Bradley Cooper Unleashes on Meghan Markle During Maestro Premiere
In a stunning revelation during a recent interview, Bradley Cooper, the multifaceted star and director of Netflix's upcoming biopic “Maestro,” took aim at Meghan Markle.
The conversation unfolded at the film's premiere, where Cooper reunited with his former co-star Lady Gaga.
The two actors, known for their remarkable chemistry in “A Star Is Born,” engaged in a candid discussion that quickly turned controversial.
Cooper, who portrays the iconic composer Leonard Bernstein in “Maestro,” didn't hold back when discussing Markle.
He claimed that she had expressed jealousy over his project and had even pleaded for a role in the film.
However, Cooper made it clear that he had no intention of casting her.
His frustration was palpable as he described Markle's behavior as whiny and entitled, stating, “She's a joke, a wannabe actress lacking talent, charisma, and class.”
The actor went further, labeling Markle a “parasite” who had used Prince Harry to gain fame and fortune.
He criticized her for preaching about social justice while allegedly mistreating those around her.
“She's a hypocrite,” Cooper said, suggesting that her claims of being a victim were a façade masking her true nature as a bully and a liar.
Cooper's scathing remarks didn't stop there.
He referred to Markle as a disgrace to the monarchy and the British people, arguing that she disrespected tradition and history.
“She's manipulative and self-centered,” he added, emphasizing that her actions were driven solely by a desire for attention and self-promotion.
According to Cooper, Markle's penchant for storytelling had led her to fabricate narratives to undermine the royal family and garner public sympathy.
In stark contrast to his comments about Markle, Cooper showered praise on Lady Gaga, who plays Bernstein's wife Felicia in the film.
He described her as the perfect choice for the role, highlighting their strong chemistry and friendship.
“She's amazing,” he remarked, commending her talent, professionalism, and kindness.
Cooper painted Gaga as a role model, noting her courage, creativity, and dedication to activism.
As Cooper and Gaga discussed their shared excitement for “Maestro,” they emphasized the project's personal significance.
Both actors expressed their admiration for Bernstein and their hope that the film would resonate with audiences and introduce his music to a new generation.
They described the film as a passion project, underscoring their commitment to honoring Bernstein's legacy.
Set to premiere on December 25, 2023, “Maestro” has already garnered significant buzz, with critics and audiences alike praising its artistic merit.
The film is anticipated to be a strong contender during awards season, especially with Cooper's dual role as director and lead actor.
