Bradley Cooper has revealed that he went commando to the state dinner hosted by President Obama for French Prez Francois Hollande at the White House.
The 'American Hustle' star explained to talk show host Ellen DeGeneres that he has gained weight to play Navy SEAL Chris Kyle in the upcoming flick 'American Sniper' so nothing fits anymore, the New York Daily News reported.
The 38-year-old actor continued saying that he didn't think twice before packing his tuxedo, which he also wore to the Golden Globes, and heading off to Washington.
Cooper claimed that he was trying on the tux 10 minutes before he was supposed to leave for the event and the pants refused to go up.
He insisted that he had to go commando because there was no room at all.
