Katy Perry, Orlando Bloom end their nine year relationship
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have called off their relationship. A source confirmed to PEOPLE that the couple, who got engaged in 2019, have decided to part ways. TMZ was the first to report the news.
Perry, 40, and Bloom, 48, first met in 2016 at a Golden Globes afterparty -- over a shared love for In-N-Out burgers. According to People, Katy, while recalling the moment during an episode of American Idol, said, 'I met my boyfriend over In-N-Out. We were at the Golden Globes, and we weren't together.'
'So I had my security guard grab 10 In-N-Outs, and all of a sudden I see my boyfriend's hand, he wasn't even sitting at our table. he just swoops in and grabs it. I was like, 'Hey, that's my burger!'.'
Later that year, the couple went public with their romance after attending the Cannes Film Festival and sharing their first photo on Instagram. However, their relationship has had its ups and downs.
In February 2017, the couple announced they had broken up but stayed on good terms during an appearance on Call Her Daddy. 'We're friends, it's good,' Bloom said of his split with Perry in April 2017.
'We're all grown up. She happens to be someone who is very visible, but I don't think anybody cares about what I'm up to. Nor should they. It's between us. It's better to set an example for kids and show that [breakups] don't have to be about hate.'

The two reunited in 2018 but reportedly chose not to label their relationship at first. A source told PEOPLE back then, 'They are not girlfriend and boyfriend. They do seem very happy together, though. Orlando always had the nicest things to say about Katy. He loves spending time with her.' Later that year, they made their red carpet debut at the Gala for the Global Ocean in Monaco.

Katy Perry shares heartwarming pictures amid the spilt from Orlando Bloom
Katy Perry shared joyful pictures from Australia following her split from Orlando Bloom , giving fans a glimpse into her peaceful post-breakup mood. After her recent split from Orlando Bloom, Katy Perry is keeping things fun and light. On Friday, June 27, the singer posted a happy photo update from her Lifetimes Tour stop in Australia on Instagram. Perry posted images of herself having fun on Rottnest Island in Western Australia along with the caption, "Mood: Quokka," referring to the friendly marsupials that live there. Her latest update comes just days after US Weekly reported that Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have called off their engagement after nearly being together for a decade. Despite the personal change, Perry's post seems to reflect a calm and playful state of mind. In the Instagram photo-dump, Perry looked content and at ease. She picked up a quokka-themed chocolate treat from a nearby grocery store, rode over picturesque trails, and posed next to a quokka. However, a unique picture of her 4-year-old daughter, Daisy Dove, whom she shares with Bloom, was the high point for viewers. In the cute picture, Daisy is seen helping in steering the boat, as she is dressed in a peach coloured cardigan. Although Perry was not in front of the camera at the time, the posted photo offered fans a charming look into her post-divorce motherhood experience. Although the couple has separated, their focus remains on their daughter. Another insider told the above-stated portal, 'They are still very much in touch and coparenting Daisy together. Orlando brought Daisy to meet Katy on tour before heading to the Bezos' wedding. It's not messy between them. They aren't making drastic changes for Daisy's sake.' Perry and Bloom have agreed to prioritize stability and consistency for their children. Bloom also shares son Flynn, 14, with his ex-wife Miranda Kerr. Perry has previously spoken about her relationship journey with Bloom. On the Call Her Daddy podcast in September 2024, she shared, 'We weren't really in it from day one. He was, in a way, because he had just done a time of celibacy, and he had set intentions. I was fresh out of a relationship, and I was just like, 'I can't do this anymore. I need to swim in a different pond.''

Wicked auditions: Who tried out for the film before Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo were cast?
Wicked stars Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo may now be etched into fans' minds as Glinda and Elphaba, but they weren't the only names in the running. The film adaptation of Wicked has been years in the making, and before director Jon M. Chu locked in his final cast, a long list of celebrities - from pop singers to seasoned stage stars - gave it a shot. According to a report by People, the road to Oz saw some surprising names auditioning for roles but they didn't make the cut. Even Ariana Grande herself once considered Elphaba instead of Glinda. While filming The Dropout, Amanda Seyfried made time on weekends to audition for Glinda. 'I literally bent over backwards while playing the hardest role of my life,' she told Backstage in 2022. The Descendants star revealed in multiple interviews that she had long dreamt of playing Glinda. Renée Rapp, who stars in Mean Girls, auditioned for Glinda but had no hard feelings. 'Ariana's gonna be f------ amazing,' she said during Watch What Happens Live! in 2022. The Penguin actress, who also has a Grammy for Once, attempted Elphaba's iconic high note-but admitted on The Tonight Show in 2024 that she missed it during the audition. The Color Purple actor said in a 2024 YouTube video that Elphaba's story mirrored her own experiences growing up. She praised Erivo, calling her casting 'stellar.' Nick Jonas revealed on the Armchair Expert podcast that he auditioned for Fiyero-alongside his brother Joe. 'We both auditioned for the same role,' he said. Joe Jonas also confirmed he was in the running for Fiyero, supporting his brother during the process. 'It has to be one of us,' he remembered saying. A former Broadway Fiyero, McCartan said on his podcast The Stage Door in 2024, 'Jon M. Chu, you didn't cast me… but no hard feelings.' Sutherland got a 'double callback' for Fiyero and admitted on the Zach Sang Show in 2023 that he didn't expect to go that far. While she now stars as Glinda, Grande originally auditioned for Elphaba too. But it was her role as Glinda that won over the director. Erivo, who ultimately landed Elphaba, didn't need to fight hard once she auditioned-director Jon M. Chu said there was 'no denying it' when she walked in. While not part of the audition chaos, Bailey ultimately won the role of Fiyero, beating out several singers and actors who had vied for the part. Amanda Seyfried, Dove Cameron, and Renée Rapp all auditioned for Glinda but were not cast. No, Taylor Swift did not audition for the Wicked movie. Yes, Ariana Grande auditioned for both Glinda and Elphaba before landing the role of Glinda.
