Adam Lambert has dismissed speculation that his tattoo is an ode to Satanism.

The vocal powerhouse unleashed on Tuesday (November 27) two pictures of a new piece of body art which he has had inked onto his right arm.

The dark image appears to show a human's face with horns coming out of their temples, with the singer tweeting at the time: "It represents my Astrological Birth Chart, along with Pagan, Buddhist, and Greco- Roman Archetypes related to balance and the life cycle."

However, he returned to the social networking website after his tattoo aroused Satanic suspicions. He said:

"Tattoo has nothing to do w Satanism... That's stupid. Greek Mythology? Yes. PAN. The Internet loves these foolish Illuminati conspiracies."

Lambert meanwhile added: "I took a few days [off] of shaving. Not trying to cultivate a 'mastache'. ;)"
