CELEBRITIES have already made 2018 a banner year for terrible tattoos with many in the running to be crowned best of the worst.
This week Chris Brown's ex Karreuche Tran revealed her own charming addition - a zip design down the back of her right leg.

The American actress was spotted on a beach in Miami wearing a tiny pink bikini that left little to the imagination.
A fondness for dodgy tatts is clearly something she had in common with her ex, who is known for his tattoo of an unrecognisable Rihanna on the side of his neck.
Though when it comes to odd inkings, Ed Sheeran is certainly up there as one of the main offenders, with his full arm sleeves of random memorabilia inspired by his life - including a Lego head.
And Cheryl stunned her fans when she unveiled her huge rose tattoo, which covered the whole of her lower back and her bum.
