Famous DJ, Diplo, caused a lot of public attention after making a statement on the podcast "Smart Girl Dumb Questions", in which he said that he was in a relationship with singer Katy Perry, but also with her new partner, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

During the conversation, Diplo commented on Katy Perry's current relationship, saying: "And now Katy Perry is dating Justin," to which he added: "That's awesome."


When host Nayeema Raza mentioned Trudeau, Diplo surprised her by saying, "I've dated Trudeau too."

He stressed that he found it "strange," explaining that he is not a big fan of politicians.

Although he later explained that the whole situation was a joke, his statement caused an avalanche of reactions on social media. Although it was just a joke, Diplo was indeed linked to Katy Perry in 2014, but it was never confirmed whether they were in a real relationship.

Unlike Diplo's joke, the romance between Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau is not made up.

The singer actually confirmed her relationship with the Canadian prime minister during a performance in Prague. Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau began their relationship after Perry ended her long-term relationship with actor Orlando Bloom, with whom she has a five-year-old daughter, Daisy, earlier this year.
