Ken Jeong Shares a Touching Story How Bradley Cooper Helped Him While Filming The Hangover
Bradley Cooper may have dominated the headlines on the internet when he starred for A Star is Born, but he also starred in an iconic movie a decade ago. One of his co-stars certainly didn’t forget his kindness when Cooper extended his hand to help him before. The famous comedian, Ken Jeong, shares a touching story of how Bradley Cooper helped him during his difficult time in life.
The Favor
In the year 2008, Ken’s life turned upside down when he heard his wife, Tran Jeong, got diagnosed with breast cancer. A year later, Mrs. Jeong was going through her chemotherapy when Ken accepted Mr. Chow’s role in the hit comedy movie The Hangover.
Ken remembered how it was heartbreaking for him to leave Tran’s side as she underwent recovery while he’s shooting. That’s when Bradley offered to help him. Cooper volunteered to drive him from Vegas to LA to be with his beloved wife.
Ken also revealed how Bradley spent the holidays with them. He explained how his wife was too weak she couldn’t even travel in the holidays due to her chemotherapy sessions. Instead, Bradley invited them to come over his place and celebrate the holidays with his family. Ken and his wife went over, and he was grateful for Bradley since he helped him get through the most challenging time in his life.
Finding the Light
Ken says Bradley certainly helped him and his wife see the light they sought during their darkest times. Aside from leaning on his co-star for strength, they also focused on watching comedy series so they could remember how to smile despite the hardships they endured.
They couldn’t be happier when Tran survived cancer. Ken revealed it was a blessing from God and he thanked him for giving Bradley to guide them. As the news of Bradley’s immense success in the film industry continues to make some noise on the internet, he couldn’t help but be happy for him. Ken says Bradley deserves all the success he’s reaping in life.

Heart-warming Reviews

The Undeniable Chemistry
In the recently concluded Academy Awards, the film’s heart-warming song, “Shallow,” won best original song of the year. Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper also made some noise when they delivered a heart-rending performance of the song.
The rumors about them together intensified when Lady Gaga thanked Cooper and said she couldn’t have sung that beautiful song without him as her duet. As millions of fans already ship the two as a canon couple, only time will tell whether or not they make it official in the future.
