Podcaster Alex Cooper turned to Instagram for fashion advice ahead of Sunday’s Golden Globes, where her show Call Her Daddy is up for Best Podcast.
> At a Glance
> – Cooper posted a Reel trying on six potential gowns for the 2026 ceremony
> – Options ranged from vintage Chanel to Gucci and Valentino
> – She joked about her first “boob moment” in years
> – Why it matters: Fans get a rare, unfiltered look at celebrity award-show prep
The 31-year-old recorded her dress debate on January 9, two days before the awards. Each outfit came with running commentary-and plenty of mom-approved one-liners off-camera.
The Six Dresses
- Black Gucci: classic scoop neckline that prompted Cooper to quip, “I never have my boobs out anymore”
- Simple white: sidelined over paleness concerns
- Off-white vintage Chanel with shawl: modest but maybe “not as much of a statement”
- Similar pale shade: rejected to avoid a spray-tan overload
- Cream strapless ruffle gown: a quick “no” unless fans “are obsessed”
- Black Valentino with deep plunge: loved but feared she’d spend the night “stressed about my boobs”
> “And they’re real, mom, thanks-not that that matters, but, you know.”
> – Alex Cooper responding to her mom’s off-camera shout-out
Awards-Night Competition
Call Her Daddy faces five other shows for the inaugural Best Podcast trophy:
- Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard
- Good Hang with Amy Poehler
- The Mel Robbins Podcast
- SmartLess
- Up First
Since launching in 2018, Cooper has expanded from sex-talk chats to headline-making celebrity interviews with Miley Cyrus, Kim Kardashian, John Mayer, and more. A $60 million Spotify deal in 2021 and a 2024 jump to SiriusXM cemented her status as podcasting royalty.
Key Takeaways
- Cooper’s Instagram poll lets fans pick her red-carpet look
- She’s leaning toward the black Gucci for its timeless vibe
- Call Her Daddy could claim its first major award on January 11
- The podcaster’s fashion dilemma spotlights the blend of relatability and glam that fuels her appeal
Whichever gown wins the vote, Cooper plans to walk the carpet feeling like herself-just maybe with her “boobs out” for old times’ sake.
