Orlando Bloom is no match for Katy Perry when it comes to boasting rights.
In a pickleball match she played on Monday in Santa Barbara, California, to raise money for her Firework Foundation, the singer, 38, said she ‘absolutely beat’ the actor, 46.
Taking to her Instagram, Perry posted a video of the event and wrote alongside, “My mom brought (maybe even forced) her love for pickleball upon our family, and now we’ve decided to use those pickle powers for good.”
“Yesterday @fireworkfoundation had our inaugural Light Up The Court pickleball tournament in Santa Barbara to raise money for scholarships, more camps, and programming to bring the arts to kids from underserved communities! (And not to brag, but I totally beat @OrlandoBloom in front of everyone too),” she continued.
The American Idol judge continued by expressing gratitude to everyone who participated in the competition, sponsored it, and made donations to the foundation, which she and her sister Angela Hudson established to “give [the youth] a place where they can be a kid again.”
“You’ve all helped ignite the light in some amazing kids. See you next year!,” she concluded her caption.
Perry and Bloom may be seen engaging in competitive matchups with their playing partners in the tournament video. Then, after celebrating with her team, Perry gives Bloom a kiss of consolation.
With a white Firework Foundation T-shirt, a green skort, a white visor, and green and white knee-high socks, the Roar singer was appropriately attired for the day’s activities.
