Bradley Cooper/Lady Gaga - lighthearted

[Mother87]

Apologies if this is elsewhere... AIBU to think that they cannot possibly have NOT fallen for each other?! Their chemistry is sizzling, their body-- language 'close' (possibly after months of filming) Reminds me of Bogie & Bacall showing age--

Naught don't think you understand, I was referring to the awkwardness when Mrs Cooper was sat on her own watching the performance of these two, with everyone hyped up about are they aren't they and the rumour mill in full force.

Can't be nice if they are genuinely a strong stable couple, and everyone keeps banging on how your OH is balls deep in lady gaga. Or worse the rumours are true your trying to put a brave face on and then he's on stage with the woman he's actually balls deep in.

Or thirdly she's a cover for his homosexuality and spends her days putting a brave face on/pretending.

It's all just awkward no matter which way you think about it 😂

@Budsbegginingspringinsight Can you name a successful gay male actor who plays straight roles?

Oh ok i did missunderstand your post there were a lot of comments even "press" stories talking about how awkward it was to see bradleys other half sit in between them and how she obviously did it to seperate them, when aftally all she did was sit next to her long term partner

No it cant be nice, it cant be nice for any of them its their lives but people have come to start tjreads like this cos oh yjeir celebrities and its fun to gossip

John barrowman

BlueJeans Luke Evans does ok for himself and I think in time may be a successful actor with an academy award 🤷 but maybe not, I'm no pundit 😂

@BlueJeansNiceTop, Jim parsons and Neil Patrick Harris are both very successful

Off top head no and I can't be bothered too Google but I just can't see why anyone would care anymore.

I don’t think Bradley Cooper or Lady Gaga are on Mumsnet somehow.

Think usually it’s an “arrangement” with a beard.

And I’m sorry, they are in the public eye, they put themselves up for the scrutiny and I am fairly sure they are pretty thick skinned.

In interviews he looks mostly irritated by her tbh. And that’s without the gay rumours which aren’t even thinly veiled anymore. I’m gutted, I loved him in American Hustle.

Surely only Mrs Cooper can say how awkward it may or may not have been?

She may be totally comfortable with it all because she knows ....THEY'RE ACTING!!!!

Nick Grimshaw on Radio 1 earlier said a body language expert had said the chemistry was faked. They are actors. It is their job to make us believe the hype. Now the Oscars are over, they won’t be seen together again, I’m sure.

I dont see the chemistry and think he's a terrible singer!

Doesn’t John Barrowman play mostly superficial action roles that dont delve in to which team he bats for anyway? He could be gay or straight or bi in torchwood.

Agreed - all the speculation must be awful for "Mrs Cooper" - poss comes with the territory though

I'm not 'hoping' for anything myself - just a thought or two after seeing the film (yes i know they were acting) and their performance last night... and yes probably won't do their joint careers any harm

Sorry Naught think I'm still tired from being up till 4:30am watching the Oscars 😂

People love to gossip but I think they forget there are actual people's lives in the centre of it all most of the time.

I know Lady GaGa has called off her engagement, so imagine how that poor bloke is feeling and then seeing all this all over the media.

I met someone who claimed to have had a really difficult job keeping BC’s gay flings quiet when he was in London starring in “The elephant man”. He said BC was really indiscreet and they were forever covering up after him. I was unimpressed but he was adamant, so I moved on!

I think people speculating about LG all over twitter etc is really insensitive when he has a partner and a child. Just because he’s famous doesn’t make it less hurtful for her.

I dunno - they are sharing a unique experience having taken the song from its inception, through the filming, to the pinnacle at the Oscars,and what is possibly the last time they’ll perform it together. I’d be emotional, particularly if i’d made a close friend in the process.

I love him. He is the most beautiful man. when clean shaven anyway

BC's gf is a well known beard isn't she?

Seriously, theres loads.
Ricky Martin, Wentworth Miller, John Mahoney ( d),and David HydePiece ( both from Frasier)Kristism Nairn ftom GOT off the top of my head.
I'm sure there's plenty more!

I cannot think of any A listers who are openly Gay?

Silver Linings Playbook. Another one where I wanted to jump him. God he’s so beautiful.

Why is Lady Gaga normal now? What happened to meat dresses and being carried in an egg? I mean, I know it's the posh Oscars but she was normal at the Grammys too.
I thought her face looked slightly puffy though as though she might be pregnant. You heard it here first!

I think it's all fake and put on for the media and publicity. Look how many people are speaking about them!
I bet he goes home and says to his wife "I can't wait to be rid of that horror".

I'm not insinuating that's anything to do with BC though!
