Orlando Bloom Online

Orlando "Legolas" Bloom, Elijah "Frodo" Wood, Billy "Pippin" Boyd et Dominic "Merry" Monaghan ont tous particip� � la course de baignoires des c�l�brit�s.

Les baignoires �taient plut�t difficiles � manoeuvrer et la course a rapidement d�g�n�r� en �preuve de natation. Elijah semblait �tre le nageur le plus faible alors que toute id�e de camaraderie �tait abandonn�e, les bagnoires ont �t� prises d'assault dans le style abordage de pirates et les participants ont fini � la nage.

Les acteurs ont pos� pour des photos avec les fans et ont sembl� s'amuser �norm�ment. Orlando a r�clam� la victoire mais Elijah pensait que Dominic avait obtenu la m�daille d'or.

It seems the Hobbits had a day of rest today, Sunday Feb 27th, and spent their hard earned time at a Wellington water-front fun day. They were competing in the celebrity bath-race...yes, they were paddling bath-tubs on the water, racing against each other.

Orlando Bloom was the winner of the race, but it seems that they were all enjoying their day off, mingling with the crowds and getting wet. It was interesting to note that when asked by a TV One news reporter about how filming was coming along, Elijah Wood commented that they had seen about the first 20mins of the movie (spliced together) and that it was looking really good so far.

The three 'Hobbits' are about the same height, Orlando Bloom seemed to tower over them. Also of note was that Orlando Bloom (Legolas) was sporting a 'Mohawk' hairstyle...Really! I hope he is wearing a hair-piece for his part, it would look a little strange in the film!

Les stars du "Seigneur des Anneaux" seront � la Bathtub Race de Wellington dimanche prochain. Elijah Wood, qui est Frodon le Hobbit dans le film de 360 millions de dollars r�alis� par Peter Jackson, participera � la course de baignoires des c�l�brit�s lors du Wellington Dragon Boat Festival. Les autres stars du Seigneur des Anneaux qui disputeront la course seront Dominic Monaghan et Billy Boyd, qui jouent les hobbits Merry et Pippin, et Orlando Bloom, qui interpr�te l'Elfe Legolas.

Les participants et les spectateurs devront payer $5, le montant ira � la Ronald McDonald House. La course dans le port de Wellington se tiendra entre midi et 13 heures. Annette Cullen, la directrice du festival, a dit que la meilleure place pour regarder serait � c�t� du hangar 6, derri�re le Queens Wharf Events Centre. "Nous sommes tr�s honor�s que les stars du film aient accept� de participer". Parmi les autres participants c�l�bres, il y aura l'�quipe de netball des Capital Shakers.
