Katy Perry halts concert to call out fan for messaging Orlando Bloom; threatens to remove him: ‘He don't want you'

Katy Perry left fans stunned during her Saturday night concert at the T-Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada, when she suddenly broke character mid-performance to address a fan directly from the stage. The packed crowd erupted as the pop icon paused her Lifetimes Tour set, crouched down dramatically, and stared pointedly at one audience member.
'I know why you're here,' she said, locking eyes with a fan named Kyle, who has been allegedly texting actor Orlando Bloom, Perry's partner. 'Listen, if you keep DM-ing my man … you've been doing it for months, ever since the residency. You didn't come to see me play.'
The crowd roared with laughter and cheers as Perry said, 'If you keep on DM-ing my man I'm going to have you removed – seriously, get your own life.'
She didn't stop there. In a moment that has now gone viral online, she delivered a fierce message: 'He don't want you, Kyle. I'm his wife. I'm his, he's mine … stay the f**k away.'

But what seemed like a raw, unscripted confrontation turned out to be part of the act. Perry used the moment to segue seamlessly into her next track, I'm His, He's Mine, her 2024 single that's become a fan favorite.
While the playful drama thrilled the audience in Nevada, Perry's ambitious 84-date Lifetimes world tour hasn't been smooth sailing. Though she packed arenas across Australia earlier this year, her shows in the United States have struggled with ticket sales, with several venues reportedly falling short of full capacity, according to the New York Post.
Her tour's production design has also drawn criticism online, with some calling the visuals 'cheap' and lacking the flair fans expect from a star of her calibre.
Adding to her recent challenges, reports surfaced that Perry won't be returning for another stint in Las Vegas, following backlash from her controversial Blue Origin space flight in April – a high-profile, all-female mission that included Gayle King and Lauren Sanchez but received mixed reactions from the public.

Deepika Padukone's 8-Hour Shift Request Isn't New, Says Siddharth P Malhotra: 'Kajol, Rani Did It Too'

Siddharth P Malhotra supports Deepika Padukone's 8-hour shift demand, reveals Kajol and Rani Mukerji made similar requests years ago. Calls media chatter 'publicity'. Last month, reports surfaced that Deepika Padukone had opted out of Sandeep Reddy Vanga's upcoming film Spirit, allegedly due to working condition concerns—including a request for an eight-hour workday. The development came eight months after the birth of her daughter, Dua Padukone. Weighing in on the matter, filmmaker Siddharth P Malhotra—who helmed Junaid Khan's debut film Maharaj and directed Rani Mukerji's comeback film Hichki—stated that such requests are not new and have existed in the industry for years. 'We finished Hichki, the whole film, in 28 eight-hour shifts," Malhotra told IANS. 'Whether it was Rani (Mukerji), the kids, the cameramen or the spot boy, everyone finished in that time." Hichki, produced by Yash Raj Films, marked Rani Mukerji's return to the screen after the birth of her daughter Adira in December 2015. Recalling that emotional period, Rani had said, 'For 14 months, I have been there in front of her face. So I kept asking myself, 'Is it going to be worth it?'" She even confessed to 'howling in the car" on her first day back on set. Malhotra explained that every project comes with its own expectations and timelines, but the concept of eight-hour workdays isn't unprecedented. 'It's been happening for years. When I'd shot with Kajol in 2010, she used to do eight-hour shifts. She made it very clear she'd either come from 10 am to 6 pm, or 7 am to 2 pm, or for an eight-hour shift at night. Rani also did the same. Deepika isn't demanding anything new." Kajol recently supported the same practice in an interview with PTI, stating, 'I didn't work for 20 or 30 hours. I was always very clear that we would work a certain amount only, and my mom (veteran actor Tanuja) also backed me up big time on it." Addressing the controversy around Deepika's exit, Malhotra added, 'If I need an actor and am confident I can finish the film within those working hours, I'd work with them even for six hours a day. This isn't actor-specific. People are just gaining publicity in the name of Deepika Padukone. She's asking for family time, what wrong is she demanding?" He also remarked that if Vanga required longer hours from his female lead, the director could always adjust the schedule accordingly or cast someone else. 'If the director can't accommodate the timeline, they can simply choose to work with another actor," he said. Following Deepika's reported exit, director Sandeep Reddy Vanga has signed Animal breakout star Triptii Dimri as the lead opposite Prabhas in Spirit. The film, backed by Bhushan Kumar's T-Series, is scheduled to release in cinemas next year. First Published:

How Did Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez's Wedding Spark New Tension Between Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom? Find Out

Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom are reportedly going through a difficult period in their relationship, with Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez's upcoming wedding adding to the strain. The couple, who have been together since 2016 and engaged since 2019, are facing disagreements on multiple fronts, including Perry's recent space trip and who will attend the Bezos-Sánchez wedding in Venice on June 24. According to Daily Mail sources, Perry was left hurt after Bloom dismissed her spaceflight with Blue Origin as 'cringeworthy' and 'embarrassing'. The April 2025 flight was organized by Lauren Sánchez, and although Perry had hoped Bloom would support the experience, he reportedly said, 'The whole thing looked ridiculous.' An insider from Perry's side added, 'Imagine going to space, motherf****** space, and your partner isn't impressed.' Why is Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez's wedding causing tension? Now, as Bloom gets ready to attend the three-day Bezos-Sánchez wedding celebration, Perry is noticeably absent from the guest list. TMZ reports that Perry has 'prior commitments', as she continues her world tour in Australia. However, a source revealed, 'It goes deeper than that.' 'Katy feels like they're really her friends more than his,' the insider said. 'And yet he's the one going to the wedding. She feels like it's a 'f*** you' to her from him.' Another point of tension is the fact that Bezos and Sánchez made the Blue Origin space trip possible for Katy Perry. 'He complains about her going to space and then wants to go to the wedding of the people who made it happen,' the source added. They added that it's difficult for her to accept. The couple is also struggling with career-related issues. Perry's latest album 143, received poor reviews, with critics calling it 'reductive' and 'AI-generated'. A source told PEOPLE the album has caused tension in her relationship with Bloom. Her Lifetimes world tour is also seeing slow ticket sales in some regions, leading to increased online criticism. Adding to the stress, Perry recently shared personal photos and stories about their relationship online, including topless snaps of Bloom, despite their past agreement to keep things private. This has reportedly frustrated Bloom, who feels Perry is using their personal life to manage public backlash. A second source close to Orlando Bloom shared that he feels Katy has changed over the past year and that he's grown frustrated. According to the source, Bloom had advised her against releasing the album, taking the space trip, and going on tour, but she chose to go ahead with all of it. From his perspective, he fell in love with who she truly is, but believes this past year has brought out a side of her that he finds difficult. He simply wants her to be happy, authentic, and to take a moment to enjoy the life she has built.

‘Only Nora Fatehi could pull off those dance moves in Garmi, it didn't look vulgar': Choreographer Kruti Mahesh

Kruti Mahesh, who was a contestant on the reality show Dance India Dance season 2 in 2009, rose the ranks when she assisted Remo D'Souza on the popular Holi dance number 'Balam Pichkari' in Ayan Mukerji's 2013 blockbuster romantic comedy Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani. While choreographing 'Garmi', a dance number in D'Souza's 2020 directorial Street Dancer 3D, she got a lot of flak for Nora Fatehi's pelvic movements in the song. Now, she has opened up on the criticism and lauded Nora for pulling off the tricky dance moves sans any vulgarity. 'Every person representing something on the camera has an image. She can pull off (anything). Mind you, it still didn't look vulgar. It still had its own charm, the way she did it,' said Kruti in an interview with Just Too Filmy. She added, 'If it was somebody else, I wouldn't have had them do it. It was only because it was Nora and she's capable of making something like that… Nora. Otherwise it didn't make sense.' The choreographer revealed that Nora also pushes her to do something new and challenging because as a dancer, she's willing to take up those risks. 'In African dances, what you see right now and call 'twerking,' it's their folk style, it's what they do as street folk, it's their way of expression. So, if you're going to watch it with a certain mindset, then I'm sorry but films are not meant to be watched like that. It's someone's vision,' said Kruti. 'Garmi', sung by Badshah and Neha Kakkar, featured Nora Fatehi alongside Varun Dhawan. Produced by Remo D'Souza Entertainment and Bhushan Kumar's T-Series, Street Dancer 3D is a dance film also starring Shraddha Kapoor, Raghav Juyal, Aparshakti Khurana, Sonam Bajwa, Upasana Singh, Zarina Wahab, and Manoj Pahwa among others. Kruti Mahesh has also choreographed Shraddha in 'Sun Sathiya' from Remo's 2015 dance film ABCD 2, Deepika Padukone and Priyanka Chopra in 'Pinga' and Deepika in 'Deewani Mastani' from Sanjay Leela Bhansali's 2015 period romance Bajirao Mastani, Alia Bhatt in 'Meri Jaan' and 'Dholida' from Bhansali's 2022 period drama Gangubai Kathiawadi, and Wamiqa Gabbi in 'Vo Tere Mere Ishq Ka' from Vikramaditya Motwane's 2023 period show Jubilee on Prime Video India.

She choreographed the folk-pop song alongside Jyothi D Tomar, an exponent of Rajasthan's folk dance ghoomar. Kruti has most recently choreographed Trisha Krishnan in 'Sugar Baby' from Mani Ratnam's Tamil crime thriller Thug Life.
