Katy Perry flashes Jesus tattoo on her wrist on Easter Sunday amid real estate row with nuns
She celebrated Easter by showing off the Jesus tattoo on her wrist under a multi-colored light on Instagram.
And Katy Perry added a caption saying: 'My brokeness + God's Divinity = my wholeness.'
Ironically, the post comes as the 33-year-old is mired in a heated legal battle with a nun over a hill-top convent on eight acres of land in the Los Feliz neighborhood of Los Angeles.
Easter greetings: Katy Perry, who is embroiled in a court case with nuns over ownership of a convent in Los Feliz, Los Angeles, flashed this Jesus tattoo on Easter Sunday

The case dates back to 2015 when Katy, the daughter of Evangelical pastors, tried to buy the property from the Archdiocese Of Los Angeles for $14.5m.
But the the remaining sisters of the California Institute of the Sisters of the Most Holy and Immaculate Heart of the Blessed Virgin Mary filed a lawsuit against the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Los Angeles to keep Perry from acquiring the property.
The nuns Catherine Rose Holzman and Rita Callanan reportedly had already sold the property to restaurateur-hotelier Dana Hollister.
Katy and the Archdiocese Of Los Angeles, which contended that it owned the property, fought back and sued Hollister for interfering with the deal.

A jury later found Hollister guilty of interference and she was ordered to pay $3.47 million to the archdiocese and $1.57 million to the American Idol judge as compensation for court fees.
Meanwhile, the case became even darker when Sister Catherine Rose, 85, died after collapsing in court last month.
A few days later, Sister Rita made headlines with her claims she was so broke from the legal battle she is worried she will go hungry.
Shortly before her death, Sister Catherine Rose asked Katy to drop the legal back-and-forth.

She said: 'To Katy Perry, please stop. It's not doing anyone any good except hurting a lot of people.'
The Sisters of the Most Holy And Immaculate Heart Of The Blessed Virgin Mary had owned the property for more than 40 years, but haven't lived in the convent for several years.
The Archdiocese of Los Angeles also needs permission from the Vatican to finalize the sale to the pop siren.
The property includes a Roman-villa style building with an attached convent that had closed in 2011, Variety reported.
