Bradley Cooper finally reveals if he’s had plastic surgery — after ‘weeks’ of rumors

Bradley Cooper’s pals are backing him.

The “Silver Linings Playbook” star, 51, finally revealed whether he has undergone plastic surgery during an episode of Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes and Will Arnett’s “Smartless” podcast released on Jan. 5.

Arnett brought up the cosmetic surgery rumors surrounding Cooper while discussing one thing fans might not know about the “Maestro” actor.

“Well, there’s a lot,” Arnett, 55, began. “And then I was gonna say, because we keep reading everybody thinks that Bradley’s had plastic surgery.”

“Everybody keeps saying that,” the comedian continued. “I’m like, ‘What people don’t know is that he hasn’t.’ Right?”

After Bateman, 56, chimed in to clarify that Cooper “hasn’t” had plastic surgery, the “A Star Is Born” director stepped up to address the matter himself.

“No,” Cooper told the co-hosts. “I get people [coming] up to me the last couple of weeks. They’re like, ‘Oh, you look good!’ Yeah, but it’s a crazy–.”

Arnett, however, cut his longtime friend off before Cooper could finish his sentence.

“But it did make me think…it made me mad because people say that all the time, and it’s a hilarious thing,” the “Arrested Development” alum declared. “Everybody thinks that they know. You know, you read that bulls–t stuff.”

The rumors that Cooper had plastic surgery started last year when the actor-turned-filmmaker stepped out to begin promoting his and Arnett’s newest movie, “Is This Thing On?”

Fans rushed to social media shortly after to speculate why he looked so different, while others suggested he received “eyelid surgery,” a “brow lift” and “fillers.”

“Bradley Cooper still killing it on the red carpet!” one person wrote on X on Oct. 11. “Style on point, regardless of the plastic surgery chatter.”

“Whoa, WTF is going on with lovable famous men and plastic surgery?” added another. “First Keanu Reeves tore apart his own face. Now Bradley Cooper does something to his own eyes. There’s vanity even in nice people.”

“Women get a lot of s–t from people whenever they get plastic surgery but how have we not brought up Bradley Cooper?” commented a third.

But this wouldn’t be the first time that the “Hangover” star came under fire for his transformed look.

Cooper caused controversy when he utilized heavy prosthetics to portray the legendary composer Leonard Bernstein in the 2023 biopic “Maestro.”

Although Cooper ultimately defended his decision to use a prosthetic nose to play the famed Jewish conductor, critics argued that the added appendage was antisemitic.

“I thought, ‘Maybe we don’t need to do it,’” Cooper told “CBS Mornings” amid the controversy. “But it’s all about balance, and, you know, my lips are nothing like Lenny’s, and my chin. And so we had that, and it just didn’t look right [without the prosthetic].” 

He added, “The truth is … I’d done this whole process out of love, and it’s so clear to me where I come from.”

Cooper, who shares a daughter with ex-girlfriend Irina Shayk, made headlines more recently in connection with his two-year relationship with Gigi Hadid.

An insider close to the couple claimed that the Marvel star asked Hadid’s mother, Yolanda, for the model’s hand in marriage.

“Her mom, Yolanda, is on board, so that was a no-brainer,” the source told Daily Mail last month. “But Gigi telling her father [Mohamed Hadid] she wants to marry Bradley is a big step, it’s much more official.”
