Bradley Cooper is getting emotional backlash from the public over his latest costume choice for his upcoming film.
Bradley Cooper’s ‘Jewish Nose’ Mistake

The actor faced criticism for wearing a fake nose to play Leonard Bernstein in the biopic. Bernstein was a talented conductor and composer, best known for writing the music for West Side Story.
Cooper, who directed, co-wrote and starred in a film called Maestro was slammed by actress and activist Tracy-Ann Obermann on social media. “If [Cooper] have to wear a fake nose then that, to me and many others, is the equivalent of Black-Face or Yellow-Face … if Bradley Cooper can’t [play the role] through power or acting alone then don’t throw him away – get a Jewish Actor.”
Many people sided with the incident giving their reasons as to why or why not the award-winning actor should or should not play the role or wear a fake nose.
Bradley Cooper Fans Show Up

Fans of the actor explained that they did not believe that he had done anything wrong. He’s an actor being an actor.” #BradleyCooper Looks pretty close to me. Maybe some of you are a little too sensitive. You don’t have to be angry about everything.”
Many followers posted pictures of Cooper and Bernstein side by side and stated that they were happy with the choice, the prosthetics not being a big deal to them. “This is ridiculous. He is an actor. It’s called acting. “Jewface”? Seriously? Please tribesmen, we have much bigger problems to worry about. STOP.”
Another follower wrote, “I don’t understand all this outrage over #BradleyCooper playing Leonard Bernstein and the supposed Jewface controversy. Folks, HE IS AN ACTOR (and a very good one at that). He was meant to resemble Bernstein. That he is not Jewish is irrelevant to his acting ability.”
Bradley Cooper Annoys Some People

Of course, there are some who think that Cooper has gone too far. “Here’s a thought: maybe instead of molding, shaping, coloring and adding facial prosthetics to fit an actor into a role (think Mickey Rooney in Breakfast at Tiffany’s), why don’t we cast new actors to play the role naturally? FFS reading #BradleyCooper’s room in 2023.”
Another follower was disturbed by the look because it was inappropriate. “Da FUO??!! #LeonardBernstein.” They share Cooper and Bernstein’s side by side image of a good music composer’s nose.
‘Oppenheimer’ Has Same Drama

Before Oppenheimer made a splash at the box office, fans were outraged that Cillian Murphy was playing the lead role. They slammed director Christopher Nolan for being “satisfied” and “doubl[ing] down” on the “extermination of the Jews”.
Also, don’t forget that people are still reeling from Kanye West’s late 2022 hatred of Jews and continued until his platform was blocked and taken down. Nothing slipped today.
Not much can be done about it now, the film has been completed and is set to premiere at TIFF. It also stars Carey Mulligan as Bernstein’s wife.
