As you do...

A singer has got a tattoo of Harry Styles on her cheek in an apparent bid to secure a musical collaboration.

US singer Kelsy Karter, a superfan of the former One Direction star, shared an image of her new inking via her Instagram yesterday (January 28).

Fans were shocked by Karter’s decision, with some calling her “crazy” and an”idiot”. Another wrote, “I hope that ain’t real, your face looks so beautiful naturally”.

The LA-based singer has previously said how much she would like to work with Styles.

In a 2018 interview with i-D, the artist said, “Let’s work, Harry. Where you at? Mark my words: I’m getting a song on his album.” She added that she feels like a “female version” of Styles who “opened the door” for her.

Karter’s Instagram post, which also features a picture of her next to tattoo artist Roman Lacoste, has amassed more than 32,000 likes to date. Despite the big numbers, it’s unclear if the tattoo is real.

In a tweet sent earlier in January, Karter hinted at a bold move.

“Finally know what I’m getting Harry for his birthday,” she wrote.

Karter isn’t the only musician who’s vying for a collaboration with Styles. Earlier this month, The 1975’s Matty Healy said that he wishes to produce Styles’ next solo album.

Healy tweeted: “Hey @harry_Styles me and George [Daniel, The 1975 drummer] really wanna produce your next album hmu if you wanna it’s cool if not tho I know you’re like super busy etc love!!!!!”
