The photo of Orlando Bloom, Katy Perry and Kim Kardashian at a charity dinner quickly caught the internet’s attention
Katy Perry has given her two cents on the viral image of her, Kim Kardashian and Orlando Bloom – and she was very blunt about it.
It’s been an eventful few days for the singer after having recently taken home the MTV Video Music Award’s (VMAs) prestigious Vanguard Award last night (September 11) – and shocking Taylor Swift with her on-stage kiss with rapper Doechii.
Of course, her fiancé Orlando Bloom was there to support her – with his own reaction to her VMA’s performance also going viral online – however, this isn’t the first time the couple have blown up on the internet this week.
And this time, it involves Kim Kardashian.
Bloom and Perry, as well as Kardashian, were in attendance at the Kering Foundation’s Caring for Women dinner during the Ready-to-Wear Fashion Week at The Pool, in New York City.
The event on Monday (September 9) rose around $2 million to help tackle gender-based violence.
However, a photo of the trio ended up going viral after people were quick to point that the angle made it look as if the Lord of The Rings star was checking out Kardashian’s behind – all while the ‘Teenage Dream’ singer looked on ahead.
And it wasn’t long before it was brought to the attention of Perry herself.
While on the Elvis Duran Show on Tuesday (September 10), she was asked by host Elvis Duran about whether she had seen the ‘clickbait’ picture of her fiancé ‘staring at [Kardashian’s] butt’, adding: “I mean, how could you not?”
To which the American Idol star bluntly replied: “I approve.”
She then followed up by saying: “So wait, what’s the controversy?”
To which Duran stated: “There is no controversy, that’s my whole point.”
Perry then quipped: “Oh, great. Count that click honey!”
It seems that the dad-of-two has gotten away unscathed – although Perry is seemingly not someone to mince her words as she recently made an X-rated confession about how she shows her appreciation for a clean kitchen and the dishes being done.

She said on the Call Her Daddy podcast: “If I come downstairs and the kitchen is clean, and you’ve done it all, and you’ve done all the dishes, and you’ve closed all the pantry doors, you better be ready to get your d**k sucked.”
Bloom himself later responded to his fiancée’s comments – simply writing: “I’ve cleaned the house.”
Probably with haste, too.
The pair first met in 2016 before calling it quits a year later. In 2018, Bloom and Perry rekindled their relationship and later got engaged in 2019. They also share daughter Daisy Dove, 4, who was born in 2020.
