Make Page Six a Preferred Source Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau stepped out to a charity gala after the pop star’s ex-husband, Russell Brand, was sentenced for rape and sexual assault.
The “Teenage Dream” songstress and the former Canadian prime minister beamed on the Baby2Baby Gala red carpet in Los Angeles on Saturday night.
Perry looked chic, donning a strapless sequin dress with a neutral-colored satin skirt and a matching cape.
As for Trudeau, 54, he sported a white tuxedo jacket and black pants.
The couple looked head over heels for each other, especially as Perry, 42, helped the politician fix his bow tie during one intimate moment.
Trudeau and Perry were also photographed in good spirits while leaving the Italian eatery E. Baldi in Beverly Hills, California, on Wednesday night.
The duo has been dating since last summer, following the “Roar” singer’s separation from her ex-fiancé Orlando Bloom. Perry and Bloom had been together since 2016 and share a daughter, Daisy Dove, 6.
Perry and Brand’s relationship, meanwhile, sparked in 2009 after they met on the set of the latter’s 2010 movie “Get Him to the Greek.”
The exes tied the knot in 2010, and Brand filed for divorce the following year after splitting with Perry via a text message.

The “Dark Horse” singer has since detailed Brand’s “controlling” behavior, including in a 2013 interview with Vogue.
“At first when I met him he wanted an equal, and I think a lot of times strong men do want an equal, but then they get that equal and they’re like, I can’t handle the equalness,” she explained.
Perry wasn’t mentioned in Brand’s nearly four-week trial for rape and sexual assault after the actor’s legal team reportedly forbade prosecutors from mentioning their past romance.
Brand was sentenced to more than 10 years in prison for rape and sexual assault of four women on Nov. 9.
The “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” star, who remarried Laura Brand in 2017 and welcomed three kids, has denied any wrongdoing.
