Orlando Bloom is a Motorcycle Man
Orlando Bloom throws on his leather jacket and mounts a custom motorcycle before zooming down a street in Sydney, Australia on Wednesday.
Orly, 31, was spotted picking and choosing between a number of different custom motorcycles at Sydney’s bike store Deus Ex Machina.
Mr. Bloom is in town with his main squeeze, Australian ‘Victoria’s Secret’ angel Miranda Kerr.

No, I don’t have an IMDb account and I haven’t opened one in the new forum. I glanced around the new forum but I don’t really feel the need to join right now. I don’t post any where else but here, but if another pap fest is coming, or another slew of insiders comes along, or the board goes ditzo bashing particular members of other boards, past and present, I’m staying away indefinitely. I noticed the new forum already has a thread started for bashing an exfan named Carmen or someone like that. I’m so over posters focusing on other posters and hating on them or bashing them. How are we supposed to have a good online conversation under those circumstances? I’m not telling other posters what to do or what to post, but creating threads just to attack this person or that person? That’s not cool in my opinion.
But I’ll think about joining maybe later this summer. Right now, I’m so disappointed in Orlando and this latest turn of events, I just have to walk away from this topic and from JJ for a while. I’m really disappointed. No point in trying to sugar coat it or hide it.
Goodnight All. Don’t know when I’ll check in again, but by and large, you guys have been all right in my book. Even the smurfs had their moments. ;)

what does everyone think of that picture where he is talking in her ear? It looks like she is wincing or something.
Don’t forget the story of Rebecca Romijn and John Stamos. He admitted he had to keep the appearance of his marriage alive until after his moive was promoted.
Same here.
I wonder what she told DJ about this? I bet they would feel cheated if she lied to them and wasn’t going to be getting any more press off of this.If they did make a deal maybe it was our fault for assuming the time period was over.
I know tonight sucks since we weren’t expecting it but I still don’t think it means it says it’s all legit now.
that Orlando can’t find any better or do any better because the kind of women *we* might like to see him with just aren’t interested in him once they talk to him or really get to know him. Does any of that make sense? I’m not trying to bash him. I’m just putting my speculations out there for other people to think about and add to.
I have had a sinking supcision for quite a while that he is more interested in looking cool and having the right kind of girl on his arm rather than someone he would actually have to emotionally connect with. I think he is basically a shallow self involved person. He is very pretty, and we want people with pretty faces to reflect that in their character. I think he finds the RIGHT cause to be involved with, the RIGHT women to date, the RIGHT spots to be seen at, and it is all just superficial stuff. I think he has always used his looks to get what he wanted and it mostly works, until he finds someone who wants more than just a party guy with a pretty face. He will likely end up with someone like Miranda if not her, they will have a 2 maybe 3 year marriage because neither one of them are able to think about anything but themselves, and then their will be a messy divorce, until it all starts over again., I can see him at 50 with a 20 year old model. I am pretty much done with him, and that is my choice. Maybe I will see his movies if they sound interesting, but I will not go just casue he is in them.
Yeah im thinking about leaving here on jj for awhile to. This event really dissapoints. It just dosent make sense anymore, if this is the kind of life and woman that satisfies him then so be it I guess, it wont make me like Kerr, I already know what type of person she is and I thought never in a million years Orlando would be with a person like this never, at of all the woman he has been linked to since the beggining of his career this relationship is the worst.
Maybe this time in his life will change they are both 2 different poeple who want different thing in life (now that Miranda has her DJ deal and her book coming out she wants fame and money but orlando already acheived that) maybe when he goes to shoot TRC he would change. I always thought this time in his life is just like Johnny’s time when he was in his early 30’s, when he used to date Kate moss, they dated for a few years but nothing serious, then after braeking up with Kate johnny found Vanessa look where he is at now 10 years of a real relationship.
I read that when poeple date and start a new relationship they are in a stage called the honeymoon stage which is where the couple calls eachother all the time kiss, hug the peroson in their eyes can do nothing wrong, etc, but after about a year or two that attraction goes away becuase their is no good communitcation envolve just physical appeal which dosent make for a long lasting romance.
I just think he will change once and for all but after this it might be a while, we might have to be stuck with her for some more time, imo I cant even stand to look at her face. This could be publcity for her book thats coming out this summer.
Its true it could just be a honeymoon period, and then once he sees who the kind of person she is… we will see.
I see you guys are staying true to form.
Going ’round in circles trying to explain the fact that they are still together after all of the claims from “insiders”. Can you not understand that he apparently, really likes the girl? It’s not a “showmance”, and it may not be love, but they are certainly dating. And no, neither one of them needs to give a rat’s azz about how a few disgruntled “fans” feel. He is entitled to date whomever he pleases, and evidently he pleases to date her. Get over it. If you hate the fact that they are together so much, ignore them.
And for those who want him to get back to work instead of dating her, what makes you think that he can’t do both? Being involved in a serious relationship with Kate for nearly four years didn’t stop him from working, and neither will this relationship. Circumstances have delayed his work, not Miranda. He’s a big boy (if the rumours are true) and he can take care of himself.
