Orlando Bloom @ Kids’ Choice Awards 2008

I still think it is strange that he has so totally isolated himself from his friends and family. He has said they are the most important things to him, yet he lives halfway round the world from them. And not because he has to, because he chooses to, I agree I miss that young sweet kid that played Legolas, I think he was a sincere caring person, Now I think fame, drugs or alcohol and money have turned into a jaded cynic, who doesn’t want to be around his family, because he doesn’t want to hear what they would tell him. That he needs help, and women like Miranda will only use him until they find someone higher up on the food chain to dump him for, They way things are going with his non-career that shouldn’t be too long.

Well just because she didnt go to this VS event (after all only one other VS model went with her to that PINK one) doesnt mean she isnt in NY as there was a VS event a few weeks back in LA when she was in LA and she didnt go.

true - I posted the link more as a reflection of her lack of work for VS big events, rather than to say she wasn’t in NY. I probably worded it badly.

I’ve half been expecting more pics of them, to be honest. She must be going crazy with all the Orlando/Jennifer Aniston stories that are making the rounds at the moment.

Ah. I see now. You’re not a shipper, you can’t stand her, you see her ambition and willingness to pim–excuse me–do set ups, etc. etc. You even acknowledge that they were set ups.
But what you can’t tolerate seeing is that St. Orlando would participate in this, so you twist it into a nice little romance.

If this were truly a developing, loving and intimate and mature relationship between two people WHY do they even NEED to put on a show–do set ups you called it– at all? To make an announcement?!
What type of fu–excuse me– grownup people need to make announcements about their relationship(to a public that by and large don’t give a rat’s a** about them) like that?!!! They DON’T; a strong couple would just go quietly live their lives.
No “we’re ready to make it exclusive because we’re really real–really, we are!” photo declarations and press releases. No week of pap setups so they have a cache of cute kissy couple photos to be sent out with any future announcements about the State of Their Relationship. And right now it seems after The Show ,they go their separate ways; Bloom- alone- to his Hollywood parties, and her, well I guess she stays at home waiting for him to return. It doesn’t look too good, and she knows it. Which is why we keep getting these hysterical twists in the Aussie tabs.
The general public looks at these two and their type of press and they chuckle and think “oh. They’re THAT type of celebrity couple-famewh**es.” No one thinks”Wow! What a classy and truly loving couple. Bright future ahead, wish them the best!”

bravo. And she said admited that maybe they were ‘onagain” but
what kind of normal couple celebrates being back together by calling the press and putting on a tour for them?Wouldn’t you want to go away and spend some down time together rebuidling your relationship? or maybe you would chose tocall the paps and hve them meet you at the ducati store and practice walking in and out of there? yeah, thats the ticket. Sounds like true love to me.

LOL LOL!
Yea. I’ve heard they’re so friendly and discreet, they’ll even make house calls!

258 I agree with you I don’t think this relationship will last and don’t think it’s love either. I do believe he needs help. Idon’t think he is in the right state of mind sometimes .Whatever the reasons are he needs help before this gets out of hand. I believe the reason we don’t see that twinkle anymore is because he has allowed hollywood to get the best of him. I always said theres several thinga that can ruin a career 1. drugs 2.liquire.3.wrong women 4.wrong friends 5.ego and I think he has allowed all of these things around him.

I have said it before and I will say it again, as Miranda looks like a childish girl I think VS put her more into the “training bra” “girlie” section rather than the “real women” sections and as VS is more seductive underwear, that kind of leaves her out of the running, I will never get why VS took her on her modelling is crap, she can’t pose that well at all, and did you see the newest pics in the playboy undies- they didnt even airbrush out her zits on her forehead she lookes ugly in them,and I wouldnt class her as ugly, just weird looking, maybe someone just email VS and ask how long Miranda will be with them for ;) (dare ya ;)

I get you. But why would Orlando care or want to help her “save face” anymore, it can’t go on forever surely, I know you said that she may have threastened to go to the papers, but surely Orlando must realise that if she was doing that she may do that to him forever more, all he would need to do is deny everything, he has one of the best publicists in the business- so he could probably get out of most of what she said unless she did have incriminating pictoral or film evidence.

