Fans absolutely lost it after Katy Perry was spotted packing on the PDA with former Canadian PM Justin Trudeau during a sunny yacht outing.
The internet gasped as the pair’s romance seemed to be heating up. Many even wondered if they were doing it for the money and publicity.
“They’re both very good at faking it, which is why they make a great couple!” one said.
The internet couldn’t keep calm after Katy Perry’s PDA-fueled moment with Justin Trudeau
Pictures of Justin and Katy’s PDA-fueled moment went viral over the weekend.
As they rode the waves off Santa Barbara, Justin was seen planting a kiss on the singer’s cheek and wrapping his arms around her waist.
At one point, Justin placed his hand on the singer’s lower back. And they even kissed, seemingly oblivious to the eagle-eyed tourist who took the photos in September.

“She pulled up her boat next to a small public whale-watching boat, then they started making out,” a witness told the Daily Mail.
“I didn’t realize who she was with until I saw the tattoo on the guy’s arm, and I immediately realized it was Justin Trudeau,” they added.

After going public with their romance, the pair have been “constantly in contact,” sources said.
One source told The Sun that they have been secretly dating since the beginning of summer this year.
“They haven’t been able to spend a lot of time together as she’s on tour, but they’re constantly in contact, always FaceTiming and messaging each other,” a source told the outlet this week.

Justin saw the Firework singer as someone out of his league, according to the source.
“He’s a bit of a geek and can’t believe someone as famous and glamorous as Katy is interested in him, whereas she’s flattered such a respected politician wants to date her,” the source was quoted as saying.
“What on earth could they have in common?” one asked online

Fans had mixed reactions to the PDA-filled moment, with some baffled over “the concept of Justin Trudeau being Katy Perry’s rebound.”
“Both are doing this for $ and publicity, and you’re giving them what they want,” one claimed. “It’s not a real relationship.”
“I don’t like this,” said another. “He is literally unemployed and OLD ASF. Katy we will set u up with a better man once u leave him.”
“A lifetime of bad decisions,” read one comment, while another simply said, “Gross”
The Roar singer is currently on her Lifetimes global tour and will perform in London’s O2 Arena this week.
She and her former fiancé, Orlando Bloom, called it quits in June this year.
They were together for about nine years and share a daughter, Daisy Dove, 5.

“They will continue to be seen together as a family, as their shared priority is, and always will be, raising their daughter with love, stability, and mutual respect,” read a statement that confirmed their breakup.
A source told People that the former couple was “suffering through the same problems that have plagued them for years.”

They had a lot going on in their lives, which made it hard for them to find time and “iron out disagreements,” the source said.
“When they don’t communicate properly, their relationship dips to a low level,” they added.
Orlando broke his silence on the breakup during a conversation with Today‘s Craig Melvin in September.
“I’m great, man. I’m so grateful,” he said. “We have the most beautiful daughter. You know when you leave everything on the field like I did in this movie? I feel grateful for all of it.”
“And we’re great. We’re going to be great. Nothing but love,” he added.
