Katy Perry hooked up with DJ Diplo at Coachella, they’re ‘inseparable’

Katy Perry

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: Katy Perry has the worst taste in men. As wonderful as Russell Brand is as a person, everyone knew he’d make a terrible husband. John Mayer makes a terrible everything. Katy previously went out with Travie McCoy from Gym Class Heroes. Travie also has a reputation as a douche. Most recently, Katy had a brief dalliance with rapper Riff Raff. Who knows what that was all about, but Riff Raff did retweet our story, and his Twitter followers were … not kind.

Now Katy has found another new man, DJ Diplo, and they were all over each other at Coachella. Katy previously romanced Robert Ackroyd at Coachella two years ago. She seems to find rebound dudes there. I don’t know much about Diplo as a musician, but his online presence is a bit sketchy. He dated M.I.A. for several years, but there’s a baby mama out there too. Here’s the gross part — if you google for it, you’ll find photos of Diplo’s wang … next to an unflushed toilet. He sounds like such a nice boy. Here’s a photo of Katy’s new man and the details from Page Six:

Katy Perry has moved on from her split with John Mayer by hooking up with top music producer and DJ Diplo at Coachella.

Perry, 29, was spotted with Diplo, 35 – the LA-based producer and recording artist who’s worked with Justin Bieber, Britney Spears, Usher and Bruno Mars – backstage at the music festival and also at a series of parties.

A witness told Page Six: “Katy and Diplo hooked up at Coachella. They were together behind the main stage, where she had a tour bus or trailer, and a group of her friends were hanging out.” The music spy added, “It was very obvious that Katy and Diplo were together. They seemed inseparable and at one point they were seen getting onto her bus together.”

The pair were also reportedly inseparable at a party for designer Jeremy Scott and Adidas on Saturday night. Radar Online reported, “They’ve been friends forever … It definitely looked like more than that! At one point he even had his arms around her.”

It’s not the first time Perry’s found romance at the California music fest: In 2012, she was seen kissing, hugging and dancing with Florence + the Machine guitarist Robert Ackroyd, months after filing for divorce from Russell Brand.

She then began dating Mayer in the summer of 2012, and the on-and-off couple broke up and reconciled countless times before finally calling it quits in February of this year.

Born Thomas Wesley Pentz, Diplo was previously romantically linked to rapper M.I.A. for about five years. He’s the founder of hot record label Mad Decent and part of the duo Jack U with West Coast DJ Skrillex.

Perry’s also been spotted at a host of Coachella parties with green hair, mugging for pictures with Steven Tyler and Robert Pattinson. She tweeted at the fest: “Dear festival friends remember, selfing is a disease.”

This sounds like a fling, right? Katy’s getting ready to go on tour, so I doubt she’d start a serious relationship right now. Of course Katy did get married right before her last tour, so who knows.

Katy has a new jewelry line coming out soon. She partnered up with Claires to sell cheap-ass trinkets with a “Roar” theme. I’ve included some pictures in the gallery. Claires used to be where I bought my tacky, massive hoop earrings in high school. They’re right up Katy’s alley. Teens will eat this stuff up.

    Oh this makes me laugh. My 50 year old die hard Diplo fan boyfriend (and closet Katy Perry fan) is going to squeal when he hears this. I can already imagine the remix. (Make it clap, make it clap, make it clap, barf.)

  2. Leah says:

    That is not diplo in the photo.

  3. Dani2 says:

    Everytime I think of diplo, I think of that gross d-ck pic he posted a little while ago. Katy’s taste in men remains flawless, I guess😖

  4. pru says:

    I know that the jewelry line is probably a smart move financially, but I am so sick of every celebrity having to “brand” themselves. Who wants to dress and smell like Katy Perry? Hopefully only a teenage girl.

  5. Sue says:

    That first picture you used of Diplo (the one in the hat) is NOT Diplo.

    Also, Diplo is amazing. The crazy beat on Beyonce’s “Girls Run the World” is a sample from a Diplo track.

  6. blue marie says:

    Much like Katy’s music, those trinkets are crap.

  7. Ag says:

    Picture of a d*ck with an unflushed toilet in the background? I think I’m going to barf…

  8. lucy2 says:

    Katy and Claire’s sound like a match made in heaven.

  9. Ashley says:

    He likes dark/mixed girls so I take this with a grain of salt. Also Diplo heads up the record company Riff Raff is signed to so maybe they’re friends through that connection. I cannot see Diplo going after Riff Raffs sloppy seconds (mostly because he has so much ass on his twitter and Instagram I’m sure he can find hotter chicks than Perry) or going after some girl Riff Raff is still retweeing tweets about (and their supposed relationship).

    And yes, sadly I follow both of them on Twitter. Although Riff Raff is such a crappy rapper, his ego and his idiotic tweets are not justified.

    • Rusty Machine says:

      I have heard of Riff Raff through Mad Decent. Then googled him to get an idea of who else Katy had banged. And then I cried. Actually I wailed.

  10. smee says:

    Well, I surely like his music waaaaaaaaaaay better than hers………

  11. Rusty machine says:

    My first thought when I clicked on this story was “Noooooooo”, but for Diplo, not Katy. I envision a collaboration with a video in candyland with them talking about cake and ice cream. Maybe it’s because I too am a die hard Diplo fan, but dear God in heaven don’t make them a couple. And yes, I expect Diplo is sketchy, but gracious his DJ skills are amazing. And minus the sketch, I would so tap that…many times over. Judge away.

    • stinky says:

      what about Russel B MARRYING her ass???
      Good LORD was that whole mess really just a publicity stunt?
      He is leagues too good for her – lothario or not, he’s brilliant.

      • Trillion says:

        From Mia to Katy Perry? What a severe drop. And I was so glad when she and RB broke up. She did not deserve him.

  12. Jezzy says:

    Diplo’s hot.
    Katy strikes me as one of those types of people that cannot be single/alone to save their life. She is probably very insecure and seeks validation in the form of men. So she hops from one relationship to another. It’s sad.

  13. INeedANap says:

    GIRL. Take a night off. Start watching House of Cards on Netflix, that should occupy you for a few days.

    • BeachBelle says:

      For real. Homegirl needs to chill for a bit. Get a massage, organize her house, spend quality time with her friends. Get your act together before you throw your ass back out on the ho stroll Katy. She has such awful taste.

  14. Anna says:

    I don’t see this happening at all. Btw Kathryn isn’t just a “baby mama” they’ve been together for years so I don’t believe this.. if he were to cheat on Kathryn why would he choose Katy (someone who is so high profile? when she doesn’t seem his “type”)..
    I love Diplo and I’m actually a pretty big fan of his (his album as Major Lazer is amazing), and he actually seems like a good guy and a loving father.. its funny how DM and several gossip sites left that out

  15. Kosmos says:

    Why oh why does Katie pick the worst men? I actually feel bad about her and Mayer because I thought she was really into him, but he just cannot be with anyone for long. She pursued him anyway, even with his long rap sheet, even after breaking up once and getting back with him. She really needs to find out why she picks the wrong guys.

  16. vvvoid says:

    Evil Boy by Die Antwoord feat Diplo=classic.
    Just on that virtue alone, he’s too good for her.

  17. Bee beez says:

    I actually think they are a perfect match. The princess of pop + the edm guy who’s made one of the biggest pop crossovers. They are young, wild, and free. And they just wanna party. I bet they will have a LOT of fun.
