God!!! She really has done her research hasnt she? You know I wouldnt be surprised if she has been a fangirl of his for all this time and knows everything there is to know- ooh Orli you said you would never date a fan! lol
Just becasue she is a model doesnt mean she couldnt be a fan of anyone right? She is still a human being lol
True, she could have been a ‘fan’ of Orlando’s while still with Jay, but Orlando was attending that VS fashion show in December ‘06, so he’s possibly a ‘fan’ of lingerie models. He flirts with them and finally got himself one! Guess it didn’t matter that she was already ‘taken.’
Completely agree with the people who say Miranda’s obviously done her homework on Orlando. From the solar powered house (which he supposedly has in or near London and bought back in 2003) to wanting kids and marriage within the next ten years (another almost direct quote she may have gotten from one of his past interviews), to going green suddenly, she’s got all the ‘right’ answers to all the unasked questions, doesn’t she?
That last time Orlando was getting pushed or rushed into marriage, he started issuing statements that he wasn’t ready and that marriage was a long way off. Shortly after, O/K ended. If Miranda keeps pushing, she’ll push herself right out the door.
@1702
Oh agreed 100%
But what is the betting that the “shippers” will say she has always had and wanted those things before him- its cos they are so well suited, or its a coincidence, no way in hell, some kate haters ahem MLF hated KB for her doing this!!
If any damage has been done regarding Orlando, I think it has to do with his *career choices*, as far as public perception goes - outside his fandom. I really don’t think the general public is all that impressed with him or curious about him anymore. I think he was a hot property right after the first couple LOTR films came out and the first Pirates film, but after Kindgom of Heaven and E-Town, things seemed to have cooled. If the general public doesn’t really care about an actor or movie star, then the kind of stuff we read here and comment on is kept within a small circle of people who follow it, as you said.
Finger’s crossed that Orlando comes up with some strong acting and a couple of good films soon to remind people that he’s still around and can compete with the ever growing talent pool in Hollywood. The clubs and dating models & actresses isn’t going to help his career in the long run. That’s fine for has-beens, not for actors who plan to stick around for a long time.
He isn’t working much and hasn’t been working steadily since last summer. I know he said he wanted a long vacation, and I know he’s worked his bum off for years, but right now, his celebrity appearances are not the best solution for lack of work, IMO. I hope he hasn’t burned himself out by age 31.
I think the man sold out years ago. Sorry, but that’s the conclusion I’ve reached. I really do believe he chose celebrity over real acting. That choice, and all the other choices that followed as a result, are probably more damaging to his career public wise than this Miranda Kerr thing. His fan base is one public element, but the general public is another, and their criteria for judging and favoring an actor goes beyond hotness and dating/mating status. He made critical mistakes in some of his career choices, and that’s going to affect him for a long time, IMO.
Girlfriends come and go. It’s his work as an actor that counts. I don’t think the general public is really impressed with his body of work right now, and that’s what’s going to hinder him.
#1702 here. I think it comes down to double standards and personal bias. When O/K dated, Kate was slammed hard for most or all of the pap shots and photo ops, while Orlando was believed to be basically innocent and reluctant to participate in them. Now, in retrospect, some things look different - at least to me. I try to focus on behavior rather than the person engaging in the behavior. If I don’t condone something, it doesn’t matter whether it’s person-X or person-Y doing it. It seems apparent to me that Orlando chose to participate with Kate in past PR and pap shots, and he’s chosen to go to hot celebrity clubs and go after actresses and models. So, he’s not that shy about publicity and getting exposure. Like others have said, I think he just wants those things on his own terms. I’m not saying it makes him a criminal, but I do think it’s one of those things that makes him human and imperfect and not the victim of Bosworth’s evil clutches that some of his fans believed him to be. Again, others have pointed out that he makes his own choices. This is about choices.
