Kat Von D has gone public with her conversion to Christianity in a new video that shows her receiving baptism in a church. Baptism is considered one of the foundational rites of initiation into the Christian faith.
The conversion caps more than a year of soul-searching for Kat Von D, the musician, tattoo artist and entrepreneur many know from the reality shows LA Ink and Miami Ink. In 2021, Kat Von D released her debut album as a music artist, Love Made Me Do It.

Last year, Kat Von D shared some of her religious journey on social media when she suggested she was ridding her home of all books dealing with witchcraft and the occult, as Movieguide reported. Before that, she had begun covering her tattoos.
“I don’t know if any of you have been going through changes in your lives right now, but in the last few years, I’ve come to some pretty meaningful realizations — many of them revolving around the fact that I got a lot of things wrong in my past,” Kat Von D wrote in a July 2022 post.
She explained, “I went through my entire library and threw out books that just don’t align with who I am and who I want to be. I’ve always found beauty in the macabre, but at this point, I just had to ask myself what is my relationship with this content? And the truth is, I just don’t want to invite any of these things into our family’s lives, even if it comes disguised in beautiful covers, collecting dust on my shelves.”
