Orlando Bloom Poses With Actress Dressed as Katy Perry in Viral Halloween Photos

The viral Halloween images drew online backlash, with outlets noting no confirmed relationship or representative comment.

Overview

  • Actress Rachel Lynn Matthews wore a blue spacesuit and black wig referencing Katy Perry’s April Blue Origin flight and recreated the “kissing the ground” moment with the caption “Take up space!”
  • Photos posted to Matthews’ Instagram Stories show Bloom in a skeleton costume with his arm around her at a Los Angeles Halloween party, and the images were widely reposted on Reddit and X.
  • Social-media reactions ranged from calling the photos “disrespectful” or “tasteless” to suggesting the pair may have simply crossed paths at the same event.
  • Multiple outlets reported dating rumors linking Bloom, 48, and Matthews, 32, yet neither has confirmed a relationship and representatives did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
  • The episode follows Bloom and Perry’s July confirmation that they shifted to co-parenting their daughter, as coverage also notes Perry’s new single “Bandaids” and her being linked to Justin Trudeau.
