Why in Fuck's Sake would Bradley Cooper go to his high school reunion?

He's so fucking bizarre.

I guess this is his attempt to seem "humble" and like a "normal guy."

But it just makes him seem weird.

Narcissist.

"Casually" showing up to his high school reunion as an A-list movie star--not too performative and humble bragging a gesture. Asshole.

Why shouldn’t he go?

Why would he want to, if not for the attention?

He did his classmates a favor by giving them something to talk about.

The worst are people who bring spouses and you get caught making nice with boring interlopers.

[quote] Why would he want to, if not for the attention?

1) To show that he's the most famous person in his class, 30 years later

2) To have people fawn all over him

3) So he could tell this dumb story on a late-night talk show.

It's total narcissism.

Maybe he likes to see old friends.

R8 You can do that without going to a reunion?

[quote] He did his classmates a favor by giving them something to talk about.

Oh yes, R6, he gave the hoi polloi something to live for--forever being able to talk about his presence at a fucking high school reunion. Did he bring Gaga as his date?

Needy for attention.

He really is on the Chestnut Hill Brewing Company Facebook page... lol.

It's apparently a fairly prestigious prep school. I'm sure there are notables of one sort or another in every class. Maybe he liked it there.

Apparently, R11, he doesn't get enough of that as a grossly overpaid movie star.

Chestnut Hill is nice...but what a loser thing to do.

Who goes repeatedly to their high school reunions--especially when you're Bradley Cooper, who could do a million other things--unless you wanted them to salivate over your presence every time?

Ass. Hole.

Did Bradley take his boyfriend to the reunion?

"Why would Hollywood's most flagrantly attention-seeking movie star seek attention, asks local idiot"

Well now he would be the star of the show now wouldn't be?

Me! Me! ME!

His need for attention is becoming quite sociopathic.

Amazing that it's never enough for some--money, movies, awards...

R20 that reminded me of this family guy joke

Bradley Cooper is the male version of this

Even on DL, sometimes you can accept things at face value.

Maybe he just liked high school - not everyone had a miserable experience and relive the trauma daily.

He is the thirstiest of all major stars. He does nothing to hide it.

The point of going to a reunion is to see old friends whom you would otherwise never see.

[quote]Maybe he just liked high school - not everyone had a miserable experience and relive the trauma daily.

Unlike many DLers.

I'm not a fan of Bradley Cooper, but why wouldn't he go to his high school reunion? He's probably kept in touch with some people over the years.

How many arguments arguing against your premise do you need on one thread, R28?

[quote]Why would he want to, if not for the attention?

Why does anyone attend a high school reunion? Maybe he liked some of his classmates and wanted to see them again.

Really, what the fuck is wrong with some of you people?

Also, R28, that's been answered that he doesn't need to go to a high school reunion to stay in touch with a few friends. Are you suggesting everyone in his class is someone he really wants to keep in touch with?

Yeah big deal. Good for him.

OP, just because you were a loser in HS no one would miss at a reunion doesn't mean this is true for everyone else.

R30=Bradley Cooper, narcissist.

I remember seeing photos of jack nicholson at a high school reunion maybe a 50th. Not much publicity but apparently stayed close to a number of people from his class.

Some of you *really* need to get a life.

R35, did Nicholson advertise it on national tv?

[quote] How many arguments arguing against your premise do you need on one thread, [R28]?

How about one that makes sense?

All I see are assumptions about his motives and claims that he should have better things to do, which say more about the person posting than about Cooper.

OP is a retard.

OP never completed high school.

R38 is deficient in reading skills.

Suddenly, the idiot Bradley Cooper stans are upon us!

OP is a serial thread starter. Well, OP...you try.

I’m not even a Bradley Cooper fan. But I don’t see anything wrong with his going to his own class reunion.

There *isn't* anything wrong with it, r44. OP is just desperate for attention.

Because he's a douchebag and a malignant narcissist. Look how he describes his "donation" to the reunion. He wants to be seen and applauded, even by people he barely fucking knows.

It's the same reason Oprah built that crooked school in Africa and filmed a documentary series about it. Not about the school, but about Saint Oprah's tireless efforts to lift foreigners out of poverty.

[quote] OP is a serial thread starter.

God forbid people start threads on DL, R43!

Some of you are so bitter.

