The supermodel and award-winning actor were candid in their responses, offering insights into personal confidence when approached by content creator David Karmi for Confident Heist.
How Gigi Hadid and Bradley Cooper Find Their Confidence
During their stroll in New York City, Cooper and Hadid were approached by David Karmi, known for his TikTok videos under the Confident Heist project. Karmi greeted the couple and broke the ice by expressing,
“I think you look really confident,”
before asking what makes them confident.
Cooper, flashing a grin, prompted Hadid to share her thoughts first. The supermodel explained that her confidence stems from “finding joy,” and she further recognized Karmi from his social media presence, taking a moment to introduce herself graciously.
When it was Cooper’s turn to answer, he gave a brief yet telling response, crediting his self-assurance simply to “being alive.” Before parting ways, Karmi requested that they share an encouraging tip for anyone struggling with their own confidence. Hadid responded with a gentle reminder: “Take it day by day.”
Tracing the Growth of Hadid and Cooper’s Relationship
Although Gigi Hadid and Bradley Cooper often keep their romance out of the spotlight, their relationship history has become increasingly public. The pair were first connected in early October 2023, after being seen having dinner together in New York City. Not long after, they were observed returning from what appeared to be a private getaway.
Confirmation of their relationship arrived in January 2024, when Hadid and Cooper traveled to London and were photographed holding hands. Their presence in the city together fueled further discussion, while subsequent sightings in New York City indicated a growing closeness.
The couple’s bond seemed to deepen in March 2024 as they shared dinner with friends and exchanged affectionate looks. A notable moment came in April when Hadid and Cooper vacationed in California with Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce, as shared by Kelce’s mother, Donna. Their support for Swift continued in May, appearing at her Eras Tour performance in Paris.
On November 10, 2024, Hadid and Cooper made headlines by attending a Broadway performance of “Cabaret” starring Alyssa Milano. Their shared outings pointed to a relationship that extends beyond spectacle and into genuine companionship and support.
Their commitment became public on May 3, 2025, when Hadid posted photographs from her 30th birthday, including a candid moment of the two sharing a kiss. Just days later, Hadid spoke about her day at the 2025 Met Gala in conversation with interviewer Emma Chamberlain, reflecting on her relationship with Cooper by sharing,
“Okay, I woke up, I was with my man. We had, like, a chill morning, some laughs, you know. And then I went to my house, had like an hour by myself, then took a shower, had my fitting, had chicken fingers and fries, then got into glam.”
Why Their NYC Confidence Moment Resonates
The Bradley Cooper NYC video captured a fresh side of both celebrities, highlighting their down-to-earth approach to confidence and life. Gigi Hadid’s advice to “take it day by day” and Cooper’s sense of presence reflect a hopeful outlook that resonates beyond celebrity status. Their openness, set against the backdrop of their evolving relationship, offers a rare, authentic glimpse behind the headlines—for fans, the couple continues to inspire through both their personal connections and candid perspectives on living confidently.
