‘Womaniser': Katy Perry's pals fear new romance with Justin Trudeau
After being spotted together recently at dinner, things have reportedly been heating up between Perry and her new love interest, former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
While Perry appears to be enjoying getting to know Trudeau, an insider has revealed that her close pals are concerned about the speed at which their romance appears to be moving, especially so soon after her break-up.
'Katy's friends want her to have fun after her split from Orlando, but she's still very much grieving the end of their relationship and the fact that she never made it down the aisle,' an insider told The U.S. Sun.
'They don't want her to rush into something serious, and have heard Justin has a bit of a reputation as a womaniser, and that he loves the fame game.
'It is still a very new flirty friendship, but friends are hoping she takes it slow with the next person and chooses a man who loves her for her.'
A second source also previously said: 'They have been wanting to have dinner for a while now, and he asked her if they could do it in Montreal, and she agreed to do so very quickly.
'He isn't shy about his romantic life, and he took her on a date, and he was very, very excited to do so, and kept talking about it in the last few days.
'Justin isn't a guy who is easy to 'catch' and he has been having a lot of women trying to date him since he separated from his wife.
'He is someone that has some particular preferences, and he enjoys people who are genuinely nice and that see life in their own way.
'Katy has her own 'world' and she is someone who is an extrovert, and she loves to talk about many different topics, and he really loves that.'
The insider added that he is 'not scared of her being a superstar' as he is used to the spotlight.
Meanwhile, the former politician appeared completely smitten as he looked up at Perry with a big smile spread across his face when he went to her concert earlier this week, accompanied by his teenage daughter.

Former Secret Service director who quit after Trump shooting now denied security clearance
Former Secret Service director Kimberly Cheatle — under fire over the Pennsylvania assassination attempt against US President Donald Trump — won't have her top-level security clearance renewed. New York Post reported the Secret Service decided not to extend Ms Cheatle's clearance after opposition from Republicans in Congress, namely Senator Ron Johnson. 'Director [Sean] Curran has been modernising the intelligence apparatus within the agency,' a spokesperson told The Post. 'During that process, he has determined that not all former directors will have their clearances renewed.' The decision to end Ms Cheatle's security clearance came after RealClearPolitics inquired about Mr Johnson's opposition to renewal, claimed the outlet, which was the first to report the change. Mr Johnson, who helms the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, had probed the Secret Service's failures leading up to the Trump assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. He had been fiercely critical of Ms Cheatle, who led the agency from 2022 to 2024, before resigning about 10 days after a bullet grazed the president's right ear during a rally in July of last year. 'The U.S. Secret Service sponsors security clearances for all the former directors for their knowledge of operational and national security matters,' a Secret Service spokesperson explained. 'The purpose for this was so the agency could maintain formal and protected communication, including potentially sensitive and classified matters with former officials.' Mr Trump later tapped Mr Curran, who previously led his detail, to helm the agency. Ms Cheatle, who was picked by former first lady Jill Biden, has taken heat for a variety of security failures leading up to the chilling attempt on Mr Trump's life. Multiple GOP-led probes into the assassination attempt cited sources who alleged Ms Cheatle's team had turned down Mr Curran's petitions for more security assets during the 2024 cycle. Last month, on the first anniversary of the July 13, 2024, assassination attempt, Republican Senator Rand Paul accused her of lying to Congress when she denied accusations she turned down requests for more resources for Mr Trump's security. 'Any assertion or implication that I provided misleading testimony is patently false and does a disservice to those men and women on the front lines who have been unfairly disciplined for a team, rather than individual, failure,' she fired back in a statement provided by her attorney. During his second term, Mr Trump has repeatedly moved to axe security clearances for former officials in key posts. In most cases, he's gone further than Mr Curran and outright revoked access. This includes his January executive order to revoke clearances for the infamous 'spies who lied' — the 51 intelligence officials who signed onto a letter claiming The Post 's bombshell story on Hunter Biden's laptop had the 'classic earmarks of Russian disinformation.' Despite his terrifying brush with death, Mr Trump has taken a charitable approach to the Secret Service. 'They should have had communications with the local police, they weren't tied in, and they should have been tied in. So there were mistakes made,' Mr Trump told his daughter-in-law Lara Trump on Fox News' My View last month. 'But I was satisfied in terms of the bigger plot, the larger plot, I was satisfied,' he added. 'And I have great confidence in these people. I know the people. And they're very talented, very capable. 'But they had a bad day. And I think they'll admit that. They had a rough day.' Last month, the Secret Service faced another security snafu when an agent attempted to sneak his wife onto an Air Force One jet during Mr Trump's trip to Scotland.
