Kim Petras is fulfilling the promise she told fans a few months ago after leaking her own album as she recently announced a new single coming soon which is now available for pre-save.

Taking to her social media accounts, the German pop star shared the official title of her upcoming track called "If Jesus Was a Rockstar" as well as an official cover art.

The visuals feature the "Can't Do Better" hitmaker wearing a star-printed bikini top as she leans out of a yellow pick-up truck while holding a big cross necklace.

As of this writing, the official release date has yet to be announced, but the song is currently available for pre-save on major music streaming platforms like Apple Music and Spotify.

Prior to the announcement, she released the official studio version of her cover of "Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God)" originally sung by Kate Bush. The singer performed it during her set at the Outside Lands Music and Arts festival.

The recent announcement comes just a few weeks after dropping her highly-anticipated collaboration with Sam Smith titled "Unholy."