Maybe some of Orlando’s fans just want him to be with someone attractive and to be happy. I don’t know. Only Orlando can decide what he wants and what will make him happy. From my point of view, I can’t condone Miranda’s behavior when I didn’t condone Kate’s. Miranda’s doing the same thing - only sooner in the game and much more brazenly. It’s almost like she’s in a hurry or something.
i think only time will tell if some of the theories here are true but the last one about jay is the most funny don’t get me wrong i can see the oddity of the situation of his sister being her pr if same chick cheated on my brother i would kick her ass no doubt i would not work for her or talk about the girls affair with another man but do you see these people go that far i mean jay being fine about orlando and miranda having sex and orlando meeting her parents ?
I wasnt going to post again, because of the as*wipe pretending to be me in other threads, but I think some interesting points have been brought up about Jay, his sister, and how odd their “split” was. I read his comments of being so hurt, so in love, etc., etc., but in retrospect, his sister promoting the Bloom connection before, during, and after their split seems really VERY odd, in light of what has just been brought up. There isnt any proof that Bloom and Kerr are sexual. We dont see him touching her the same way he would touch and sometimes grope Kate in public. This very well could be just an arrangement for publicity for her that he agreed to. We saw him do it for Kate near the end of their relationship for Seasons of Dust. He said on Regis and Kelly that he was doing it to help her out. Maybe his “niceguyness” is just turning into one bad helpout after another. He needs to start saying NO if this is what he does for people.
Its interesting though to see some of the comments coming from self proclaimed non-Kate fans that Miranda is worse than they ever thought Kate was. I never really understood why Kate got so much crap, but then again, I never spent much time looking into the things she said and did. I can see however that Miranda is really OTT with some of her antics. As someone just recently posted, she seems in a rush to get in as much Orlando publicity as she can….as if there is some deadline she has to meet. All some very good comments in that regard, and yes, wouldnt that be interesting that by the official kickoff of her work for DJ coming up in August (Megans official departure I believe) her and Jay suddenly making amends. Hmmmm….
Aside from the occasional eejit ranting and raving in one direction or the other, there have been some very bright and well thought out comments on this thread. I have been a JJ critic in the past, but I think I would rather save my criticism post by post than as a whole. I still hate the anon posting style here though - LOL! I like to know who I’m discussing back and forth with.
Thanks for the definitions of “shipper(s)”. You learn something new everyday.
Welcome back! Thanks for another interesting post. Glad that you’re here, and if it’s any consolation, the faux-frofro was immediately called out as a fake by other posters because it was very obvious that s/he did not even come close to the intelligent reasoning seen in your posts.
One of the many strange pieces of this puzzle is Jay/Brent (what is his name anyway?) and his sister’s comments. I cannot imagine even joking about another guy being with one of my brothers’ girlfriends, much less doing so in a professional capacity. It’s just so disrespectful to him that those comments and implications would be read by the general public regardless of any of arrangements that may have been made behind the scenes. There have been a few theories floating along the way that he and Miranda would get back together after she secured a few contracts and this big PR blitz was over. Like many things, that remains to be seen, but your August timing makes a lot of sense, since that should coincide with Orlando spending the summer filming in Hong Kong (that is if The Red Circle ever gets confirmed).
There is a new thread and photos on OLove seems like the DJ bodyguard is really with him! lol
The girl has no class.
There’s an interview with Miranda on TodayTonight show, someone posted it over OLove. She definately doesn’t like to talk about her private life.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3vqUCsRkjE&feature=user
did anyone think we wouldn’t get pix today after what was said about Melbourne and her watching him? Conincidence? you decide.Did a poster yesterday say that they would drag him back to save face now asap?
Ellen, it doesn’t prove she doesn’t like to talk about it. She has just been told what a fool she looks like and she needs to shut it.
I thought Dad said he was going too?? Awe, did they have a falling out already? boohoo. J/K.
I haven’t watched the last two videos mentioned because I can’t stand her voice.
Can any of you brave sould that did answer this please:
1) In the first one what was meant by the joke that the dad wasn’t gushing about Orlando?
2)In the new one what is meant by her not wanting to talk private life? Is that a joke or does she try and pretend she never talks like that?
