The "Roar" singer, 29, was spotted enjoying dinner with Diplo, born Thomas Wesley Pentz, at the Marlton Hotel in New York on Thursday where onlookers say they acted like a couple. Later they attended the "Amazing Spider-Man 2" after party at Skylight at Moynihan Station, where they were joined by "Office" alum BJ Novak.
"They were very affectionate, very lovey-dovey. They were constantly looking at each other," a source told People magazine.
"Diplo and Katy were super affectionate," another onlooker told Us magazine. "It's a really fun relationship for them both, easy and casual."
The pair, who have not publicly addressed dating reports, were also spotted together at the Coachella music festival in Indio, Calif. On April 13. Diplo previously dated rapper M.I.A. for five years.
"They were stealing kisses at first," an eyewitness said "She was just messing around!"
In March, Perry abruptly ended her relationship with Mayer after two-years of on-and-off dating. It is unclear why the pop star split from the "Paper Doll" singer, 36, however, insiders claim cheating played a role.
"[Katy] found text messages on John's phone from some random girl," a source told The New York Post's Page Six, adding that the split was "mutual" and "extremely amicable."
The "Who You Love" duo showed no signs of strain on Valentine's day when they were photographed enjoying a romantic dinner date.
"They've had rough patches, but this may be for good," a source said of the split.
The singer kicks off her Prismatic world tour in May which is also said to have played a role in their decision to part ways.
"She's stressed about the tour, they've been fighting. It is probably for the best, because she is going to be on tour for forever," a source said.
Perry was once married to British comedian Russell Brand but they separated in 2011 after 14 months of marriage.
