Bradley Cooper has addressed speculation he's had plastic surgery after many fans took to social media to pick out some major differences between past and present.

While there is certainly still a taboo surrounding cosmetic surgery, a lot more celebrities these days have spoken candidly about the procedures they have undergone.

Jamie Lee Curtis is one of those to express her regret surrounding plastic surgery, while the noise regarding other celebrities and plastic surgery is often a talking point in the tabloids as well as social media forums.

One of them being Cooper, as one person on X described the actor as not even the 'same person' anymore. "Did Bradley Cooper destroy his looks with plastic surgery? He doesn't even look like the same person any more!" the social media user wrote on X.

While a second added: "I'm all for plastic surgery but what in the Barry Manilow is going on with Bradley Cooper."

Another social media user suggested Cooper 'looks like Charlie Sheen', while another quipped: "No way that’s not him surely!!"

The 51-year-old has set the record straight regarding plastic surgery when speaking on the SmartLess podcast in an episode released on Monday (January 5).

Speaking alongside co-hosts Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes and Will Arnett, the group got onto the discussion of plastic surgery, after Arnett was asked to name one thing about Cooper a lot of people do not know.

Arnett said: ""I said, 'Well, there's a lot'. And then I was gonna I was gonna say, because we keep reading everybody thinks that Bradley's had plastic surgery. Everybody keeps saying that. I'm like, 'What people don't know is that he hasn't'. Right?"

Bateman confirmed Cooper hadn't, which lead to Arnett doubling down and saying: "Yeah. Of course, he hasn't."

The Maestro actor then joined in the discussion about himself, quipping: "No, I get people [coming] up to me the last couple weeks. They're like, 'Oh, you look good! Yeah. Yeah, but it's a crazy s***."

Concluding the conversation that cleared a lot of internet chatter up, Arnett said: "But it did make me think... It made me mad because people say that all the time and it's a hilarious thing. Everybody thinks that they know. You know you read that bulls*** stuff."

Cooper is currently doing the media rounds to promote Is This Thing On?, the actor's latest director release that features Arnett as well as Laura Dern.
