Justin Trudeau Spotted Front Row at Katy Perry Concert After Date

Justin Trudeau Spotted Front Row at Katy Perry Concert After Date

Cosmopolitan3 days ago
Looks like things are...escalating between Justin Trudeau and Katy Perry. And by that I mean they just went Lifetimes Tour Official (a huge step in any relationship).
The former Canadian Prime Minister was spotted grinning from ear-to-ear in the front row of Katy's concert last night—an appearance that comes mere days after their viral date night.
So, what's going on with these two? While there was initially some speculation that they were simply having a business meeting when they were seen dining together in Montreal, sources have since spoken to The Sun and confirmed that the vibe is faaaaaaar from platonic.
"Justin always enjoys nice company, and Katy is the kind of woman that really caught his attention," one insider said. "Justin has been single for a while and has enjoyed getting to know her. He likes her personality, and they are two people who really enjoy chatting about different topics, and they click very well so far, as they are going to see each other again very soon."
"Whatever happens, happens," they added. "He is a single man, so is on the market and ready to start something new with a woman after a few rough moments after splitting from his wife. He is feeling that talking to her and getting to know her is very refreshing, like a breath of fresh air in his life. He was happy to connect with her so well, and that she appreciates him being a normal, respectful person who was very understanding of her recent separation with Orlando Bloom. He isn't the kind of guy that would rush things, and she seems to enjoy that a lot. It's a gentlemanly way to behave."
Apparently, the pair plan to hang out again soon, so...stay tuned.

Camper's ‘repeated cries' spark rescue mission — but he was singing songs by infamous rock band

He just wanted to be a big rock star. Rescue teams in British Columbia responded to what they thought was a camper in distress, but the screams they heard in the mountainous forest turned out to be an outdoorsman belting out his favorite Nickelback songs. The man had been solo camping the Boulderfields near Central Okanagan, a popular destination for bikers and rock climbers in the province, when two hikers called 911 after hearing what they described as 'repeated cries.' Central Okanagan Search & Rescue Members of the Central Okanagan Search and Rescue crew happened to be out in the woods training nearby when the calls came in, and immediately started looking for the imperiled nature lover, deploying their drone team and enlisting two Royal Canadian Mounted Police to assist in the effort. As the search teams neared the sound of the bleating echoing through the darkened woodlands, they heard 'faint yelling … but couldn't make out what was being said,' they described in a statement online. 'Was it 'help'? Or worse, Nickelback?' the snarky post read. Turns out the camper was 'singing his heart out to the trees, blissfully unaware that the acoustics of the Boulderfields had turned his tent-side concert into an accidental distress signal,' the teams wrote. 'He wasn't in trouble,' said COSAR Search Manager Duane Tresnich. 'Unless you count his singing.' COSAR noted that its rescue services are provided free of charge, adding, 'and the money you save could be spent on singing lessons.' AFP via Getty Images Nickelback, the much-maligned Canadian alt-rock group that got its start in Alberta, is known not only for selling over 50 million albums worldwide, but also as something of a pop-culture punchline. The band even made a documentary in 2023, 'Hate to Love: Nickelback' about spending two decades as the 'most hated band in the world,' despite their mega-success by any objective measure, with eight songs hitting Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart including 'How You Remind Me' and 'Photograph.'

