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--

Noooooooo
David Hyde Pearce is gay? Shock

Imissgmichael · 26/02/2019 01:10

The daft idea that Hugh Hackman is gay. Pathetic. Don’t ya know he can’t probably be married to an older woman and you know actually fancy her.

ZenNudist · 26/02/2019 07:10

Watched a star is born the other night. Got half way through amd gave up its like watching paint dry.

MargotLovedTom1 · 26/02/2019 07:19

Bradley Cooper looks like Des O'Connor.

Budsbegginingspringinsight · 26/02/2019 07:32

The thing is I don't care if they are gay or not I just find the speculation boring endless Hollywood actors gay and whilst I don't believe this endless roll call is many could be bi as well

Seahorseshoe · 26/02/2019 07:33

I've not seen the film, I liked the performance, I think they were acting. One last time before we wrap this movie up for good.

Seahorseshoe · 26/02/2019 07:35

I don't know about him having a beard, but I suspect he wears a wig. Not that it matters, it's a good one.

Jaxtellerswife · 26/02/2019 08:00

@SleepingStandingUp Jake gyllenhaall is not some bloke, how could you! Grin
I'm pretty sure I've spelt his name wrong though

HoppityFrog3 · 26/02/2019 08:04

What a horrible, catty, homophobic thread. Hmm

Some really nasty, mean-spirited remarks on here. 'There are rumours Gaga may be a man,' 'Bradley Cooper is gay,' 'Gaga can't sing,' 'Bradley wears a WIG,' 'Gaga can't act,' 'Bradley can't sing,' 'Gaga has a puffy face.' 'they're overrated,' 'he uses beards,' 'the film is shit' blah blah blah...'

The only thing I agree with, is that it's not fair on his girlfriend for people to be speculating on them together.

And I am also sick of the constant rumours about every other Hollywood actor being gay; get a fucking grip already. And even if a few of them are, so what? Is that a bad thing for them to be?

People are tossing the 'gay' rumour around, as an insult. Vile. Take a long, hard look at yourselves in the mirror. Shame on you. Hmm

@Mamaraisingboys

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

Ah ha, that's because it makes them feel better, and more superior, to think these hugely successful, talented, attractive people who have a much better life than them are GAY. Because to them being gay is a flaw, and in their toxic little minds, it means they are better than these successful, talented celebrities that they're slating/accusing of being gay. Very unpleasant.

I have never heard the term 'having a beard' until this thread.

I think I have been living under a rock. Blush

Enjoyed the movie, think the whole them as an item is just a publicity stunt for the movie.

Lexilooo · 26/02/2019 08:14

Well I was very confused by this thread until I realised I had my Bradleys mixed up. Bradley Walsh dueting with Gaga at the oscars seemed unlikely

poglets · 26/02/2019 08:14

This is the most straight Bradley Cooper has ever been.

Chuckles.

HoppityFrog3 · 26/02/2019 08:16

@poglets

Chuckles.

Guffaw guffaw, implying Bradley is gay. You're fucking hilarious. Hmm

Change the record.

poglets · 26/02/2019 08:20

@HoppityFrog3

You're right. I am implying he is gay, and there is nothing wrong with it at all.

I am quite the opposite of homophobic.

lau888 · 26/02/2019 08:30

If this is based on the Oscar performance, I saw the identical performance at a Lady Gaga concert clip on YouTube - right down to sitting side-by-side at the piano, arm around her waist, heads leaning in, and her putting her hand on his hand around her waist at the end. Identical in every way, except outfits. So, I'd guess it's based on a scene from their film and is 100% not based on real life.

OscarIsaacsEyes · 26/02/2019 08:33

HoppityFrog3

I agree, people just love to comment negatively on any celeb threads. I've never understood it but I suppose it makes them feel better about themselves. Confused

SparkiePolastri · 26/02/2019 08:46

Neil Patrick Harris
*John Mahoney
Luke Evans
Jim Parsons
Ricky Martin
David Hyde Pierce
Wentworth Miller
Alan Cumming *
Richard Chamberlain

These are really, really not A-listers (and am a bit bemused at whoever listed Ricky Martin as an A-list actor), which pretty much proves the point.

Which is that, unfortunately, it's not OK to be a gay leading man, or woman, in Hollywood. Just like, if you're a woman, your career will begin to dwindle from the age of 35.

Look - people notice this sort of stuff, and like it or not, will discuss it. I completely get why certain actors will do their level best to stay in the closet. I probably would, too. But these sorts of secrets are very, very difficult to keep and people generally know (and feel short-changed) when they're having the wool pulled over their eyes.

BlackCatSleeping · 26/02/2019 08:48

His Ex wife has nothing good to say about him and apparently laughed at the idea that him and Gaga might be fucking.

OscarIsaacsEyes · 26/02/2019 08:49

Feel short changed? Really. In the nicest possible way, it's none of their fucking business.

OscarIsaacsEyes · 26/02/2019 08:52

I don't think there are many ex wives who much good to say about their ex husbands to be fair.

OscarIsaacsEyes · 26/02/2019 08:52

*Who have much good

Bowchicawowow · 26/02/2019 08:53

I read a rumour which implied that Rami Malek is gay and his relationship with Lucy Boynton was part of an Oscar campaign. Absolute bullshit. He is very private but spends a lot of time travelling to London because he is so in love with her. It was pretty obvious that their relationship is real given how they were together at the Oscars. It’s horrible how people’s private lives are fair game just because they choose to be actors or singers. It’s really none of our business.

CalmDownPacino · 26/02/2019 08:56

Who is "Mrs Cooper"? Talk about reducing a woman to just "famous guys wife". Her name is Irina Shayk and I don't think I have ever seen her referred to as "Mrs Cooper" anywhere!

SparkiePolastri · 26/02/2019 09:01

Feel short changed? Really. In the nicest possible way, it's none of their fucking business.

My point is that if people think they're being lied to, they'll talk about it, discuss and speculate. It's human nature.

This thread being a case in point.

golddustwomen · 26/02/2019 09:31

I had no idea Luke Evans was gay. Beautiful beautiful man!!

I think their chemistry is completely fake and just acting. However it's so over the top and cringe worthy!!
