Orlando Bloom's bizarre daily routine includes drinking 'brain oil' and Buddhist chants at baby

Orlando Bloom has been widely mocked for detailing his daily routine, and it really does prove that celebrities live on another planet.

The Pirates of the Caribbean actor's rituals include drinking what he called "brain oil", doing Buddhist chants with his six-month-old daughter Daisy and building Lego sets to stay creative.

His interview has been called "cringe" on Twitter, with some even asking if it is actually a "spoof".

Orlando, 44, said he follows a strict routine, which he claimed is typical of his star sign, Capricorn.

He starts his day at half six in the morning and the first thing he does is check his sleep tracker to see if he's had a good night's rest.

He then goes to check on baby Daisy, letting his fiancée Katy Perry sleep in.

The film star said: "I'll do eye-gazing with her and sing songs, 'Daddy loves his Daisy Dove', so she knows who Daddy is."

Orlando chants for 20 minutes a day and then reads some Buddhist teachings, which he'll then share on his Instagram stories.

He said he likes to "earn" his breakfast, saying: "I'll just have some green powders that I mix with brain octane oil, a collagen powder for my hair and nails, and some protein."

Then at 9am, after he's done his hike, he'll have his proper breakfast, which usually consists of porridge, hazelnut milk, cinnamon, vanilla paste, hazelnuts, goji berries and vegan protein powder, which he washes down with a cup of PG Tips.

Orlando says he is mostly vegan but will have red meat maybe once a month.

"I sometimes look at a cow and think, that’s the most beautiful thing ever," he admitted.

If his 10-year-old son Flynn, who he shares with his ex-wife Miranda Kerr, is staying he'll do his breakfast before school.

Then he'll have a shower and get dressed, but there's no lockdown-loungewear as he likes to make an effort with his appearance.

He then focuses on doing some work, and says he hopes his upcoming projects will give a voice to women and minorities.

For lunch he'll have vegetables or a stew, but sometimes he has a team of people to cook for him.

After that he'll have Zoom meetings and read through scripts.

During his down time he likes to build Lego or cars, because it makes him feel "creative" and like he's achieved something with his day.

He puts the baby to bed and then has dinner and in the evening he'll wind down by watching a movie or a documentary.

Orlando said he likes to have eight hours sleep to set him up for the day ahead.

After the interview was released, it was mocked on social media.

One person tweeted: "Orlando Bloom's early-morning routine. Another one for the 'Oh do f**k off' folder."

"Genuinely thought the Orlando Bloom interview in The Sunday Times was a spoof," another posted.

A third wrote: "Wondering why Orlando Bloom was trending and reading this level of cringe has put me right off my brain oil and chants for the day."

The Mirror has contacted reps for Orlando Bloom for comment.
