Following the Justin Bieber and Orlando Bloom brawl, reports reveal that the "Baby" was said to be "very persistent" with the former Victoria's Secret Angel Miranda Kerr after the 2012 Victoria Secret show. Such persistence is reportedly the reason behind the punching incident that made the Australian supermodel "embarrassed."
According to Hollywood Life, 20-year-old Justin Bieber got very close with the Australian beauty during the 2012 Victoria Secret fashion show where he rendered a performance. The two was reportedly spotted at the backstage having a flirty hangout.
The mother-of-two and Selena Gomez's ex-boyfriend were partying all out until the early morning, a source of E! News said.
"He was very persistent," the source added, after confirming that the "Beauty and the Beat" singer tried reaching out to 31-year-old Miranda Kerr several times.
"But she didn't entertain his attempts at maintaining steady contact-they texted a bit here and there," he said.
Last week, Justin Bieber and Orlando Bloom brawl happened when they crossed paths in a restaurant in Ibiza where the "Boyfriend" singer threw remarks about "The Pirates of the Caribbean" actor's ex.
The singer was heard saying, "Say hi to Miranda for me" and "she was good."
Wanting to teach the pop brat a lesson on respecting women, Orlando Bloom punched Justin Bieber and the same was caught on video.
"Orlando is not a violent person," a source from Hollywood Life revealed.
"In fact, he's all about promoting peace. However, he will not tolerate a person, Justin Bieber included, who doesn't respect women," he added about the Orlando Justin Bieber and Orlando Bloom brawl.
Miranda Kerr was with his son Flynn in Germany for a perfume launch when the punching incident happened. Reports said that she was very "embarrassed" and opted not to speak about the incident.
Miranda Kerr and Orlando Bloom separated last year but are still in contact with each other for their four-year-old son Flynn.
The former Victoria's Secret Angel is now being linked to businessman James Packer.
