Singer Taylor Swift is said to be too scared of the tattoo needles and recently backed out of getting an inking.

The singer and her best friend Ed Sheeran paid a visit to Toronto's Lucky 13 Tattoo shop recently. Sources say Sheeran convinced Swift that it was high time she stopped inking her trademark "13" on her hand before every show with a Sharpie and and get it tattooed on for good, reported Showbizspy.

"Taylor was literally shaking in her boots. She kept whining stuff like, 'it's going to hurt', and 'what if I don't like it, what will I do?'," a source said.
 

Sheeran, who's got "Red" tattooed on his arm in honour of Swift's hit album, kept reassuring her, "I'll be right there holding your hand... You're gonna love it."

Finally caving, Swift was just about to get inked when a loud scream came from the next room.

"What was that?," she gasped. To which the tattoo artist said, "Oh, don't worry! It's a friend of mine getting his first tattoo but he's a big baby!"

Swift ran of the shop, saying "No way!".
