Bradley Cooper and Zoe Saldana are no more! Yes, this news isn’t exactly shocking or anything. But I still feel the need to do a timeline of events! Bradley and Zoe were cast together in The Words, which filmed in the late summer of 2011. Very soon after they got on set together, the tabloids began running reports about Zoe fooling around with B-Coop, which was sketchy because she had a fiancé at the time. Around October/November of last year, Zoe and her fiancé announced their split – they had been together for the better part of a decade, and I said at the time that it looked like Bradley was “the reason” for the split. Then, wouldn’t you know, Bradley and Zoe began stepping out at a couple. In as much as B-Coop ever “steps out” with his lady friends.
Skip ahead a few months, and the bloom is already off the rose, so to speak. Whenever Zoe and Bradley are mentioned in the tabloids, it’s in reference to Zoe pushing for a commitment, and Bradley pushing Zoe towards spending more time with his mother. Sidenote: that’s when you know Bradley is no longer interested – he forces the girl to just spend quality time with his main bro, his mom. So, the last time Zoe and B-Coop were seen together was… the Oscar parties. And now they’re done:
Bradley Cooper is single again. Three months after Cooper, 37, and his Words costar Zoe Saldana, 33, first hooked up, the couple have called it quits, a source confirms to the new issue of Us Weekly.
“They’re definitely not together,” the insider says of the pair, who met while filming the upcoming thriller and were first spotted kissing at a New Year’s Eve bash.
Though Saldana — who split from fiance and love of 10 years Keith Britton in November — was spotted hanging with Cooper’s mom, Gloria, in February, pals say she isn’t too bummed about her breakup.
“She and Bradley weren’t superserious at all,” says a pal of Saldana and Cooper, whose A-list exes include Renee Zellweger, Olivia Wilde, Jennifer Lopez and Beginners actress Melanie Laurent.

Three months? I hope I’ve proven conclusively that they were involved for longer than that. As for it not being “superserious” – uh, Zoe left her lover of a decade to be with Bradley. I tend to think Zoe had expectations. Contractual expectations!
So, whatever. He’ll move on to another “WTF?” lady friend and Zoe will be on every red carpet for a few months, hustling and trying to find an upgrade. In the meantime, let’s just enjoy Bradley’s Oscar pedostache, which I personally blame for the split. Imagine rubbing on that. *shiver*

These co-star hook-ups are just that, it seems…they aren’t relationships, just pr pitstops.
It seems to me kinda like summer camp. You may have a boyfriend or girlfriend at home but while at summer camp (filming a movie) it seems like this new person (co-star) is just so important and life changing and understands you and the word on such a deep level, and you spend inordinate amounts of time together talking about EVERYTHING. Then summer camp (filming) ends, you don’t have your secure sweet boy/girlfriend at home anymore and the luster quickly wears off and you find yourself stuck with an empty, “what did I just do,” feeling. With celebrities it seems no matter how many times they go to summer camp they never figure out the cycle.
Lucky
So true. All these actors in relationships go on movie sets meet a shiny new toy and want to try it out. She broke up a 10 year relationship to get a piece of BC. Was it worth it?
Lucky,
like the analogy! That makes alot of sense.
i guess they realized no one was interested in their hookup lol
It feels like they (their PR teams) tried to make this couple happen — see what it could do not only for the movie, but also for their careers. Since nobody cared, they ended it quickly.
Agreed. I shrugged when they got together and I’m shrugging over their breakup. They tried to make us care and we don’t.
True but they never even appeared in public so they half @ssed this arrangement!! I want my money back!
It was PR Cooper is gay and Zoe is bi…..moving on.
All these professional beards should start some labor union. It would be so much easier.
You got that right!
ouch, bad move on her part to dump her fiance…
Whatevs. These two are so bland.
this girl has been with some good-looking men!
Hmmmmm, maybe she found all the bodies he had buried in his basement. B.C. is first in line when they remake the Ted Bundy story.
Please. Her contract was apparently up. He is SO gay, and she was SO his beard. Next beard in 5, 4, 3, 2….
Exactly, they had a 3-month contract and neither wanted to renew it.
I’m curious (and maybe naive!) but how those PR relationships and contracts work? And is everyone in HW is gay or what? And why does this need to be covered, in 2012???
They would need to pay me good money to accept a bearding position…
Seemed like a low rent bearding arrangement. More like a licensing bearding arrangement, you can attach my name with your name in the press, in the end you are a crazy b so we had to break up. At least Clooney girls get modelling contracts. Zoe should of stayed with her fiance.
You know her fiance is laughing his ass off right about now.
Naw. If she actually thought that other man wanted to marry she would of never left. Men do things like that. Really long engagements can be huge red flags.
Contract expired.
How was he the sexiest mine alive wtf?? hes pudgy and giving me nightmares in that pic. *drinks some scotch
Never bought they were together. I believed he was with Renee, but this one just screamed PR/Bearding.
I do not want to believe BCoop is gay..but this charade has made me a believer.
He always gave me a gay vibe, I’m sure of it.
Bye bye beard.
His list of A-list exes cracks me up. With the exception of Renee, all the others were just super brief pr appearances.
He’s Lucky he got away from her she TOXIC.
Z’s very long engagement without a wedding makes me think that the romance had run its course & BC was a convenient escape/excuse. A lot of relationships endure because of inertia when neither party wants to go through the hassle of a break-up & go it alone.
I still think Zoe looks best covered in blue paint.
she’s beautiful but she looks a bit like E.T.! Ha!
It was an on set fling that got very, very hot then it died out. Nothing new there. Some flings are much shorter no?
I love his eyes and his smile! And I don’t care if he may be gay! I would love to try to convert him!! He was sooo hot in that love scene with Scarlet!
Ever since then, I was like, I want that sparkly-blue-eyed man RIGHT NOW!
She must feel like a fool. She broke up a 10 year relationship for what?
well, if the beard is itching..
I’ve always kind of liked her, but it was a big mistake to dump a ten year relationship like that for a costar. I’m thinking she had hopes of it really going somewhere to do that. And he probably had no such ideas. She probably feels pretty dumb.
There was a rumor a while back that Renee was actually “with” his mother which is why she was often seen w her, and Zoe is bi…. I’m beginning to think maybe these beards are really for his mom…
oww Coopers soooo fake hair transplant, extreem white tooth caps, just not nice.
Cooper was voted the sexiest man alive {but that’s for guys}!!!!!!
Does any-one else feel like ripping a beard off?
