Catch the adorable moments from Orlando Bloom's tribute to Katy Perry at the VMAs—it's not just love, it's a comedic roast!

The 2024 MTV Video Music Awards just took a turn for the adorable as Orlando Bloom paid the sweetest tribute to his partner, Katy Perry. As Katy received the prestigious Video Vanguard Award, which is given to artists for a lifetime of achievement, Orlando took to the stage to share his personal sentiments about her. Eyes smiling bright, he introduced her using her given name, Katheryn Hudson, reminding the audience that behind the global superstar is a beautiful human being that he fell in love with. "You know her as a global superstar… I know her as Katheryn," he said, eliciting laughs and heartfelt reactions both in the venue and from viewers at home.

Katy had a few witty words up her sleeve as well. Right after accepting her award, she cheekily thanked Orlando for ‘doing the dishes’ and not taking himself too seriously. This playful banter is a glimpse of their relationship that not only thrives on love but also on humor. As Katy took a moment to acknowledge the critics she faces, her ability to turn the night into a celebration of both her musical journey and personal bonds was simply inspiring—talk about slaying on stage with style and sass!

Adding a sprinkle more charm to the evening, Katy shared a fun tidbit about their daughter, Daisy Dove Bloom, who at just four years old has quite the personality and looks reminiscent of Eloise from the classic children's books—complete with wild blonde locks! Katy, always the loving mom, can’t help but beam with pride as she shares how Daisy embodies the spirit of adventure and whimsy, showing that creativity runs in the family.

Orlando’s reactions during Katy's performance were worth a thousand words, as fans noted him beaming with joy and admiration. Many took to social media to express how Orlando’s support during her performance was not just a display of love, but a genuine cheerleader moment. His proud face and twinkling eyes made it clear that behind every superstar, there’s a partner who inspires them.

In case you didn't know, the Video Vanguard Award has been handed out since 1984 and recognizes musicians who have made a significant impact on culture. Previous winners include legends like Madonna, David Bowie, and Beyoncé—so Katy Perry now joins an elite crew. Interestingly, Orlando Bloom is also quite the romantic—in 2010, he revealed he fell head over heels for Katy after a simple bike ride and a friendly chat.
