Fantasy becomes reality: Bradley Cooper and Zoe Saldana are rumoured to be dating after they filmed scenes for upcoming movie The Words earlier this year


She became the envy of millions of women worldwide when photographs emerged of her locking lips with Bradley Cooper for upcoming movie The Words earlier this year.

And Zoe Saldana better get used to being the focus of the actor's jealous female fans, as it has now been claimed the pair have become more than just friends following their celluloid hook up in June.

A source has claimed the pair have started to tell their friends and family that they are in a relationship, and were planning to spend the holidays together on a skiing break in the Rockies.


The source told E! News: 'They are totally dating.'

The claims come just months after the pair first sparked rumours they had taken their friendship to the next level following a picture of the couple together at a New York nightclub.

At the time, a representative for Avatar actress Saldana denied the claims.

The rumoured relationship comes just a month after Saldana and fiancé Keith Britton announced they had amicably split after 11 years together.

Smitten: The pair had looked very comfortable as they shot the scenes in June


The pair had revealed their engagement in June 2010 when Saldana said she felt entrepreneur Britton was the only person who knew 'the real Zoe.'

She had previously said of Britton: 'I feel like the partners that stay at home, they have their lives, but they’re the ones that are living with the real you.

'I think that they need to be recognised, every now and then, every 10 years, just come out in public - put him on the spot and just say thank you.

'He’s a very independent soul. He understands what I do, but this is not what he fell in love with and that’s what I love.'

Meanwhile, Cooper, who was voted People magazine's Sexiest Man Alive earlier this year, has recently been linked to French actress Melanie Laurent following a rumoured dalliance with Jennifer Lopez.

By Ann Pride


Making his mother proud: Bradley Cooper made sure to take his mum Gloria along as he got in a game of tennis yesterday in Studio City, California


When he's not spending time with the bevy of beauties he has been linked with, Bradley Cooper prefers to be in the company of his mother.

The Hollywood heartthrob was spotted arriving at a tennis club yesterday in the Studio City neighbourhood of Los Angeles with his beloved mum Gloria in tow.

The 36-year-old, who was recently named People Magazine's Sexiest Man Alive, makes a point to maintain maintain his fit physique, and what better way to do it than with a game of tennis.


Bradley has previously romanced Renee Zellweger, Jennifer Aniston and he was rumoured to have shared few dates with Jennifer Lopez.

But it looks like he may have another lovely lady in his life, after he was spotted out and about in Paris last month with French actress Melanie Laurent.

The Hangover star, who is fluent in French, was spotted enjoying a romantic evening in the City of Lights with the Inglourious Basterds beauty

Cooper, also recently revealed he began to polish his skills with the ladies way back in high school, by trying to date every girl he met.

He said: 'I was like most kids. You're trying to figure out who you want to be, who you are pretending to be, who you are, but I was never in one group.

'I never really had a home, a clique. I was freelance and tried to date women in every group.'

Match point: Bradley prepared to served up his best tennis game

But Bradley admits his habit of chewing tobacco can sometimes put women off.

He told Reveal magazine: 'My favourite habit is chewing tobacco. I quit it, but for some reason, no matter how many women tells me it's disgusting, deep down I still think, 'You love it. You want a real man.'

Although it's a wonder when he finds time for romance.

Incognito: Bradley wore a hat and tried to blend in Friday as he met friends for lunch in West Hollywood, California


The star currently has five movies in the works, including The Silver Linings Playbook co-starring Julia Stiles, Chris Tucker and Robert De Niro.

Earlier this month in an interview with Irish TV host Graham Norton, Cooper also confirmed that a third installment of The Hangover is in the works.

He said: 'We adhered to the formula in the second one, for those of you who’ve seen it, and the third one, which would close the whole sort of trilogy, which now it would be a trilogy — even though we thought we would never make a second one, let alone anybody see the first one — I think it will take place in Los Angeles and maybe not adhere to the structure.

'It might be different,' he added.

Complete rubbish: Bradley Cooper shows off some strange fashion sense by wearing a bin bag on set of his new film

By Laura Schreffler


Bin bag Bradley: Bradley Cooper wears an odd ensemble on the set of Silver Linking Playbook in Ridley Park, Pennsylvania today


Bradley Coper looks good no matter what he's wearing, even if his ensemble happens to include a bin liner.

The 36-year-old actor displayed some odd fashion sense while wearing what appeared to be a trash bag over his clothing today in Ridley Park, Pennsylvania.

He's currently shooting David O. Russell's new comedy, The Silver Linings Playbook, a big screen adaptation of Matthew Quick's hit novel.

The star typically looks dapper in snazzy suits and designer duds, but he looked a little worse for the wear in a grey, two-piece track suit today with the bin liner on top.

Then again, his character is meant to have spent four years in a mental institution.

Bradley is playing Pat Peoples, a former teacher who moves back in with his mother and tries

After spending four years in a mental institution, a former teacher moves back in with his mother and tries to reconcile with his ex-wife after a failed suicide attempt.

According to Quick's website, he 'formulates a theory about silver linings: he believes his life is a movei produced by God, his mission is to become physically fit and emotionaly supportive, and his happy ending will be the return of his estranged wife Nikki.'

Oscar nominee Jennifer Lawrence will play a young woman who pursues Pat once he's back in his New Jersey hometown. Robert DeNiro and Julia Stiles also co-star.

Silver linings might be Cooper's new catchphrase: this has been his year to shine. He won the role of Pat after Mark Wahlberg had to drop out due to scheduling conflicts.

He is also reportedly dating one of the world's most beautiful women, American Idol judge Jennifer Lopez.

