Bradley Cooper slams rumors he hooked up with Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift may have dated some of the hottest men in Hollywood, but Silver Linings Playbook actor Bradley Cooper is not one of them.

According to Zap2It, following reports that Cooper was attached to Playbook costar Jennifer Lawrence, the former Sexiest Man Alive is now being linked to country cutie Swift thanks to a report on Radar Online.

A source explained to Radar, "It was a little awkward for Bradley. Jennifer came to him and told him that Taylor was interested in getting together. He had to politely decline, knowing full well that Jennifer and Taylor are friends.”

For the second time in two weeks, Cooper was forced to deny being linked to another Hollywood beauty, telling Extra, “Crazy, never met her, that’s not even true at all… that’s completely made up.”

Swift recently split from One Direction singer Harry Styles and has since noted that she wants to focus on herself and fly solo for a while.