See, no matter how many accolades or privileges a celeb has, there's always a hunger for more. The narcissism is a disease, infecting their bodies and minds (I'm omitting 'souls' from this).

You aren't fooling anybody, r47. See r36.

Coming to threads like this, and taking the time to tell the rest of us to get a life, really negates any superiority you might think you have.

If DL-ers have no life, then what's your excuse for being here, Cunt of the Month? You think YOU have a life?

Not fooling whom about what, R50?

Setting aside whether Cooper is a thirsty, attention seeking narcissist, the perspective of some of you people regarding high school reunions is bizarre.

Of course, you can keep in touch with people from high school. Of course, no one was friends with everyone.

But, there are dozens of people with whom I went to high school, even some as far back as elementary school who all went to the same junior high and high school, who I wouldn't necessarily have kept in touch with, but remind me of my childhood and are part of those memories. I don't want to spend 8 hours catching up, but meeting and catching up is still a pleasant experience down memory lane.

I didn't particularly like high school, nor did I come close to peaking then, but I still enjoyed it enough to go to a few reunions every couple decades. Geesh.

Perhaps the problem is not that he went to his reunion, but that he talked about it to the press?

Serious case of "crazy eyes".

But, R54, what's the point of doing it if you can't dine out on it on TV later? It wasn't like we all saw him there!

For those of you who don't understand what the core issue is here, please see R16.

He/She nailed it.

[quote]Serious case of "crazy eyes".

Yeah, even back when I first saw him on Alias, I thought he was hot, but had crazy eyes.

Thanks--and you're welcome, R57!

Please help me understand your argument. Who should not go to their class reunions—famous people generally or just actors? Or it is successful people? Or rich people?

Attractive people?

[quote] Please help me understand your argument. Who should not go to their class reunions—famous people generally or just actors? Or it is successful people? Or rich people?

No one, R60, because it's kind of pathetic. Granted, that's an opinion. But if you really can't comprehend why it looks performative for Cooper to go to ALL his high school reunions and then talk about it later on tv, you're too simple to be helped.

Janis Joplin said, when she was on Dick Cavett, that she was going to hers, by saying: "They laughed me out of class, out of town, and out of state--so now I'm going home." For her, it was a fuck-you to the bullies who made her life hell. THAT is a good reason to go, and that is NOT the case with Miss Cooper.

Maybe hoping to finally hook up with that football player he lusted after?

[quote]Also, [R28], that's been answered that he doesn't need to go to a high school reunion to stay in touch with a few friends. Are you suggesting everyone in his class is someone he really wants to keep in touch with?

He went for the reason people go to a reunion, to see their former classmates. I keep in touch through social media but it's nice to have a nice reunion party and see everybody in person.

[quote]Why does anyone attend a high school reunion? Maybe he liked some of his classmates and wanted to see them again.

[quote]Really, what the fuck is wrong with some of you people?

Quite a few DLers are unbelievably bitter and misanthropic.

Bradley gesturing towards a classroom: "And in there is where I got sodomised by the substitute gym teacher. They say school days are the best days of your life and damnit, they weren't wrong!"

[quote] He went for the reason people go to a reunion, to see their former classmates. I keep in touch through social media but it's nice to have a nice reunion party and see everybody in person.

You're not Bradley Cooper, and you're not an Oscar nominated actor/director.

He did it purely for attention, and you fucking know it!

[quote] Why does anyone attend a high school reunion?

To get revenge.

He's going to a high school reunion to have some fun and see his former classmates. Trust me, the people you went to school with always see you as the kid they knew and grew up with.

I can't believe how out of touch with reality some of you are. Bitter, miserable fucking assholes.

I'm sorry that you all had shit childhoods and were traumatized in high school decades ago, but most people move on from that and don't relive it every single day years and years later.

[quote]Also, [R28], that's been answered that he doesn't need to go to a high school reunion to stay in touch with a few friends. Are you suggesting everyone in his class is someone he really wants to keep in touch with?

No, Mr. Straw Man, I wasn't suggesting that at all. And if you can't see the stupidity of your argument, I'm sure I won't be able to explain it to you.

[quote]He did it purely for attention, and you fucking know it!

Sure, Jan r67 OP...

R69, most people wouldn't go to every high school reunion. I'm sorry that you're a fool apologist for this narcissistic movie star, but don't assume we all relive high school traumas on a daily basis (presume much?) because you're too much of a dimwit not to see an obvious act of self-serving, self-inflated movie-starism.

