Orlando has had a tumultuous time when it comes to Hollywood hook-ups. He was on/off with actress Kate Bosworth for four years and has recently been linked to Penelope Cruz.

However, the British 30-year-old - who stars this summer in the third Pirates Of The Caribbean movie - admits that for those in the public eye, it’s even harder.

"There are complications in relationships between men and women," he tells the latest issue of Elle magazine. "There always will be. But there’s also the celebrity aspect of it. It’s like you travel so much and it feels like the options are endless. People think getting a new partner is like getting a new cat."

Keep an eye on the tabloids to see if Orlando decides to get another pet any time soon.

Orlando building ’green’ house in London - Feb 23 2007
British actor Orlando Bloom says he’s building a house in London with the environment in mind.

"It’s as green as I can make it," the star said from a pre-Oscar party in Los Angeles, which was raising funds for the environmental organisation Global Green USA and its efforts to combat global climate change.

"It’s got solar panels on the roof, energy efficient light bulbs -- newer technology basically that is environmentally friendly," he said after arriving at the event in a plug-in hybrid vehicle.

Not everyone can live a totally green lifestyle, Orlando said, but they could start by unplugging their mobile phone chargers or turning off their TV when not in use.

"It doesn’t have to be overwhelming, there are simple things we can do," he said.

The event also drew celebrities such as Penelope Cruz, Chevy Chase, and James Blunt. It kicked off a campaign to shuttle celebrities to Oscar-related events in environmentally friendly cars.

Orlando tight-lipped about Kate - Sept 25, 2020
Orlando Bloom is still refusing to confirm or deny rumours he has split up with longtime on/off girlfriend Kate Bosworth. At the Los Angeles premiere of his new film Haven, he was whisked away at the first sign of personal questions.

And now he tells People magazine: "People always ask me whether [we’re] together or not. It’s still nobody’s business."

The twenty-nine-year-old actor also admits that he doesn’t mind being called a Hollywood hunk.

"That doesn’t bother me," he reveals. "Name any of my heroes and they were hotties. Brando was a pin-up, so was James Dean, Paul Newman."

He also adds, laughing: "They’re very loyal fans, those teenage girls, I definitely appreciate them!"

The star has been busy shooting the final instalment in the Pirates Of The Caribbean saga, but is looking forward to new challenges.

"I’ve loved working on Pirates," he says. "But I’m looking forward to new projects. When you do a movie that’s so successful, people think that’s all you’ve done."
