Gerard Butler shocked Bradley Cooper Wimbledon ‘selfie’ went viral

Gerard Butler has revealed he was shocked to hear a photo of himself and Bradley Cooper posing for a self-portrait at the Wimbledon men’s singles final had gone viral.

The two actors were in the crowd for Andy Murray’s first Wimbledon victory on Sunday, larking around like the best of friends when they were spotted taking a ‘selfie’ on Bradley’s smartphone.

When asked if he knew that the photograph had gone viral at the Novak Djokovic Foundation gala dinner: “I don’t know what you’re talking about. I don’t go on the internet, so I don’t know what [a ‘selfie’] is.”

The Chasing Mavericks star also joked about the duo’s matching suits, saying: “Bradley and I are friends. [The matching outfits] was coincidence. It was a little embarrassing. We didn’t mention it at the time.

“We gave each other a hug, then looked down and went, ‘Oh, s**t’.”

Jeremy Piven, who also attended the final and Monday’s dinner, added: “I love both of them, they’re both great guys and they appreciate the attention.

“They were wearing powder blue outfits, they looked like they were groomsmen – they are the dream.”
