Katy Perry and Former Canadian PM Justin Trudeau 'Smitten' After Public Display of Affection in Japan

Pop superstar Katy Perry and former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau are reportedly deeply smitten with each other, according to a report by Page Six.

The couple officially confirmed their relationship over the weekend in Japan, with Perry sharing photos on social media. The images featured the two stars smiling brightly with their faces close together, and Trudeau gazing affectionately at Perry as she ate.

Sources close to Trudeau suggest that Perry has provided a much-needed boost to his self-esteem, especially after facing pressure from his party and a decline in popularity earlier this year.

Perry, too, has been in need of positive publicity following recent controversies, including backlash over her participation in a space flight and lackluster music releases.

The pair were first rumored to be dating in July after being spotted having dinner in Montreal, Canada. Subsequent sightings included Trudeau attending Perry's concert in Montreal and photos of them embracing on a yacht near Santa Barbara, California.

Netizens reacted with surprise and intrigue to the news. Comments included, "Wow, so the rumors were true!", "They look happy together, age is just a number," and "Hope this relationship brings them both joy and support."
