Remember a few months
ago when Justin Bieber decided to show off a new tattoo on his ribcage
while on vacation in Hawaii with Selena Gomez?
Well, fan site www.thejustinbiebershrine.com
has released photos of Justin and his father, Jeremy, at the tattoo
parlor getting "Yeshua" (the Hebrew spelling of Jesus) inked in
identical spots on their torsos.
The photos were taken during Bieber’s visit to Israel
at the beginning of May. The Jesus tattoo is not Bieber’s first. He
has a seagull on his left hip that he received on his 16th birthday, and
more recently got an outline of a large star on his left elbow.
It is well known that Bieber is an enthusiastic Christian, but
the pop singer also has a strong connection to Israel. The 17-year-old says his prayers
in both English and Hebrew prior to going on stage.
Additionally,
Bieber was thrilled to visit Israel during his “My World” tour and
found it extremely disrespectful that the paparazzi were bombarding him
which visiting “holy places”.
On Twitter, Bieber wrote “You would think that paparazzi would
have some respect in holy places. All I wanted was the chance to walk
where Jesus did here in Israel”.