[quote]you're too much of a dimwit not to see an obvious act of self-serving, self-inflated movie-starism.

Well, that's your take on it. As asinine as it is.

Not as asinine, R73, as defending a movie star who repeatedly goes to his fucking high school reunions and talks about them on tv.

[quote]Most people wouldn't go to every high school reunion.

Just because YOU wouldn't do that doesn't mean it's true that "most people" wouldn't. Everyone else in the world does not behave and think exactly as you do, and we can all be very grateful for that.

Yeah, R75? I bet most people would be satisfied going to 1, maybe 2 milestone reunions, not several. And if you think otherwise, then right back atcha: I'm glad I don't think like you, either.

Seek professional help, r72. Truly and honestly we're facing much bigger issues than Bradley Cooper going to a reunion and (shriek!!!) talking about it. Yet here you are...obsessed.

Responding to you is not being obsessed, R77, or a sign of being mentally ill--maybe just a sign of being bored. Looks to me like you're right along with everyone else here, responding. Maybe you, too, should seek some help?

[quote]Maybe you, too, should seek some help?

I'm not the one being a hypercritical drama queen, r78, and finding fault where there is none to be found.

R79, how am I being hypocritical?

Obviously part of his Oscar campaign. "Look at meeeeee!!! I'm so normal! I talk to the little people! I give back! Me ME MEEEEEE!!!"

R81, it's true that when there's a movie to plug, they will go to any lengths in the name of publicity.

He just gets uglier. He is a 2 face! He was hot in the first Hangover movie but ugly every where else

He wanted to reconnect with his high school girlfriend to see if the spark was still there.

[quote] He just gets uglier

Oh brother, R83.

No matter how famous, many people still won't care because they don't know you or they frankly know you from a different context. Think of your own families. How many of them would freak out at the thought of meeting Bradly Cooper?

[quote] Think of your own families. How many of them would freak out at the thought of meeting Bradly Cooper?

Not one of them, R86.

[quote]Janis Joplin said, when she was on Dick Cavett, that she was going to hers, by saying: "They laughed me out of class, out of town, and out of state--so now I'm going home." For her, it was a fuck-you to the bullies who made her life hell. THAT is a good reason to go, and that is NOT the case with Miss Cooper.

This is essentially the same reason, or frankly, an even worse reason than the one you're attributing to Cooper. Honestly pathetic. As if they were unaware of who she became. What if they had "Carrie'd" her? Cooper at least apparently enjoyed his time in high school, so returning for a reunion isn't particularly odd. Perhaps he was requested to attend by friends. The impulse that drove Janis is much darker.

R88, Janis Joplin was completely justified in wanting to preen in front of the very bastards who savagely abused her just a few years before, unlike this pretty, popular prep-school boy. Fuck outta here.

[quote] They laughed me out of class, out of town, and out of state--so now I'm going home

This would make a great horror movie.

"Killer Reunion - Janis Comes Home!"

r89 and Copper doesn't have the right to hang out with people who he enjoyed and who enjoyed him? Fuck outta here. And we see what happened to her.

Yes, R91, Joplin's OD directly related to her attendance at her high school reunion. Are you also as stupid looking as you sound?

I enjoyed high school and marching band so I have been to two of my reunions.

I thought it was cool that he went. I'm sure he has friends he wanted to see. He seems like a nice guy and I found it kind of sweet that he went.

r92 Really? So you think that her showing up to her reunion to "preen" in front of her tormentors indicated...what exactly? You think there's no connection between high school age "abuse" and later life fuckups? Perhaps if she had let go of some of that bitterness and urge to "show up" people who should no longer have mattered to her, she wouldn't have become a drug addict. Did she even make the reunion?

OP what business is it of yours. Why are you mad?

Thirsty, thirsty, thirsty…still no Oscar.

And the “Tammy Cruise ‘Look How Strenuously Normal I Am!’” award goes to…

[quote] I bet most people would be satisfied going to 1, maybe 2 milestone reunions, not several. And if you think otherwise, then right back atcha: I'm glad I don't think like you, either.

