MANILA, Philippines — Pop singer Katy Perry marked her 41st birthday by publicly unveiling she is dating former Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau.
Over the weekend, Katy and Justin attended a cabaret show at the Crazy Horse Paris to celebrate the former’s birthday.
The two exited the theater holding hands, with Katy accepting a rose and birthday greeting from a fan as a smiling Justin looked on.
A source told People Magazine that while Katy is focused on her ongoing “Lifetimes” tour, Justin has “made a real effort to meet her where she is — literally.”
“She’s flattered. He’s shown that he’s committed and really cares about spending time with her,” the source continued. “It’s clear that he values the connection, and so does Katy. She’s in a great place.”
The same source added Katy never expected to be dating the politician but is “really enjoying this surprising life twist.”

Another source told the outlet that while both individuals have busy schedules, they are making time for each other and have a really strong connection.
“Katy didn’t expect to fall for somebody so soon, but Justin checks all the boxes. He has a great sense of humor, he’s charming and treats her with respect,” the second source also said.
The new showbiz couple’s public appearance comes after the two were spotted having dinner and going for a walk in Montreal, where Justin later watched Katy’s “Lifetimes” stop in the city.
Just last month, photos of Katy and Justin circulated online showing them sharing a kiss on the singer’s yacht in California waters.
Both individuals have already separated from their previous marriages. Last July, Katy confirmed breaking up with fiance Orlando Bloom after a nine-year on-and-off relationship while in 2023, Justin separated from his wife Sophie Grégoire after 18 years of marriage.
Justin, who resigned as Canadian prime minister earlier this year, shares three children with Sophie while Katy has one daughter, Daisy Dove, with the actor Orlando.
