Just when you thought the summer couldn’t get any more surprising, Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau have everyone talking.
The pop star and the former Canadian Prime Minister were spotted getting cozy over dinner in Montreal—and it wasn’t just the wine that had people buzzing.
Fresh from a Breakup, Perry Steps Out with a New Companion
Katy Perry, 40, is still picking up the pieces from her recent split with Orlando Bloom, but it looks like she’s wasting no time stepping back into the social scene.
This week, she was seen enjoying what looked like a flirty dinner with none other than 53-year-old Justin Trudeau.
The unlikely pair were filmed deep in conversation at Le Violon, a romantic restaurant tucked away in the heart of Montreal.
Naturally, fans and social media users went into overdrive speculating whether something more than friendship is brewing between the two.
Body Language Expert Weighs In on the Dinner Date
According to renowned body language analyst Judi James, this wasn’t just a casual catch-up over pasta.
Speaking exclusively to the Daily Mail, James said, “There are at least three non-verbal cues that we tend to associate with flirting on a date.”
She pointed out that Perry and Trudeau weren’t just seated at a private table—they were leaning in close, with their heads almost touching.
“That kind of closeness usually signals undivided attention,” she explained, adding that it also allows for lower, more intimate tones in conversation.
Flirty Gestures and “Look at Me” Signals
Judi James didn’t stop there. She highlighted one especially telling moment: Perry placing her hand near her ear or cupping her face while listening.
These movements, she says, help draw attention to the face in a classic “I’m beautiful, look at me” gesture.
Perry also appeared to engage in what James calls “non-physical stroking,” using compliments, smiles, and nods to flatter Trudeau and show she was locked into the moment.
“Smiling and nodding like this shows interest, warmth, and agreement—it’s how rapport gets built,” James said.
Both Are Healing From Heartbreak
It’s been a rocky road for both stars. Katy recently ended her long-running relationship with actor Orlando Bloom, with whom she shares a four-year-old daughter, Daisy.
The couple had been together since 2016, got engaged on Valentine’s Day 2019, and officially confirmed their breakup just last month after months of speculation.
Meanwhile, Justin Trudeau shocked the world last year when he announced his separation from wife Sophie Grégoire Trudeau, following 18 years of marriage. The two share three children.
Sophie had been a childhood friend of Trudeau’s late brother, Michel, who tragically died in an avalanche in 1998.
A New Chapter for Katy and Justin?
Trudeau stepped down as Prime Minister earlier this year in a surprise move that many saw as the end of an era in Canadian politics.
Just days later, Donald Trump returned to office in the U.S., marking a major shift in the political landscape.
Now, as Katy continues her Lifetimes Tour and Justin settles into life away from the spotlight, the two may have found unexpected comfort in each other’s company.
Whether it’s romance, friendship, or just mutual admiration, one thing’s for sure—they’ve got everyone watching.
