Bradley Cooper Looks Unrecognizable Now—It's Scary!

Bradley Cooper is typically one of the most recognizable faces (and names) in Hollywood. However, the actor debuted a new haircut recently that had fans taking a double take! Cooper, 46, is known for his wavy hair (and his baby blues). Without them, he’s basically incognito.

Don’t believe me? This recent photo is all the proof you need.

Yep, you’re not just seeing things. Bradley Cooper’s trademark wavy hair has been almost completely chopped off. Although it’s true that the actor can pull of pretty much anything, this new look is definitely going to take some getting used to.

To be fair, it is not the first time Cooper has debuted shorter locks. He had similar hair in Wedding Crashers and Silver Linings Playbook. However, the combination of the short hair, mask, and occasional sunglasses make him hard to recognize.

Fans aren’t complaining about the new look though. One wrote, “He can do no wrong.”

Another commented, “Short hair. Long hair. Beard. Clean shaven. He’s gorgeous.”
