‘It's over': Why Katy Perry, Orlando Bloom are on the rocks
Tensions around Katy Perry's latest tour are being blamed for a rumoured split between the pop superstar and her movie-star fiancé Orlando Bloom.
Days after the Californian diva had a security scare when an audience member charged the stage at her sold-out The Lifetimes tour Qudos Bank Arena show in Sydney, news has surfaced that the A-list couple's relationship may be on the rocks.
Ms Perry was left visibly shaken when the fan jumped onto the stage and draped his arm around her as security scrambled to take him down.
Although rattled by the intruder, the singer soldiered on and continued to belt out her popular 2008 hit 'Hot N Cold.'
'There's never going to be another show like this, so just enjoy it, Sydney,' she said.
'What the hell is going on?' Ms Perry announced to the crowd as security dragged the man from the stage. A Katy Perry fan by the name of Kyle was part of a mid-concert prank by Katy Perry. She accused him of DM-ing her husband Orlando Bloom Credit: Tiktok.
The current 15-show tour of Australia and the lukewarm reception for her new album '143' have reportedly added to rising stress levels between Perry and her husband, according to People — as the singer continues her stay in the Harbour City.
'It's over,' one source told Page Six. 'They are waiting till her tour is over before they split.'
'Katy was deeply frustrated following the reception of her new album. It made her very stressed. Orlando was understanding, but it did cause some tension.'
After previous relationship counselling, the pop star spoke out in 2024 about their issues and patches where they have needed a break from each other.

'Orlando and I, when we argue, we argue kinda hot and fast and then cool really quickly. It's like, 'La la la la la, I love you. Alright, let's move on.''
She also mentioned the impact that their domestic blow-ups had on their four-year-old daughter Daisy.
'We are fire, fire, fire, and so [Daisy] sees all of that,' Ms Perry said.
'He's a real sage. We both have parts of ourselves. There's two parts of us, our highest good, and then our carnal, material self. Ego. When the ego is running the show, then it's like, 'Whoa.' But when that's in check, then we're both something else.''
Mr Bloom, who is in New York for the Tribeca Film Festival, has spoken previously about the challenging moments in their partnership.
'Sometimes things are really, really, really, challenging. I won't lie. We definitely battle with our emotions and creativity.'

Will Smith rocked London with a surprise street performance
Will Smith electrified London with a surprise street performance on Wednesday (11.06.25) evening. Crowds flocked to the impromptu show outside of the city's King's Cross Station, where the 56-year-old star teamed up with DJ AG for a live rendition of his and Jazzy Jeff's hit Summertime - which was released in 1991 under Will's Fresh Prince alias - and the theme from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Those lucky enough to catch a glimpse of Will's surprise set shared their videos on social media, delighting even more fans. One person said on Instagram: "Legendary moment." A TikTok user wrote: "This is so nice to see, DJ AG you've come a LONG WAY!! Big up Will Smith and DJ AG every time." Another person on the video-based platform penned: "Wow, Will Smith this is incredible. This is amazing. I'm so jealous." Special guest Rita Ora suddenly rocked up and displayed some dance moves as Will and DJ AG got the crowd dancing and singing. And after Will was whisked away in a car, Rita performed some of her hit tracks, including Hot Right Now and R.I.P. Singer Jamelia hyped up the vast crowds before Will's surprise performance at 6pm. She sang her much-loved track Superstar, as well as her popular song Thank You. Will's appearance comes as he prepared to reunite with DJ Jazzy Jeff to play at Capital's Summertime Ball with Barclaycard at Wembley Stadium on Sunday (15.06.25). The star never did headline shows when he was part of hip-hop duo DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince, who were responsible for creating hits including Boom! Shake the Room and Summertime. Will recently released his first full-length album in 20 years, Based on a True Story, and he is thrilled to be going on a global tour to support his new LP, as well as treat audiences with nostalgic hits. Appearing on the Broken Record Podcast, the star said: "This will be the first time ever that we put together a tour, and I get to headline a world tour. "I have my 90 minutes, I had never been on stage for 90 minutes before. "So I did two shows in San Diego a couple of months ago, it was wild. "The world is so desperate for nostalgia right now. "The world wants that so bad, and it's like people [are] just yearning for, you know, a time when things were a little bit easier."