If it were worth my time to respond to you as a rational human being, I would say that how many high school reunions one attends might depend on several variables. For a while, my high school was holding reunions every five years, and I believe I attended two or three of them in a row because I was still living not far from the site of the reunion and I enjoyed seeing and catching up with people every five years, so why not? Clearly, your thinking about this is different, and that's fine. But you should apologize for suggesting that people who attend "several" of their reunions must have something wrong with them mentally and/or emotionally, because I REALLY don't think you are in a position to make such a judgment.

[quote]I felt like some weird imposter,

All the time, most likely.

So he's dating Gigi Hadid now? I can't wait for the narcissistic drama he and Yolanda will get into.

I barely remember high school, why would anyone want to go?

R94, wat are you banging on about? And yes, Miss Inquisitive, she made the reunion, and she had a good time being a success and enjoying herself, much like Miss Cooper does, only far more disingenuously.

[quote] Clearly, your thinking about this is different, and that's fine.

Very nice of you, R98.

[quote] But you should apologize for suggesting that people who attend "several" of their reunions must have something wrong with them mentally and/or emotionally

R98, I never said any such thing, so stop making up bullshit. I believe I used the word "pathetic," and I was said that was my opinion, period. I believe it was you who referred to me as mentally ill?

I think it's cool that he went and hung out with normal people. In Hollywood, he's surrounded by YES people and others who suck up for jobs etc.

It's nice to see him get out of that bubble and hang with normal folks.

It's a prep school. No "normal people" there.

R62, no one agrees with you. You suffer from mental illness. Sad.

OP is a shrieking yenta. Block OP and half the thread disappears.

[quote] Apparently, [R11], he doesn't get enough of that as a grossly overpaid movie star.

Remember that story he told on a podcast about a legendary older actress (likely Diane Keaton) congratulating him on Silver Linings Playbook and saying he deserved the nom? He was royally offended that she told him he deserved “the nom” and not the win? He’s such a delicate flower that he can’t shoot the shit with a Hollywood legend and take a joke.

[quote] no one agrees with you.

Except half the thread, braintrust R106.

Nobody freaked out because he's more of an actor, not a movie star.

It's weird how people here don't see him as a person, just because he's a celebrity. Are people who become successful supposed to stay away from their high school reunions? I don't understand that? Are high school reunions only for the non-famous?

Chris Evens went to his 20 year high school reunion. Meryl Streep went to her college reunion and took 5 of her undergrad classmates to a Michael Moore show ( I read about it). College graduation is only 4 years later than high school graduation.

[quote] It's weird how people here don't see him as a person, just because he's a celebrity.

MARY!

Cooper got his big break on Alias, the tv show starring Jennifer Garner. He played her roommate and was actually quite funny because her character was so strong and he was so weak.

NAR-CI-SIS-TIIIIIC

R112 Excuse me? He's still a person who has an inner life - and a desire to revisit his past, where he came from, his high school class, etc. That would seem to be obvious to any person with brains. Some people are reacting as if a person who becomes famous suddenly is a robotic "star" clone who behaves according to some rote set of "celebrity" rules.

[quote] He's still a person who has an inner life

Double MARY, R115!

I am 64 years old and several of my classmates from kindergarten through high school have passed on. I went to my 25th reunion and enjoyed talking with them there. Now I wish I had gone to my 40th. I was hit harder than I expected when I heard they were no longer with us.

I haven't maintained contact with anyone, but they are still part of my life story. I am definitely going to my 50th, now that it is four years away. I was the geek in the class, and I was made fun of, but even those people who did it were eager to talk to me at the 25th. I didn't think I was going to have a good time, but I did.

There are some very very bitter, angry, and lonely people on this thread. I’ll pray for em’.

His teeth look different.

However, as much as Bradley Cooper has accomplished, he didn’t create Post-It notes.

More like "Mattress Back."

Miss Cooper was a pass around bottom.

Do people in Hollywood hate Bradley Cooper as much as we do?

To reconnect with his wrestling partner and that quarterback....

Excuse me for misquoting you, R103. I'll modify my post to say that you should apologize for insisting that anyone who would attend "several" high school reunions is "pathetic."

“People love to feel superior to their past.”

^^but sometimes they just want to hang out with their old high school friends and have a bit of fun.

I don’t think it’s weird or inappropriate for him to go to his HS reunion. (I feel like the same folks bitching that he went would slam him if there was a news story that he DIDN’T go for being an egomaniac and thinking he’s too good for it all 🙄).

