Hamilton: An American Musical

Justin Trudeau loves his home country, but he loves his California gurl, too. After skipping the World Cup opening in Canada to attend the United States vs. Paraguay match with Katy Perry instead, the politician explained his reasoning on social media.

In a Saturday (June 13) post on X, Trudeau reshared a New York Times article pointing out his absence from Canada’s face-off with Bosnia and Herzegovina the day prior. “Sometimes supportive boyfriend duties call,” he wrote, implying that he was needed elsewhere to cheer on his famous girlfriend as she performed during the opening ceremony before Team USA’s kickoff match.
