00 a.m on December 7, 2009.

“She told me in advance she’d be coming, and then when she got there, she told me what she wanted,” McCurdy said. “I asked her why she wanted that and she said, ‘It’s kind of my motto in life for everything.’ Instead of considering things to be mistakes, considering them lessons.”

I guess being publicly humiliated by Chris Brown’s beatings has really changed Rihanna as a person. She came out of this strong as ever. I just don’t understand tattoos sometimes. Why would you want to be reminded of such a terrible time in your life? I understand that you learn a lesson from each mistake you make, but come on, move on from it. Don’t remind yourself of it EVERYDAY!
