Bradley Cooper stars in a brand new Haagan Dazs ice cream commercial, and I can’t stop giggling. Of course, no one can really blame the guy for cashing in, but this how he chooses to use his newfound Oscar nomination glory? Most actors in Bradley’s current state of career advancement at least pop over to Japan to “secretly” shoot a whiskey or camera commercial and reserve stateside endorsements for a decade or so down the road. No matter though, because this ad spot is amazing and awe-inspiring in its crazy-eyed glory — who invites a serial killer to a party, and why would said guest bring ice cream along for the ride?

Of course, BCoop immediately loses interest in his ice cream once he spots a beautiful young victim lady who can’t stop staring. For my part, I’m equally amused and captivated by Bradley’s ability to resist ice cream in favor of trying to get some.

Bradley does a relatively convincing job at appearing shocked and disappointed when his prospective lady swoops in and swipes his ice cream. Then he realizes that she doesn’t need the spoon and can merely use her fingers instead, and he laughs merrily. What a great sport, and what a gloriously hilarious commercial.

In other BCoop news, he (as Kaiser noted this morning) quickly boarded Natalie Portman’s ill-fated project, Jane Got a Gun, before immediately thinking better of it and quitting the film. BCoop also made a quick cameo on this week’s episode of “SNL” in a really weird skit called the “Jennifer Aniston Look-Alike Contest.” Basically, Bradley, Zack Galifiantis, and Ed Helms all flaunted ridiculous Aniston wigs, and it was pretty dumb, but Bradley gave a good “Hayy gurrl” face, and you can see a photo and get video details at Pajiba. For the moment, I’m still focusing on this ridiculously amusing Haagan Dazs promo. BCoop made it a memorable one.
