ORLANDO SMASHED HIS BLACK TOYOTA OR SEOMTHING INTO THE BACK OF MY BOYFRIEND MARK XXXXX’S PORSCHE CAYENNE WHICH WAS PARKED RIGHT INFRONT OF OUR APT. POLICE AND PAPARAZZI ALL OVER IT. THINK HIS GIRLFRIEND WAS INJURED - WHISKED OFF TO HOSPITAL STAT. I DID TAKE A PHOTO ONCE THE ALL COMOTION WAS GONE - TO AVOID LOOKING LIKE A STAR STALKER.

And then I have to ask myself... (removed) is Orlando Bloom doing driving a Matrix? Injuries? Law suite?Sure, not like the man who caused the accident is made out of money or anything... live it up!

real story my (removed)...i love how everyone believes the news so much..all they do is ask a police officer or make a couple of phone calls...to find out by then the "proper information to give out at the time after they were advised what to say"....then the other news people end up just copying from the original reporter even if they didnt hear it themselves.....by the pic it doesnt look minor enough from an fire/ems point of view to be called "minor accident"..im sure that if there was a head lacertation...whoever went to the hospital was boarded and collared "fully immobilzed"...because any injury to the head, neck, or shoulder area usually requieres that the patient be fully immobilzed as precaution.....and of course everyone in LA has connections...celebs get away with murder dont you think that they can get away with driving dui or driving unsafe in the first place..IMO if he was driving the speed limit....he would of been able to avoid hitting the parked car....unless somehow i see enother pic and they explain further how he was supposedly "cut off by another driver" that my opinon...lol

IMO...THIS is the closest to the real story as we will get....LOL POST #132 http://perezhilton.com/?p=7026LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Orlando Bloom was involved in a minor car crash early Friday morning while being tailed by paparazzi photographers, police said.Bloom, 30, the star of “Pirates of the Caribbean” and “The Lord of the Rings,” was driving in Los Angeles at about 2:15 a.m. with two female passengers when a vehicle came up close to him, making a sudden lane change, police said.“This caused Bloom to swerve and he hit two parked cars,” said a police spokeswoman.Bloom and his two passengers were taken to a nearby hospital. The actor, who tested clear of alcohol and drugs, was not injured.“He believed he was being followed by paparazzi, and the car near to him was paparazzi,” said the spokeswoman.A 30-year-old female passenger who was in the front seat suffered a cut on her neck while the 35-year-old backseat passenger suffered a neck fracture, police said.There was minor damage to Bloom’s car and the parked

I'd respect him more if it was a Vibe, but nobody's perfect. Look at Whelan.

Maybe I'm missing the point. What is he doing driving a 2003 Matrix when in the past 5-6 years he has been in some of the biggest movies ever made? Yes, the matrix is a good car right along with the Vibe, but if I was him, I would be driving something a little bit nicer like maybe a flashy foreign sports car or a nice gas guzzling American SUV.Just an opinion....

ya, just because you're rich doesnt mean that you have to spend it all on flashy cars. Especially if you are happy with the one you have. Maybe he's down to earth -- or it was the girls car, she was just too trashed to drive. Who knows.

I just saw the other day that he got off from this... something about paparazzi was following him, and an oncoming car crossed the center line, so he swerved out of the way, and ended up hitting the parked cars... (yeah right...)You know if I tried to say something like that they would just throw me in jail for being an idiot.
