Orlando Bloom issued 5-word response after Katy Perry made oral sex confession about him
Charlotte A.
Orlando Bloom may have accidentally discovered the secret to a happy relationship back in 2024 and apparently it involved doing the dishes.
The actor, now 49, left fans invested after issuing a five-word response to an X-rated confession made by then-fiancée Katy Perry during an appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast.
Speaking to host Alex Cooper, the 'I Kissed a Girl' singer revealed that acts of service were her ultimate love language, explaining that Bloom helping around the house was far more appealing than any expensive gifts.
"If I come downstairs and the kitchen is clean, and you've done it all, all the dishes, closed the pantry doors, you better be ready to get your d**k sucked," Perry joked.
The singer doubled down moments later, adding: "I don't need a red Ferrari. I can buy a red Ferrari. Just do the f**king dishes."
Bloom didn't let the comments go unanswered.
Commenting underneath Perry's Instagram post promoting the podcast episode, the Pirates of the Caribbean star simply wrote: "I've cleaned the whole house."
The response quickly went viral, racking up thousands of likes and earning praise from fans who appreciated the actor's sense of humour.
At the time, Perry and Bloom were one of Hollywood's most talked-about couples.
The pair first met at a Golden Globes afterparty in 2016 before getting engaged on Valentine's Day in 2019. They welcomed daughter Daisy Dove in August 2020 and frequently spoke about the work they had put into maintaining their relationship.
During the same podcast interview, Perry revealed that the couple had previously spent a year apart before reconnecting.
She explained that Bloom had attended the Hoffman Institute, a personal development programme designed to help participants work through unhealthy behavioural patterns and emotional habits.
Perry later attended herself.
"I got the tools and spoke the same language," she said. "It changed my life."
After nearly a decade together, Perry and Bloom confirmed their split in 2025, though the former couple continue to co-parent their daughter. Perry has since moved on to a new romance with Justin Trudeau, the former Prime Minister of Canada.
Still, while the romance may be over, Bloom's five-word response remains one of the internet's favourite celebrity relationship moments.
And if nothing else, it probably encouraged a few people to finally load the dishwasher.
