Loves it!

While spending the holiday in India with her boyfriend Russell Brand, Katy Perry immersed herself in the culture and got a Henna tattoo.

She sent out this pic yesterday via her Twitter and explains:

"I'm typing this with one hand… Isn't it lovely? It's Henna!"

It is indeed quite lovely!

Don't you just feel so cultured and shiz?!

      Experiencing the culture like living spitting distance from Anaheim and then spending a whole day in a city with so much Chinese culture to offer, like Hong Kong, and visiting their Disneyland.

      Re: leylam

      There is very persuasive evidence that henna was used by the Neolithic people in Catal Huyuk, in the 7th millenum BCE to ornament their hands in connection with their fertility goddess. The religion these people practiced was the predecessor to the religions of all the people in the ancient Middle East, and henna seems to have been used by all of these people as part of their adornment and belief system. The earliest civilizations that can be proved to have used henna include the Babylonians, Assyrians, Sumerians, Semites, Ugaritics and Canaanites.

      The earliest written artifact that mentions henna being used specifically as an adornment for a bride or woman's special occasion is in the Ugaritic legend of Baal and Anath, inscribed on a tablet from about 2100 BCE, from north west Syria. Anath was a goddess of fertility and battle. In the legend, she adorned her hands with henna before battle, and brides ornamented their hands with henna as a preparation for wedding. As henna is mentioned as a part of a legend, may be inferred that henna was in use by the Ugaritic people, as a bridal tradition, and as a women's celebratory cosmetic along the eastern coast of the Mediterranian for many centuries prior to 2000 BCE.

      Get your shit right moron.

      Henna (mehendi) is a traditional beauty product used by women during any occasion (weddings, religious holidays, parties, etc. ) I`ve been using it since the age of 6 lol. For all those who are freaking out about it being permanent, it isn't. It typically lasts for about 5-7 days. @Dave_O , it isn't poisonous, it's a natural dye extracted from henna leaves.
