Pop star Katy Perry and ex-Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau got the internet buzzed after being spotted having a cozy dinner at the high-end Le Violon restaurant in Montreal on Monday evening. The encounter follows just days after rehashed news of Perry’s breakup from actor Orlando Bloom.
Engaged Conversation and Elegant Dining
In a video that TMZ procured, Katy Perry is seen intensely in conversation with Trudeau, leaning forward intently across the table. An onlooker said the two seemed relaxed and at ease, enjoying cocktails and tasting gourmet foods, including a lobster dish. Unobtrusive security guards hung about at the bar, eyeing the scene via mirrored glass while remaining in the background.
The evening didn’t end with dinner. Both Perry and Trudeau reportedly took time to visit the kitchen afterward, personally thanking the chef and restaurant staff for their experience.
Both Celebrities Navigating Life Changes
Katy Perry is herself touring across Canada currently, with shows later tonight in Ottawa and tomorrow in Montreal. Her dinner with Trudeau is happening at a time of change in her own life. She and Orlando Bloom, with whom she has a daughter, recently parted ways and are currently co-parenting.
Justin Trudeau has also recently experienced a public breakup. In August 2023, he and Sophie Grégoire ended their 18-year marriage, releasing a joint, respectful, and amicable statement. They have three children together.
