Katy Perry Hard Launches Justin Trudeau Romance During Japan Trip

Katy Perry is ready for a perfect storm.

Katy Perry, known for her hit song “California Gurls,” confirmed she’s dating Justin Trudeau with a post on social media. The confirmation came four months after rumors of a romantic connection began, and she shared photos from their recent trip to Japan with her fans.

Katy Perry, 41, recently shared photos and videos on Instagram from her trip to Canada, where she performed on her Lifetimes Tour a few days prior. The post included a cute selfie of her with former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, both smiling in a beautiful autumn landscape.

Okay, I’m losing it! Katy just posted the cutest little video of her and Justin in Tokyo! It’s a short black and white clip of them on what looks like a date – they were sitting right next to each other, trying all the local food. Seriously, the way she captioned it – “Tokyo times on tour and more” – it just feels so… intimate! I’m already replaying it a million times. They’re just the cutest, I swear!

While traveling, Katy and Justin had the opportunity to meet with Japan’s former Prime Minister Fumio Kishida and his wife, Yuko Kishida. They took a group photo together in front of a Christmas tree.

Justin posted on X (formerly Twitter) on December 4th that he and Katy were happy to meet with Fumio and Yuko. He thanked Fumio for his friendship and dedication to global stability and a brighter future for all.

After singer Katy Perry ended her engagement with Orlando Bloom earlier this year, she and Justin Trudeau, who separated from his wife Sophie Grégoire Trudeau in 2023, were first linked romantically in July when they had dinner together in Montreal. Since then, they’ve been seen together publicly several times, including a trip to a Paris cabaret show in October to celebrate the singer’s birthday.

Soon after, Katy gave Justin a little shout-out on social media. She posted a video on Instagram of herself getting a birthday cake backstage at a concert. Sharp-eyed fans noticed Justin clapping and smiling in the background as she blew out the candles.
