Katy Perry Closes Australia Concert With Tears Amid Orlando Bloom Split

Katy Perry cries at Australia concert while thanking fans for always being there for her. The emotional moment follows her split from Orlando Bloom.

In June, she headed to Australia for a 15-date run that concluded with an emotional address to the crowd as she weathers an entirely different hardship: her split from Orlando Bloom. People reported that Perry and Bloom’s relationship had been “breaking down the last couple of months and isn’t looking good,” after the singer was “stressed” about the reception of her album 143. “Perry seems aware of her unmoored state on 143, but that doesn’t stop her from trying to reclaim the cultural spot that she had in in the late ‘00s and early ‘10s through tricks — cheap if hooky affirmations, broad appeals to the male gaze — that worked back then,” Rolling Stone wrote in a review of the record.
