Russell Brand Criticizes Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau’s Relationship

Russell Brand he is not a fan of his ex-wife Katy Perry started dating the former prime minister of Canada Justin Trudeau.

Speaking at the Turning Point USA event in Phoenix on Thursday, December 18, Brand, 50, took a swipe at his current partner.

“Look, Katy Perry, I was married to him. “I was fine Orlando Bloom, but Justin Trudeau? Come on man! Don’t put me in the category with that guy! That’s a globalist player.”

Although not a fan of Trudeau, 53, Brand had a very positive assessment of Perry’s parents, noting that they were in the audience for the event.

“My ex-wife’s parents are there, they are Christians and I love them, I love them Mary Perry,” Brand said on stage. “God bless you, thank you for bringing me the message.”

Brand and Perry, 41, were married from 2010 until late 2011, when the “Roar” singer learned her marriage was over via text message while on tour.

Perry addressed this split in an interview with Vogue in June 2013, she told the newspaper at the time, “He is a very intelligent man, and I was in love with him when I married him. [But] let me say that I have not heard anything from him since he sent me a message saying that he is divorcing me on December 31, 2011.”

Earlier this year, the I forgot Sarah Marshall star opened up about the breakdown of their marriage during an episode of her podcast, “Stay Free with Russell Brand”

“What I can tell you is, when I got married to Katy Perry, she’s like, she’s very unusual, because she’s an unusual, huge star — but she’s not weird or mainstream,” Brand said on a podcast in April. “And I wasn’t involved in anything bad, as far as I can tell.”

He went on to say, “The reasons why a marriage doesn’t work are common reasons for people [why] marriages don’t work, and I have nothing but respect for him.”

After her split from Brand, Perry later moved on with Bloom, 48, with whom she shares five-year-old daughter Daisy. Meanwhile, Brand got married Laura Gallacher in 2017.

Bloom and Perry finally split earlier this year, with news of their split after ten years making headlines in June.

The “Firework” singer was then linked to Trudeau over the summer before confirming their romance via an “Instagram official” in December.

While visiting Japan on his Lifetime Tour, the singer posted a series of photos on his Instagram on December 6, which showed him enjoying his time off from politics.

“Tokyo moments on tour and more,” she captioned a carousel of photos and videos, including a photo of the couple having fun taking a selfie. Another clip showed the couple enjoying a sushi dinner date together.

The couple also took pictures together during a meeting with the former Prime Minister of Japan Fumio Kishida. The photo was posted on Instagram on December 4, marking the pair’s first public appearance.

“Former Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau came to Japan with his partner Katy Perry and had lunch with us,” Kishida, 68, wrote on Instagram on December 4. “During my time as Prime Minister, I met with the Prime Minister many times, and when I visited Canada, we worked together to strengthen bilateral relations, including establishing the ‘Nikka Action Plan.’ I’m glad we’re continuing this friendship.”

He continued, “Canada is a very important partner for Japan in all aspects of politics, security, economy, culture, etc. We will continue to work hard for friendship and cooperation between Japan and Canada.”
