Katy Perry struggles to keep ‘composure' performing breakup song after Orlando Bloom split
Katy Perry attempted to keep her 'composure' while performing a breakup ballad during her Inglewood, Calif., concert Tuesday.
The Grammy nominee, 40, usually lets her fans choose a song for her to sing each concert. However, this time, she questioned those who voted for her to sing 'Not Like the Movies' at the Kia Forum, according to People.
'You're gonna make me sing this song in this time in my life?' she asked, referencing her and ex-fiancé Orlando Bloom's recent split.
Perry said, 'OK, we'll do it! Because you voted for it. … I'm gonna try not to cry. Don't worry. I won't cry.'
The singer told her fans that the 2010 release dated back to her 'first divorce' from ex-husband Russell Brand.
The former couple ended their marriage in 2011 after just one year.
Perry told fans, who also voted for her to perform 'The One That Got Away,' that she would 'try and hold [her] composure while sing[ing] it a week before [her] period.'
Earlier this month, news broke of the songwriter and Bloom, 48, calling it quits while she was on her still-running 'Lifetimes' tour.
However, their relationship was long done as Page Six reported in June that the duo was 'over.'
Perry and the 'Lord of the Rings' star have been together on and off since 2016 and share a 4-year-old daughter named Daisy.
They called the little one their main 'focus' while confirming their breakup via their reps earlier this month.
'They will continue to be seen together as a family, as their shared priority is — and always will be — raising their daughter with love, stability and mutual respect,' the joint statement read.
Perry and Bloom have since shown off their amicable co-parenting dynamic, going on vacation together in Italy last week.
The 'Pirates of the Caribbean' star even included a cozy family photo in a recent Instagram dump, which also included his and ex-wife Miranda Kerr's 14-year-old son, Flynn.

Diddy's Ex-Girlfriend Asks The Judge To Release Him Ahead Of Sentencing
An ex-girlfriend of Sean 'Diddy' Combs is urging the judge to release the music mogul on bail while he awaits his October sentencing. Virginia Huynh, who identified herself as Victim 3 in the federal government's indictment against Combs, wrote in a letter submitted to the judge this weekend that she has known the artist for many years in both a personal and professional capacity. She wrote that while their relationship had many ups and downs, Combs always tried to become a better person. 'By the time our relationship ended, he embodied an energy of love, patience and gentleness that was markedly different from his past behavior,' she wrote. 'To my knowledge, he has not been violent for many years, and he has been committed to being a father first.' Combs was acquitted last month of racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking charges, but he was found guilty of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution. Last week, Combs' attorneys filed a motion asking the judge to release him on $50 million bond before his October sentencing hearing. Combs has been in Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Center since his September arrest and has been denied release multiple times. Huynh's letter asks the judge to consider letting Combs out on bond until October. She wrote that she does not view Combs as a danger to her or the community, and said he should be released because he has children who depend on him for financial and emotional support. 'I want to assure the Court that if released, I believe Mr. Combs will adhere to all conditions imposed and will not jeopardize his freedom or the well-being of his family,' Huynh wrote. In the indictment against Combs, prosecutors said Combs used his 'power and prestige' to intimidate and threaten women, often while he was in a romantic relationship with them. 'On multiple occasions, Combs threw both objects and people, as well as hit, dragged, choked and shoved others,' the indictment read. 'On one occasion, Combs dangled a victim over an apartment balcony.' Huynh did not testify in the trial against Combs. Combs' ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura did, however, telling the court that Combs forced her to participate in sex marathons known as 'freak-offs.' Related...

‘KPop Demon Hunters' Makes Chart History As ‘Golden' Hits No. 1
Hunter/X's 'Golden' has been gaining momentum since its debut several weeks ago, and this time around, the fictional girl group – created for Netflix's hugely-popular movie KPop Demon Hunters – reaches a new historic high on one of Billboard's most competitive charts. As the beloved cut ascends, it helps the made-up band manage a feat that's never been seen in America. 'Golden' Becomes Hunter/X's First No. 1 'Golden' rises from No. 2 to No. 1 on the Streaming Songs chart this time around. As it climbs, Hunter/X manages a historic feat, as no girl group — real or fictional — has previously reached the summit on the list of the most-streamed tracks in the country. Hunter/X Joins a Small List of K-Pop Leaders 'Golden' is the group's second top 10 on the Streaming Songs tally. Recently, as 'Golden' began to surge, 'How It's Done' peaked at No. 6. Among K-pop outfits, Hunter/X joins an elite roster with a top 10 streaming smash. Blackpink has sent three tracks into the top 10, while Fifty Fifty has also reached the region. Looking at all K-pop artists, Hunter/X is only the second to rule the Streaming Songs list, following Psy. He sent both 'Gentleman' and 'Gangnam Style' to No. 1 more than a decade ago. Hunter/X Also Rules Several Global Rankings The success of 'Golden' isn't limited to streaming, or to the U.S. The cut rises from No. 4 to No. 2 on the Hot 100, a new personal best for the group on the most competitive songs list. It also rebounds to No. 1 on both the Billboard Global 200 and the Billboard Global Excl. U.S., reclaiming the throne on each for a second stint and reigning as the biggest smash in the world. Hunter/X Scores a Rare Radio Hit Hunter/X is so popular that its success extends beyond streaming platforms and digital download storefronts. 'Golden' debuts at No. 35 on the Pop Airplay chart this week, marking the group's first appearance on a radio-focused Billboard tally. The showing suggests that the tune is beginning to connect with a broader U.S. audience outside of its core fan base, and that it's receiving some serious promotion.
