Bradley Cooper was jealous of Leonardo DiCaprio
OHMYGOSSIP — Bradley Cooper admits he used to be jealous of Leonardo DiCaprio. The actor had a memorable encounter with the Hollywood A-lister when he worked as a hotel doorman and felt “worlds apart” from the star, who is now a close showbiz pal.
“I worked as a doorman all through grad school,” he said. “I remember taking Leonardo DiCaprio up to his room, and I was in the elevator with him and, like, seven of his friends. It was around the time of Titanic.
“And I remember this guy who looked like a kid, even though we were about the same age, he looked like a little boy. I remember thinking how I was three feet away from this guy, and we were worlds apart.
“To this day, I can’t believe [I’m friends with him]. He’s infectious. You know when you’re with some of your friends and you just start to act like them?
“That’s what he’s like. When you’re with him, you find yourself just starting to adopt some of those mannerisms through osmosis. I draw the lime at going to get a Mohawk, though.”
