Interestingly, Trudeau chose to dress up as a shark that looked nearly identical to the sharks from Perry\u2019s big performance a decade ago.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Posing with his son Hadrien\u2014who was a surfer for Halloween\u2014Trudeau wrote, cheekily, \u201cI\u2019m the shark (to his left).\u201d\n<\/p>\n \u201cWe built the costume together\u2014a little father-son Halloween teamwork,\u201d he added on Instagram.\n<\/p>\n Katy Perry performing at the Super Bowl on February 1, 2015.<\/p>\n Getty<\/p>\n Katy Perry performing at the Super Bowl on February 1, 2015.<\/p>\n Getty<\/p>\n Trudeau and Perry\u2019s first public appearance together as a couple took place on October 25 in Paris, when the duo took in a cabaret show at the Crazy Horse to mark Perry\u2019s 41st birthday.
