Hey.

I read the magoozines. This is my story.

Bradley Cooper, auteur, has really been on one during the press tour for A Star Is Born. Watch him say things like “I’ve really been awakened to the phenomenon of singing,” then watch it again because, hey, I just wanted to take another look at you.

We can’t stop thinking about A Star is Born—2018's remake of the 1976 remake of the 1954 remake of the 1937 film (itself conspicuously similar to a 1932 film), but fortunately, there’s a lot to explore.

A Star Is Born dragged my heart all around for months and months before I could even experience it. On paper, it sounded like a disaster: a vanity project from Bradley Cooper (who in addition to starring would be making his writer/director debut) featuring Lady Gaga (whose prior acting was mostly wooden, Golden Globe…

If it seemed like A Star Is Born was christened a classic before it was even released, that’s because yes, the movie has been impossible to escape. There’s been months of marketing, memes, and a wealth of press (a lot of it from this website), throughout which Bradley Cooper somehow graduated from hottest man alive to …

The question you should be asking of the upcoming film A Star Is Born is not “Can Lady Gaga act?” (because I already think she can) but rather “Can Bradley Cooper direct?”

A star—Bradley Cooper—is soon to be born. And he’s not just as an actor, not just a Lady Gaga discoverer or People’s “un-fuckable” 2011 Sexiest Man (his words), not just a millionaire dedicated to perpetuating the myth that he’s a perennial “underdog... not a leading man” (once again, straight from his mouth.) No.…

YES!!! I’M IN THE SHA-HAAAA SHA-HAAA-LOW!: Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper, “Shallow” — The full-length song and video for the record that will rule our lives until the end of time (or at least, till the end of 2018 and throughout awards season) has been released, and this is just the tip of the iceberg of a soundtrack…

A Star Is Born comes out October 5, but Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga will probably be singing each other’s praises until the end of time, for they have been fawning over each other in the press for so long that I cannot remember a time or era when they did not know each other’s names.

Of all the naysayers who spat at the idea of another remake of A Star Is Born, it turns out Pearl Jam’s Eddie Vedder was one of the most vocal. In an interview with Yahoo! Entertainment, Bradley Cooper, a star who was born, explained that his performance in the movie is inspired by Vedder, who “thought it was crazy I…

Lady Gaga looked absolutely aahhhhhhhhAHHHHHahhhhaaaaaaaa ahhhhhhAHahhhaAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHgreatat the Los Angeles premiere of A Star is Born Monday night.

Bradley Cooper, the star and co-writer/director of the upcoming third remake of A Star Is Born, said in a recent interview that he was unaware of the sexual harassment allegations against one of the people credited as producer on his movie, the notorious Jon Peters.

The A Star Is Born press circuit has been extremely tear-stained and this week is no different. Mind you these are exalted tears of intense appreciation for fellow cast mates tinged with bittersweet emotions, for they cannot help but contrast the inexplicable joy of being part of the A Star Is Born cast with all that…

Listen, I know that Bradley Cooper is with Irina Shayk, a very tall and beautiful Russian model, but I want to believe that in an alternate universe, he and Lady Gaga spend their afternoons nurturing a deep connection that is strengthened only by their love for the dramatic.

I am thankful that A Star Is Born exists. I am grateful for Lady Gaga singing “HAAAA-A-AAA-AAA-AAAAAAA.” I feel blessed by Bradley Cooper’s Chris Stapleton drag. And now, confusingly, I want Bradley Cooper to growl tenderly in my general direction as he sensually touches my nose.

I really really do know who Halsey is by this point (a singer of songs I literally can’t remember though I just listened to a bunch of them just now, it’s a work-in-progress), but how does she fit into the A Star Is Born remake starring Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga?

We are exactly one month out from one of the most significant cultural events of our generation: the release of Bradley Cooper’s remake of a remake of (depending on how you interpret things, another remake of) A Star Is Born, starring not Stefani Germanotta (the name I once predicted she’d use), but Lady Gaga herself.

This week at the Venice Film Festival, celebrities have been boating around and walking red carpets and probably chatting about functional air conditioning and other glamorous things which are above the commoners. As evidenced from this year’s humongous red carpet gowns, they also appear to have brought an army of…
