Shawn Mendes gets sister’s name tattooed

Shawn Mendes has got his sister’s name tattooed on his chest.

The ‘In My Blood’ hitmaker has had a new inking done of his sister’s name, Aaliyah Maria, on the right side of his chest.

Kane Navasard, a Los Angeles based tattoo artist shared a photo of the inking with the caption: "A sweet dedication, on the man @shawnmendes. (sic)"

Meanwhile, Shawn previously opened up about his fans, and how he feels "so connected" to them when he’s on stage.

He wrote on Instagram: "It’s taken me 24 hours be able to wrap my head around how breathtaking playing in Toronto was … I’ve never experienced something so moving in my entire life … 76 shows done & I just want to say thank you with all of my heart to every single one of you. I want you all to feel so proud of this tour … this is just as much yours as it is mine so look around and see what you’ve done! I truly feel so connected with you guys when I’m on stage, it’s my favourite thing in the world and we get to feel magic every single night. I love you the most … Thank you North America for a beautiful summer (sic)"

And Shawn also urged his fans to "be compassionate" toward themselves.

Speaking amidst the coronavirus pandemic, he shared: "Allow yourself to feel. Don’t be frustrated with yourself if you feel trapped or stressed. This is a hard time for everyone and you deserve patience from yourself. My emotions have been all over the place … some days I’m okay, and others it’s scary. Acknowledging the feelings out loud helps me process them and move forward. I am trying to be kind and compassionate to myself. You’re allowed to watch movies all day if that’s what your heart needs."
