Boy Crazy!
We're not obsessed. Really we're not. Okay, maybe we are!
Hottie of the Month: Orlando Bloom
Where you've seen him: Sporting a bow and arrow as an elf in the
Lord of the Rings trilogy; swashbuckling through Pirates.
He didn't mind being an elf: "I got to dress up in funny clothes and
run around New Zealand with a bow and arrow. How bad could that be?
But now I've got all these great skills that are completey useless
in everyday life. Like the bow and arrow. What am I going to do with
that, walking down the street?"
His Acting Hero: "Johnny Depp's been a guideline for me as a young
actor, and probably anyone from my generation would say the same
thing."
Number of tattoos he has: Two. There's a sun on his abs, which he
got when he was 15 years old, and the Elvish word for nine on his
right forearm -- the cast of LOTR all got the same one at the same
time.
He's soooo dateable! "I'm probably a good boyfriend, but I'm pretty
intense. When you're with me, it's exciting, fun, and very intense.
At the same time, I'm easygoing. But that all depends on the girl
I'm with."
And (sigh!) he's in love with love: "When you start falling for
somebody, and you can't stop thinking about when you're going to see
them again, I love that," he says. "Women are beautiful. They
deserve to be cherished and respected." And, he adds, "They're a
handful."
