Bradley Cooper brought his mum Gloria Campano as his date to the Oscars, rather than girlfriend Gigi Hadid.
But an insider had later stated that Gigi would not be supporting her boyfriend at the Oscars and would instead be spending time with daughter Khai, whom she shares with Zayn Malik. "Bradley and Gigi are both genuinely so happy. They’re having a great time together, doing well as a couple, and co-parenting healthily on both sides," another source told Entertainment Tonight.
Bradley is nominated for Best Actor for his role as Leonard Bernstein in Maestro, a film he also directed. And as one of the film's producers, he will also take to the stage if the film wins the gong for Best Film. The actor sparked controversy over the film due to his use of a prosthetic nose to portray the Jewish composer Leonard Bernstein. Many social media users expressed their concerns over the size and exaggerated nature of the prosthetic nose, suggesting that it perpetuates stereotypes.
