Nick Cannon Shows Of New Tattoo Covering His Ex-Wife's Name

Nick Cannon wants the world to know when it comes to his split from Mariah Carey, he has Jesus on his side. The 33-year-old first showed a sneak peak of the very large tattoo he needed to cover up his existing ink of his soon-to-be ex's name last week, but on Monday in Los Angeles, California, the star's new addition was seen clearly for the first time. He reportedly got Mariah tattooed across the top of his back as a wedding present in 2008 and the only way to get rid of the tattoo was to go even bigger.

Stepping out shirtless after a workout at the gym, the new tattoo was revealed in all its religious glory. With its wings outstretched from behind it explodes a heavily shaded pattern inspired by the way heavenly light is shown on stain glass windows.

While the curl on the end of the H is just visible, the heavy pattern distracts from it and completely obliterates the rest of the old tattoo. So extensive is the work that it would have taken at least 10 gruelling hours in the tattoo artist's chair.
