Orlando Bloom Sings to Daughter Daisy So That Her First Word Will Be 'Dad'

Orlando Bloom is revealing a surprising motivation behind the songs he sings to his daughter!

The 44-year-old actor said in an appearance on The Graham Norton Show that he often sings to his six-month-old daughter Daisy Dove, whom he shares with fiancee Katy Perry, in an effort to influence her first words!

“I sing anything that has ‘daddy’ in it, just because I want her to say dad before she says anything else,” Orlando said.

Comedian Aisling Bea asked, “Does the baby go like, ‘well can you put Katy Perry on?’”

“Yeah she’s like ‘Mom’s going to be much better at this than you,’” the Carnival Row actor replied.

“Alexa, play mommy,” host Graham Norton joked.

Orlando added that his attempts to get Daisy to say “dad” first have been somewhat successful.

“She sort of has said a bit of ‘dada,’ ” he shared. “Every time I come up she’s very excited to see me.”

Orlando and Katy welcomed Daisy in August. She is Orlando‘s second child, who is also the dad to 10-year-old Flynn with ex-wife Miranda Kerr.
