Comments on: Bradley Cooper in Esquire, is he a tool or is this lazy journalism? http://www.celebitchy.com/160125/bradley_cooper_in_esquire_is_he_a_tool_or_is_this_lazy_journalism/ Stylish celebrity escapism Wed, 19 Jun 2013 05:47:13 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: jemshoes http://www.celebitchy.com/160125/bradley_cooper_in_esquire_is_he_a_tool_or_is_this_lazy_journalism/#comment-4434428 jemshoes Wed, 01 Jun 2011 00:01:31 +0000 http://www.celebitchy.com/?p=160125#comment-4434428 This is the strangest interview I've read in a while. Instead of drawing her subject out, the journalist makes him even more self-conscious and wary - even annoyed. That's not lazy journalism - it's BAD journalism, and unprofessional. And results in a bad interview. Bradley Cooper may be a tool, but in this interview the journalist comes out looking like the bigger one in the shed, unfortunately.

And he doesn't look like he's really enjoying being pawed. I like the drink of water picture. The cover is tacky. And he doesn’t look like he’s really enjoying being pawed.

He knows BC and knows better than to pander. I get interviewed a lot and I am often silly and then take myself too seriously. I liked the comment that he/she judges him by how he/she likes his movies. The fact that he played a stuck-up social climber in the Owen Wilson movie only proves he can act. I give all actors a wide open space until I see their movies and then I bark and bray that I have seen a stinker. Lighten up. BC is obviously a nice enough guy with JD to prove it. Magazine profiles are no measure of the man--take my word for it. I agree with JD. He knows BC and knows better than to pander.

Creepy with a capital C...those ladies are well beyond the cougar stage. Even more inappropriate given the fact he talks about moving his mom in with him. Ick!

Also the interviewer seems amateurish. I feel ba for Bradley - if he is a douche then he is a douche but this article seems to be mocking him without a lot of direct quotes to back it up.

He is one of the nicest, humblest guys in Hollywood you'd ever meet. He's as astounded by his success as anyone, and he's reacting to massive amounts of attention the best way a down-to-Earth person would. The attention is actually embarrassing, but he has to say SOMETHING or he'll come off ungrateful, which he's not. This Esquire piece is unfair. I know the guy, and he's not a douche. Seems there has to be a "backlash" at some point...and it's just Hollywood bulls*it. I’ve hung out w/ Brad Cooper many times because I share a mutual friend with Renée Z.

That show asks pretty deep questions too. I heard an interview with him on Terry Gross’ show on NPR and he sounded fairly down to earth and even humble. That show asks pretty deep questions too.

Yuck. I caught parts of Wedding Crashers the other day, and he is perfectly cast as an upper crust douchebag. It's really hard for me to separate him from that character. But if it's true that he moved his mom in with him, then he must be sweet. There was a piece on him over the weekend on the HuffPo, and most comments were about his sexuality; and when they weren't, they were still pretty negative. The guy can't get any love.
