Jordin Sparks is getting a new tattoo.

The 20-year-old singer wants to get an inking on her foot after previously having etchings done on other parts of her body, but is still undecided on a design and has asked fans for suggestions.

She tweeted: "I think Im getting a new tattoo. Yep. What do you think I should get?

"So, I have tattoos on my finger, hip, neck, wrist and spine. Im thinking of getting this one on my foot and yes, it will mean something 2 me. :) (sic)"

The 'No Air' star insists she doesn't mind the pain of getting tattoos because it "tickles" more than hurts.

She added: "my first one was my bros name behind my ear. I get asked about it all the time when my hair is up. :)

"it actually tickled! my head shook because of the vibes from the needle! But tattoos are all relative to pain tolerance! (sic)"

Jordin isn't the only star to claim having a tattoo - which involves an ink-covered needle being repeatedly stabbed into your skin to change the pigmentation - doesn't hurt.

Miley Cyrus - who has 'Just Breathe' etched under her left breast in tribute to her late grandfathers and one of her closest friends, who died of cystic fibrosis - insists she didn't feel any pain because the inking had so much meaning for her.

She said: "It really doesn't hurt if you're thinking about the meaning. I could never get a meaningless tattoo, but I think that if you're doing something that's important, that's significant in your life, it takes some of the pain away."