Again who are these friends an ex friends- if you mean people that have come on here, again we don’t know they are legitimate, and it is doubtful they would be.

I can agree that if she was “blackmailing him” which that is what it would be in a nutshell, that he would have to get some kind of help from someone to get him out of that situation, and like I said he will have to get rid of her sometime, I can imagine he would keep going on with it in a hope she would get sick of him, but what if- for example he fell in love with someone- then what would he do?

I just think it is an odd situation to think she is blackmailing him when logic just says that maybe they are a couple just having fun and pimping it out, I think yeah- ok hands up that is a huge possibiltiy after thinking about it more, but I think surely he has to be with her because HE WANTS TO BE, and to me that is what it all comes down to for me, he seems happy with her, yes he could look happier, I just don’t think there is a whole lot of cloak and dagger going on, but again thats just me and how I see things as it is more “normal”. But fine I respect what you say- fair enough.

As to why he would care: Maybe if a girl calls him crying that he needs to help her out of this mess since she was left a laughing stock he agreed. Just because they broke up-and possibly even allowed those pics to go to oz on purpose-he might give in and help her out. She looked like the girl that was dumped by orlando and her career was going no where. I think she felt like if he went after her while seh was with jay some of this was his fault. Not saying I agree but I can see her saying something like that. I can see him feeling like he should take some of it as well.
I don’ t know about the blackmailing, that was more from others point of view. But if that was the case and she does have vid’s or photos it won’t matter what kind of publicist you have if those things are made public its still embarrassing.

As for how long: It doesn’t have to be a long time. Some have suggested just long enough so it ddidn’t look like she was dumped and then they will have some sort of split where it doesn’t look as bad.

I disagree with you on saying its logical to assume they are together. I think if they were together for real they would not have done a pap fest the way they did. It’s more logical to me looking at that that there was another motive. That is not how normal couples act-like they have something to prove. Especially adding to that all the other factors that seemed they had split.

As for “insiders”: Yeah, if you don’t know them don’t take them as gospel. I don’t take them that way but I do think friends. ex-friends and possibly family have posted here before. She isn’t the classiest and it isn’t above her to do so. If you don’t think so-that cool, no sense arguing about it.

They might have hooked up when she was in LA and maybe they did try to be ‘on again’ or whatever they are calling it. Who knows. But I think the whole thing screams fake and well, I guess we will have to wait and see what happens next.

The reality is that Orlando needs the PR too whether his fans want to accept it or not. He quit that movie, and there haven’t been any confirmations regarding another movie project. He needs all the press he can get. He has done this stuff before and had the GF take the heat for being the one to set up the paps. This whole thread is about his appearance at the KCA’s. IMO the kids couldn’t have cared less about his appearance. They wanted someone else - plain and simple. You watch the show - there were kids cheering different names before he came out and then just polite applause when he came out. During the sliming, people were leaving the audience before it was even over. I’m sure he had to pull himself together after that. He had to see and hear what was going on during the show. That show was just the cherry on the top. I think they both wanted to make the regular press as the new “hot couple,” but it didn’t happen. A few tabs picked it up, but the entertainment shows and magazines didn’t really care. They cared more about Jen Anniston and Orlando which is a non-starter. Orlando needs good press right now. He has nothing else.

Why doesn’t he go home, spend some time with real friends and family that won’t sit around and feed his ego, but tell him the truth, People have come backs. Get himself cleaned up, internally and externally find a nice little movie where he doesn’t have to be the star. the one like Education that he f–ed up and try to get back in the game. About the middle of May when nothing has happened with Red Circle, I may just have to visit his various worship sites IMBD Ka-bloom, olove and see how his deranged fans explain that little detail. You know they wil have some bizzare story. I am betting that Johnny To pulled out and left their poor boy hanging, I am hoping that Education does great, and maybe it will make him wake up and realize that he is being an ass
