Katy Perry got emotional on Monday, June 30, as she wrapped the Australian leg of her Lifetimes Tour amid her split from Orlando Bloom.
“Thank you for always being there for me, Australia. It means the world,” a teary-eyed Perry, 40, told the audience at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre in Adelaide, South Australia, as she made a heart symbol with her hands.
“Now let’s sing ‘Firework!’” Perry then said, seguing into one of her signature hits to close the show, per fan footage shared via social media.
Perry spent the majority of June in Australia on her Lifetimes Tour, first performing in Sydney on June 4 before traveling across the country, including dates in Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth. She performed four nights in Adelaide to wrap the Australian leg of the tour.

Perry is next set to perform on home soil as she returns to the U.S. for a July 10 show in Denver.
While Down Under, news broke that Perry and Bloom, 48, have called it quits after nearly a decade together. The couple share a daughter, Daisy Dove, 4.
“Katy and Orlando have split but are amicable,” a source told Us Weekly on Wednesday, June 25. “It’s not contentious at the moment. Katy is of course upset but is relieved to not have to go through another divorce, as that was the worst time in her life.”
The source added that the separation had been a “long time coming” and that things between the former couple had been “tense for months.”
Earlier in June, insiders told Us that the couple had been on the rocks for some time.
“They have been spending more and more time apart. They’ve grown apart and aren’t living the same lives anymore,” one insider said, while another said their inner circle was aware they were going through a difficult time in their relationship.
While Perry was performing in Australia, Bloom attended Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s glamorous wedding in Venice over the weekend.

On Monday, Bloom shared a motivational quote about courage and fear via his Instagram Story amid his split from Perry.
“The important thing is to take that first step.” the actor wrote, crediting Buddhist author Daisaku Ikeda for the quote. “Bravely overcoming one small fear gives you the courage to take on the next.”
Bloom also posted a similarly inspiring quote from the Buddha, which read, “Each day is a new beginning. What we do today is what matters the most.”
