Orlando Bloom has once again found himself at the center of online discussion after being photographed leaving a late-night party alongside makeup artist and influencer Meredith Duxbury — and fans immediately noticed one striking detail.
The 49-year-old actor was spotted exiting a Met Gala afterparty in New York during the early morning hours with the 27-year-old beauty creator by his side. But it wasn’t just the unexpected appearance together that grabbed attention. Social media quickly exploded with comments about Meredith’s uncanny resemblance to Bloom’s former wife, Katy Perry.
The pair reportedly left the event together around sunrise following one of fashion’s biggest nights. Paparazzi waiting outside captured the moment instantly, and the images quickly spread online as people began comparing Meredith and Katy almost immediately.
For the evening, the “Lord of the Rings” star kept things simple and understated. Orlando wore a relaxed dark outfit finished with a black baseball cap, choosing comfort over flashy fashion after the glamorous Met Gala celebrations.
Meredith, however, fully embraced the spotlight. The influencer appeared in a fitted lace dress that highlighted her figure and gave the entire look a dramatic edge. Her glamorous makeup, featuring bold eyes and noticeably lightened brows, became another major talking point online.
Stylists completed her look with loose flowing hair, which only intensified comparisons to Katy Perry. Many online users admitted they had to look twice at the photos, with some saying the resemblance between the two women was almost shocking.
While Orlando Bloom remains one of Hollywood’s most recognizable actors, Meredith Duxbury has built an impressive celebrity status of her own through social media. More than 1.7 million followers keep up with her beauty tutorials and makeup content online, turning her into one of the fastest-growing names in the beauty industry.
Her influence has already earned her major recognition beyond social media fame. Meredith was previously included in Forbes’ prestigious “30 Under 30” list, solidifying her reputation as both a successful entrepreneur and one of the most influential young beauty creators online today.
Neither Orlando nor Meredith publicly commented on the photos, but the images alone were enough to ignite intense reactions across celebrity gossip pages and fan communities within hours.
