Heartbreaking clip of Katy Perry crying on stage resurfaces amid rumoured Orlando Bloom break-up
Katy Perry was seen sobbing on stage in a resurfaced clip after sources confirmed her break-up with Orlando Bloom. The Dark Horse singer cried as she belted the lyrics to her song Resilient during her Lifetimes Tour concert in Mexico City in April, according to a video circulating on social media. Perry struggled to get the words out as she broke down in an emotional display. She moved the microphone away from her face so the audience couldn't hear her sobs. She quickly composed herself, holding an impressive note as the crowd erupted in cheers. Fans flooded the comments section of the post to empathise with the now-single pop star. 'I feel so bad for her, like actually. I don't like her music (especially 143) but let's emphasise with her … she's a human too,' one person commented on the post. 'I hate seeing people cry,' a second person said. 'She can't keep a man to save her life,' a troll chimed in. While the video is nearly two months old, Perry is currently on the same tour, which began in April and will run through December. Page Six reported earlier this month that Perry and Bloom's relationship was on the rocks but that they were waiting for her tour to wrap before officially breaking up. 'It's over,' our source said. 'They are waiting 'til her tour is over before they split.' On Wednesday, however, a source confirmed that Perry, 40, and Bloom, 48, had officially called things off after 10 years together. 'Katy and Orlando have split but are amicable,' a source close to the pair told Us Weekly. The insider added that their dynamic is 'not contentious at the moment.' 'Katy is of course upset but is relieved to not have to go through another divorce, as that was the worst time in her life,' the insider told the outlet. Their split has reportedly been 'a long time coming' as things were tense for the exes 'for months.' Perry's issues with Bloom apparently stemmed from her new album, 143, receiving poor reviews. 'Katy was deeply frustrated following the reception of her new album,' a source told People. 'It made her very stressed. Orlando was understanding, but it did cause some tension.' Fortunately, the Pirates of the Caribbean actor and Perry are amicably co-parenting their 4-year-old daughter Daisy. 'They are still very much in touch and co-parenting Daisy together,' an insider close to the exes told Us Weekly on Thursday, adding, 'It's not messy between them.' The Last Friday Night artist and Bloom are reportedly focused on making sure their break-up doesn't impact their daughter's day-to-day. 'They aren't making drastic changes for Daisy's sake,' the source said. 'They will keep their lives in Montecito [California]. They are prioritising stability and consistency for Daisy.' Bloom and Perry were first romantically linked in 2016 but broke up a year later. They rekindled their love and got engaged on Valentine's Day in 2019 – nearly a year before Daisy was born. The Lord of the Rings star was previously married to Miranda Kerr from 2010 to 2013 and they share 14-year-old son Flynn. Perry was married to Russell Brand from 2010 to 2012, though they share no children.

‘Poop Cruise' passenger exposes filthy truth in viral Netflix documentary
A passenger on the notorious Carnival Triumph 'poop cruise' said the upcoming Netflix documentary fails to capture the true horror of four days at sea without food, power and sanitation – 'the scariest thing I've ever been through'. The cruise from Texas to Mexico spiralled into chaos after an engine room fire triggered a massive electrical failure leaving over 4,000 passengers and crew wading through urine and faeces, and camping on deck. It's the focus of an upcoming Netflix documentary Trainwreck: Poop Cruise, set to be released on June 24. But one of the passengers, Tay Redford, 24, has watched the trailer and is 'hurt'. Now a bakery owner from Enid, Oklahoma, she was just 12 when the ship lost power, leaving passengers in darkness, surrounded by sewage, and struggling for basic necessities. She recalls the fear and chaos vividly, saying Carnival didn't offer meaningful support after the ordeal. Gripped by long-term trauma, Tay worries the documentary doesn't represent survivors' voices – and vows never to cruise again. 'I've only seen the trailer, but from what I saw, it doesn't even scratch the surface,' she said. 'It's just Carnival workers telling the story.' She added: 'It's really hard watching the documentary come out and seeing all these people making money from it. 'To me, it feels like they're profiting off something that deeply affected and traumatised me.' On February 10, 2013, a fire ignited in the Carnival Triumph's aft engine room off the coast of Mexico after a flexible fuel oil return line failed, spraying fuel onto a hot surface and severely damaging the ship's generators. This knocked out all main power and propulsion, leaving over 4,000 passengers and crew adrift in The Gulf of Mexico for four days. Sewage flooded many cabins, and basic services collapsed as the ship was eventually towed to Mobile, Alabama over several days. Tay was aboard the ship with her parents, older brother, and a group of family friends. Intended as a family vacation, the trip quickly turned into a harrowing ordeal. 'It was the most fear I've ever felt in my life,' Tay recalled. 'I'm not that old yet, but that was hands down the scariest thing I've ever been through.' The fire knocked out the ship's power, plunging the vessel into darkness and leaving passengers without basic services. Tay's family was forced to abandon their cabin due to sewage and a lack of airflow. 