Breaking:Katy Perry Jokes Aging Filter ‘Doesn’t Work on Elves or Pirates’ as She Tries Out Effect with Orlando Bloom
Perry gave herself wrinkles in the Instagram clip, but her fiancé Bloom looked exactly the same.
Katy Perry is poking fun at Orlando Bloom’s apparent inability to age.
On Tuesday, July 30, Perry, 39, used an aging filter in an Instagram clip featuring her fiancé Bloom, 47.
However, despite the filter giving the “Roar” hitmaker wrinkles and making her look older, adding 50 years to her appearance, it didn’t have any effect on Bloom.
Throughout the video, Perry looked more concerned, before she and Bloom shared a kiss and she smiled for the camera as the year 2074 flashed up on the screen.
“guess the filter doesn’t work on elves or pirates. sad 😞,” Perry captioned the post, referencing Bloom’s Lord of the Rings character Legolas and Will Turner, whom he played in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise.
Perry — who was previously made to look older by the prosthetics team working on her music video for her 2010 song “The One That Got Away” — had her upcoming single “Lifetimes” playing in the background of the post.
During a recent album listening event, Perry revealed her latest song is inspired by her and Bloom’s daughter Daisy Dove, 3½.
“It is funny how sometimes you’re looking for your soulmate in a partner. It could be a dog, your mum, your best friend, your cat … but for me it came in the form of Daisy,” the hitmaker said, per The Sun, adding, “I wrote ‘Lifetimes’ about her.”
“Every night, before we go to sleep, I say, ‘I love you’, and then I ask, ‘Will you find me in every lifetime?’ and she says, ‘Yes,’ ” Perry added per the outlet, suggesting what influenced the title of the track.
“The love I was missing, every mountain I climbed looking for this view, all this love, it came to me when she entered my life,” the former American Idol judge shared of her mini-me.
“Lifetimes” — featured on Perry’s upcoming album 143 — will be released on Aug. 9. The album will then follow on Sept. 20.
During a conversation with Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1 earlier this month, Perry revealed the heartfelt meaning behind the album’s title.
