Katy Perry was giving 'flirty' cues to a 'flattered' Justin Trudeau on the pair's unlikely date in Canada this week, not long after her split from Orlando Bloom. The singer, 40, and the former Canadian Prime Minister, 53, set social media ablaze when they were filmed dining together in Montreal at the city's Le Violon restaurant on Monday.
In a video obtained by the Daily Mail, the pair leaned over a table toward one another as they intimately chatted.
Body language expert Judi James has exclusively deciphered the pair's interaction for the Daily Mail and revealed, 'there are at least three non-verbal cues that we tend to associate with flirting on a date.
'First is the proximity trait: Not only are these two hidden away in what looks like an intimate table on their own, they also lean their heads in together to create further closeness here.
'On a date this is done to achieve and display undivided attention and interest and to allow the voices to drop to a softer, deeper, sexier tone.
'Then, there is Katy's trait of facial "framing": In one pic she seems to place a hand up to her ear which can highlight the face in a "look at me, I'm beautiful" way.
'But in another she has her hands cupping her face, creating a directional frame for her legendary beauty.'
James added that Perry gave Trudeau 'non-physical "stroking"' or flattery to make him feel interesting via 'nods of encouragement'.
'Smiling and nodding as someone speaks like this will suggest avid attention and agreement, leading to agreeableness,' James said.
It has been a tough few months for the unlikely duo - with Perry weathering her tough split from former fiancé Bloom and a flop album titled 143.
Perry shares one daughter, Daisy, 4, with Bloom, 48. The exes began dating in 2016 and got engaged on Valentine's Day 2019.
Split speculation swirled for months before the pair finally confirmed the end of their romance last month.
Perry - who is currently on her Lifetimes Tour - was previously married to Russell Brand from 2010 until their divorce in 2012.
Trudeau shares three children with ex wife Sophie Grégoire Trudeau, from whom he announced a split in August 2023 after 18 years of marriage.
Sophie was a childhood friend and classmate of Trudeau's older brother Michel, who died in an avalanche in 1998 at 23 years old.
Trudeau began dating his ex wife in 2003 after reconnecting as adults and were engaged a short time afterwards.
Trudeau dramatically resigned as Canadian Prime Minister in January capping a spectacular fall from grace for the liberal standard-bearer just days before Donald Trump entered office.
