# US senator questions how Trudeau met Katy Perry 2026-08-07T20:25:14+00:00 | World & Diplomacy | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Alabama Senator Katie Britt has questioned how former Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau and pop star Katy Perry met, after the couple were seen in France celebrating what is being called their first anniversary. Britt said it was odd to see Trudeau, who once led a country, now frolicking with Perry. “Who introduced them?” she asked, noting they could not have met on a dating app. Trudeau and Perry were first spotted together in Montreal in July 2025, shortly after Perry’s split from Orlando Bloom and Trudeau’s divorce from Sophie Grégoire. They have since been seen at Davos, Coachella and the Tribeca Film Festival. The relationship marks a shift from Trudeau’s political life to celebrity culture. An NYT feature noted historical parallels, including Trudeau’s father Pierre dating Barbra Streisand. Trudeau faced criticism for skipping Canada’s FIFA World Cup match to attend the opening match in Los Angeles. ## Coverage - timesofindia.indiatimes.com - economictimes.indiatimes.com Tags: celebrity, Justin Trudeau, Katie Britt, Katy Perry, politics, romance Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/us-senator-finds-trudeau-katy-perry-frolicking-odd/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
