On January 5, the actor turns 46 years old. From a suitcase porter to a Hollywood star – this is Cooper’s path, on which there were many creative victories and, of course, annoying failures.
Did he know, still very young, when he was earning a living in any way, that Leonardo DiCaprio’s suitcase, which he helpfully carry to the room, would be a happy omen? Bradley will be incredibly happy about this unexpected circumstance. Of course, after all, he dragged the luggage of the great Leo and secretly hoped that his glory would touch Cooper and Fortune would tenderly pat the ambitious guy on the head. Bradley was born in Philadelphia to a stockbroker family and was raised in a strict religious tradition. I must say that in household chores, Gloria Cooper was in charge, a woman is quite tough, but fair. Perhaps she instilled in her son a passion for learning.
After graduating from several higher educational institutions and receiving a bachelor of arts degree, Bradley Cooper enters the New York acting school of drama. From that moment on, he makes the final choice in his life: be sure to become a Hollywood star and achieve world fame. The efforts of the young assertive actor are not in vain. In 1999 he got his first, very tiny role in the popular TV series “Sex and the City”. Of course, this was not a success, but just a small satisfaction of creative pride. But the trouble is the beginning, time will pass, Bradley will gain experience and become proficient in the art of acting in order to once show off his skills. This will happen in 2009, when he starred in a number of films, among which it is worth noting the picture of Todd Phillips “The Hangover in Vegas”, where Cooper proved himself to be an outstanding comedian.
After he achieved recognition in Hollywood, fate seemed to tease Cooper. In front of Bradley, the ghost of the coveted “Oscar” constantly looms, and even a little is not enough to feel the weight of the coveted statuette in his own hands. Several nominations for this most prestigious award only fueled Cooper’s ambition (which he managed to satisfy with his directorial work A Star is Born). The personal life of the actor by that time resembled a volcano of passions. The tall, blue-eyed handsome man enjoyed great success with women. Recognized in 2011 by People magazine as the sexiest man in the world, Bradley managed to simultaneously twist love with actresses Zoe Saldana and Renee Zellweger.
Note that at the beginning of his stellar career, he managed to marry dancer Jennifer Esposito and divorce her four months later. For the last time, the irrepressible womanizer managed to win the heart of the famous model Irina Shayk, who gave birth to his daughter Leia. True, Bradley parted with her in a gentlemanly way, with a charming smile and wishing all the best to his former passion. According to rumors, his picky mother often interferes in Cooper’s relations with women.
However, in our opinion, things are different. Just weird Bradley (he likes to eat porridge at night and never wears deodorant) loves success. And women for him are a saving outlet when the creative fuse ends and you need to rest a little in order to recover, gain strength and once again storm the capricious Hollywood.
