Talk about a teenage dream! From John Mayer to Orlando Bloom, Katy Perry has dated some of Hollywood’s hottest hunks. Click through to relive the “Swish Swish” singer’s famous romances.
Perry and the Gym Class Heroes frontman dated from 2007 to 2008. When MTV News asked the pop star how she felt about her split from McCoy in early 2009, she suggested that her love life had taken a backseat to her burgeoning career. “Well, it’s a new year, and I’m very focused,” she said at the time.
Perry and Groban were rumored to have dated in early 2009. Though reps for both artists denied a relationship, Groban later suggested that he and the California Gurl were more than platonic at one point. "We might have skated on the line of dating,” he told Details in 2013. Perry recently joked in a YouTube livestream that Groban was “the one that got away.”
Perry’s whirlwind romance with Brand began in 2009, after hitting it off at the MTV Video Music Awards. They tied the knot in an intimate wedding ceremony in India in October 2010 — barely a year after meeting. Perry called it quits on their marriage after 14 months, and the pair finalized their divorce in July 2012.
In spring 2012, Perry briefly dated the Florence + The Machine guitarist. However, she wasn’t fully ready to commit so soon after her divorce from Brand. “[It’s] not even appropriate to label [us a couple],” she told USA Today at the time. "There are times I go out and meet people and flirt, but it's not really appropriate to have anything serious."
Perry and the “Daughters” crooner started dating in 2012, but broke up in 2014. Though they briefly reunited in 2015, the duo couldn’t make it last. Despite their split, Mayer — who collaborated with Perry on 2013’s “Who You Love” – told Ellen DeGeneres that he was unwilling to divulge what went wrong between them. "I can understand asking the question based on some previous answers I have given, but I have finally learned how to put the wall between one thing and the other," he explained at the time. "I've been much happier since then."
Perry and the DJ dated for nearly a year before they pulled the plug in March 2015. While neither star offered insight as to why they split, Perry recently suggested to James Corden that their sex life wasn’t the greatest. Asked to rate her former lovers in bed, Perry told the British TV personality that Diplo wasn’t as good as exes Orlando Bloom or Mayer.
The couple first met at CAA’s 2016 Golden Globes afterparty at Sunset Tower in January 2016. They’d date until February 2017 until rekindling their romance in January 2018. On Valentine's Day 2019, the actor popped the question with a stunning engagement ring. "Lifetimes," he captioned an Instagram pic of the couple. On her own account, Perry added: "full bloom." The singer's mom also confirmed the engagement on her Facebook page.
