Orlando Bloom's Morning Ritual: Fans Divided Over Viral Video!
BOMBSHELL! Orlando Bloom's Chanting Video Exposed After Split from Katy Perry
The drama is heating up in Hollywood, folks! Just when we thought the news of Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry's split couldn't get any juicier, a viral video has resurfaced showing the Lord of the Rings star meditating and chanting like a pro. But what's got everyone talking is not just his spiritual practice, but also the cheeky comments from social media users who are having a field day at Orlando's expense.
The video, which appears to be from last year, shows Orlando sitting cross-legged on the living room floor, shirtless and looking every bit the yogi he is. As he intones the Japanese devotional phrase "Namu Myōhō Renge Kyō," a mantra from the Nichiren branch of Buddhism meant to erase bad karma and assist in the quest for enlightenment, viewers can't help but crack jokes.
"Katy Perry may have lost her man, but she gained silence every morning," quipped one social media user on Instagram. Others chimed in with even more snarky comments: "That's what marrying Katy Perry did to him," and "LOL this is why I don't date super hot men. There's always something off."
But not everyone was laughing. While some fans of Orlando and Katy were quick to defend the actor, others took offense at the jokes, calling out the commenters for being "disrespectful" to Orlando's faith.
As it turns out, Orlando has been a practicing Buddhist since he was 16 years old, when he first heard the mantra from a painter who had become his mentor. The actor revealed on the Today show last year that he still chants every morning, and credits the practice with helping him navigate life's challenges.
"I chant 'Namu Myōhō Renge Kyō' to survive my life and everything that happens in life," Orlando explained. "Chanting helps me to navigate the nastiness."
But what really got our attention was Orlando's daily routine, which he shared with The Scholary Note last year. It seems that the actor is a bit of a health nut, and spends his mornings meditating, chanting, and fueling up with green powders, brain octane oil, collagen powder, and protein.
As for his diet, Orlando revealed that he's 90% plant-based, but loves to indulge in a good steak every now and then. "I look at a cow and think, that's the most beautiful thing ever," he gushed.
Now that we know more about Orlando's spiritual practice, it's clear that he's not just a pretty face (although, let's be real, that helps too). But what do you think - is Orlando's chanting a sign of his inner peace, or just a desperate attempt to calm down after nine years with Katy Perry?
The comments are coming in hot, and we can't wait to see how this drama unfolds. Stay tuned for more updates on the Scholary Note!
