It’s Katy Perry for the clutch!

The “Roar” singer tamped down a potentially awkward moment at the Tribeca Film Festival premiere of her new concert movie, “Katy Perry: The Lifetimes Tour – Live from Paris.”

During Monday’s showing, the movie projector stopped working as the live music documentary showed her singing “CRUSH” — prompting an exasperated groan from the audience.

The pop star, 41, immediately sprang out of her seat and encouraged the audience to pick up where the song left off, leading the enthusiastic crowd in belting out the hit from her “143” album.

A few seconds later, the film thankfully came back on, allowing Perry and her boyfriend, Justin Trudeau, to enjoy the rest of the show.

The documentary was filmed over two nights in Paris during Perry’s “Lifetime” tour, which saw her perform 91 concerts around the globe.

Monday’s premiere marked the couple’s first red carpet appearance as they happily posed for photos.

Inside, they continued to put their love on display — as we saw them holding hands, cuddling and even dancing to the concert film.

After the movie, Perry sat down for a Q&A, where she revealed she is “in love” with the former Canadian Prime Minister, 54, describing him as “the love of my life.”

“Every day is a fantastic journey,” she shared. “And every day is a chance to evolve, and be a better person, and do the right thing, and to be a model for your community, and your world, and I would say, at the end of 91 shows, I feel like I’m more grounded now personally in so many aspects of my life.”

Perry added that she is “very in love,” and credits Trudeau with making her feel anchored.

“I’m a little bit of a rainbow kite,” the “Last Friday night” singer explained. “I fly super high…Sometimes I need to be anchored, so to have that anchor finally makes me feel really whole.”

The couple, who went Instagram-official back in December and have blended their families, are nearing their first anniversary.

Perry was previously in a relationship with Orlando Bloom, with whom she shares a daughter, Daisy, 5. Meanwhile, Trudeau has three children with his estranged wife, Sophie Grégoire.
