Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry might seem like your ordinary Hollywood power couple, but trust us—they’re far from it. Their relationship has funny moments and some seriously unique quirks.
From their awkwardly hilarious first meeting to their shared love for all things unconventional, these two know how to keep things intriguing. Why does Perry call Bloom a nickname so funny that it’ll make you laugh out loud? Or what’s going on with their oddly similar-looking dogs? And seriously, why were they hanging out with the Pope?
If you think you’ve got them figured out, think again. Dive in to encounter all the heartwarming details about their one-of-a-kind love story.
1. Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry’s love story began over a burger
Katy PerryandOrlando Bloom‘s love story started abruptly over a stolen burger. It was the Golden Globes afterparty in 2016, and Perry had just ordered a stack of In-N-Out burgers for herself and her friends.
Not even sitting at her table, Bloom swooped in and grasped one. Perry wasn’t about to let it slide.“Hey, that’s my burger!”she told him (viaPEOPLE). From there, the sparks flew.
Interestingly, Bloom admitted later that he wasn’t very acquainted with Perry’s music when they first met. He told The Times (viaOK! Magazine) that he knew she was famous but wasn’t fully aware of her artistic achievements. That’s funny, considering she was one of the biggest pop stars on the planet at the time!
2. Katy Perry kicked things off with the first move
Katy Perry isn’t one to sit back and wait. At that same Golden Globes party, she decided to up the ante with a dance-off. According toUS Magazine,“Katy literally dropped to the floor and was waving her booty around, beckoning Orlando.”
It worked. By the end of the night, the two were indivisible. Pictures from the event show them laughing, chatting, and hitting it off. Just a few weeks later, they were spotted together on multiple occasions. Perry’s bold move paid off.
3. Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry share a deep love for Japan
If there’s one place the couple can’t get enough of, it’s Japan. The couple has visited the country several times and even celebrated New Year’s there.
Perry once shared a funny moment from their trip to Sanrio Puroland, where they rode Hello Kitty-themed rides. Bloom also surprised her with a trip to Tokyo Disneyland for one of their anniversaries.

The two love immersing themselves in Japanese culture, and it’s clear the country holds a special place in their hearts. Who wouldn’t want to ring in the new year with Hello Kitty, after all?
4. Katy Perry’s hilarious nickname for Orlando Bloom
Like most couples, the two have pet names for each other. But Perry’s nickname for Bloom takes the cake—it’s “Bubbadoo.” Yes, you read that right. The songstress even dedicated a song to him during herWitnesstour. Before performingInto Me You See,she told the crowd it was about feeling loved and seen. Perry then revealed the nickname, leaving fans both amused and curious.
To make it even sweeter, she’s been spotted wearing a bracelet engraved with the word “Bubbadoo.” It’s not your typical “babe” or “honey,” but it’s uniquely theirs.
5. Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry’s dogs look surprisingly alike
Here’s a fun fact: both Perry and Bloom have tiny, brown teacup poodles that look almost identical. Perry’s dog is named Nugget, and Bloom’s is Mighty. During their brief breakup, fans thought Bloom was walking Perry’s dog when paparazzi photos surfaced. It turns out that it was just his own look-alike pup, Mighty.
The couple often shares pictures of their furry friends, and it’s clear their dogs play a big part in their lives. Nugget and Mighty might just be the cutest members of their family.
6. Katy Perry once admitted Orlando Bloom wasn’t her favorite boyfriend
In a hilariously awkward moment, Katy Perry was once asked to rank her ex-boyfriends during a livestream. James Corden, always one to stir the pot, pushed her to reveal who was the best (viaPage Six).
Perry tried to dodge the question by naming Josh Groban as“The One That Got Away,”even admitting the song was about him. But when pressed further, she ranked Diplo third, Bloom second, and John Mayer first. Plus, we’re pretty sure being her fiancé and the father of her child makes up for it!
7. Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry’s romance had a divine intervention
Most couples go on dinner dates or vacations, but Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom? They met the Pope. The couple traveled to Vatican City in 2018 for the Unite to Cure conference, where Perry spoke about the benefits of meditation.

Bloom tagged along, and the two even got to meet Pope Francis. Dressed in all-black formal wear, the couple looked like royalty. Perry later posted about the experience onInstagram.
8. Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry love rocking matching outfits
If there’s one thing Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom love, it’s harmonizing their outfits. Over the years, they’ve been spotted in matching Disney socks, green formalwear, and even Santa and Mrs. Claus costumes.
One of their most striking looks was during a visit to the LA Children’s Hospital, where they dressed up as Santa and Mrs. Claus to spread holiday cheer. It’s not just adorable—it’s heartwarming.
9. Orlando Bloom proposed to Katy Perry on Valentine’s Day
Orlando Bloom pulled out all the stops for his proposal to Katy Perry. On Valentine’s Day 2019, he took her on a romantic dinner date (as Perry shared during an appearance onJimmy Kimmel Live). Perry thought they were headed to see some art afterward, but instead, Bloom whisked her away in a helicopter.
They landed on a rooftop in Los Angeles, where her family and friends were waiting to celebrate. Bloom even asked Perry’s parents for their blessing beforehand.
10. Katy Perry shines as both a great mom and stepmom
In 2020, the duo welcomed their daughter, Daisy Dove Bloom. But Perry isn’t just a great mom to Daisy—she’s also an amazing stepmom to Bloom’s son, Flynn.
Flynn, whose mom is Bloom’s ex-wife, Miranda Kerr, seems to have a great relationship with Perry. She’s even accompanied him to birthday parties and family events.
According toElle, Kerr once called their family dynamic “unique,” and it’s clear that everyone involved puts the kids first. Perry’s ability to juggle her pop star career and family life is nothing short of outstanding.
