Justin Trudeau and Katy Perry's Yacht Kiss Sparks Social Media Frenzy and Political Criticism

Katy Perry caught kissing Justin Trudeau

Former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau became the target of intense online criticism after images surfaced showing him kissing singer Katy Perry aboard her yacht in Santa Barbara, California.

In the viral photos and videos, Perry appears in a black swimsuit sharing an intimate moment with a shirtless Trudeau. The pair was also seen embracing, with Trudeau nuzzling Perry's cheek as they relaxed together on the yacht's deck.

The images quickly spread across multiple social media platforms, triggering numerous reactions.

One X user commented, "Justin Trudeau and Katy Perry. One pretended to be an astronaut. One pretended to be a Prime Minister."

Another social media user remarked, "This conceivably means we're heading toward a future where Katy Perry writes songs about Justin Trudeau. What is life?"

A particularly critical comment stated, "What kind of guy Justin Trudeau is? He is not sincere to his wife and kids even. Leave the country which he left in tatters. Shameless."

The reactions continued with expressions of disbelief, with one comment simply saying, "Oh my God, oh my God seriously."

One user expressed deeper concerns beyond the relationship: "I couldn't care less who Trudeau is dating. What bothers me is this guy ruined the lives of millions, pushed hatred towards a group of Canadians, was found guilty of violating Canadians Charter of Rights & Freedoms and he's out there living his best life like none of it matters anymore. I want accountability for what he did."

Justin Trudeau announced his separation from wife Sophie Gregoire Trudeau in 2023, ending their 18-year marriage. They have three children together: Xavier (18), Ella-Grace (16), and Hadrien (11). Since stepping down as Prime Minister earlier this year, Trudeau has maintained a relatively low profile.

Katy Perry has a five-year-old daughter, Daisy Dove Bloom, with actor Orlando Bloom. Her previous marriage to comedian Russell Brand lasted from 2010 to 2012.

Trudeau and Perry were previously spotted dining together in Montreal in July at the French restaurant Le Violon, suggesting their relationship may have been developing for some time.
