LONDON -- The force is with you, Zayn Malik. And, thanks to his new epic Star Wars tattoo, it always will be.

The singer's right hand now features an inking of a lightsaber. We're not talking about any old lightsaber, though. This is a glow-in-the-dark lightsaber.

Tattoo artist to the stars Jon Boy posted a photo of the ex 1D-er's new tattoo, which has been etched in UV ink.
