Orlando Bloom: Pigeon, I Love You
Tue, 15 April 2008 at 8:01 am
Orlando Bloom is surprised by an unscripted pigeon in New York City, on the set of his latest film, New York, I Love You.
Orlando’s scene was interrupted by the pigeon, which appeared to startle him.
After looking to check the bird had left the area, Orlando regained his composure and was able to continue shooting his scene.
Orlando, 31, also recently shot scenes with Christina Ricci.
More pics of Orlando loving the pigeon that interrupted his shooting…

If you’re a guy, and you’re famous or becoming famous, which would you rather have people believe?
a) you’re a sexual beast who can have any girl he wants (OB’s current MO or image)
b) you’re sensitive and able to commit (OB’s past MO or relationship with Kate)
c) you’re shy and inexperienced (he admitted shyness on TRL with Cameron and Kirsten while promoting E-town)
d) you’re sterile
e) you’re impotent (medical liklihood after he broke his back, impotence would last for at least 1 1/2-2 years)
f) you’re gay (those rumors have been around him for ages)
h) you’re bisexual (same as above)
We have no way of really knowing what his sexual past was or wasn’t, but it sure seems as though someone really cares about what his image is at various times in his career. If he has had as many sexual partners, male or female, as some people seem to think, he has most likely contracted something along the way. Sorry, but every person he sleeps with has most likely slept with others, and so the bodily fluids spread, along with various STDs. Condoms don’t guarantee 100% safety. They do split.
What’s really odd to me is that despite all his alleged relationships and sexual encounters with women, he never really has believable onscreen chemistry with any of his leading ladies. It’s like he can’t or won’t make that connection with them. I’m sorry, but he’s just not believable as a leading man. Eric Bana had more chemistry with Diane Kruger in ‘Troy’ than Orlando did with her, and Orlando was supposed to be the lover and love interest! How is it that someone can get so much press for his girlfriends and one night stands, but he can’t deliver a solid believable performance on film, with or without a leading lady actress? Maybe I just answered my own question.
He hasn’t been well cast in his lead roles, IMO, and I suspect he dropped out of AE because they wouldn’t expand his role the way they did on ‘Haven.’ We can’t always have what we want the way we want in life, Orly. Even money and fame can’t buy everything.
I believe anything can be forgiven and anyone can change. You are who you are now, not who you were yesterday. I hope he does find someone special who is a good person and a good match for him. (Sorry ,the current chick does not fit that criteria). Despite all the bashing, he seems like a nice, fun guy. I don’t like him for his characters, I like the kind of goofy, quirky, very handsome guy that he seems to be. Though, I do think he can act. I’m just waiting for that perfect role that gets him critical recognition and award noms.
maybe he isn’t believable with is leading ladies, because he has not clue how to project intimacy, He is just used to it being a physical thing and as been since he was a teenager, he doesn’t have any frame of reference for the way love or caring really feels and looks
Good post there, I get what you are saying.
I have been through stages thinking all those things about him at some point in the years I have liked the guy- and now you do wonder which ones are him and which ones are made by his PR team to fit his image for certain reasons.
I can’t make my mind up which one he falls into to be honest.
What about you?
Thats the thing and why I could never have sex with a stranger or someone who has had lots of partners, condoms split rather easily and it isnt worth it for an ****** lol
He is 5′11 for sure because they showed on the pirates extra CD how he was made into a wax figure at Madam tuseau’s and he was a millimeter bellow 5′11. The have to be exact.
@65 Haven’t you seen Haven? He was very sweet and sensitive with his girlfriend, it was very believable and Orlando himself said that his character in that movie was the closest to who he is in real life.
I’m having a hard time trying to figure out what’s real and what’s image too. I just want to know what would make him want this kind of Super Lover image when there’s always been the stigma that a lot of hollywood figures have std’s. Herpes being the most prevalent. I’m pretty sure a lot of it is fluffed up just to get a story in the press but even a John or a Jane Doe who happens to be promiscuous can’t escape the stigma that they have some kind of std as a result of their conquests.
With a name like Orlando, wouldn’t ones image have to be that of a lover?
Not that i believe he is a virgin but I remember janet Charlton quoting a famous actors wife who had Acted with Orlando and she was quoted as saying “Orlando Bloom was a virgin until he came to Hollywood”.. That was a few years ago lol
He seems like someone to whom appearences are very important. I think there are many sides to him. I do think he has in his mind there are girls to be friends with and he shows his fun quirky and affectionante side to them, and then there are girls that you f*uck, and he is different with then. More about trying to get them into bed than being himself. Some guys have a problem realizng you can be friends and lovers and they can’t seem to put the two together. The best relationships start with friends and then grow into more. At least in my experience. I want someone that I can laugh and talk to, after all the great sex of course
and in order of classiest to least~
1)Boz
2) Matty
3)Charmaine
4)randamay
wishes that Kate had done a bit of a tell all about how he treat her and their sex life, yeah I’m a nosy t1t ok? lol
I think that isn’t possible. He has said in interviews that he lost his virginity at 14. If he was into the London club scene as he has said, that is all about who you take home for the night. I think he had a certain naievte about him, but from the looks of him lately Hollywood has sucked that out of him,. He looks jaded and cynical and pretty rough.
even in just the last year its changed so much. Did anyone compare the Kids Choice Awards from last year to this year? Almost lookslike a complete different person. He was adorable and sweet looking at the 2007 ones.
Now?
Actually when he was asked at a press junket for ET he was told the “losing his virginity at 14″ he was shocked and said that wasnt true. But no not a virgin IMO no way no how!
wow jared loves orli
Bloody pidgeons! I just moved to a big city and those things are everywhere!
“…which appeared to startle him.”
LOL
I don’t know him, but I know myself, and I have the tendency to adapt different styles and attitudes depending who I’m spending time with. Heck, I even catch myself using catchphrases of my friends and even my accent gets similar to those I often chat with!
BTW when everyone said “why is he in LA when he always said he loved London more”, one of my ideas was that he is working on an American accent. After all, that’s one of the things he was criticised (is that the correct spelling?) for in Elizabethtown.
@Jaded/39; lol I’m for that but like others said temptation isn’t easy to sway. Especially when you’re harmlessly watching Men In Trees and suddenly she pops on up a commercial.
@65; I know what you mean. I too wonder which is him and which is the PR machine molding him into who people want him to be. FWIW I hope it’s the goofy/charming guy who we first met during LOTR; that’s what made me a fan in the first place.
Can I just say I love that the pigeon got his own photo haha.
AAAWWWHHHH HE IS SOOO CUTE HE NEEDS LOTS OF LOVE FROM ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
