Why Lady Gaga, Bradley Cooper ‘Affair’ Fizzled Out: Gaga’s Career Jinxing Her Love Life?

Endless rumors about Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper having a secret affair have been around for months, but there’s a reason their relationship may not really last, even if the rumors were true.

Since the beginning of her singing career, Lady Gaga has been involved with several men, but all of them turned out to be just passersby in her life. Taking into account all of Gaga’s past relationships, there’s an emerging trend that probably explains why none of them — maybe even Cooper — was able to stay in the female singer’s life.

Luc Carl

Lady Gaga dated Carl in 2005, but their relationship didn’t last. When they reunited in 2010, Gaga revealed that she wrote her song “You And I” for him. Months later, Gaga sold more than 30 million copies of her album, but she lost Carl in return.

Rob Fusari

Fusari and Lady Gaga dated between 2006 and 2007. Their romance was so ill-fated that when they called it quits in 2007, Fusari described Gaga as a “woman scorned” and demanded a portion of her earnings from her multiple hits that year.

Matt “Dada” Williams

Lady Gaga dated the designer in 2009. But they split in 2010, just shortly after she was able to sell 10 million records.

Taylor Kinney

Everybody thought their relationship was made to last, but it wasn’t. After dating for more than four years and getting engaged, they called it quits in 2016. Their split came shortly after Lady Gaga got the role in “A Star Is Born.”

Christian Carino

Fans first spotted Lady Gaga having PDA with Carino in a pub in 2017. A few months later, they admitted their relationship. After dating for two years, they got engaged, but only to split again in early 2019. When they broke up, the success of “A Star Is Born” was at its peak.

Following her split from Carino, Lady Gaga was rumored to have dated her “A Star Is Born” costar, Bradley Cooper. However, reports in September claimed that Cooper decided to end their relationship after realizing he was not ready to commit yet.

There’s also Dan Horton, Lady Gaga’s sound engineer, who was spotted locking lips with the female singer back in July. While they have yet to confirm their relationship, Horton shares a potential drawback with Gaga’s ex-boyfriends that may hinder their relationship from progressing.

Lady Gaga tends to date men who are not as famous as she is, and her past relationships prove how this trend doesn’t work in her favor. Even Gaga herself has noticed this, and she implied in a previous interview that each time she ascends the ladder, she loses the love of her life. It’s always because her boyfriend can’t handle either her fame or her hectic schedule.

“And then I’m like, it’s a sad day when it’s like I’m doing the Super Bowl,” said Lady Gaga. “I’m like, I’m so excited to do it, but I can’t help but realize that when I sold 10 million records, I lost Matt. I sell 30 million, I lose Luc. You know? I get the movie, I lose Taylor. It’s like a turnover,” she added.
