Ever get that feeling the stars are having a bit of a laugh at our expense? Take Katy Perry, for instance — caught under the unforgiving July sun aboard a $500 million yacht, rocking a black bikini that sent her vibe from “radiant” to “did she forget to eat lunch?” The pop diva, fresh off confirming her split from Orlando Bloom, flaunted curves that had folks talking more about their absence than presence. With the cosmos twirling Mercury retrograde mischief, one can’t help but wonder: Is Katy’s slender silhouette a cosmic side effect, or just the universe’s wild way of reminding us all that even million-dollar yachts and chart-topping hits can’t shield you from the social media hunger games? Whether you’re Team “Send Her a Hamburger” or Team “Let the Girl Live,” this July moment sure stirred up a galaxy of opinions. Ready to dive deeper? LEARN MORE.
Katy Perry‘s figure sparked concern earlier this year as she was photographed aboard a $500 million yacht. The singer, 40, stripped down to a plunging black bikini in July, making headlines for her swimsuit display, plus for being photographed just after confirming her split from Orlando Bloom. Flaunting her newly single curves after ending her nine-year relationship with the actor, Katy sizzled in the sun, but for some, this girl didn’t have enough meat on her bones. Katy, who has sparked endless Ozempic rumors for the last 18 months, had one user telling her to “eat a hamburger,” and it wouldn’t be the first time a fan has remarked on her weight recently.

Looking in good spirits as she was photographed from far away, Katy highlighted her trim shoulders and toned arms, modeling a teeny black swimsuit with a halterneck. Baring her slimmed-down back as she wore shades, the “Woman’s World” star sported her hair tied back, going fuss-free and without a scrap of makeup on.

Squinting in the sunshine despite her protective eyewear, Katy didn’t look her most camera-ready, but she nonetheless stunned with a display of her abs and gorgeous features. The pop star had made headlines for her outing, where she was joined by 48-year-old Orlando and the former couple’s daughter, Daisy, ahead of her boarding the yacht.
“#KatyPerry looks radiant in a black bikini as she relaxes on a yacht with friends after her breakup,” a caption read. Some fans disagreed, with more than one challenging the word “radiant.”

Over 90 fans agreed when one user picked Katy Perry apart over her weight loss. “She needs to@eat a hamburger,” the fan wrote. Alleging that Katy’s new body is down to weight loss medication, another replied: “Oh oh oh oh zempic.”
Katy has never admitted to using any kind of weight loss drug. Elsewhere, fans trashed Katy, accusing her of being a bad mother. “Is she ever with her kid?” one asked. That very outing saw Katy spending time with Daisy, born in 2020.

“They will continue to be seen together as a family, as their shared priority is – and always will be – raising their daughter with love, stability, and mutual respect,” Katy Perry jointly stated with Orlando Bloom as the two announced the split. Katy has since made headlines for this September 2025 look, going braless in a paneled, corseted dress with cute floral designs. She modeled the look on Instagram, shouting out her Lifetimes tour by writing:
“It takes two to tango… lucky me to have two shows in Buenos Aires on The Lifetimes Tour starting tonight.” The post has topped 200,000 likes.
