Did Justin Trudeau Just Break His Silence on Katy Perry Romance ?

Is Justin Trudeau feeling inspired by Katy Perry this Halloween?

The former Canadian prime minister, 53, had a very telling costume choice for the spooky holiday — a shark costume. As football fans and Katy cats alike remember, the pop star had dancers in shark costumes join her for her 2015 Super Bowl XLIX Halftime Show performance, which went viral thanks to dancing from Bryan Gaw, famously known as ‘Left Shark.’

While Perry, 41, wasn’t seen in his festive holiday photos, Trudeau showed off his shark costume in a series of Instagram pictures alongside his son Hadrien.

Trudeau shares children Hadrien, 11, Ella-Grace, 16, and Xavier, 18, with his estranged wife, Sophie Grégoire Trudeau.

To show off his costume, Trudeau posed for a photo with his arm wrapped around his son, who was making a silly face. Hadrien wore an all black look for his costume, but had fake blood all around the side of his face.

Adding extra details to the costume was a surfboard with fake blood splatter and a piece cut out of it. Two other photos included in the post showed that the father-son duo actually made the costume.

“Ready for Halloween with Hadrien: he’s the surfer, I’m the shark (to his left). We built the costume together — a little father-son Halloween teamwork. 🎃🦈🏄‍♂️,” Trudeau captioned his post.

While Trudeau could have been dressed as any old shark, fans couldn’t help but draw comparisons to Perry’s 2015 Super Bowl halftime performance. Trudeau’s costume had the same neon blue shade as the costumes Perry’s dancers wore.

“I’ll dress up as Katy Perry and then you and I can pretend to be together!,” one person wrote. “TO HIS LEFT 👏👏👏,” another person commented, referring to Bryan Gaw, famously known as ‘Left Shark’ in Perry’s halftime show performance.

Perry and Trudeau had their first public date at Le Violon in Montreal in July 2025. They made their first public appearance as a couple earlier this month when they attended a cabaret show at the Crazy Horse Paris to mark the “Dark Horse” musician’s birthday, according to TMZ.

“They both have busy schedules but make time for each other and have a really strong connection,” a source told PEOPLE in October. “Katy didn’t expect to fall for somebody so soon, but Justin checks all the boxes. He has a great sense of humor, he’s charming and treats her with respect.”
