Katy Perry's Downcast Appearance Fuels Rumors of 'Tension' with Orlando Bloom
Katy Perry's Sky-High Drama: Singer Spotted in Sydney, Fiancé Orlando Bloom on Other Side of World Amid Relationship Tension
TheScholarlyNote.com has exclusively obtained images of pop superstar Katy Perry, 40, looking downcast and somber while spending time with her four-year-old daughter Daisy at Luna Park in Sydney, Australia. The sighting comes as rumors swirl that the singer's struggling album, 143, has caused "tension" in her relationship with fiancé Orlando Bloom, 48.
Perry was spotted wearing a bear onesie, complete with round, floppy ears, paired with gray-and-orange trainers and a black Balenciaga hip bag. Her daughter Daisy, dressed in a mini version of the same costume, accompanied her mother to the amusement park.
Meanwhile, Bloom seemed to be having the time of his life at the Tribeca Festival in New York City, where he posed on the red carpet with their adorable Teacup Poodle Biggle Smalls. The Lord of the Rings star made humorous kissing faces at the miniature pooch as he struck a pose.
The SchollyNote has learned that Perry's poorly performing album, 143, has caused stress and tension in her relationship with Bloom. Sources close to the couple reveal that Perry was "deeply frustrated" by the negative reception of her new record, which critics described as sounding "generated through AI."
"It made her very stressed," a source told TheScholarlyNote.com. "Orlando was understanding, but it did cause some tension." Another insider shared, "She was also disappointed in some of the tour reviews. It's put stress on their relationship."
Perry is currently on her Lifetimes world tour, which has faced numerous setbacks, including delayed starts and canceled dates. The singer's decision to work with her old music producer Dr. Luke, who settled his longstanding sexual harassment lawsuit with Kesha last year, has also been met with criticism.
The SchollyNote has learned that Perry's album 143 references the expression "I love you," but is also a symbolic "angel number" for the singer. The album marks Perry's first release in four years, following her 2020 album Smile.
As Perry navigates the fallout from her album and tour, she has also faced backlash over her space tourist trip on Blue Origin's New Shepard NS-31 mission. During the flight, Perry held a daisy in hand, only to be ridiculed upon landing back to Earth.
"It's not about singing my songs," Perry said in a post-flight interview. "It's about making space for future women and taking up space and belonging."
The SchollyNote has been told that Perry's antics have left her as the "most hated person on the internet." However, during her recent show at Chicago's United Center, the singer addressed the criticism, saying, "I think that's false."
Perry's tour is set to continue with a stop in Denver on July 10. In the meantime, fans are eagerly awaiting word on whether the couple will be able to put aside their differences and work through the challenges they face.
