In a recent interview for Canadian radio show "Q on CBC," Perry opened up about her past breakup with Orlando Bloom, how it affected her mental health, and how she came out the other side.
"I lost my smile," Perry told host Tom Power. "I don't know if my smile was ever fully, like, authentically mine but I was riding on the high of a smile for a long time. Which was the validation, love, and admiration from the outside world, and then that shifted." While Perry couldn't pinpoint exactly what had shifted in her career, she described it as having a "seismic" impact.
