Katy Perry is feeling good about her Super Bowl XLIX halftime performance on Sunday. So good, in fact, that she tattooed the roman numerals XLIX -- or 49, as in Super Bowl 49 -- on her finger and shared it on Instagram.

The singer's show, which included a giant lion/tiger, dancing sharks and obligatory fireworks, as well as guest performances from Lenny Kravitz and Missy Elliott, was well received by the stadium crowd and on social media, creating a huge buzz on Twitter.

We have no way of checking whether the tattoo is real, but hey, celebrating a Super Bowl win with fake ink would be pretty weak, and Katy has done finger tattoos before, so we're guessing it's the real deal.
