It turns out the world’s two most famous Brads have a real thing for opera.
It’s being reported that - instead of wild partying - Bradley Cooper and Brad Pitt have been going to the opera to help distract them from their recent break-ups. (ICYMI, The Once Upon A Time in Hollywood star is in the midst of divorcing Angelina Jolie, while Bradley Cooper split fromIrina Shayk in June.)
According to The Sun, the pair chose to chill out at the LA Philharmonic Orchestra at the Hollywood Bowl, knocking back glasses of sparkling water while having a chat.
A source told the publication, ‘They have been busy juggling work with tricky family situations this year, and finally they have some time to themselves to hang out and be there for each other.
‘Both Brads had the best night being away from the normal Hollywood crowd, but they still stopped to talk to a few industry friends in the audience.’
The insider also told the paper that one of the reasons they chose the unexpected night out was because they weren’t feeling like ‘chatting up women’.
They added, ‘They can’t go out partying like they used to back in the day because they’ve quit boozing, so they chose a venue where they could stay out of trouble and relax.
'They won’t be out chatting up women any time soon, but they are both single for the first time in over a decade.They’ll be good wingmen for each other when the time is right.’
Last month it was also reported that Brad and his Once Upon A Time In Hollywood co-star were bonding - over a pottery wheel{
‘Brad’s got his own sculpting studio at his house and Leo loves coming over to use it,’ a source told The Sun.
‘They sometimes hang out with Brad’s artist pals, but other times it’s just the two of them. Leo brings sandwiches over from their favourite place, Fat Sal’s, and they spend their boys’ nights creating art until the early hours.’
What have we learnt here? That Brad Pitt sounds like a super-fun mate to have.
