Bradley Cooper/Lady Gaga - lighthearted

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--

Yeah I'm of the view that Irina is a beard - in the same mode as Nicole Kidman. Ie they are both gay and it's a business relationship which is convenient for both.

GaGa like many theatrical singers (like Streisand) is a gay icon. It was a 'show', in the showbiz capital of the world.

And he can't sing.

ComtesseDeSpair · 25/02/2019 23:12

Maybe they’re in non-monogamous relationships and neither of their partners feels threatened because it’s all upfront and mutuallay agreed. I mean, I know we’re supposed to pretend that lifelong monogamy is what everyone is seeking, but I’d not be surprised if it was the case at all.

Budsbegginingspringinsight · 25/02/2019 23:12

Ok re gay.. is there an actor whose not rumoured to be gay. Brad Pitt... George Clooney.. Bradly cooper ext.

Surely a whole new law is spring up around so many special beard arrangement where women put Life on hold to Purley trick the world...

NCforthis2019 none of that list are what would be considered A list actors.

EachandEveryone · 25/02/2019 23:16

Ive never heard of Nicole Kidman being gay. I dont care but its horrible how people get labelled for no good reason.

SemperIdem · 25/02/2019 23:23

Think pp meant Nicole Kidman was a beard for Tom Cruise, not that her current husband was her beard.

TinklyLittleLaugh · 25/02/2019 23:24

Well if it was all faked he's a bloody good actor. The way he looked at her in the movie was incredible.

I put most of those names up but usernumbers1234 thinks it's a rubbish list.

Boulezvous · 25/02/2019 23:33

My Aussie friends all said Nicole was thought to be gay before she met Tom Cruise. She filed for divorce the day it was 10 years of marriage. The deal was he helped her career.

It doesn't really matter if she's gay or not or her current relationship but I'm very sure about Tom C. He propositioned my male mate. Also would put Travolta in that category.

Anyway, I'd go with Bradley being the same. Don't agree with Clooney, Pitt, Gyllenhall or Will Smith.

Hopefully in future Hollywood will enable more people to be openly gay and play leading romantic male leads. But it doesn't happen that much today does it?

AGHHHH · 25/02/2019 23:38

@Imissgmichael you don't know anyone who thinks she's a good actress? The amount of praise I've seen is insane so that just suggests your social circle is very limited. Have your own opinion about her acting but don't be snooty and self righteous about it. The critics speak for themselves.

Drogosnextwife · 25/02/2019 23:40

I heard a clip of her blubbing at the awards on the radio today. It was cringey!

Imissgmichael · 26/02/2019 00:21

AGH bless. Unlike you I’m not dictated too by who Is worthy. If I think someone’s a crap actor I won’t be bullied to think otherwise. You think critics say she’s a good actress I think she isn’t. Wooden, wooden, wooden. As much sexual chemistry as s nun in s coma.?

AGHHHH · 26/02/2019 00:24

@Imissgmichael Bullied? Don't be ridiculous. I said in my post "have your own opinion" so, er, obviously nobody's trying to take that away from you. It's your smugness. There's a difference between having an opinion and being a smug twat.

goldengummybear · 26/02/2019 00:26

I thought that Tom filed for divorce just before their 10 yr anniversary as the amount that she would get if they passed the 10 yr mark would be much higher?

FromEden · 26/02/2019 00:28

That performance was cringeworthy, so fake. Can't believe people are buying it tbh Confused

RhymingRabbit · 26/02/2019 00:34

@ShesABelter

I thought it was shite too. Both characters were devoid of any redeeming features. I cry at EVERYTHING. ..but i was totally unmoved. There was no chemistry. Lady Gaga was ok at acting but certainly not brilliant. The film was bitty. Just shite.

Imissgmichael · 26/02/2019 00:35

Oh dear god AGH. Lady GG isn’t concidered to be a good actress despite what the the so called experts say. They’re not going to offer her a Shakespeare part are they ( thank god). I’m sorry you’re upset you’re crush is thought of as meh. It doesn’t really matter as I’m sure she won’t be out of work.

AcrossthePond55 · 26/02/2019 00:36

I've seen a few interviews Gaga's done and she just seems to have this 'flirty' look about her when she's talking to a man. She was looking at Mark Ronson in the same way last night I think it's just an natural part of her demeanor. I find it a bit irritating.

SleepingStandingUp · 26/02/2019 00:37

Surely it's time one of the big actors come out if they are gay and prove that it doesn't matter. The beautiful Heath Ledger managed to film love scenes with some bloke for Broke back Mountain. It didn't matter that he was attracted to woken in real life, he acted. It really is sad that it would affect any actors career for being honest about who they're sexually attracted to.

Imissgmichael · 26/02/2019 00:38

Gaga looks like s bloke. Seems mean to say that but it’s true.

Imissgmichael · 26/02/2019 00:46

Tom filed for a divorce, allegedly, when Nicole had miscarried.

My

Imissgmichael · 26/02/2019 00:49

Big AGH you don’t understand what a smug twat is. Blankly agreeing with what the papers say makes you a blind follower of the crowd. Really really sad.

MamaRaisingBoys · 26/02/2019 00:51

Why do people want all these celebs to be secretly gay 😂

Learnt some new ones from this thread. I can believe one or two might be hiding it but not that many surely.

The only one I’ve thought there may be something in it is Hugh Jackman. Possibly bi imo but clearly adores his wife

goldengummybear · 26/02/2019 00:58

Singers often duet with other singers so faking chemistry is something that Gaga is probably very used to. I didn't find it any more convincing than other romantic duets out there. Lots of eye contact is lesson 1 of pretending to be interested.

HaroldsSocalledBluetits · 26/02/2019 01:00

Shayk is like a professional beard, isn't she? First Ronaldo, now Cooper. It's her thing.
