Gaga makes her first turn as a leading lady big-voiced, fresh-faced singer Ally , while Cooper both directs and sings aging country-rocker Jackson Maine for the first time. It turns out that Cooper is just as impressive a singer as Gaga is an actress, and the intense dynamic between the two leads is present from the start. As Gaga told Beats 1 host Zane Lowe, the pair first huddled around the piano in her Malibu home to practice a Creedence Clearwater Revival song, and she was stunned when she first heard his singing voice. But what grounds it all is Gaga's and Cooper's star power, and their natural flair for the dramatic. At the urging of Sonya's husband, Gaga drove right back to set and poured everything she was feeling into that performance.

A Star Is Born is the soundtrack album to the musical film of the same name , performed by its stars Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper. It was released on October 5, , by Interscope Records. For the more pop -oriented songs on the soundtrack, Gaga teamed up with recurring collaborator DJ White Shadow. Commercially, it has topped the charts in more than 15 countries, attaining gold and platinum certifications from many of them, while selling over six million copies worldwide. In March , Warner Bros. Cooper spent two-and-a-half years prepping for the film and determining what kind of musician his character would be. He worked with a number of musicians and vocal coach Roger Love. If I had another year of prep, it would have been complete rock, but now it's some sort of hybrid. Cooper described the soundtrack "an evolution, like the story.
With her debut leading role as the lounge singer-turned pop star Ally in A Star Is Born , budding thespian-turned-film heroine Lady Gaga expertly lands the oft-attempted transition from musician to actor with serious aplomb. Still, her musicianship and vocal prowess are on full display throughout. It's already held the title for three weeks. For much of the songwriting on the record, Gaga, Cooper, and co. What might have appeared formulaic or contrived if done by stars less chameleonic and down-to-earth than Cooper and Gaga, instead feels pure, alive, and mystifying. Gaga was determined to get me out of my comfort zone and she did but it was a lot of fun. And she sang it beautifully. We were just trying to write a cool and fun Gaga song. I love her both as an artist and as a person. She is one of the hardest working people I know.
