The VMAs are officially over, but all anyone can talk about is that one cute moment on stage with Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry.
The couple, who got together in 2016 and welcomed a daughter in 2020, have been an item for eight years now.
The pair shared plenty of viral moments at the MTV Video Music Awards ceremony, whether it was Bloom’s reaction to Perry’s NSFW performance, or the Pirates of the Caribbean star calling his fiancée by her real name to fans’ bemusement.

Yep, fans were shocked after realising that Katy Perry was just her stage name, and Katheryn Hudson is her legal name.
Bloom said in his welcome speech for Perry: “Give it up for our newest Video Vanguard, Katheryn Hudson.”
He continued: “You fell in love with her as Katy Perry, I fell in love with her as Katheryn Hudson.
“You know her as a global superstar who brings love, light and her unique sense of humour into every song she writes and every music video she creates.
“I know her as a mother, as a partner who brings that same sense of love and joy to our family.”
But that’s not the only moment fans are talking about.
When Perry was handed the Video Vanguard Award on stage, she and Bloom shared an incredibly passionate smooch in front of shocked fans.
You can take a look below:
The kiss, which can only be described as ‘omg’ by many, left fans at home reeling.
They wrote that it was the kiss of the century and gushed over how sweet they are as a couple.
One person wrote: “Katy and Orlando’s kiss at the #VMAs was so adorable! Congrats to her on the Vanguard Award!”
Another said: “THATS KISSSS! ATE IT KATYY.”
Someone else commented: “That’s such a sweet moment! Congrats to Katy Perry on the Vanguard Award and to them both!”
Fans also took note of a sly reference in Katy Perry’s acceptance speech to an x-rated confession she made recently.

Perry said on stage: “Thank you to Orlando for keeping me grounded, celebrated and doing the dishes.”
It was an obvious callback to her comments on Call Her Daddy last week, where she said:
She said during an episode of her Workin’ On It podcast: “If I come downstairs and the kitchen is clean, and you’ve done all the dishes and closed all the pantry doors, you better be ready to get your d*** sucked.
“That is my love language!
“I don’t need a red Ferrari…I can buy a red Ferrari.
“Just do the f***ing dishes!
“I will suck your d***, it’s that easy.”
