Irina Shayk and Bradley Cooper: A Met Ball Mystery.
Two weeks ago, Irina Shayk and Bradley Cooper went on a date (to Finding Neverland, the musical produced by Harvey Weinstein). Last week, they were spotted at Vanity Fair’s tiny soiree at the French Embassy in DC. And tonight? The are-they-or-aren’t-they pair arrived separately—very separately—at the Met Gala.
Shayk came with fellow model-turned-style-icons Emily Ratajkowski, Bella Hadid, and Hayley Baldwin, who all wore custom-made Topshop gowns. Meanwhile, Cooper walked up the red carpet steps completely solo. “They didn’t really talk inside either,” says a source, though that could be because of the gala’s strict seating requirements, which require invitees (everyone from Kanye West to Vera Wang) to stick to their own tables or risk the ire of the uptown social set.
Later, Shayk migrated downtown for Rihanna’s annual post-party bash, while Cooper joined Leonardo DiCaprio’s boys club at the Top of the Standard, though they did allow in one female member—badass TV heroine Kerry Washington.
The good news: Washington is happily married, which means if you’re dying to date the Oscar nominee, you’ve got as good a chance as anyone. New Yorkers, on your marks…
