KATIE Perry has fawned over her partner in a recent online comment.
The American Idol judge reposted a video of Orlando Bloom, 46, on Instagram, and couldn’t resist adding a gushing comment.
In the video, Orlando and a fellow actor strutted their stuff in designer menswear while attending Cannes Film Festival.
The Lord of the Rings star wore a sleek pale suit with green and blue accents, along with platform beige shoes.
He showed off his tanned chest by going topless beneath the loose-fitting outfit, and added a hint of coolness with classic black sunglasses.
Katy Perry reposted the video on her Stories, and exclaimed: “YAAAssss nooo shirttt hawwwt diggityyyy dawwwg @orlandobloom.”
Katy and Orlando have been dating since 2016, and briefly took some time apart in 2017 before ultimately getting engaged on Valentine’s Day in 2019.
And although they haven’t tied the knot yet, the partners did welcome a child, Daisy Dove Bloom, in August 2020.
FAMILY FIRST
An insider exclusively told The U.S. Sun that Katy is considering leaving American Idol in order to spend more time with her daughter.
The source said that the TV star had been “mulling over” her future for months and has spoken about her desire to grow her family, spend more time with Orlando, and continue her own musical career away from the show.

On the family front, the source claimed Katy spoke about wanting a “baby brother or sister” for Daisy.
Katy reportedly also “wants to rectify” her busy schedule taking time away from Orlando, as the source continued: “With both of them working so much on projects, time as a family is also very precious.”
They continued: “She’s spoken about wanting more sleep and feeling a lot more emotional than usual this season.”

Katy’s hesitation about joining American Idol’s next season may have a financial motivation, as her $30 million salary for American Idol, including the endorsement deals, is unlikely to be increased for the new season.
“The money she could earn from a few stadium gigs could eclipse the deal that ABC can offer,” the insider added.
TIME TO GO?
Katy has come under fire for her behavior toward contestants, with some fans even suggesting she should be replaced.
The musician recently appeared shocked when contestant Wé Ani became the last person picked for the top 12.
On Reddit, one critic said: “Katy was hands down rude from the face she made (that at first, I read as disbelief over Wé’s incredible performance), to go on and on about voting for your favorite contestant. It was incredibly unprofessional.”
Another added: “Wé was treated rudely. After her performance, instead of giving feedback, Katy reminds everyone how important it is to vote.
“Um. Hello. Can you give this poor girl her feedback first? Katy’s comment sounded like she was saying: ‘Jeez America, why’d you vote this girl through.’ So unprofessional and unfair.”
During the auditions rounds, Katy was previously accused of “mom-shaming” contestant Sara Beth Liebe with her “hurtful and “embarrassing” comments.
Fans theorized about suitable replacements for Katy after she stood back from the panel in order to attend the coronation of King Charles in London earlier this month.
Replacement judges Alanis Morrisette and Ed Sheeran were praised for their temporary judging duties, with some fans even suggesting they stay on the panel permanently.
“Best judges! @lukebryan @edsheeran @Alanis,” one person tweeted. “American Idol viewers are lucky today.”
One person also called Alanis a “great permanent choice.”
