Earlier this week, rapper Diamond stirred up controversy after tattooing a bullet by her ear. After announcing that life only gives us one shot, she revealed an image of the new tattoo through her Twitter account. 

She has become a part of the facial tattoo group that has included Lil Wayne, Game and Baby in the past as well as Gucci Mane and Yung LA more recently.

Some people reacting to her new tattoo did not believe Diamond’s was authentic, so she felt the need to use the controversy and the questions as a means to promote her latest project.