I don’t know famous people, but social media has made me realize I know people who know famous people. And oddly some of them are just normal people who want to stay close to the folks they knew growing up. They want to comment on pics of their friend’s kids, they want to make snarky remarks on jokes that all their friends are making.

Many, many years ago, I made a comment on a friend’s post on Facebook and I got a notification when someone responded and I was shocked. It was an (undeniably) A-list celeb who just left a 😂 emoji response. She didn’t have a blue check mark verifying her and when I searched Facebook, I found another account that was verified. So I messaged our mutual friend and asked “is that really who it says it is?” Yup. Friends since junior high. She had two accounts. One professional one and one for keeping in touch with friends.

So I don’t know this actress, I didn’t immediately send her a friend request, but I thought, well…she’s just a person. She may be a famous person, but she has friends from when she wasn’t and she’s keeping that part of her life and doing the same thing we all do. She just had to do it twice. Once for business, once for her friends. 🤷🏻

I don’t think everything every celebrity does is attention seeking. Some things that they do seem to go out of the way to avoid attention. I can’t say that BC going to a high school reunion is weird and all I can assume is he had friends and seeing them all in the same place at a reunion is an easy way to say hi and catch up.

Telling it as a story on a talk show also isn’t the worst thing ever. Calling the paparazzi and having them SHOW UP AT the reunion would be weird, but it doesn’t sound like he did that, huh?

Notice that Miss Cooper isn't in the group photo.

Which means, he probably left the reunion early.

Probably just showed up to say that he went to the reunion, and then bailed early.

I would love for one of his classmates to spill the dirt.

How is this narcissism? I went to my high school's 50th. I was one of the senior class leaders. Did I think that mattered FIFTY YEARS LATER? Fuck no.

I went to meet up with classmates I hadn't seen since we graduated. They are scattered across the country, so the chance to congregate was, for me, a welcome opportunity to renew old ties. We had a great time. I will likely never see these people again. And in fact a few have since died.

Is it so wrong for Cooper to want to visit old friends at a venue where he doesn't have to duck the paparazzi? Is it so wrong that he might want to be among normal people instead of among sycophants or celebrity suckups?

Some of you previous posters really tick me off.

Brad’s PR shills are out in force.

I guess his thirst for an AA is even more desperate than we thought.

See R135, r131 and r132

Invested much?

Take a smoke break, girls!

^^you're insane.

Too bad you had a rough time in high school.

R136.

Babe, you’re so transparent.

What do they pay you, $10 an hour?

There are way more honorable jobs than this.

Get a real job where you’re respected.

Being an on-line PR shill is beneath you!

R135/R137 is 100% correct.

There is some serious Bradley Cooper shilling going on here.

Mr. Dictionary has deserted r137 tonight.

So sad that he still got beaten up by his high school buddies - now all overweight ex-cops.

R140 Bullies, rather. His old buddies probably just hit him up for cash.

It's a Philly thing, I get it. He's attached to the Philadelphia area and you know....the memories. No big deal. Go Eagles!

What I can't help wondering, r67, is why it matters so much to you that Bradley Cooper goes to his HS reunions.

He sure has not aged very well. I believe he attended his high school reunion to become the talk of the town again. All he wants to do is win, win, win, whether it be awards, adulations by his few remaining fans, etc, etc. Emotionally he is a hot mess.

BradLEY is at heart a Philly boy. He attends home Eagles games, e.g. Also, he recently bought a home in the New Hope area.

His motivation for going to his high school reunion was probably similar to that of many others: To see and be seen.

On one "Dick Cavett Show" Janis Joplin, after her rise to fame, attended her Port Arthur, TX, high school reunion, where as a student she wasn't treated well. She got the same at the reunion.

Not true, R145. They didn't treat her the same at her high school reunion as they had in school.

R129, I'll pass on apologizing because pathetic is pathetic.

Fat ex-cops? He went to a prep school. They're probably mostly finance bros.

Incredible how some of the tools who are posting here keep INSISTING that people (like me) who think there's nothing wrong with Cooper attending his high school reunions MUST be paid shills, rather than understanding that many people may simply and honestly disagree with their bitter, nasty selves for this bitchy opinion.

maybe he missed his buddies from high school. very simple reason.

Hi Bradley Cooper PR shill at R150!

Did you just earn another $10 for your post?

