So my recent trip down to London I went to see The Elephant Man – Review here. I had to try and see Bradley Cooper at the stage door, so prior to the show I checked out where about’s it was so I could head quickly round at the end. This was successful and very good. As you will see soon though it did not all go to plan at all . . .
We didn’t have to wait too long for Bradley to come out of the stage door and all of the barriers around the outside, I managed to get a good position and was told he works his way round. This happened as you can see.
As he was getting even closer it was starting to get more exciting and I was starting to think about how to get my phone to try and get a selfie with the man himself.
So here comes my absolute fail . . . I had the camera facing so I could see myself as he went past, he was right in the photo but I didn’t press enough times and this happened . . . . . .
So there you have it my selfie with Bradley Cooper . . . Oh wait that should be Bradley’s hand and a very small part of his face/hair 😦 honestly I am still so devastated about this! *cries* and *cries even more*
In all that effort and panic I didn’t really get any massively good photos, but it was rather difficult, the downside of going to the stage door alone!
Unfortunately I couldn’t get as close as these two lucky people got!
There you have it . . . How not to get a selfie with Bradley Cooper at the stage door. He was lovely though and signed lots and stopped for photos too.

UGH!! You are so lucky =D Bradley Cooper’s hand is better than nothing.

Holy cow, so many people – far more than I’ve ever seen waiting outside a west end stage door. Were there tons of people who didn’t see the show that swarmed for an autograph? Because that makes me so mad when people do that.

Yeah there was a girl who hadn’t been in to see the play and didn’t even know who Patricia Clarkson was . . . They should ticket the stage door as well haha.
You should search for some of the photos and videos from the first few nights, that looked even crazier!
I was much more successful last year with Bill Nighy and Carey Mulligan.

Thanks Allie. Yeah it was still a good experience, I will now make sure if I ever meet a famous person I will just press over and over again and hope at least one photo comes out right!

Not very long, he’s pretty quick around the crowd. Apparently he starts at different sides
