Justin Trudeau ‘down bad’ at Katy Perry concert as fans spot former PM mouthing ‘Dark Horse’ lyrics with daughter

Wait 5 sec.

Former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was spotted at Katy Perry’s sold-out “Lifetimes” tour concert in Montreal on Wednesday night. The 53-year-old politician attended the show at Bell Centre just days after sparking romance rumors with the pop star following their dinner date earlier this week. According to Page Six, Trudeau was seen front and center among the 21,000-strong crowd, beaming as he watched Perry perform. He attended the concert with his 16-year-old daughter Ella-Grace, and photos shared on social media showed the pair dancing together during the show. In one viral image, Trudeau appeared completely captivated by Perry’s performance and was caught mouthing the words to her 2013 hit song ‘Dark Horse.’ The sight of the former Prime Minister at the concert sparked plenty of reactions from fans on social media. “Bro must be DOWN BAD if he’s willing to go to lifetimes concert,” one user wrote on X. Others joked about the unusual pairing, which would certainly defy expectations in a year when many beloved celebrity couples have called it quits, with one fan writing, “Imagine getting good seats at a concert and you see a former head of state just hanging out to support his new girlfriend.” Romance rumors began with a Montreal dinner date The concert appearance came just days after Trudeau and Perry were spotted having dinner together at Le Violon, a high-end restaurant in Montreal. According to witnesses who spoke to TMZ, the 13-time Grammy nominee looked smitten during their intimate conversation. The pair shared cocktails and multiple dishes, including lobster, and were fully engaged in their chat throughout the evening. Apparently dinner dates with Justin Trudeau lol but he has left shark energy at times— Brittani (@TheBrittWithAnI) July 31, 2025 After dinner, Perry and Trudeau continued their night out at Taverne Atlantic for drinks. They took time to speak with the chef and thank the kitchen staff before leaving the restaurant. The dinner sparked immediate speculation about a possible romantic connection between the unlikely pair. The following day, the two were seen spending more time together at Mount Royal Park in Montreal. They took a leisurely walk for about an hour, enjoying the city views. While they appeared comfortable in each other’s company, witnesses reported that they did not show any public displays of affection during their stroll. Both recently ended long-term relationships The rumored romance comes at a time when both Perry and Trudeau are newly single. Perry recently ended her engagement to actor Orlando Bloom after 10 years together, with reports suggesting their relationship had been breaking down for months. The former couple released a joint statement saying they would continue to co-parent their 4-year-old daughter Daisy Dove with “love, stability, and mutual respect.” Trudeau also went through a major relationship change in 2023 when he separated from his wife Sophie Gregoire Trudeau after 18 years of marriage. The former couple shares three children together: 17-year-old Xavier, 16-year-old Ella-Grace, and 11-year-old Hadrien. Trudeau stepped down as Prime Minister earlier this year after serving in the role since 2015.