Someone on the bike thread said the bodyguard is wearing the same clothes from last friday’s lunch. What do you think?
The videos: I am so curious my nick should be Dead Cat, but I can’t bear her voice. It’s like having a bunch of Pokemon zigzagging inside my skull. Can anyone who’s immune to her voice give me a brief summary of her interview?
1)Father Kerr simply doesn’t sound thrilled. He’s asked something re: if Orlando will be joining the family and replies “well, we’ll see…whatever miranda decides.”
The other video: ellen said she was joking but she namedrops OB for no reason. She just mentions as she’s getting her makeup done the morning of the Race that “dad’s gone for a swim, dad and martin and orlando”. There’s also another part at the end where she’s trying to play coy, I can’t really make out what she’s being asked though, anyone else?
That was it. It’s a puff piece about how exTRAordinary she is.
Me and my sis just watch that vid. The first things out of her mouth is who is she and that doesn’t look like a real relationship she doesn’t follow this like I do .If she can pick that out I wonder who else can. I believe the people about jay cause if that was my brother i would beat her ass.I also think she is on a time limit I think some other people have said this too she is really pushing his name even more as of late.
yeah, wouldn’t that be funny if these were from Friday afternoon. Orlando is wearing the the same shoes but I can’t tell if the top is the same since he had a coat on. I think it was blue the other day.
Would be interesting. Maybe the guard is just like him and wears the same thing all the time so its not the same.
Or maybe Orlando has just got wise and knows to change his clothes- when he does this now. Nothing would shock me but either way we knew we would see him doing something. I guess she couldn’t get him to have sex in the public park to prove anything so this is the best she got.
When they leave you know she is going to try and fix the situation with the airport arrival so she probably had to promise not to go OTT if he poses at the airport when they depart.
Swimming? eh, anything from her mouth or the Daily Tellalie I wouldn’t even bother with.
Did she say what made her notice that-Miranda’s words or did she see pictures of them together?
JJ site has been doing strange things with logging on and posting. Has anyone else had the same problems?
@1717 She said it seems like she dragging him alone he keeps looking around like he doesn’t want to be there. It seems like she’s walking ahead he lagging behind and even in the interview where they tried to pretend she was naturally pretty. We both said did they get there when she first woke up because if they did it would have been a different story you can tell she had something or some kind of foundation on her face see how shiny.
Take a look at the lunch pictures from her site and olove and compare. On olove you can tell that Orlando is wearing the same jeans as well but the bodyguard is wearing exactly the same-even belt and shoes it looks like.
@1718lol. That’s why she had to say Orlando was swimming if he wasn’t there in the morning when the crew got there. He doesn’t strike me as a morning person, more of a night-owl. I’m surprised she just didn’t do the fake body pillows on the bed and say it was him. Shh, we have to be quiet, Orlando is sleeping still.
Interesting. Good call! It doesn’t have to mean everything but thats just another werid thing to add in the pile. Always little weird things, isn’t there?
It’s always possible the guard wore exactly the same thing to the bike place but you would think if he knew where they were going he would not have worn a nicer dress type shirt like that….unless it was after lunch?
If thats true than of course the plan is to release them when needed.
whoever asked about Orlando being around for her August debut that might not be the case. She has already hinted that the schedules might not work so that leads me to believe he isn’t committed to going to that. Since this trip was mentioned a month ago as already planned he was probably obligated to do this one. Let’s hope its the last.
Sorry, another questions for the people with strong ears and stomachs who watch her videos-(I admire your strenght! LOL)
I just read someplace that in the video he high fives a man next tohim after winning the race. I thought the DT said he high fived her.Which is it or is it both?
Did he high five her or another man after winning the race? I’ve heard two different stories. Sorry to ask again those with the stronger stomaches and ears who can listen to her.
Thanks
LOL-Sorry for the triple post. It first said the original one didnt go through and then it showed up. Whatever.
Both. There is a picture of the high five with her. Check on elflady (sorry it won’t let me post the link). Not sure what’s on video because like you, I don’t want my stomach or ears to bleed.
