Billy Boyd's food poisoning ruined Orlando Bloom's date

Actor Billy Boyd once ruined Orlando Bloom's chances with a girl because he had food poisoning.

Their co-star Dominic Monaghan revealed the story while at Comic Con in San Diego and told what happened when the two stars were sharing a room while filming Lord of the Rings.

According to The Sun newspaper, Monaghan, who went on the trip with Boyd, said: "We decided to rent a kayak for the day and go paddling over to this island with a restaurant on it. There's this dish which is raw shrimp in chilli oil, super hot, so we order it.

"He got the s**** as soon as we got back on the boat. He ran to his room when we returned to the hotel.

"Billy puts the key in the door, runs into the toilet and is like: 'Arghhh, oohhh, eurgghhh'. Poor Orlando's date left pretty quickly after that."
