Sen. Ted Cruz made headlines on Capitol Hill by jokingly suggesting that Katy Perry is out of Justin Trudeau's league, using the phrase 'outkicking your coverage.' Cruz remarked, "There's an old phrase of 'outkicking your coverage,' and I think Justin's managed to do so," highlighting the disparity in celebrity status.1
Cruz, who has been married to his wife Heidi Cruz for 25 years, added that he feels he is in the same 'camp' as Trudeau regarding their relationships. He humorously noted, "Well, I will say, objectively, it does prove U.S. Canada relations," suggesting that the connection between the two figures is a positive reflection of international ties.