As for her dress, I think that she looks great. Very sexy. Much classier than Kate’s pitiful attempt to look sexy when she was showing off her tiny little breasts in that red monstrosity. Miranda could have used a bit of double sided tape for the dancing, since she had a slight wardrobe malfunction, but otherwise it is a very elegant dress. I know the prudes will hate it, but I don’t. Orlando appeared pleased with it as well.
And people keep talking about how they wish his family would step in. How do you know that his family doesn’t approve of her? Wishful thinking on your parts is all.
He looks happy in these pictures. I think it’s great.
Ok It was good talking with you guys. Sorry we are all dissapionted. Maybe if we leave this alone Things will get better. We all have to go on with our lives. You never things can change and I dont know about you I still have hope. Till things chnage im not comming back.
By anywho, FrFro,Grace,Gevw, anonymous, till now farewell.
wow. oh wow.
I was so happy for him when I saw the first pictures and the others came…….
Doesnt this tramp sell bra’s ? Perhaps she should think of investing some that money that got her on the forbes list into buying one.
What a dissapointment this guy has turned out to be. Funny though, a couple of years ago when people were mocking KB for whatever reason I never suspected she’d be the one doing serious work and.. well… and him being the tabloid celebrity. I was so hoping this guy would prove people wrong. Prove the old stereotype wrong that ‘ ‘if youre that pretty that you must be were you because of that, and not youre talent.’ ‘
There are only two conclusions I can come to here, and that is that we were all grossely wrong, and he is in love with her and cares for her (no matter how much of a shallow, spoiled, self-centered girl she is -which to me says great deal about his character) Or that he’s a fame hungry user who likes the attention, does photo-set ups with panty models to look cool and bangs them on the side.
I find both options to be revolting, and as much as I hate to say after putting some hope into the guy becoming more than that, I am frankly, embarrased to have done so……….
Yeah it’s kinda funny how when his career fisrt took off he seemed to be a guy with a true sense of self, he wasnt in it for the money or fame and he really loved his job and didnt want to become a big headed celebrity he wanted to be an actor. He came a long way since then, a real long way, he went from hard working and truthful actor, to pap set ups and tabloid bs in a few years. Deep down inside of me I still have a shred of hope for him that he will get oever this mess. I just cant see this girl be his one and only maybe one and only right now but not forever.
For KB it’s funny she is the one who is the actor with a decint career and a none useing boyfriend, she turns out to be the suttle one. She is the one with diginity and self repsect. Who would ever think she would be the one with all the succese. Maybe hollywood did get to his head I mean he did go out parting everysince he and kate broke up in late 2006 until september of 2007. He isnt the man we first saw in the good early days now as I just hate to say it he seems to be a total seel out.
I respect it if that’s your decision but it didn’t others say there would be
more to follow?
It doesn’t mean the name of the game has changed just that it isn’t over yet.
I wouldn’t be too proud of Kate if I were you.
She and her model boyfriend pose for the paps at the opening of an envelope. Subtle she ain’t.
I dont know this game seems to be the same game that looks like Johnny depp’s. He dated a model for a few years and they broke up then he met french actress singer vanessa paradis and he looks better than he did with kate any day, maybe he would wake up like johnny did and relise all the fake poeple in life wont benifit you.

I’m sorta done hoping/whishing/believing that it was all fake. I”m starting to think that is what I wanted to think. He looks pretty smitten in those pictures, and I happen to have the belief that people tend to go for/love/date people they look up to or in some aspect want to be like. I also find that Miranda’s character (or lack of it) is pathetic and words come to mind that this thread will blog out so I wont even bother. Anyway…..that has been/is MY opinion, trash it if you like but I find it has proven to me to have been right 99% of the time and so I am sticking with it.
@1885
Oh I aint proud of kate, dont worry. I’m no fan of hers and am well aware of her posing with her BF etc etc, the point I was trying to make was that at least besides that, she is also giving people other thing to talk about- like say her movies.
@?
yeah but from I gatherd was that johnny was dating cheap classless models and not actually becoming one. Honestly, (I used to avoid saying this, however I could care less these days) some people need to stop comparing the two. Its insulting to johnny who does seem to take his proffesion and relationship seriously, and I think its clear that OB doesnt give a sh!t, he sure as heck didnt think his advice was worth following -cause that he aint done.
I am taking a nice long break from this thread and the fandom etc etc. The reason I used to like him was that I liked his movies, and I liked his “personality” (or at least what was sold)
His actions over the course of the year have made it quite clear to me that he either doesnt have one or it sucks. I dont like his personality, not JUST for dating someone like Miranda, but call it more the final drop if you like. Besides not liking him anymore, its not like he’s made any movies lately, so I can hardly use that as an excuse for being a fan as well. I’m just running out of reason to like the guy, thats all.
I’m sorry if I have offended any people here who are still fans, I was just stating my observations, interpretations and opinions.
Johnny did a lot of things in years past that probably would have shocked you at the time, but I do agree that people should stop comparing the two.