This thread is one of the most bizarre ones. How dare someone go to their high school reunion. Let’s talk about something that affects none of us endlessly. Weirdos.

R152, this thread is not bizarre, is actually quite in line with a Datalounge thread, you're contributing to this thread so you're also part of the "endlessly" you speak of, and there's nothing weird at all about having an opinion (especially on DL) on a self-involved movie star. Now do fuck off.

He's on the outs here, we've seen his normal dick. The mystique of, is he hung or not is gone and now he's just another average shlub.

I like that Bradley Cooper is paying folks to shill on a website that attracts tens of visitors, mostly basement dwelling non-influential individuals. It tells me he really is determined to leave no stone unturned in his quest for attention. That’s dedication!

Welcome to Datalounge, Miss Bradley Cooper at R155!

Attention whore!!

"Look at me, I'm a normal homosexual"

Faggot!

[quote] Janis Joplin said, when she was on Dick Cavett, that she was going to hers, by saying: "They laughed me out of class, out of town, and out of state--so now I'm going home." For her, it was a fuck-you to the bullies who made her life hell.

And it did not work out for her. She went back in 1970 for her ten-year reunion, unrealistically expecting the people who treated her so badly back then would now respect her and be nice to her, and all they did was treat her like the same freak who had unexpectedly became famous. Supposedly it was absolutely crushing for her. She ODed later that year.

R158 is providing proof that attending high school reunions are dangerous to your mental and physical health, and possibly fatal.

Thanks, R158!

Now, back to Bradley Cooper...

The actual story of Janis Joplin at her high school reunion--not nearly as dire as Miss R158 would have you believe.

Yes, I simply cannot compete with the absolute unimpeachability of the website www.vintag.es as a historical source.

Especially if it doesn't coincide with your version, right, Miss Anonymous R158/R1161?

Maybe it's because he's a nice guy who had good friends in high school and enjoys reconnecting with them every 5 years.

You shills amuse me. Getting close to Christmas, I understand, so every bit of income helps.

He doesn't pay! His agency does.

r133 somebody posted on Facebook the back of his head is in that photo

Who have thought that high schools and reunions were so triggering to those here on DL.

Seriously, R167!

His classmates certainly didn't go out of their way to dress for the occasion.

OP needs to have their meds adjusted for the holiday.

Bradley looks like a ferret.

r169 many high school reunions are casual these days.

We're not shills, we just don't have this bizarre, pathological hatred for certain designated celebs on DL we're told to hate. It just makes me want to defend him more, when before I had no interest whatsoever.

R154. Where is the cock pic?

Alas, as with so many occasions in the US, r172.

Janis Joplin attended her high school reunion even though she was not treated kindly by her classmates while a dtudent.

Tf dtudent

At least three people have now posted separately about Janis Joplin

Why the fuck not?

"Oh I can't go everyone will look at me"

Can you imagine the DRAMA if no one made of fuss over Miss Cooper at the reunion?

[quote] It just makes me want to defend him more, when before I had no interest whatsoever.

What a strange obligation to have, R173--do you really think he needs your defense of him?

[quote] Bradley Cooper bolts from NYC press conference to tend to daughter’s health

NEW YORK — Bradley Cooper was forced to cut short a press conference in Manhattan on Thursday to tend to a sudden health issue involving his daughter.

The “Maestro” star — who was promoting the Leonard Bernstein biopic he co-wrote and directed — learned of the problem when a school nurse phoned the Oscar nominee about 6-year-old Lea.

“So sorry. The school nurse just called me,” he told the crowd, noting he’d have to ditch the event to administer his little girl some medicine that was out of scope for the school. “I have to apply something that they won’t allow.”

It has not yet been revealed what sort of medicine Cooper had to give Lea, nor what happened to necessitate the meds.

The “Nightmare Alley” actor-producer shares custody of Lea — who makes a cameo in “Maestro” as a younger version of one of Bernstein’s daughters — with model Irina Shayk. Cooper and Shayk were together from 2015 to 2019, and have maintained a healthy co-parenting relationship, even spending the holidays and going on vacation together.

“Maestro” is Cooper’s sophomore directorial project, following 2018’s critically acclaimed adaptation of “A Star Is Born,” which scored Cooper three Oscar nominations for best picture, best actor and best adapted screenplay.

“Maestro” has similarly been considered a front-runner for some of the Academy's most sought-after honors, including best picture and director.

