Cool tattoos are cool tattoos, regardless of who they belong to.

Sure, you might not expect former boyband members to feature too prominently round this way, but Zayn Malik has earned it. Not only has the former One Direction member got a light saber tattoo, but he's got one that seemingly glows in the fucking dark. That's got to be worth something, right? Tattoo artist Jonboy - who has worked with Justin Bieber, among others - shared this photo of the new tattoo, made using UV ink. https://www.instagram.com/p/BH3BBd0AKpQ/?taken-by=jonboytattoo Malik's eye-catching face tattoo may have been fake, but this one appears to be the real deal. The reaction from One Direction fans has been broadly positive, with plenty of all-caps responses. https://twitter.com/champaynelouxo/status/753719001788911616 https://twitter.com/HarryIsARobot/status/753718592022024192 Oh, and the fact that it's on his middle finger hasn't gone unnoticed. https://twitter.com/imperialzjm/status/753727481778212864 https://twitter.com/ZaynReport/status/753724659955273728 It might not quite be on the level of this Simpsons tattoo, but we're putting it towards the top of our rankings. We've decided to slot it in just below Alberto Moreno's monkey-with-a-gun effort, but comfortably ahead of the 'chat shit, get banged' tattoo that one football fan got when Leicester City won the Premier League.
