PHILADELPHIA >> Bradley Cooper’s appearance at the Democratic National Convention Wednesday night has irked some conservative fans of the actor’s portrayal of Navy SEAL Chris Kyle in 2014’s “American Sniper.”

Cooper was spotted by TV cameras seated at the meeting in Philadelphia alongside his Russian model girlfriend, Irina Shayk.

Some Twitter users say they plan to boycott Cooper’s future films over his presence at the convention. Another commented that they thought his experience playing Kyle would have rubbed off on him.

The complaints have been mocked by others who say Cooper was simply acting a role when playing Kyle and conservatives shouldn’t be surprised.

Cooper earned an Oscar nod for “American Sniper,” which became a blockbuster thanks in part to an enthusiastic reception among conservative moviegoers.

    This is what conservatives get annoyed at? It makes it easy to see how Trump is their nominee!

    Brahhhhh! Don’t these guys get it? Hollywood Celebrities. Don’t get me wrong i like Bradley Cooper,but why do movie stars do this kinda stuff? Don’t you think by endorsing any political party, is a shot in the Foot? or should i say the right foot?lol
    I said this before……
    Big Stars like Tina Fey, George “Looney” Clooney, Julia Roberts, Danny Glover and a whole list of these elites/celebrity stars are Losing Big Money at the Box office.Example Tina Fey’s Movies are Bombing at the Box office! Because of this “Political Correctness”,but i say her Movies are just terrible:ie:”Sister”. Ticket sales have dropped significantly for all of these stars. And yet,they simply don’t get it!
    Take heart though!
    One good outcome will come out of this ,when The Donald becomes our next POTUS,will these celebrities “Put-up and Shut-up” and Move to Canada? like they have been bragging/threatening to do all this time.Huh, Huh? Inquiring minds want to know. Because if that’s the case, that will truly be a Good Day for America! Go Donald and let’s “Make America Great Again” and let’s get those darn emails. Haaaaaaaaaaaaa! IMUA