Michelle Monaghan 'craved' return to The White Lotus hairstyle
Michelle Monaghan has been "craving" a return to her White Lotus hairstyle. The 49-year-old actress - who played TV actress Jaclyn Lemon in the third season of HBO's anthology series - loving going blonde for the show and matching her co-stars Carrie Coon (Laurie Duffy) and Leslie Bibb (Kate Bohr), although she had to go back to brunette after filming due to other commitments. However, she told PEOPLE magazine: "I'm craving that change again and that transformation. I just wanted to be lighter and brighter for this summer. "I'm really excited to shed the brunette once again and get to play around with being blonde." Michelle doesn't necessarily want to match Jacyln's look, and she's keen to find a balance between that and her usual style. She added: "I don't think we'll be as blonde as Jaclyn, but I think we'll be somewhere in between." She'll be getting some help from Goldwell colourist Kirby Lago, who thinks a "buttery, warm" vibe is best. Kirby told the outlet: "I'm creating a really soft hazel base and then really popping it with some buttery warm blonde tones. It'll be really nice on her skin tone." She explained that she's using a range of Goldwell products to help, including the "really luxurious" SilkLift range, and both the Bond Pro and Bond Pro II. She added: "That's the thing with blondes now, hair needs to look glossy and healthy. Gone are the days of really over-processed blondes that are a matte porous texture. "It's really important that the hairstylists are taking the steps to nourish and look after the hair as it's lifting. "Now all of a sudden it's, 'Wow, I can go this blonde and it can feel soft and touchable and shiny and I don't need to put [extensions] in. That's a win-win for everybody." Meanwhile, Michelle was surprise by the way the trio's blonde looks caught on with The White Lotus fans. She said: "[Show creator] Mike [White] was like, 'I really want all of you to be a big blonde blob.' "Which is why he wanted me to go blonde. We had no idea that the blonde, [Leslie's] bob, all of the things would take hold in the way that they did."

The Running Man remake could improve on the original, Arnold Schwarzenegger says
Arnold Schwarzenegger thinks The Running Man remake could be better than the original movie. The 77-year-old actor starred as Ben Richards in the 1987 thriller based on author Stephen King's 1982 novel of the same name, though Schwarzenegger believes director Edgar Wright's new take on The Running Man - which will star Glen Powell as the protagonist - has a chance of improving on the first film. Speaking to CBR, The Terminator star said: 'I mean, I love the idea that they're doing a sequel to Running Man, or a remake. 'I don't know what it's going to be, but I mean, because I always felt when we did, Running Man was one of the movies that it did, that it felt like, I think it would have been great if we would have been better prepared for this movie, if we would have had more money for this movie, and if we would have had then ... the visual effects, the technology of visual effects, that they have today, all of those things I wished after the movie came out, I felt like it could have been better. 'It was great, but it could have been better, and I think that they have a good chance now with the new Running Man to make it better. And I hope, for their sake and for my sake, I hope that they will be successful.' The Running Man is set in a dystopian future where the poor are hunted for sport on live TV, and sees desperate contestant Ben Richards enter The Running Man game to earn money for his sick daughter. However, as the odds stack against him, Ben discovers survival means turning the game against its creators. Previously, Powell revealed Schwarzenegger gave him his blessing to play Ben Richards in Wright's upcoming remake of The Running Man - which is slated to hit cinemas in November 2025. The Top Gun: Maverick star told People: 'Arnold gave us his blessing. Patrick Schwarzenegger is a great friend of mine and I asked Patrick if I could talk to Arnold and I hadn't seen Arnold since we shot Expendables in Bulgaria. 'Arnold gave us his full blessing and we get to give Arnold a very specific fun gift from the movie in a couple of weeks here. So I'm very excited to see him.' Director Wright has also teased his take on The Running Man will be a more faithful adaptation of King's novel than the 1987 movie was. Talking about the first Running Man flick on the Happy Sad Confused podcast, the Baby Driver director said: 'I like the film, but I like the book more, and they didn't really adapt the book. 'Even as a teenager, when I saw the Schwarzenegger film, I was like, 'Oh, this isn't like the book at all!' And I think, 'Nobody's [done] that book'. 'So when that came up, I was thinking, and [producer] Simon Kinberg says, 'Do you have any interest in The Running Man?' I said, 'You know what? I've often thought that that book is something crying out to be adapted'. Now, that doesn't mean that it's easy!'
