Orlando Bloom says he was a chocolate-fiend as a kid, and was bullied because of his weight.

According to TeenHollywood, the Pirates of the Caribbean pin-up says he piled on the pounds as a youngster following a skiing accident.

He's quoted as saying: "I was a porker. I'd eat lots of biscuits and chocolate bars. The team sports we had at school never worked for me."

Bloom says he was also given a rough time because of his dyslexia. He said: "I was also teased because I couldn't spell. I'm still mildly dyslexic."
