Louis Tomlinson of English-Irish band One Direction has reportedly got himself inked on his derriere at a tattoo parlour here.

A photograph uploaded on Snapchat shows the singer lying on his stomach with his trousers pulled down while the tattoo is being done, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

When asked by fans on Instagram what inking Tomlinson got, tattoo artist Erik Gillespie replied: "I tattooed him, he got several tattoos."

However, the artist did not disclose what the tattoos were.

The musician was later spotted out and about here, sporting a fresh tattoo of the number two on his left ring finger and the number eight on the middle finger of the same hand.

The number 28 is the singer's jersey number for soccer club Doncaster Rovers, which he joined as a non-contract player during the 2013-2014 season.
