2022-06-25T06:49:02.825Z


Guest of the Smartless podcast, the actor and director of A Star Is Born, returned to the humiliations he suffered at Hollywood parties.


"I remember thinking, what the fuck is this town?"

.

In a recent episode of the

Smartless

podcast , hosted by American actors Will Arnett, Jason Bateman and Sean Hayes, Bradley Cooper revealed that he has a complex relationship with the world of Hollywood, which he doesn't seem to appreciate.

He tells in particular how, when he had just been nominated for an Oscar for his film

A Star Is Born

, a director he admired at the time had humiliated him during a party in Los Angeles.

Maestro

This musical drama, in which he shares the screen with Lady Gaga, boosted Bradley Cooper's number of Oscar nominations from four (three nominations as an actor and one as a producer for

American Sniper

) to seven (best actor, best original screenplay and best film).

A list of awards which seemed to surprise this director who had then compared it to that of another actress, friend of Bradley Cooper, present at the party:

"What world do we live in if you have seven nominations and she does not has only three?”

.

“You have to be disturbed to do that”

Later in the show, the actor reveals another painful memory.

When he had just been nominated for the 2013 Oscars for his role in

Happiness Therapy,

an actress would have repeated to him, several times in the evening, with a condescending air: "

You deserve this nomination"

, implying that he only deserved this one and not the final victory.

Bradley Cooper remembers thinking,

“What the fuck is this town?

Can you imagine saying that to someone?

You have to be disturbed to do that”

.

Bradley Cooper will soon star in

Maestro

, a biographical film about composer and musician Leonard Bernstein, which he is directing.

If its release, which will be on the Netflix platform, is only scheduled for 2023, the film is already highly anticipated and could be worth a few additional statuettes to add to the actor's list.
