Bradley Cooper Speaks Fluent French. Le Sigh!

Yesterday we swooned over Bradley Cooper‘s 20 Sexiest Looks, today we are dy-ing (Nous sommes morts, right?) over the man parlez-vous-ing in perfect French. It’s as if he sat in that big comfy leather chair in his old Vermont farmhouse (work with us here), and asked himself, while gently stroking both the cashmere scarf around neck and the three-legged rescue dog at his side: “What can I do to appear sexy, sensitive, intelligent and charming all at once? Aha! I’ve got it. I will learn to speak French fluently and then casually drop my skills on a French TV show. My plan is hatched! Now, off to pick fresh herbs from my garden and make pasta from scratch.”

Does it matter what he’s talking about? Probably Hangover 2, but we don’t care. Just close your eyes, sit back and enjoy.

Bradley Cooper’s 20 Sexiest Looks

Bradley Cooper does things to us. It’s that slightly cocky vibe he rocks so well — the stubble, the gelled hair, the closed mouth smile. He’s a gentleman, sure, but it feels like there’s a slightly dirty side lurking right below the surface, and that’s the side of BCoop that gets under our skin. The guy’s got major box office swagger; Hangover 2 had the biggest Memorial Day opening of all time ($137 million) and the biggest opening for a comedy, ever. But he’s also the kinda guy who dates a fellow movie star for two years and never says a peep about it. Such an enigma, this one. To top it off, he is always put together no matter the occasion. Perfectly pleated pants, expertly tousled hair, a casual scarf draped gently around his neck. Whoever dresses Bradley knows a sea of lusting eyes await him at every event, and boy does the dude deliver. His 20 Sexiest Looks await you below.

The Hangover Part III Is Already Being Written

Considering The Hangover Part II had been optioned before the first was even released, it’s not shocking to discover that Craig Mazin, who co-scripted the sequel, has been signed to write a third film. While there’s been some conjecture about the Wolf Pack heading to Amsterdam, we’re only into that concept if the trio run into Harold & Kumar for a mutual trilogy closer. But considering Warner Bros. exec Jeff Robinov announcing that he has dreams about a fourth Hangover movie, it doesn’t seem likely the new film will be quite so final—even if director Todd Phillips has suggested he’d like it to be.

While Ken Jeong is definitely up for another go-round (“Those guys are like family to me, so it doesn’t matter—big part or small part…Well, I guess I know a thing or two about small parts”), the primary trio have yet to announce their excitement. Will Ed Helms, Zack Galifianakis and Bradley Cooper all be into another run, or will someone get choosy/greedy? Will a third movie be radically different in tone or another wedding-related adventure in an exotic locale? As long as the box office doesn’t drop precipitously after Part II‘s blockbuster Memorial Day weekend, we should find out sooner than later.

Bradley Cooper Scores Another “Dinner Date”: Olivia Wilde!

Bradley Cooper needs to stop being such a dinner slut—gossipmongers can’t keep up with all the beautiful stars he dares to spend time in public with. According to Life & Style, Olivia Wilde has joined Jennifer Aniston and Jessica Biel in Brad’s Rolodex, with the pair getting close at the Hangover Part II premiere party and after last weekend’s SNL! “Olivia was Bradley’s date,” says their source about the Hangover jam. “He was always taking her hand or putting his hand on her lower back, it was really sweet. He took care of her all night.” What about Stacey from Cannes, though? Who took care of her?

If you’re thinking “hey, Justin Timberlake hosted SNL last week…and I thought he was dating Olivia Wilde!”…a) you sure know a lot of ridiculous gossip crap, and b) yeah, it sounds like that after-jam must have been quite the Biel-infuriating cuddle-fest. Hmm…Justin chasing Olivia, Bradley chasing Olivia…maybe Brad should have sang “3-Way (Golden Rule)” with JT on the show.

