Orlando Bloom’s pet pooch, Biggie Smalls, is one lucky dog. He not only has one of Hollywood’s best actors wrapped around his finger but also has actor Dakota Johnson as his “babysitter,” although temporarily. Biggie Smalls was recently seen resting in Johnson’s arms when Bloom was giving an interview on Today. And before anyone knew, the pup hogged the limelight and upstaged the actor with his little barks and adorable look.
Orlando Bloom’s dog rests in Dakota Johnson’s arms in interview video
Orlando Bloom recently visited TODAY’s studio on June 9 to talk about his new movies — Prime Video comedy “Deep Cover” and drama, “The Cut” with Savannah Guthrie. And the actor was not alone. He bought his fur baby, Biggie Smalls, on the sets.
While talking about the films, their conversation was interrupted when Biggie Smalls started barking off-screen. Soon after, Bloom introduced his teacup poodle to the camera, who was resting in Dakota Johnson’s arms on a couch. The actor appeared on the show to talk about her upcoming film, “Materialists,” alongside co-star Chris Evans.
Looking at Biggie Smalls’s reaction, Bloom joked that the pup was “looking for attention.” Even Guthrie chimed in and said that the pooch “has found a new owner.” The “Pirates of the Caribbean” star continued saying that his brown pup “would never bark” and “keeps quiet as a mouse.” But maybe the pooch is “having separation anxiety” looking at his “Dad” on the other side.
And looking at Johnson’s gesture, Bloom quipped that she is “stealing the dog.” However, when the actor bought Biggie Smalls over to Bloom, Johnson said, “I’m just the babysitter. I’m just the nanny.”
Bloom eventually revealed that Biggie Smalls is his “emotional support animal.” The interview then continued with the actor with the pup “really enjoying his moment” in front of the camera. And when Craig Melvin asked Johnson about what happened with Biggie Smalls behind the camera during their segment, she replied, “It’s just what I do. I’m here for the people.”
