Did you ever notice how some performers are just able to grab the attention of an audience and pull them along with the emotion of a performance? There are many who are able to do it but some of them come and go, while others are here for the duration. Lady Gaga is one of those performers who seems to captivate an audience, and she does so in some surprising ways.
Recently, Lady Gaga was putting on a show in Vegas. The audience was loving what she was doing but she was about to do something that would take things to the next level. When she was getting ready for her final song, she made the decision she wasn’t going to do it on her own. Instead, she invited Bradley Cooper to the stage so they could sing an epic duet together from A Star is Born.
It wasn’t long before the co-stars of that film were driving the audience crazy when they sang the song ‘Shallow’. It was the perfect way to end her ‘Enigma’ show and, of course, the special moment was captured on video by someone in the audience. It showed them sharing an embrace before Gaga sat at the piano and Cooper took his spot by her side.
Gaga was trying to tell him she had him covered when Cooper came on stage. She said “I even got you in-ears” but he didn’t know what to expect because he had never done it before.
Cooper got a little excited as they kicked off the song, even saying: ‘Hello, Vegas’ to the crowd. As soon as he started singing, the crowd erupted. They also expressed their feelings on Twitter:
One person tweeted: “Tonight I saw Bradley Cooper sing Shallow with Lady Gaga so honestly….I win. I apologise for anyone who wasn’t there.”
Here’s another part when Cooper first took the stage to sing “Shallow” with Lady Gaga at her Enigma show!!! What an amazing show. Cooper was sitting right behind us. We said hi a couple times. I was wearing a Jackson Maine shirt. Wow. Amazing seeing them do that live. @DCfilmgirl pic.twitter.com/kKhRB4aEEU

“Petition for Lady Gaga & Bradley Cooper to actually go on tour together,” another responded.
Another post simply read: “Music To my eyes by Bradley Cooper x Lady Gaga.”
Some were talking about the chemistry between them: “Find someone who looks at you the way Bradley Cooper looks at Lady Gaga.”
Lady Gaga has turned up the juice, thanks to the show. She is the first to have been nominated for her first Oscar and has become the first artist to be nominated for Best Actress and Best Original Song in the same year.
This is the third remake of the original 1937 A Star Is Born movie. It was also a musical in 1954 with Judy Garland and a rock musical in 1976 with Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson.
Cooper said: “It was one of the great experiences artistically I’ve ever had, and oddly natural. I had the privilege of working with so many great artists in this film.”
