Lady Gaga made a striking appearance to commemorate her former co-star Bradley Cooper at the premiere of his latest project, “Maestro.”
The 13-time Grammy winner, aged 37, shared the spotlight with Cooper, 48, and his Maestro co-star, Carey Mulligan, in a photo session before the screening held at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures on Tuesday.
Adding a delightful touch, Cooper’s 6-year-old daughter, Lea De Seine, also partook in the star-studded photo op.
The dynamic duo previously collaborated in the acclaimed 2018 film “A Star Is Born,” where Cooper portrayed a hard-drinking musician who discovers and falls in love with a budding singer, played by Lady Gaga herself.
The film garnered significant acclaim, securing eight Oscar nominations, with Gaga clinching the Best Original Song award for the hit track “Shallow,” which also earned three Grammy awards.
Their on-screen chemistry during the 2019 Oscars performance sparked rumors of a real-life romance, but in a November 2021 interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Cooper clarified that it was a strategic choice to stay in character and ease the anxiety of performing live.

Reflecting on their bond, Cooper expressed gratitude for the enduring friendship forged during the film’s production, stating, “I made a friend for life.”
Lady Gaga reciprocated the sentiment in an Entertainment Weekly interview, acknowledging the transformative impact of the experience and Bradley’s belief in her abilities.
“Watching Bradley work was phenomenal, and then having him believe in me — it gave me more ammunition to believe in myself, and I just feel so blessed to have had that experience,” she remarked.
Cooper, following his directorial success with “A Star is Born,” unveiled his latest project, “Maestro,” in November, with the film delving into the real-life narrative of composer Leonard Bernstein (Cooper) and his relationship with his wife, portrayed by Carey Mulligan. After a select theater premiere, “Maestro” is set to stream on Netflix starting December 20.
