Justin Trudeau Confirms Relationship With Katy Perry. “Craziest Hard Launch In History,” Says Internet
Katy Perry and former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau confirmed dating rumours after the pop star joined her boyfriend at a diplomatic lunch with former Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida and his wife Yoko.
What’s Happening
- Katy Perry paused The Lifetimes world tour to meet Justin Trudeau in Tokyo for a mid-day sit-down with Fumio Kishida.
- Sharing a picture from their meeting on X (formerly Twitter), Trudeau wrote, “Great to see you @kishida230. Katy and I were so glad to have the chance to sit down with you and Yuko. Thank you, Fumio, for your friendship and your continued commitment to both the international rules-based order and to a better future for everyone.”
- For the outing, Perry opted for a sleek green two-piece paired with black tights, a turtleneck and boots.
- She placed a hand behind Trudeau as they posed with Kishida and his wife, Yuko. Trudeau wore a grey suit, slipping easily back into a formal, statesman-like look.
- Kishida commented, “Thank you, Justin. Happy holidays to you and Katy!”