Orlando Bloom Reacts To Katy Perry And Justin Trudeau

Orlando Bloom reacted to a post trolling Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau amid rumors they're dating. The two made headlines last week when they were seen dining at a restaurant in Montreal, followed by Justin's appearance at the Montreal stop of Katy's Lifetimes tour. A source subsequently told People that "they are interested in each other" — however, "it will take a while to see where this goes." "She is traveling around the world, and he is figuring out his life now that he is no longer prime minister of Canada," the source said, "but there is an attraction. They have a lot in common." Among their shared interests are "music" and being "idealists" seeking to make "improvements" to the world. "[The] timing seems good for them," the source added, although they clarified "a romance is in very early stages." Well, amid the rumors, the Onion poked fun at Katy and Justin by joking that Orlando had struck up his own romance with another politician — namely, former German Chancellor Angela Merkel. In an Instagram post containing a digitally-made photo of Orlando and Angela seated together, the outlet wrote, "Just weeks after announcing his split from fiancée Katy Perry, English actor Orlando Bloom was photographed Friday dining with former German Chancellor Angela Merkel. 'Angela kept Orlando laughing all night—he couldn't keep his eyes off her!' said an insider source who spotted the pair sipping wine, slurping oysters, and splitting a decadent piece of chocolate layer cake at a Michelin-starred restaurant." Orlando, who split from Katy in June after nine years and one child together, took to the comments to react, sharing a series of handclap emojis. It's no surprise to see Orlando joking around, as he's said to have a friendly relationship with Katy in the wake of their split. According to a source, it was especially important for them to remain cordial so they could be around their daughter, Daisy, 4, "separately or together." "Katy has every intention of maintaining a positive and respectful relationship with Orlando," one source said. "He's the father of their daughter and that will always come first for her." The source added, "They've been through a lot together and while they've decided to go their separate ways, there's still a mutual respect between them. They're still very much in touch and co-parenting Daisy together. For the sake of their daughter, they're committed to keeping things amicable." Honestly, good for them, and shout out to Orlando for being a good sport! Let me know your thoughts in the comments.

Canada fixed its air traffic control decades ago. Why can't America?

Some of these tragedies and alarming incidents are Get The Gavel A weekly SCOTUS explainer newsletter by columnist Kimberly Atkins Stohr. Enter Email Sign Up There is no mystery about what ails air traffic control in this country: It is run by the government, which is ill-suited to the task. Worse yet, the agency that's in charge of providing air traffic control, the Federal Aviation Administration, is also the agency that regulates it — an inherent conflict of interest. As journalist John Tierney put it in Advertisement That's only part of the problem. Because the FAA is an arm of the government, its operations, including air traffic control, are inevitably politicized. Since the agency has to be reauthorized annually, its funding is tied not to market forces but to the priorities of politicians, lobbyists, and interest groups. That chronic Happily, there is a straightforward solution: Get the federal government out of the air traffic control business. 'Countless studies have shown that other countries' ATC systems are better-managed, better-funded, and better-supplied with advanced technology,' Robert Poole, the Reason Foundation's director of transportation policy, Advertisement Not much has changed since Our neighbor to the north long ago made the leap to nongovernmental air traffic control. In 1996, Canada created Nav Canada, a not-for-profit corporation that is fully funded by users of the system — that is, airlines and other aircraft operators — and thus doesn't cost taxpayers a cent. The results have been almost uniformly positive. Nav Canada funds its own modernization and operates on a solid financial footing. The company has Canada boasts state-of-the-art satellite navigation systems. Almost 10 years ago, The Wall Street Journal's aviation columnist, Scott McCartney, In Canadian ATC towers, there are no strips of paper to shuffle. Instead, controllers update information about each flight on touch screens and pass the information to one another electronically. 'Requests for altitude changes are automatically checked for conflicts before they even pop up on controllers' screens,' McCartney wrote. 'Computers look 20 minutes ahead for any planes potentially getting too close to each other. Flights are monitored by a system more accurate than radar, allowing them to be safely spaced closer together to add capacity and reduce delays.' Advertisement The FAA, meanwhile, has been working on upgrading its technology for more than 20 years, but its efforts, as the trade group Airlines for America America's antiquated air traffic control system is both embarrassing and unnecessary. The wheel doesn't need to be reinvented. In 2017, legislation to privatize ATC operations along the lines of the Canadian model This would be a fine time to revive that legislation. Is it naive to imagine that fixing air traffic control is one way to 'make America great again' that doesn't have to involve polarizing rhetoric or angry culture wars? The formula is clear: Carve air traffic control out of the FAA, move it to an independent, user-funded corporation, and let market needs — not politics — dictate priorities. Under such a 'separation of ATC and state,' safety oversight would remain with the FAA, but the era of paper strips and floppy disks would finally end. Advertisement Jeff Jacoby can be reached at