'My first thought is we're sinking, we're going down. That was the only thing I thought. I was crying hysterically, trying to follow my parents around in the dark,' she said. 'When we went down to our room, we were up to our ankles in sewage and urine and faeces, and there was no air flow. There were no lights.' The situation was chaotic and frightening, forcing the family to camp on the top deck for nearly four days. Access to food, water, and sanitation was severely limited. 'They ran out of water to give us, so they said, 'Hey, we'll open up the bar and let people drink liquor,'' she recalled. The decision reportedly backfired as frustrated, intoxicated passengers – angry over the lack of information and worsening conditions – began fighting. According to Tay, some even resorted to 'throwing their bodily fluids over the ship' as tensions escalated. 'They forced their housekeeping staff to stay in rooms infested with sewage, withheld proper meals, and made them eat out of the trash,' Tay recalled. 'Carnival called my nana and was like, 'We just wanted to let you know there was a fire on-board. There are no casualties, but your family's just on an extended vacation. Have a nice day.'' Amid the chaos, Tay's brother became a source of ingenuity. 'My brother actually had this great idea,' Tay recalled. 'He said, I'm going to build a tent out of these sheets. And he cut the sheets up and invented Tent City where everybody followed him to make tents to keep us out of the sun.' The disabled ship was slowly towed back to port in Mobile, Alabama, as passengers endured days of hardship before finally reaching land. While Carnival eventually provided a small compensation – $500 and a refund for the trip home – Tay says the company never truly addressed the trauma experienced by those on-board. 'Carnival never reached out – never,' she said. 'They gave us $500 and reimbursed my parents for the trip home, but that was it. After that, it was like nothing ever happened. No one was supposed to talk about it.' The lack of communication and support from Carnival left Tay and her family feeling abandoned. The experience left deep scars. Tay now suffers from long-term trauma and anxiety, particularly around the ocean and extreme weather. As for her own future, Tay is resolute. 'I would absolutely never go on a cruise again.'

Sergio Perez knows Red Bull ‘regret' letting him go as F1 driver looks for new home in 2026
Sergio Perez says he knows Red Bull regret the decision to part ways with him amidst rumours he could be joining a new team in 2026. The former Red Bull driver opened up recently on his departure from team, has it from 'a very good source' that 'deep down they are very sorry' for how the situation unfolded last year. Fox Sports, available on Kayo Sports, is the only place to watch every practice, qualifying session and race in the 2025 FIA Formula One World Championship™ LIVE in 4K. New to Kayo? Get your first month for just $1. Limited time offer. The Mexican joined the team in 2021 for four campaigns beside champion Max Verstappen. What started as a successful venture where Perez won five Grand Prix and was influential in helping Verstappen to titles, later turned sour. His poor form from 2023 followed Perez into last year, which left a frustrated Red Bull with the decision to let the 14-year veteran driver go. 'I mean, at the end of the day, that's how the sport is,' Perez said on the Desde el Paddock podcast. 'They made certain decisions because of the immense pressure, pressure that they themselves helped create. 'There was a lot of pressure on my side of the garage ... it was putting a lot of pressure on the engineers, on everyone involved, and I think in the end that ended up costing us a lot.' 'People might think I'm happy about it, but no ... we had a great team, and in the end it fell apart, little by little.' But the decision hasn't worked out well for Red Bull who appointed Liam Lawson as Perez's replacement. The New Zealander only lasted two races before being demoted for Racing Bulls (Red Bull's junior team) Yuki Tsunoda, who has also struggled as the team's second driver notching just seven points from eight races. It leaves the team down in fourth in points standings and more than 200 away from leaders McLaren and without a driver who can replicate Perez's ability. 'I know, deep down, they regret it [parting ways]. And I know that from a very reliable source,' Perez said. 'Still, what can you do? You move on. It's tough. I have very good friends there, and people might think I take pleasure in what happened – but not.' Perez confirmed he does have a desire to return to F1 'if the right project comes along' and that he does not want to be a team's third driver. 'I want to go back because I don't want to end my career like this,' he said. 'I'll go back if it's worth paying the price to be in F1.' 'I'm in no rush, we'll see what happens next year.' F1 star's wife flashes flesh, popstar sizzles 'I don't want to be travelling around the world as a third driver or waiting for an opportunity. I've been very fortunate with the career I've had, and I want to return because I don't want to end my career like this. Perez has been linked with a move to Cadillac, who are joining F1 as the 11th team on the grid in 2026, but has also been linked Alpine. One driver who has strongly suggested he could be taking one of Cadillac's two positions next year is fellow F1 veteran Valtteri Bottas. The former Mercedes first team driver uploaded a clip this week to social media where he comes across a Cadillac truck. 'That's actually a nice seat … I wouldn't mind,' Bottas said in the clip. 'Want to sit in it?' another asked. 'Not yet' Bottas teased.
