Met Gala 2014: Bradley Cooper shows off image transformation

Share this:

Bradley Cooper was not afraid to show off his 40lb weight gain as he attended the Met Gala 2014 on Monday. The actor didn’t pose with his British model girlfriend Suki Waterhouse at the New York City event but still graced the fashion event of the year despite sporting a rounded tummy for his upcoming film role. Bradley donned a black and white tuxedo on the red carpet and a full beard in what was quite a transformation from his usual clean-cut look.

While many actors who have gained or dropped weight for their major movie roles try to ditch bashes where they’ll be in the spotlight in order to make a dramatic appearance once they are on screen, Bradley has been taking on business as usual.

 In Clint Eastwood's latest flick American Sniper, Bradley plays a Navy SEAL named Chris Kyle and he clearly wants to do the job right in order to properly reflect the true story.He looked a far cry from his slimmer figure at the Screen Actors Guild Awards in January. Also at the Met Gala was his ex-girlfriend Zoe Saldana, who recently got married.
