Courtney Love has credited actor Orlando Bloom with helping her to stay off drugs.

The singer said Bloom changed her life by introducing her to Buddhist chanting.

She told Access Hollywood: "We chant every day. The 12-step programme demands that you have a spiritual practice that you do daily."

The 43-year-old added: "I love Orlando for this. He doesn't mind being outed as a Buddhist. I don't mind talking about it because it has changed my entire life, changed everything - restructured my body, restructured my physicality.