Additionally, his Hollywood star is continuing to rise.

Limitless, the first film he carried alone, opened to huge numbers back in March, while his ensemble comedy, The Hangover, Part II set a record for R-rated comedies at the box office.

He has also recently shot The Place Beyond The Pines with Ryan Gosling and will play Lucifer in Paradise Lost.

He is also currently writing a script for the big screen adaptation of Dan Simmons' science fiction Hyperion novel.

Something to hide Jennifer? 'Lopez shields her face after being caught out with Bradley Cooper'

By Dianne King


Jennifer Lopez has never been known to be shy and retiring.

But a woman who is said to be the American Idol judge was surprisingly coy while out with Bradley Cooper yesterday.

She shielded her face as she sat in the passenger seat of Cooper's car as they drove around Los Angeles.

Bradley initially covered his face too but ultimately had to reveal himself to keep his eyes on the road while in control of the jeep.

The woman, who was casual with her hair in a ponytail and wore a light brown sweater was careful about her face not being seen with the Hangover star.

However a source told People magazine that Lopez and Cooper spent time together on Saturday although reps for both Hollywood stars did not respond to MailOnline for a comment on the matter.

The actor picked up the Best Thriller Award at last night's Scream Awards so maybe Lopez was on hand to help him celebrate.

Peek-a-boo: Photographers identified the woman as Jennifer Lopez although her full face was not captured

Lopez, 42, and Cooper, 37, have been seen together before but maintained that it was just a professional meeting.

They had dinner at Per Se restaurant in the Big Apple last month.

'After their date in New York, Bradley and Jennifer stayed in touch,' an insider told the magazine.

'She does like his attention and it makes her feel good that he seems so into her.
She has a fun time with Bradley and he makes her laugh. She likes him.'

Meanwhile TMZ are reporting that the pair are dating 'casually' but are 'definitely dating'.

Sources told the site that although they are not in a serious relationship and calling each other boyfriend and girlfriend, they are spending quality time together.

Jennifer ended her seven-year marriage to Latin singer Marc Anthony earlier this year and the former couple have three-year-old twins Max and Emme.

Bradley's two-year-relationship with Renee Zellweger came to a halt in March.

He has also been linked with Olivia Wilde and Jennifer Aniston in the past.

Bridget Bones: Super-slim Renee Zellweger proudly shows off her muscular back in sheer gold gown at Met Gala

By Sarah Bull


Muscular: Renee Zellweger proudly showed off her bony back at the Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute gala in New York last night


She has famously battled with her weight after piling on the pounds to play Bridget Jones.

But it seems Renee Zellweger is finally happy with her figure, judging by pictures of her at the Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute gala in New York last night.

The 42-year-old actress showed off her super-slim frame in a backless gold Carolina Herrera gown as she attended the prestigious fashion event.

However, perhaps Renee didn't check her back view in the mirror before she walked the red carpet, as the sheer dress drew attention to her incredibly bony, muscular back.

Daring: Renee's pretty gold Carolina Herrera gown featured a V-back and drew attention to Renee's slim physique


Her shoulder blades looked very prominent in the gown - a sure sign Renee has been working hard in the gym to hone her muscular physique.

But newly-single Renee looked thrilled with the outfit, posing so photographers could snap ever angle of the shimmering dress.

And, to ensure the backless gown was displayed to its full potential, Renee even wore her hair in an up 'do so the back view wasn't obscured in any way.

Every angle: Renee even wore her hair up so all attention was focused on her bony back


The Cold Mountain actress is no stranger to attracting criticism for her weight, after taking the weight loss too far following her portrayal of singleton Bridget Jones.

Renee was famously paid a bonus sum on top of her £9.5 million (USD$15m) paycheck for every pound she gained for the movie's sequel Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason in 2004.

The actress is said to have gained 20 pounds for the 2001 original and 30 pounds for the sequel.

But, after finishing the movies, Renee hit the gym with a vengeance to shed the weight, and has continued to work out virtually every day to maintain her slim figure.

While there was talk recently of the possibility of a third Bridget Jones film being made, it was reported Renee is thinking of wearing a fat suit if she takes on the role again because she is too concerned about the health implications of her yo-yo dieting.

Talking recently about how her body has been affected by her ever-changing weight, Renee said: 'Can I just tell you my body is whacked by the time we finish one of those!

'It doesn't know what has happened because it thinks there's supposed to be a baby and there's no christening.'

'Did you see that movie about fast food, Supersize Me?

'I had a panic attack with all the specialists talking about how bad this is for you, long term, putting on that much weight in short periods of time.

'And they're all saying, "You must stop this now or you're going to die".'

Despite her unusual choice of dress for last night's event, Renee appeared in good spirits and smiled widely for photographers as she posed on the red carpet.

However, Renee's happy facade may have slipped when she stepped inside and found that her ex-boyfriend Bradley Cooper was also in attendance.

The couple split in March after nearly two years together, apparently because Cooper wanted to concentrate on his career rather than a relationship.

But Renee can take comfort in the fact that Cooper didn't choose to take a date to the Met gala last night, instead opting to invite his mother Gloria to accompany him.

Yo-yo weight: Bridget Jones star Renee's weight has been the cause of constant debate over the years


The Hangover star looked smart in his black tuxedo and bowtie as he posed with Gloria, whose diminutive stature proved for some humorous photos outside the event.

Shortly after the couple's split in March, a friend of the actor said it was Cooper's professional ambition which led to their break-up.

The friend said: 'If I had to pick any possible mistress it would be Brad's career. He worked really hard to get into leading man status.'
