It’s an interesting choice of tattoo for the singer, who was raised Catholic and who has been seen practicing her Christian faith at the Hillsong Church, which her ex-boyfriend Justin Bieber introduced her to.
The new ink joins Selena’s other tattoos, which include the number 76 in Roman Numerals on the nape of her neck, a phrase on her upper left hip that reads ‘God Who Strengthens Me’, a musical note on her right wrist, and ‘love yourself first’ written in Arabic.
She was also recently spotted with a new tattoo below her ear and upon her neck that appeared to be an initial.
