We’ll keep this post short since there are more pressing news stories than Chris Brown’s neck tattoos.

"His tattoo is a sugar skull [associated with the Mexican celebration of the Day of the Dead] and a MAC cosmetics design he saw," [Brown’s rep told the good people at TMZ.](http://www.tmz.com/2012/09/11/chris-brown-tattoo-sugar-skull-day-of-the-dead-rihanna/) "It is not Rihanna or an abused woman as erroneously reported."
