A mum who named her dog after Sean Paul has now met the rapper and got a tattoo of his autograph.
Super fan Suzanne Downs plays the Jamaican star's music multiple times a day and has a collection of his memorabilia. The 44-year-old has even named her 18-month-old German Shephard 'Shauna Paul' after the prolific hitmaker.
On Tuesday night, Sean Paul performed his first UK date of his 'Scorcha' tour at the O2 City Hall in Newcastle. Suzanne, from Morpeth, Northumberland, attended the gig with her three sisters.

After the show, Suzanne and her sister Aimee, 27, were invited backstage to meet Sean Paul. The mum-of-four asked him for a picture, two hugs and his autograph. She then spent Wednesday afternoon getting his autograph inked onto her thigh.
Suzanne, who works as a nursing assistant, said: "I wanted to just squeeze him. He was very chilled but he was lovely. I told him I'd named my dog after him and he just laughed.
"I tried to get his t-shirt off his back but he was having none of that. He said yes to everything apart from taking his t-shirt of his back.
"The man who did my tattoo didn't know who Sean Paul was. He thought it was going to be a loved one that had passed away. He is a loved one but he's hasn't passed away! It's a memory, I will look at it and remember that night."
Suzanne attended Sean Paul's gig wearing a t-shirt with his face on and the words 'Please take me home with you'. Two of her sisters wore matching t-shirts which said 'Please take her home with you'.
She said she'd been speaking to a member of Sean Paul's team before the show and had asked if it was possible to get a picture with him. She said Aimee caught the attention of the two DJs supporting him when she threw her bra at them.
Suzanne said that the DJs had asked people to throw clothes and told her sister that she would get to meet Sean Paul. She said they were at the very front near the stage and Sean Paul threw one of his towels at her.
When the gig came to an end, Suzanne and her sister were given back stage passes to meet Sean Paul by a member of his team. She said: "I had a good time and I wish I could do it all again.
"When I got up this morning I thought oh my god I cuddled Sean Paul. It was definitely one of the best nights I have ever had, normally I just watch Netflix!"
