Katy Perry got emotional during her Inglewood concert on July 15, 2025. While performing the emotional “Not Like the Movies,” a fan-requested ballad from her “Teenage Dream” album, she hinted at something deeper. The song, written after she started dating her then-husband Russell Brand in 2011, seemed to reflect her current emotional state.
@ashtongaler “Y’all want me to sing Not Like The Movies at this time in my life” Katy Perry mentions her separation with Orlando Bloom @Katy Perry @Katy Perry Universe #katyperry #katyperrytour #lifetimestour #notlikethemovies #teenagedream #theonethatgotaway #losangeles
Before singing, she told the crowd, “You all want me to sing Not Like The Movies at this time in my life?” and playfully added, “Good for you, two songs about breakups, good for you.” Fans immediately connected her words to recent news about her split from Orlando Bloom, which could’ve been the reason for her reaction to the fan-requested track. The couple, who got engaged in 2019 and share a daughter, Daisy, reportedly ended things in June 2025 after years of ups and downs.
Despite the breakup, Katy Perry is still handling things with professionalism. The pop star continues visiting cities around the world with The Lifetimes Tour. As of July 2025, she’s expected to perform in the United States and Canada, and she’s also scheduled to visit Latin America, Europe, and Asia.
