Katy Perry tackles past romances Orlando Bloom, John Mayer on display

Katy Perry used a giant mock iPhone on stage to take a cheeky swipe at her exes and make it very clear exactly who she’s picking up the phone for these days.

During an appearance at the O Son do CamiƱo music festival in Santiago de Compostela, Spain on June 18, Perry staged an elaborate bit while performing her 2020 hit Never Really Over.

As she blurted out the lyrics about rekindling a relationship with an irresistible ex, a giant prop phone behind her showed incoming calls from apparent references to three former flames, and she made a show of sending most of them straight to voicemail.

The first call, labeled “JM” along with a guitar emoji, appeared to be a nod to John Mayer.

Perry pressed the red button.

Another call referencing Diplo received the same treatment.

When “OB” popped up, apparently a nod to Orlando Bloom, complete with a spade emoji paying homage to his ace of spades tattoo on his chest, Perry let it ring instead of answering, though she didn’t pick up.

Bloom is father to her five-year-old daughter Daisy Dove.

The real crowd-pleaser came when the initials “JPJT” appeared under a Canadian flag emoji, a rather transparent reference to her current boyfriend Justin Pierre James Trudeau, the former Canadian prime minister.

Perry repeatedly and enthusiastically pressed the green answer button. Message received.

Perry, 41, and Trudeau, 54, have been together for almost a year.

Her split from Bloom was confirmed in 2025 after nine years together, with representatives for both parties telling E! News at the time the couple had “shifted their relationship over the past several months to focus on coparenting”, adding that raising Daisy “with love, stability and mutual respect” remains their shared priority.

Notably absent from the earlier roll call on stage was Russell Brand, who Perry divorced in 2012.
