Hollywood star Brad Pitt has credited his friend, actor Bradley Cooper, for helping him get over his alcohol addiction. The 'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood' actor, who won the best supporting actor at the National Board of Review awards, gave a special mention to presenter Cooper in his acceptance speech.

"Bradley just put his daughter to bed and rushed over here to do this. He's a sweetheart. I got sober because of this guy, and every day has been happier ever since," Pitt said.

The actor spent a year and a half in Alcoholics Anonymous after Angelina Jolie filed for divorce from him in 2016.

Cooper also quit alcohol in his early 20s.
