Shawn Mendes might be riding high in the charts with his latest collaboration with Camila Cabello, but he's also found time to get a very unique tattoo and show it off to his fans.
The 'Señorita' pop star has taken to Instagram to reveal to fans the intricate tattoo design, which is in the shape of a butterfly, with one wing made up of detailed flower shapes. And it turns out that Shawn latest tattoo was actually designed by a fan!
Last week, a fan posted an edited photo of Shawn with a 'butterfly tattoo', saying, 'shawn mendes with a butterfly tattoo. i rest my case.' sic Shawn saw the tweet and asked if they could, 'DM the drawing'!
Then, it's understood that after chatting to the original artist for a bit, Shawn got the original drawing and ended up getting the tattoo in the place showed on the edited pic!
The artist then posted a photo of the very detailed design to Instagram, which shows the right-hand side of the butterfly full of intricate flowers, saying, 'I thank you very much for all the messages of love that you have sent me and for appreciating and sharing my art.'
Shawn's tattoo artist also showed off their handiwork, tagging in the original artist saying, 'For the best @shawnmendes Based on an edit from a fan, original art by @macdreaper'.
Meanwhile, in the music world, Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello have recently teamed up for their amazing single, 'Señorita'.
