Lady Gaga is squashing romance rumors between her and Bradley Cooper, insisting they were just acting at the Oscars.

The pair, who worked on A Star Is Born together, set tongues wagging on Sunday night with their passionate performance at the Academy Awards.

They sang their award-winning song from the film, โ€œShallow,โ€ and got very cosy on stage together.

However, Gaga, 32, is adamant they were just putting on a show.

During an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Wednesday, the host asked Gaga about the performance.

She rolled her eyes and said: โ€œFirst of all, social media quite frankly is the toilet of the internet and what it has done to pop culture is abysmal.

โ€œAnd people saw love, and guess what, thatโ€™s what we wanted you to see. This is a love song, the movie is a love story.โ€

She revealed Cooper, who directed the movie, also took charge of the Oscars performance.

Gaga added: โ€œFrom a performance perspective it was so important to both of us that we were connected the entire time.

โ€œI mean, look, Iโ€™ve had my arm around Tony Bennett for three years touring the world. When youโ€™re singing love songs, thatโ€™s what you want people to feel.โ€