I think your assesment of the situation is clouded by the fact that you have a perception of this chick that may not be 100% true. Does she like fame, clearly. Is that her only quality, no and you don’t know her. Maybe she has other qualities that he likes and he was willing to wait out the publicity frenzy to get to that. Also, you dont know him and maybe what you “bought” wasn’t really what he was selling and you set yourself up for disappointment. He’s just a flawed human being like anyone else.
You are totally entitled to your opinion and if you aren’t a fan anymore then yes by all means move on cause there will always be other actors. But perhaps in the future keep in mind that no body lives up to expectations and pressures people put on celebrities. At the end of the day they are gonna screw up, they are gonna make mistakes, they are gonna do a lot of things that you don’t agree with because you never, EVER know who they really are. If anything WE set up that fall to be a really high one
You don’t think that Orlando takes his profession seriously? Why then, did he take a smaller role on the stage to hone his craft? Why is he stepping away from epic, period pieces? Why did he take a break to collect himself before going back in front of the cameras?
And you need to stop idolizing Johnny. He isn’t a God, and when he was around Orlando’s age, he was quite a hellraiser. he is much older than Orlando, with a couple of kids. That settled him down when nothing else would. Johnny has said before that he is the last person to be giving out advice. Johnny had been arrested a couple of times before he was Orlando’s age.
As for his personality, well I’m going to go with the opinions of people who have actually worked with him, and not base my opinion on the assuptions made by people on the net. Everyone, and I mean everyone, says that he is a great guy. Yes, Miranda had a big mouth at first, but that’s all we know. We can assume that she cheated on Jay, but we don’t know that as a fact. For all we know, Miranda may be a wonderful person and that is why they are still together.
Leave the fandom if you want, and don’t let the door hit you on the way out. If you don’t leave now, you will leave eventually. Maybe when Orlando combs his hair the wrong way, and you are so disappointed in him you just have to leave. You thought he was better than to part his hair on the left. Celebrities aren’t perfect. They are human. I just happen to like the humanity in Orlando. As someone said above, he looks happy. He’s smiling. I think that’s great. And I don’t care who made him smile like that, as long as they keep doing it.
When he can go to her events he doesn’t but whenever she can join him she does.
But I am also dissapointed like most of you guys but that’s his life and right now I do believe it is not a showmance or not only this. Someone here mentioned that she came unnoticed just to the party and that’s truth. She just came to support him.
I hope, as FroFro said, they will stay private about this relationship because it’s always more worthy than selling the stories of when/who/what etc
Don’t be upset. Stayed tuned. I promise more to follow.
What you think you saw these last two months was all true.
Don’t let Mirnada think she won this. She reads here as does her
whole family all the time. Yes, I totally suspect some of those post are hers and wouldn’t be taken back if Padme was a friend of hers. If she is so bothered by it you can’t think she wouldn’t try and resolve it for her own reputation.
If it was just a normal wonderful thing between them why the need to post about it?
As I said last time believe it or not. I am hoping to talk to the Sydney friend in the morning. Those post on the other friends in the beginning
really did have people who knew her well. You weren’t wrong in what you saw.
OR they are trying not to be so obvious this time around.
@ 1891 he looks happy at the event? IN what event? I have never believed that looking sat/tired means that he was unhappy in his private life but he doesnt’ look really happy in the event. He is smiling with Kevin Spacey and I think amused by something Miranda said as he looks like he’s going to laugh at something, and that’s all. He doesn’t look particularily happy.
Another stupid insider. Whenthe paps catch them again, she will be all “I told you so”. Well, now that the paps know that she is with him in London, they will be on the hunt. Claiming insider info on that now is like saying “the sun will rise tomorrow” and then “see I told you so, I’m a insider”.
Maybe you and Cara should hang out together.
Smiling, laughing, sparkley eyes, yeah, doesn’t look happy at all.
@1897 sparkley what?? Well I am not going to study a photo like a fool now but he doesn’t look that happy as for example with Kate Bosworth and Cate Blanchet at the Geneva Event. He looked really happy there.
If you mean me and not Padme I meant more information to follow, not pics. I have no idea if they will do more of a show again or not.
I don’t know if Padme was a real insider, I said I wouldn’t be taken back since she did say it ahead of time and get it right.
I only meant I am waiting to post more of what i was told. I am going to ask if I can post the actual emails or if she will come back and post again. Of course, even with that no one is obligated to change their mind and they can be viewed with critical eyes.The day of the races was the same thing, people thought it was the end that he must be really into her. It was just one more day of the show and other pieces came together. That’s all I’m trying to say.
I’m not really worried about anyone believing me personally. My motive is I don’t want to see Miranda get away with being the person she is.
I do agree that the insider situation has gone nuts but in the beginning some of the original friends/ex friends were real.
The ones that told things before it happened and the ones that gave very specific information.
I’m off for tonight.
I think the difference is that this was not their event. They’ve gone to charity functions together before, like the Unicef event in NY. But her events in Sydney, and the bra and perfume launches were work related. She was on the clock, and having Orlando there would have been a distraction. Not only for her, but for the media covering the event as well. I’m sure that when Orlando is promoting his next movie, or talking to the press about his trip to the Arctic with Bast, Miranda will be nowhere to be seen.
This was a fun event for them, not work.