“So sorry. The school nurse just called me,” he told the crowd, noting he’d have to ditch the event to administer his little girl some medicine that was out of scope for the school. “I have to apply something that they won’t allow.”

It has not yet been revealed what sort of medicine Cooper had to give Lea, nor what happened to necessitate the meds.

The “Nightmare Alley” actor-producer shares custody of Lea — who makes a cameo in “Maestro” as a younger version of one of Bernstein’s daughters — with model Irina Shayk. Cooper and Shayk were together from 2015 to 2019, and have maintained a healthy co-parenting relationship, even spending the holidays and going on vacation together.

“Maestro” is Cooper’s sophomore directorial project, following 2018’s critically acclaimed adaptation of “A Star Is Born,” which scored Cooper three Oscar nominations for best picture, best actor and best adapted screenplay.

“Maestro” has similarly been considered a front-runner for some of the Academy's most sought-after honors, including best picture and director.

Drama queen Bradley is at it again.

Now using his daughter for publicity.

He rode with me to the hospital

Like an assistant couldn't have taken care of his daughter.

It must have killed him to have to leave a press conference to hype his movie to tend to his daughter.

Hey everyone! Remember me, your old classmate? I'm FAMOUS now! How many movies of mine did you see?

Jeez, people. School nurses are unable to perform some procedures; they are not licensed for it. So the nurses call the parents. One of the parents comes to the school to perform the act the nurse is unable to; then the parent decides what the next course of action is.

Anyone in their right mind will leave anything they are doing to attend to their child. What the hell, R187???

He secretly wanted to hook up with an old high school crush and do the nasty that he didn’t get the opportunity to do in high school. His been saving up his load for 9 days.

[quote] What a strange obligation to have, [R173]--do you really think he needs your defense of him?

Do you really think he cares about anyone's derision of him on this forum?

I couldn't watch Maestro for too long. He tries to the point of unnatural. Why he has that career is beyond me.

I haven't seen him in too much but he was really good in Licorice Pizza (as Jon Peters).

I think Bradley is more than fine as a comedic actor. Maybe that's his stronger genre.

R191, who said otherwise?

R182 You're just twisting what I said. There's no "obligation". I don't know what you're talking about. I don't think he needs my defense of him, nor did I indicate I thought he did. My meaning was clear.

Well, then, R196, feel free to defend this total stranger on a gay gossip site.

R197 You really want to make everyone conform to the way you think, don't you?

No, R198. I just an opinion on Miss Cooper. Sorry that rankles you.

WHO is the shill on here defending Bradley Cooper?

He is indefensible!

Bradley Cooper is a monster.

How is it anyone's business but his and her Mother's?

Why should the go to a high school reunion. What the flying fuck us wrong with some of you people?

Oh hon, might as drop the Mighty Mary Morality act.

You're on a gay gossip forum. You're fooling absolutely no one.

If Bradley saves someone from a burning car, we’ll know that Leann De Vette is back in bidness, Baby!

Oh, are YOU back, R202?

Maybe he saw ROMY AND MICHELE, and hopes to get fucked by his high school's equivalent of Justin Theroux just like Janeane Garofalo did.

r205 is a mental case.

Oh, shut up, you silly twat, R207. You keep banging on about how you're so disgusted that anyone would think anything derogatory about Cooper's high-school reunion nonsense. We got it the first twenty-five times. If you're so above this thread, get the fuck off it.

Cooper is so manly and fem at the same time. I want him.

😂😂🤣🤣, R209

Case in point.

I don't see the scandal. Cooper has money and free time, so why not stay in touch with his old friends? I would if it were so painless.

Her's a bottom and he remembers them all as tops but some have become bottoms since or gotten too fat to perform their duties so his cooter probably left the event itching and twitching!

Is that your best work, R213? Needless to say nobody looks forward to catching up with you at a reunion, you miserable stupid twat.

Give it up Cunt, we are talking about a child's heath not his. It's none of your business.

Hi Bradley @ R214!

How was the reunion?

Was your massive ego validated?

I like BC compared to most of you because I remember his gorgeous thighs during his GlobeTrekker Peruvian bicycle adventure. But let's face it, he even looks itchy.

Moisturize Bradley, every day without fal.

Too late R218.

Bradley is pushing 50.

This is as good as it's gonna get.

Who knew that Miss Cooper had her very own stans
