Just that really. The cameras stopped rolling on A Star is Born a while ago. Time to knock it off with the ‘chemistry’with Gaga I think.

Any 30 Rock fans? I’m just thinking of James Franco and his Japanese pillow...

Oh I’d forgotten about this!

I think that she understands for the movie to have been successful Gaga and Cooper needed to have chemistry.

Its the same with the Oscar's performance, for it to be a breathtaking performance they needed to show that chemistry like in the film.

I'm sure she will understand this and be very supportive of him.

Well she had a baby with someone - unless it’s a good stand in / adopted but looks the part

She’s not having a child with anybody.

I know there is at least one famous woman who ‘adopted’ children as part of a couple but was only ever their mother on paper and didn’t have a relationship with either pre or post ‘split’. Third wife of the same apparently ‘auditioned’ for the role and had a bio child by contractual agreement that she would be treated as the child’s sole parent.

@elQuintoConyo I stopped reading the thread when I got to the word merkin . I just love that word and it’s really not used enough.

Isn't this 'story' 2 weeks old already?

Anyway, Irina and Cooper are rumoured not to even live in the same house, so I wouldn't worry about their 'relationship' too much. Sounds like a pretty sweet deal for both of them.

I also think she doesn’t have a thing to worry about when it comes to ‘chemistry’ with Gaga

I find the beard thing hard to believe. When it’s to the extent of having a child with someone

What’s in it for her? I’m sure she’s got loads of £ and offers

Lots of out gays are very commercially succesful...Elton, Ellen, Freddy Mercury etc.

Both Elton and Freddie were both 'married' to women/beards when they were not so successful or getting to be successful. Ellen's career in acting meant that she had to keep it quiet during her TV sitcom. When that finished, she then came out but has only been presenting since. People forget that. In Hollywood itself, (so not Elton or Freddie as singers of course) where films have to appeal to many countries, heterosexuality is still preferred. So so sad. Well done to Taron Egerton for coming out, star of the upcoming Rocket Man.

In answer to the OP, no, I don't feel sorry for her. She has a very good deal/contract with Bradley Cooper. I feel sorry that beards have to exist at all though.

Supposedly there are a huge amount of actors hiding their sexuality behind "beards" in Hollywood...

I do have to be honest and say I can see why they do it. If I know an actor is gay and playing straight in a film, I find it hard to accept any "chemistry" with a female lead.

Just to add, I am in no way homophobic.

They're actors, playing on their "chemistry" for publicity. People are incredibly gullible

^This

There was apparently ‘rumours’ she was pregnant with his baby the other day which she responded to with a denial that just happened to plug her latest album. 🙄

There are lots of movies where the lead actors hated each other and yet portray convincing lovers.

Yes, Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey in Dirty Dancing apparently.

LG herself said, the whole Oscars bit was rehearsed for days including seeing the piano being set up etc, the walking to her and sitting next to her. The whole thing. She talked about it on a chat show.

They are actors, they are meant to make you believe they are in love.

Okay, leg hair, you are probably right. I mean, what is the old saying? “ Money doesn’t buy you everything but it does buy you the kind of happiness you enjoy”.

hmmm,

Children in the UK having to use food banks because they live in poverty.

Unaffordable childcare,

People being abused in care homes
These tend to be things I think about and feel sorry for the people affected.

people I genuinely don't know, on the cover of magazines and on the stage at awards ceremonies. Nah. Don't feel sorry for any of them. I genuinely can't relate to their circumstances.

PS: Melania Trump isn't really my cup of tea, she dresses well, but isn't pretty to me, nor does she have her own wealth. So that wasn't the great example for me.

Yes, out of all the Russian supermodels, irine shayk is the one I pity the most. Confused

If she splits up with Bradley it'll probably take all of 3 seconds before she's going out with Leonardo DiCaprio. I think they operate on a rota system.
