Orlando Bloom vs. Katy Perry: Love or Space?
KATY PERRY'S SPACE ODYSSEY LEADS TO LOVE LIFE IMPLOSION!
The sun may have set on Katy Perry's astronomical adventure, but her love life has just taken a catastrophic nosedive! The "Firework" songstress and Orlando Bloom, her beau of over six years, are at war - and it's not because they're arguing about who gets to control the remote. No, this is much bigger than that!
The sparks flew when Perry took an 11-minute trip to space in April, courtesy of Blue Origin (and her BFF Lauren Sánchez, no less!). But things got seriously hot when she started hogging the camera, sporting a daisy in zero gravity, and then... well, let's just say it was a rather awkward kiss-the-ground goodnight on touchdown. Yeah, that didn't exactly go over like gangbusters with Bloom, who happened to be watching from Earth.
Sources close to Perry claim that when she showed up on the other side of the galaxy looking all sorts of spaced-out (pun intended), Bloom basically blew her off, calling the whole ordeal "embarrassing" and "cringeworthy." Ouch! The singer was reportedly left feeling hurt and humiliated, especially since this was a major milestone moment for her - after all, it's not every day you get to kiss the Earth goodbye!
Now, as if things weren't already rocky enough between the couple, the talk has turned to who gets to attend Jeff Bezos' and Lauren Sánchez's star-studded wedding extravaganza in Venice, Italy (June 24th, anyone?). And let's just say that Bloom is on the list - but Perry? Not so much. According to TMZ, she's got prior commitments... or should we say, prior priorities?
"It's not about the tour," a source in Perry's camp reveals to The Scholarly Note. "It's about how Orlando is choosing to go to this wedding, knowing that Katy feels like they're really her friends more than his." Yep, you heard that right - Katy's got some major beef with Bloom over this one!
But wait, there's more! It seems that Bloom's been less-than-supportive of Perry's career moves lately. In fact, sources claim he advised against the poorly-performing album 143 (which, let's be real, was a bit of an intergalactic disaster), and now he's allegedly urging her to scrap the entire Lifetimes world tour. Talk about a major red flag!
And if that weren't enough, Perry's been sharing some seriously sizzling snaps of Bloom on social media - topless, no less! It's like she's trying to make up for lost time... or maybe just leverage their romance amid the backlash? Whatever the case, insiders close to the couple reveal that Bloom is getting increasingly frustrated with Perry's refusal to listen to his advice.
"Orlando wants Katy to be herself," a source spills. "He fell in love with her and who she is inside, but this past year has brought out the worst in her." So, will these two lovebirds survive this rough patch? Only time (and maybe a little bit of space travel) will tell!
