Orlando Bloom’s girlfriend thinks he’s “too smelly”

Hollywood heartthrob Orlando Bloom has been told to step his personal hygiene — because his on-again, off-again girlfriend Miranda Kerr thinks he’s “too smelly”.
“Miranda thinks Orlando is too smelly,” says a source close to the couple. “Recently, she asked him if he could wash his clothes and perhaps shower more often.”
When the 31-year-old isn’t filming his latest Hollywood blockbuster, he “goes days without washing his clothes,” the source tells Star magazine. “He’ll wear the same jeans for a week before he throws them in the washer. Same goes for his sweaters, T-shirts and socks.”
And the ‘Pirates of The Caribbean’ star makes matter worse — by allowing his pet pooch Sidi sleep in his bed and slobber all over him.
Since Victoria’s Secret model Miranda, 24, told him to clean up his act, Orlando has been trying. But, says the source, he’s told friends “he doesn’t know if this relationship will last.”

New Film

We’ve not seen much of Orlando Bloom since the third Pirates movies and it seems he’s begun to like his quiet life. Instead of jumping back into a big blockbuster, Bloom has signed on to a small, independent movie.
Bloom is set to take a supporting role in An Education, a film by Lone Scherfig. Variety has described the film as ‘a coming-of-age’ film set in 1960s London. The film follows the story of newcomer Kate Mulligan as a 17-year-old who embarks on a romance with a 30-year-old high flyer.
