Katy Perry has made it clear that there's no drama between her and fiancé Orlando Bloom following the viral photo of him seemingly checking out Kim Kardashian during a recent New York Fashion Week event. The incident, which took place at the Kering Caring for Women Dinner, sparked a flurry of online chatter, but Perry's reaction was nothing short of understanding and humorous.
During an appearance on the "Elvis Duran Show," Perry was directly asked about the image that quickly made its rounds on social media. In the photo, Bloom is seen standing behind Perry, his gaze apparently directed at Kardashian, who was dressed in a form-fitting white Balenciaga dress that accentuated her curves. The image, taken on September 9, captured the "Pirates of the Caribbean" star's momentary glance, leading to a wave of speculation and memes.
When host Elvis Duran brought up the photo during the interview, he defended Bloom's seemingly innocent glance, quipping, "I mean, how could you not?" Perry, unfazed by the situation, laughed it off, replying, "I approve." She went on to jokingly ask, "So wait, what's the controversy?" before adding with a smirk, "Oh great. Count that click, honey."
The light-hearted exchange continued as Duran read parts of an article describing the viral moment. Perry interjected humorously when the article mentioned Bloom's hand positioning, quipping, "It's been other places. Sorry to tell you." The singer's relaxed attitude about the situation highlights the couple's secure and playful relationship, which has been in the public eye since they first started dating in 2016.
Perry and Bloom, who share a four-year-old daughter named Daisy, have always been candid about their relationship. In a recent interview on the "Call Her Daddy" podcast, Perry discussed the couple's commitment to personal growth and their approach to maintaining a healthy partnership. She emphasized that their relationship is built on mutual support and continuous effort to evolve together, stating, "We want to evolve-that's why we're in our relationship, to become better humans so we can raise this beautiful human being."
The couple's candidness about their relationship challenges and triumphs has endeared them to fans. Perry revealed that they have attended couples counseling to work through difficulties, noting that it's an ongoing process. "Sometimes we get stuck," she admitted. "But we're gonna do it. And we find the next level. That's why we're continuing in the relationship."
This isn't the first time Perry has taken a viral moment in stride. Known for her ability to handle public scrutiny with humor and grace, the "Firework" singer has often deflected drama with wit and confidence. Her response to the viral photo of Bloom and Kardashian is just the latest example of how she navigates the spotlight.
Perry's relationship with Bloom has been the subject of much media attention, particularly after her recent podcast appearance where she shared some intimate details about their life together. Among the more headline-grabbing revelations was her playful confession that she rewards Bloom with oral sex for doing household chores-a comment that quickly went viral.
The couple, who got engaged in February 2019 after several years of dating, have shown that they can weather the ups and downs of public life together. Perry was previously married to comedian Russell Brand, while Bloom was married to model Miranda Kerr, with whom he shares a 13-year-old son, Flynn. Both have spoken about the lessons they've learned from their past relationships, and how those experiences have shaped their current partnership.
