One of today's hottest R&B stars got some inspiration from the late, great rapper Tupac Shakur.

Paying homage to the T.H.U.G. L.I.F.E. tattoo emblazoned across Tupac's stomach, this fashion-forward singer got the same phrase inked on her knuckles—but in pink!

Who is she?

Twitter

Rihanna! The 23-year-old Barbadian beauty tweeted a photo Wednesday of her new body art, including a Drake lyric, "Tat my f--king name on you so I know it's real."

She also posted lyrics from Rick Ross' "Tupac Back," saying, "All these b*tches screaming that 2Pac back."

Tupac's "T.H.U.G. L.I.F.E." tattoo was an acronym for "The hate you give little infants, f--k everyone."

Whether or not Ri-Ri wants her "Thug Life" tat to stand for the same thing is a mystery. Either way, we're glad her she spelled out her message in pink ink!
