Lady Gaga Takes a Chance on an Unknown Kid for a Duet of 'Shallow'

She coaxed him up to the stage for the duet with some help from the audience, who, obviously, were here for it:

“So a really good friend of mine… I don’t know if you know him but his name is Bradley. He made that movie, umm, A Star Is Born. So I’m gonna be a little chance-y… Yo Bradley, you wanna come up and do this one?”

The pair had some problems with the in-ear monitors, but after joking that “Jackson Maine would never wear these,” Cooper did a really good job for someone who was not planning on singing a duet for a crowd of thousands.

My favorite thing about this video, aside from the fact that the two of them really do seem to genuinely like one another, is that Lady Gaga performs in her own concert tee. Second favorite thing is that Bradley Cooper air guitar.
