Bradley Cooper sits by her side watching her avidly as she sings and is the first to congratulate Lady Gaga when she finished singing with a smile and a reassuring squeeze of her shoulder.
'Shallow' was one of the most popular songs of 2018, thanks to its use in the musical drama A Star Is Born and was written by Lady Gaga, Andrew Wyatt, Anthony Rossomando and Mark Ronson for the film's soundtrack.

The singer told Beats 1 they wrote the track "from the point of view of Ally, it becomes part of the reason they fall in love."
"When I was writing music for the film I had to think about Ally as if she wasn't me. I went with a sound for her, even in the pop realm, that's unlike anything I've ever put out before."
'Shallow' gave Lady Gaga her first UK number one since 2010, and it was a number 5 hit in the US.
