While none of Britney Spears' music is overtly religious, she did kick off her music career by singing in a Baptist church choir (via Deseret News). She then went on to study the mystical branch of Judaism known as Kabbalah when it was trendy in the early '00s, but according to a recent Instagram video, she may have converted to Catholicism. While Spears' religious affiliation may flip-flop at times, there's no doubt that spirituality plays a major role in her life, and several of her tattoos seem to speak to this.
Oh the left side of Spears' bikini line, she has a tattoo of a cross, something Body Art Guru reveals dates back to a particularly difficult period in her life when she may have felt the need for intervention from a higher power. They also feel that the tiny triangle that adorns her right hand between her thumb and index finger could possibly symbolize the Holy Trinity. (At the same time Spears got the triangle tat, she also had a black star added to that same hand, but Pretty Designs says the star was removed about a month later). Some feel that Spears' first tattoo, a fairy on her lower back, could be seen as a holy messenger, thus putting it into the religious category as well, but others feel that it reflects her desire to soar on fairy wings. It could also be that Spears simply just likes fairies.