Kristen Bell Makes Out With A Lady (Monkey) At The Hangover II Premiere

Every bro must be jealous of Dax Shepard right now…his fiancee is such a freak she’ll make out with another lady on the red carpet! Baller! Granted, Kristen Bell was tongued by monkey named Crystal who stars in The Hangover II, but it’s still pretty awesome. Other awesome sights at the film’s premiere last night in LA were a happy Robert Downey Jr., a pregnant Alyssa Milano, and Ken Jeong‘s wife, the subject of his unsurprisingly insane, surprisingly touching “Best WTF Moment” MTV Movie Award speech. After all, if it wasn’t for her brave battle with cancer, we never would have seen his wee penis in the first movie.

Bill Clinton Wants A Cameo In A-Team 2, Says Bradley Cooper

We aren’t experts on this kind of thing, but it seems like a Bill Clinton A-Team 2 cameo is just the former president’s way of experiencing the perks of being back in office: helicopter rides, staring down despots, all the cigars you could possibly want. As Hangover Part II‘s Bradley Cooper tells Entertainment Weekly, when Clinton stopped by the set, getting a photo op with Zach Galifianakis was the last thing on his mind. “The first thing he said when he sat down was, ‘Is there going to be an A-Team 2–and can I be in it?,’” Cooper laughs. “I was like,’‘This is a joke, right?’” Do you remember this man’s presidency, Cooper? Virtually the only difference will be the number of gold chains his cabinet has on.

While Bill Clinton’s Hangover Part II cameo is unfortunately just a rumor, we are completely on board with Bill stopping by or, hell, even starring in the film. After all, if he’s a terrible actor, they can just fire him. The man’s been impeached; there’s not a lot that would throw him for a loop.

Is Bradley Cooper Ditching The Crow To Play The Devil In Paradise Lost?

Sounds like somebody wants an image change. Last month, we heard that Bradley Cooper was aching to play The Crow in a rebooting of the undead superhero franchise, and now Variety reports that Cooper is looking to sign on with a 3D adaptation of John Milton‘s epic poem Paradise Lost (you know, that one Donald Sutherland was nattering about in Animal House). Cooper, naturally, would be playing the devil—having already rocked horns as Bill Zebub in a NSFW Stella sketch pictured above, back when Brad was just glad to get a recurring role on Alias (that’s Julie Bowen licking him, FYI).

Paradise Lost will be directed by Alex Proyas, who previously directed Know1ng (which figures) and the original Crow movie that Bradley would be remaking. Considering Proyas called the plans for a new Crow film “ridiculous” in 2009, it’d be impressive if Cooper manages to score such juicy roles with both projects. Then again, far stranger things have happen in Hollywood—like multiple Snow White movies, for one thing.

New Hangover Part II Character Posters Look Like Sweaty, Regrettable Fun

If the Hangover Part II trailer didn’t give you enough of a sense of what the sequel, opening May 26, will be like, the new Hangover Part II character posters really convey the grimy, panicky good times in store for the Wolfpack. In the promo ads, Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms, Justin Bartha, Ken Jeong and Zach Galifiankis are joined by the film’s break-out star, an adorable monkey in a jean vest. Add to these photos the fact that director Todd Phillips commissioned an original Hangover Part II song from Glenn Danzig, plus the news that The Notebook director Nick Cassavetes is replacing Liam Neeson in the role of a grody tattoo artist, and we’re counting on the movie being one filthy, nearly hallucinatory good time.

Rumor We Love: Jennifer Aniston “In Contact” With Bradley Cooper—Oooh!

Are two former co-stars the paparazzi once spotted getting a meal daring to try again two years later? Sexy times! People is all aflutter over news that Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Aniston are acknowledging each other’s existence. After all, Cooper has split with Renee Zellweger and Jennifer is so eligible magazines act like they’re worried she won’t give them grandchildren. “Jen always had a soft spot for Bradley, and she thinks he is very attractive and charming. Jen appreciates that Bradley is low-key, loves dogs and is focused on his movie career.” Hey, we like all those things about him too—that must mean we’re dating Bradley Cooper!

Sure, Bradley said she was “simply, simply, just a friend,” after they were spotted after dinner in June 2009. “She’s someone who is super, super known. If someone says hello to her, it’s given that he’s fallen in love with her. So, no. No. She’s a very, very interesting woman, but she’s simply a friend.” But if People‘s source says he “plans to spend time” with her again, he obviously must have changed his mind and realized they were meant for each other. Either that or he wants to make He’s Still Just Not That Into You.
