“I Wouldn’t Have Put Myself In That Position…” Orlando Bloom Opens Up About THAT Naked Paddle Board Pic

He thought he'd escaped the nosy paparazzi.

Last August, Orlando Bloom was snapped paddle-boarding in the nip with his then-girlfriend Katy Perry.

The actor has since admitted to ELLE UK that he would’ve kept his bits covered had he known people were watching.

“I wouldn’t have put myself in that position if I’d thought it would happen. I’ve been photographed a million times in a million different ways – I have a good radar. We’d been completely alone for five days – nothing around us – there was no way anyone could get anything.

“I had a moment of feeling free,” he added.

But where there’s a will there is always a way, and the paps quickly snapped this naked image of the 40-year-old – well, naked except for his hat.

“It was extremely surprising,” Orlando, who thought he’d escaped the nosy camera lens of the paparazzi while off the coast of Sardinia, admitted.

But you can’t date Katy Perry and expect to maintain your privacy, can you? Better to keep things covered next time, Orlando.
