Diplo claimed he has dated both Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau during his recent appearance on the “Smart Girl Dumb Questions” podcast.
The topic came up while the DJ was discussing Quebec with host Nayeema Raza. Diplo called the city a “horny” place, which led to Raza commenting that it had “a hot prime minister,” who Perry is now dating.
Diplo said he previously dated the “Dark Horse” singer and shocked Raza even further when he added, “I did date Trudeau, too.”
“That was a weird one though,” he continued. “Because I’m just … I’m not in the positions.”
Since it wasn’t clear whether Diplo was joking, the podcast’s official YouTube account had to clarify that he did, in fact, make the wild claim in jest after a fan asked if he was serious about dating the politician.
“lol!! no that part was a joke,” the account replied back in the comments section of the episode.
However, Diplo, 46, and Perry, 41, did date. They were briefly linked back in 2014, when they were spotted at Coachella and other industry events together.
Perry ranked him as her third best lover behind Orlando Bloom and John Mayer back in 2017 while playing a game with James Corden on the Witness World Wide live stream.
Diplo responded on Twitter at the time, writing, “I don’t even remember having sex.”
He followed up the tweet with, “I won the bronze in sex Olympics.”
Perry is now dating Trudeau, 53, after her split from Bloom earlier this year. The singer and the politician made their first public appearance as a couple last weekend, when they stepped out holding hands in Paris to celebrate her birthday.
Trudeau is “crazy” about the “Teenage Dream” singer and “thinks she is the perfect woman,” a source told Page Six.
“They are simpatico on everything including politics, kids and French food,” the source said, also noting, “Both have a sparkle for each other.”
Trudeau separated from his wife of 18 years, Sophie Grégoire, in 2023. They share three children together: son Xavier, 18, daughter Ella-Grace, 16, and son Hadrien, 11.
Perry shares one child with Bloom, 5-year-old Daisy.
