Some praised the move as bold, romantic, and a modern twist on celebrity + diplomacy. Others were more skeptical — questioning the blending of pop stardom and political legacy, or what it signals about public image and privacy. Meanwhile, fans of Perry expressed happiness at seeing her in a new chapter, apparently supportive of her apparent joy and renewed personal life.
For Perry — an international pop icon — this marks a shift: from high-profile concert tours and celebrity life to a more personal and public acknowledgment of her romantic life. For Trudeau — well known globally from his political career — it’s a re-introduction of sorts, now framed through a personal relationship rather than official politics. The contrast between their worlds (music, celebrity, politics) and the ease with which they blended them during this visit has stirred conversation about celebrity diplomacy, media spectacles, and what “public relationships” mean in the modern digital age.
