Orlando Bloom shocked onlookers when he reportedly refused to walk down the red carpet at a star-studded premiere in London.

The heartthrob actor - who was at the opening of Cirque du Soleil Alegria at the Royal Albert Hall - is also said to have got angry when photographers tried to snap him with girlfriend Kate Bosworth.

According to a report in Britain's News of the World newspaper, the actor also stayed in a private room at the after-show bash.

When he decided to dance, Orlando allegedly demanded everyone else was cleared from the floor.

Last month, the handsome star fuelled speculation he is set to marry Kate after he was spotted having lunch with her father.

Orlando took the screen beauty's dad to the Square Cafe, in Massachusetts, near Kate's hometown of Cohasset.

According to onlookers, the pair were engrossed in conversation throughout their meal.

A source said at the time: "The pair were having a quiet chat while eating a spot of lunch. Unfortunately, no one could hear what they were saying."
