I AM A PERVY ELF FANICER! Orlando Bloom is just too fine for words!
Right after the sucess of the fellowship, I saw him walking down Kings Road, London, talking on his mobile. Well there I stood unable to move, thinking is that really him....so I watched him walk away and he must of thought I was deranged because he looked back to find me,a grown woman, stood in the middle of a busy path, getting knocked by people trying to get by, with my mouth open, staring at him.
I seemed to be the one of the few to notice him, prehaps it was because his face was not that familiar but now he gets mobbed everywhere he goes.
I did read once that he recieves hate mail form Tolkein purists which is equalled by the adoration of fans dressed up like hobbits, Gandalf and the like, as they think or want him to be, Legolas. In fact when he was interviewed by the Daily Mail recently for the POTC film at his home in London and the journalist met all assorted Shire Folk camping outside his house, but he takes it all in good humour.
I have not seen the new POTC film yet, as we thought we would see it when we are on holiday as I need my hot buttered popcorn fix, as they only have cold sugar popcorn over here, and it is just not good enough, now I am addicted! , hopefully it is still showing at the DTD cinema.
If there are any interesting articles from here about him that don't cross over the pond, I will post them for you all.
Cheers!
