Katy Perry Dishes on Orlando Bloom's 'Really Sweet' Helicopter Proposal

The singer opens up to Jimmy Kimmel about how her new fiance popped the question on Valentine's Day.

Katy Perry couldn't be more excited about her engagement to Orlando Bloom, and she owes their love connection to fast food.

The "Witness" singer appeared on Monday's Jimmy Kimmel Live, where she opened up about her new fiance, and how their romance started over an In-N-Out hamburger.

"In-N-Out plays a big role in my life. We bonded over an In-N-Out burger about three years ago at the Golden Globes," Perry recalled to host Jimmy Kimmel. "He stole one off of my table… he took it and I was like, 'Wait! Who- oh, wow, you're so hot. Fine, take it.'"

The 34-year-old pop star said she later approached Bloom at an after-party and asked him about the delicious burger, after which they immediately hit it off.

"And then, you know, cut to..." Perry joked, flashing her shiny new engagement ring.

Kimmel asked Perry about whether she told Bloom exactly what she wanted her engagement ring to look like, and she delicately admitted, "I voiced my opinions."

While Perry might have had an idea about what to expect from her ring, she had no idea what to expect on the day Bloom actually popped the question.

"It was Valentine's Day… I thought we were going to go see some art after dinner, but instead we pulled up to a helicopter," Perry explained.

"Very Bachelor," Kimmel quipped.

"Yeah! I'm just glad I don't have to go on that show now," Perry responded with a laugh.

While they were in the air, Perry recalled how Bloom handed her a note on which he'd written all the things he wanted to tell her about his love for her. The note was supposed to divert her attention while he clandestinely pulled the engagement ring box out of his jacket pocket to pop the question.

However, things apparently didn't go exactly according to plan. Perry said as she read the note, Bloom tried to pull the ring box out but it was slightly too big to remove easily. The 42-year-old actor ended up tugging on the box so hard he ripped his jacket pocket and accidentally smashed a bottle of champagne with his elbow, all while she pretended not to notice the commotion.

In the end though, the whole proposal proved to be "really sweet."

"We landed on a rooftop [in Los Angeles] and my whole family was there, and all my friends," Perry shared. "He did so well."

After her interview on JKL, Perry shared her moods on Instagram, which included a video of her chowing down on a burger.
