Lord Of The Rings Stars Perform Goodbye Dance

Lord of the Rings stars wrapped up their visit to New Zealand yesterday by performing a dance for fans at Wellington Airport.

The cast had been in the country to attend the premiere of Return of the King, the last film in the fantasy trilogy, on Monday, and said thanks to locals for their warm reception with the jubilant jig.

Led by hunky Orlando Bloom, Sir Ian McKellen and Viggo Mortensen danced around for excited fans who had come to wish them farewell.

Bloom said, "It's amazing. The whole experience has just been the most precious time ever."
