Orlando Bloom was seen celebrating Halloween with a notable companion.
Like many stars on October 31, Bloom embraced the Halloween spirit, opting for a skeleton-themed outfit complete with face paint and a bodysuit layered with shorts.
He attended the Halloween bash hosted by Vas J Morgan and Michael Braun, an event that drew celebrities such as Camila Cabello, Winnie Harlow, Emma Roberts, and Lily Allen.
Rachel Lynn Matthews, known for her roles in films like Upgraded, Do Revenge, and Happy Death Day, was among the attendees.
Her costume choice was none other than Katy Perry during her 11-minute Blue Origin space trip.
Matthews shared a photo posing with Bloom on her Instagram Story that night.
This image stirred up controversy online, with some labeling the duo as ‘petty’.
“There’s petty, then there’s this,” remarked one individual. Another critic wrote: “That’s so tacky and cruel… they [Perry and Bloom] have a child together.”
However, not everyone was offended by the Halloween snapshot, and many came to the defense of the actors.
One person commented on Twitter: “I don’t think it’s weird – they’re just having fun.”
Another user found humor in the situation, stating: “Wait i’m sorry this is hilarious.”
LADbible Group has reached out to representatives for Matthews and Bloom for their remarks.
In another image posted to Matthews’ story that evening, she appeared to jest about Perry by mimicking her gesture of kissing the ground following her brief stint as an astronaut.
This perceived jab from Bloom follows the debut of Perry’s introspective track ‘Bandaids’, which reflects on a failed relationship and is speculated to be about her nine-year involvement with the The Lord of the Rings actor.
Lyrics from the song include: “Hand to God, I promised, I tried. There’s no stone left unturned. It’s not what you did, it’s what you didn’t. You were there, but you weren’t.”
In a heartfelt Instagram post following the release of ‘Bandaids’, Perry revealed her hesitations about sharing the song.
She expressed: “Thank you for the love on bandaids… tbh I struggled for months with the idea of putting this song out… even after all these years it can be scary to be vulnerable… but hopefully the lyrics of this song resonate with someone going through what I have been through and maybe they won’t feel so alone and will find the strength to keep going like I have.”
