Feud erupts between Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper’s girlfriend Irina Shayk after film stars’ intimate Oscars duet
A FEUD has erupted between Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper’s girlfriend Irina Shayk after their steamy duet at the Oscars - despite the pair sharing a hug inside the ceremony.
Cooper and newly single Gaga’s rendition of Shallow from their film A Star Is Born sparked rumours about the chemistry between them.

Russian swimwear model Irina, 33, had already unfollowed Gaga, 32, on social media after an earlier flirty exchange - while the singer beamed as she was pictured for the first time after the show yesterday.
After Sunday’s duet at the Dolby Theatre, Irina was seen with a fixed smile before giving Gaga a hug. But body language expert Judi James said their embrace may not have been as friendly as it seemed.
She said: “The hugs and embraces between Gaga and Irina look awkward and odd.
“Gaga placed both gloved hands on Irina’s shoulders rather than on her arms in what might have looked like an act of affection. But she turned her head to the left as she ‘kissed’, just as Irina turned her face to her left in a parting of the cheeks.

“Irina’s hands came up to clasp Gaga’s lower arm and the result looked like mutual restraining gestures.”
Shallow won the Oscar for Best Original Song at Sunday night’s ceremony. But after Gaga and Cooper performed it, Irina sat between them — which Judi said further revealed how awkward the atmosphere was.
She said: “Bradley and Gaga compensated for this by leaning forward while Irina leaned back in her seat, meaning they could communicate over her lap.”
It comes after The Sun Online revealed Irina is fed up of reading speculative stories about Bradley and Gaga being more than just friends.

Jen Howls at ex stick
- BRADLEY Cooper’s ex Jennifer Esposito has weighed into the debate about the chemistry between him and Lady Gaga.
- Comedian David Spade posted a snap of Brad and Gaga on Instagram with the caption: “Is there any chance these two aren’t f***ing?”
- And Jennifer, 45, replied with: “Ha!” The pair were married for a year from 2006.
A source said: "The stories about Irina being sick of Gaga have some truth to them – it’s not that she dislikes Gaga or is jealous of her, but she’s sick of the constant stories about her ‘close’ relationship to Bradley.
"She’s no stranger to cheating rumours – she dated Cristiano Ronaldo after all – but it’s been a long publicity campaign and she’s ready for it to end.
"She’s actually thrilled at how successful the movie has been and really wanted to go to the Oscars.
"It’s undeniable that Gaga and Bradley have chemistry – they have a lot more in common that Irina and Bradley – but that’s why the movie worked."
Cooper, 44, and Irina have been a couple since 2015 and have a one-year-old daughter.
