PunkTheFunk 124,445 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga, a Match Made in Relevance Heaven By Sam Donsky (https://theringer.com/bradley-cooper-lady-gaga-4da6ef127add#.vevtdygkr) Warner Bros. has decided to remake A Star Is Born, with Lady Gaga to star and Bradley Cooper to direct. Downgrading from Beyoncé and Clint Eastwood to Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper is like downgrading from Beyoncé and Clint Eastwood to Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper. No matter: I’m going to go out on a limb and say I’m ALL IN on this one. It’s hard to know if Gaga is popular right now: I still have “Applause” on my phone, which I think technically makes me family. As for Cooper: He’s been “back” for about a year now — 2015’s Jacket Trilogy (Aloha, the French Open, and Burnt) saw him receive career-best jacket notices — but there’s “back” … and then there’s back. The truth is, neither Gaga nor Cooper is really setting the world aflame on their own. Which is why this announced collaboration feels so full of promise. With Gaga in tow, Cooper might finally achieve his true destiny: of being a real-deal, all-systems-go, hedge-free TRY-HARD. Because say what you will about Gaga … there is perhaps no more eminent or pure of a try-hard in the entire history of pop. And there is no one who has pivoted harder, over these past several years, away from the trap of “the artist as casual genius” and onto steadier ground: toward “the artist as hustler.” Seven years ago, it seemed like Gaga wanted to be Madonna: mystery celebrity, magic eight-ball of singles, performative genius from on high. But at some point, and I think for the better, Gaga’s M.O. changed: Weirdo cameos? She’s in. TV supporting role? OK. ****ing … Tony Bennett collaborative jazz album? Let’s do it. Oscars? She can clear her schedule. Fifth studio album? Yep, but when she’s ready. I don’t know, maybe this is reaching. But this version of Gaga just seems to “get it” — no matter what “it” is. Gaga in 2016 seems to understand that pop is built on smaller victories: That it’s less the playground of geniuses than a job like any other. And that all you can do at your job, in the end, is hustle your ass off and try. “No more jackets,” I imagine her telling Cooper their first day onset. I’ll miss them but thank god. .....

Bradley 59,150 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 What did he mean by Bradley Cooper's jacket trilogy? What does jacket mean here? Btw Clint Eastwood is the one who suggested Bradley to take on his first directing role. Beyonce left because of Lemonade and its tour. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
