Movie Reviews and Previews TIFF Review: A Star is Born Even though this is the FOURTH iteration of the classic Hollywood rags-to-riches fable A Star is Born, I will do my best not to spoil it because apparently some of you took exception when Lainey let fly with the ending.

Baby and Bump Obsession Bradley Cooper’s family campaign As mentioned yesterday, A Star is Born world premieres in Venice tonight and we’ll have a solid idea then how far it can go during award season.

Movie Reviews and Previews Well, now I get it Bradley Cooper’s A Star Is Born was initially scheduled for the end of September this year. Then they moved it up to May.

Bad Style Bradley Cooper & Irina Shayk: First Met Carpet First any carpet, actually. Bradley Cooper and Irina Shayk have both been at the Met Gala together. But they’ve never walked the carpet at the Met Gala together. It’s only taken them three years and a child. I’m curious about what this means. A Star Is Born By Lainey • May 08, 2018 07:58 am

Chinese Squawking Chicken Bradley Cooper: a Tiger for the Eagles A lot of people last night were mentioning (or at least alluding to) Silver Linings Playbook because of Bradley Cooper.

There was a By Lainey • Feb 05, 2018 12:58 pm
Baby and Bump Obsession Bradley & Irina’s happy hand-holding Bradley Cooper and Irina Shayk were photographed leaving a medical building in LA yesterday. According to the paps, the medical building “specialises in pregnancy”. And they look happy. So…? Wait, the entire building specialises in pregnancy? It’s possible that there are other medical specalisations in the building, right? Like, By Lainey • Jan 30, 2018 02:42 pm

Movie Reviews and Previews Bradley’s Star moves up Bradley Cooper’s directorial debut, A Star Is Born, was originally scheduled for September 28, 2018. Fall film releases are typically considered to be more “serious”. And some thought that it could make the rounds during festival season, perhaps in position for an awards run. It was announced a couple By Lainey • Sep 25, 2017 11:36 am
BFFs Jake knows about Taylor’s… music Stronger, starring Jake Gyllenhaal as Boston marathon bombing survivor Jeff Bauman, opens this weekend. Click here for my thoughts on the film after its TIFF world premiere. To promote Stronger, Jake and Jeff interviewed each other which turns into Jeff giving Jake sh-t, kinda like Zach Galifianakis’s Between By Lainey • Sep 19, 2017 10:54 am
BFFs Leo & Bradley’s day at the beach Leonardo DiCaprio and Bradley Cooper hung out this weekend at Leo’s place in Malibu. My favourite photo in this series is one of Leo checking his phone.
