ORLANDO BLOOM
WHERE YOU'VE SEEN HIM:
Kicking booty on the high seas in this summer's
Pirates of the Caribbean and, of course, as the lovely blond Legolas in the Lord of
the Rings movies.
WHY WE PICKED HIM:
His black curly hair for starters. That, combined with
his boyish just-want-to-squeeze-him-he's-so-hot grin totally does it for us.
ORLANDO'S GOT A CRUSH:
The Canterbury, England, native has lately been
snuggling up with Kate Bosworth, the star of last year's surfer-chick movie Blue
Crush. Some British gossip pages reported that she even ditched a cast part in
London so she could hang with her man. Like we blame her.
OUT THERE, BUT SURELY IN A GOOD WAY:
Orlando's a total day-dreamer. "I
remember I had this teacher once who said to me, 'You know, you just can't live in
the clouds,'" the 26-year-old tells us. "I was like, Why not?" Hey, we love
a guy with an imagination.
BACK FOR SECONDS, AND THIRDS, AND...
Get ready to start spending a lot of
time in movie theaters. With quite a few Orlando movies set to come out over the
next year (Ned Kelly, The Calcium Kid, Lord of the Rings: The Return of the
King, and Troy with Brad Pitt), that awesome face is going to be everywhere.
Yay.
