Post Malone visited Jimmy Fallon this past week on The Tonight Show and revealed that it was actually Justin Bieber who inspired his tattoo game (by the way – Post and Justin’s bromance is life!)

 

 

Post explained, “We were working on ‘Stoney’ and we had a tattoo artist come through and then I was just like, ‘You know what? Justin Bieber’s got some tats.  And, I love you, but I know I’m way tougher than you.’  So, I was always so scared to get one, and then I got one.”

 

And you’ll never guess what Post’s first tattoo was … the PLAYBOY BUNNY! “It’s a pretty s***ty tattoo.  It’s a Playboy bunny tattoo.  It was my first tattoo.  I don’t know why.”

The unfortunate part is – Justin might have inspired him but during a real intense basketball game a few days later, Bieber ruined it.  Post says, “I guess Justin was watching this interview in the future when I said I was tougher than him because we played basketball like two days later and he knocked the whole thing off, and it was just blood dripping down my hand.  It kind of looks like my tattoo got dropped in lava, but I like the story anyway.”

 

But don’t worry – the bromance is still alive and well! When word got out that Justin was engaged to Hailey Baldwin, Post told TMZ that he’d gladly be the ring bearer for the wedding.

 

P.S. someone got himself a haircut!
