Bradley Cooper impressed everyone with his singing chops in A Star Is Born, but that doesn’t mean he’ll be hitting the road with Lady Gaga to continue promoting the movie’s music. Instead, he has another plan to reunite with his co-star and keep the buzz about the movie going! “What I thought would be a cool thing to do is, one night, is a live reading of the movie, of the script, and sing all the songs as you’re reading the script,” Bradley explained on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. “Like at the Hollywood Bowl or something. That would be cool, right?” UMMM, yes!
Keep in mind, there are no actual plans for this production at this time, but Bradley has officially put it into the universe. During the interview, he also opened up about how nervous he was to perform “Shallow” with Gaga at the Oscars in the days leading up to the show. However, he admitted that right before the performance he was chill because of how hard he worked to get to that point. “I just worked really hard and Lady Gaga is so supportive,” he gushed. “But it was terrifying, absolutely. Because I’m not a singer and didn’t sing before this movie. So it was really crazy. But it just shows you…if you do work really hard and you’re with supportive people, then you can do things you never dreamed possible.”
A Star is Born was nominated for eight awards at the Oscars, and took home one win for Best Original Song. Bradley and Gaga also won for Best Pop/Duo Performance at the Grammys, while “Shallow” took home “Best Song Written for Visual Media.”
In addition to starring and singing in A Star is Born, Bradley also directed the movie. Watch his full interview with Ellen above!
