{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Attention, “A Star is Born” fans: Your favorite duo could be making a comeback.
Actor Bradley Cooper, who starred in alongside singer-songwriter Lady Gaga in the critically-acclaimed film, appeared on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” Thursday and admitted he’s interested in singing his heart out alongside Gaga once again.

“I mean, no,” he said, before quickly noting he has something else in mind.
"But what I thought would be a cool thing to do, maybe one night, would be like a live reading of the script and sing all the songs as we read the script, like at the Hollywood Bowl or something,” he continued.

While Cooper admitted stepping on stage at the awards show was “terrifying,” he claims he wasn’t nervous.
"I actually wasn't nervous, because I just worked so hard … I worked really hard, and Lady Gaga is so supportive. But it was terrifying," he recalled. "Because I'm not a singer and I didn't sing before this movie, so it was really crazy. It just shows you if you do work really hard, and you’re with supportive people, then you can do things you never dreamed possible.”

“It was one of those things where I was like, ‘It has to be great,'" he added.
“And it was,” DeGeneres assured him.

“It was honestly the only moment in the Oscars that I remember,” said DeGeneres. “That’s how powerful it was, it was beautiful ... so raw and natural. It was great.”
