Take a bow!

It was soo cute to see Crystal, the trained capuchin monkey/actress/cuteness, walk down the red carpet for the premiere of the Hangover Part II in LA last night!

According to co-star Bradley Cooper, Crystal deserves the recognition for her "miracle" work. In the before shooting he wasn't sure the monkey was gonna be able to do everything the script called for.

"I remember [director Todd Phillips and I] were talking about it. He was saying there's gonna be this drug-dealing mule that's a monkey and it's gonna smoke, and I was like, 'How the hell are you gonna pull this off?' You know, Crystal has turned out to be just a miracle monkey. She's incredible. She can do anything."

Cooper toted Crystal around on his shoulder during many Hangover II scenes, which was fun for the actor, except for one part…

"The only downside to Crystal is that she has very long claws, and you don't want to get Crystal around an elephant. There was one scene where we were walking down the street, and there was an elephant, and she sort of destroyed my shoulder."

We hope Brad and Crystal work together again soon. Valentine's Day Part II perhaps?

"We'd be on the ground, dirty, with fish blood dripping on us. That became NORMAL"

LOVES IT!

Bradley Cooper once said his dogs are his kids.

Clearly a huge animal lover, Cooper adopted his beloved dog Samson, a German shorthaired pointer, from a kill shelter's Web site just three weeks before he was going to be euthanized.

Sadly, Samson passed away last year and Cooper had a beautifully enormous portrait honoring Samson hung in his Pacific Palisades home (Charlotte is resting under the table). How fantastic is this portrait?! LOVE IT!

Now, to complete the look, he just has to find a lady to share the cozy spot under the photo. Brad says potential girlfriends must love his dogs too.

"She has to like my dogs. My dogs and I come in a package."

His recent ex Renée Zellweger was often spotted walking Charlotte.
