Katy Perry has never been one to shy away from a little drama—but at the O Son do Camiño festival in Spain, she brought the theatrics straight to her dating life. During her performance of Never Really Over, the 40-year-old pop star stood in front of a massive smartphone prop that mimicked incoming calls from a list of exes. The screen lit up with names like Orlando Bloom and John Mayer, as Perry mockingly swiped them away, leaving the crowd howling with laughter.
Call Log Comedy
According to fan-shot footage, Perry treated the bit like a live-action dating app, rejecting call after call before one final name appeared: Justin Trudeau. The former Canadian Prime Minister’s name was met with a cheeky wink from Perry, who then blew a kiss to the audience. The moment felt less like a coincidence and more like a cleverly scripted nod to the romance rumors that have swirled since the two were spotted having an intimate dinner together during Perry’s world tour break.
This is the same festival where the sun reportedly blazed at nearly 30°C—perfect weather for some onstage shade. The cheeky swipes come as Perry continues to navigate the post-Orlando-Bloom chapter of her life with humor and high-fashion flair.
Trudeau Connection Heats Up
While Perry’s ex-husband Russell Brand didn’t make the call list, the inclusion of longtime on-and-off flame Bloom and brief fling John Mayer—both of whom are well-documented in pop culture history—made it clear that Perry is embracing her single era with a wink. The Trudeau nod, however, has sparked even more curiosity. The two were seen leaving a private dinner together in recent weeks, and sources close to the singer have hinted at a “fun, flirty connection.”
It’s a stark contrast to the blistering heatwave that gripped much of Europe during the festival weekend. Met Éireann forecasters described the conditions as “tropical nights,” with temperatures peaking at 30°C in some areas—fitting energy for a set that mixed simmering pop anthems with simmering romantic tension.
Dua Lipa’s Chanel Extravaganza
Across the pop landscape, Dua Lipa is also making headlines—but for an entirely different kind of relationship milestone. She finally unveiled the jaw-dropping custom Chanel Haute Couture gown she wore for her June 6 wedding celebration with Callum Turner in Sicily. The dress, which took over 1,100 hours of needlework and featured 480,000 beads and 25,000 feathers, was accompanied by a veil embroidered with birds and flowers that required an additional 3,000 hours of handwork. Lipa captioned the Instagram carousel simply, “Mr & Mrs.” It was the first Chanel Haute Couture wedding gown to be worn at a celebrity nuptials in years, marking a fashion moment as monumental as the marriage itself.
While Dua settles into marital bliss and Chanel-bejeweled memories, Katy Perry is clearly enjoying the single life—with a little help from a very funny, very viral phone prop. Whether the Trudeau call leads to a real conversation or just another swipe left, one thing is certain: Katy Perry’s tour is anything but boring.
