His recollection of that former Lee's Hoagie House ad was right on! Never heard an actor who actually could speak the honest classic local Philadelphia dialect! He should use that little bit for training actors in films that are supposedly set in Philadelphia and environs.
I know your comment is five years old, but I'm English and I grew up in the early 2000s watching whatever Bam Margera put out. You might know already but Bam did a movie called "Haggard" back in the early 00s, and one of the lines in that film was: "You ever tried breaking bottles behind wawa?" You've took me back to my childhood by bringing up wawa, even though I'm from a different country and I never knew what it really meant. West Chester, PA was a mythical place for me growing up.
That sounds so bizarre to me,I don’t live there but I’m less than 10 miles away and it’s one of the most uneventful place in the country. I’m not putting it down but it’s just a boring little affluent(mostly) town. It’s ironic because whatever town you come from I probably think of on the same way and that you must’ve grown up with dragons and wizards and witches😜. Because this is online I have to explain I’m not making fun of you or being a dick,I find it amusing how perspectives can change everything. I didn’t know wawa was local until I left and people thought I was speaking gibberish. The nearby town of Wawa probably should’ve given me a hint by the time I was 5. Oh and Haggard is a movie I used to watch a lot when it was somewhat new but I never met anyone else who’d even heard of it.........that was the whole point of this response but I got way off track before I remembered
It may be getting phased out. My elementary school teachers said Attytude, but haven't heard it in awhile. That was late 80s, which checks out with when Bradley Cooper lived in Philly area.
Things change but it is definitely pronounced that way in certain areas. Bradely is from Jenkintown but his mother is from South Philly aand i bet she know that pronunciation.
Joshua Davis ....my mom did say addytude but she was born 1913. She still talked like a Kensington female even when she moved to NJ! She would also say idear instead of idea
Jade-Rose Green they are more talking about the street sound of the Italian and Irish in south philly. None of these people sound anywhere close to it.
I've been in this area most of my life, but not during my early years so never fully adopted the regional accent (SE PA, South Jersey, Delaware). I can tell you though that for people that are natives to this area, his Lee's hoagies schtick is spot on with being the working class accent of this region.
talismonk When we first moved down here, I was terrified when I heard that accent. Was worried I'd grow up sounding like that someday! But I grew out of that pretty quick, it sounds normal to me now.
I'm from Philly and no one says addy tood or beauty ful. Bradley Cooper nailed it with the Lee's Hoagies commercial impersonation. Only the most blue-collar people from working class neighborhoods in Northeast or South Philly would ever say "youze guys" and only old or at least middle-aged people, there is no way young people would talk like that in school nowadays and not get made fun of.
Oscar, really good point! It really depends on your family and upbringing. I have family that grew up all over the city and say specific words differently. My family says "wooder"((Grandmom is from nicetown).(Itailian grandfather from germantown). He says water, but our pasta "macaroni" sauce is gravy! I live in Hawaii now and I'm missing Wawa, tasty cakes, rosenbergers iced teas, scrapple!, TOMATO PIE!!, hoagies, jimmies on my ice cream, and most an authentic cheesesteak!!! "jeet"? gitdafucodahere!!!!!
Rocky is real. Try telling saying those heathen words in Philly, you'll never make it out alive. Rocky is fake.... What are you going to tell me next, that the eagles didn't win the Superbowl
I love bradley is so different from all the other actors, he's got a great sense of humour and he's really modest, even at the end he shook hands with the 2 ladies, that shows his gratitude and respect.. Just Love Him!
+XcccVcccX Mainly white people, who are over 40, I agree - although I fit that demographic and never did the whole "attytude"-"sub-stee-tute"-"Beauty-full" thing, but it used to be almost as common as wooder.
+Naomi Johnson Talk about an addytood. Jenkintown is about three miles or ten minutes up Old York Road from Cheltenham Ave., the border of Phila. Maybe you need to try the train - it might be faster than car or bus.
+70sleftover I know where Abington is you get on the 55, 28 Etc buses to get there from onely transportation center in Philadelphia . Don't try to play me born and raised here . He was not . That's all I'm saying ...Abington and Philadelphia are two completely different places .. He missed the real philly words like Jawn etc
+70sleftover exactly the boarder of Philadelphia not Philly the boarder which is why he got most of them wrong . I have a SETPA transpass( know what that is?) I've taken the 55 to get to Abington it takes 35 mins . But the funny thing is why so testy on TH-cam ? You're wrong ..215 all day peace 🖕🏽💯❤️😪
I've been asked where I'm from in the south by people in north jersey. They always look at me like I have two heads when I say a little outside of philly. They dont sound alike to me, but apparently they do to other people
It sounds a bit like Jersey to me. I've never spent any time up there. I'm sure y'all can hear the different accents like we can tell the different southern accents here.
I just have to add this...my daughter and were in Paris and I was ordering train tickets. I noticed this guy from the corner of my eye watching me as I was getting the tickets. When I was finished I looked at him like, what? He says, where at in Philly are you from? I laughed and said, is it that bad? He was from Philly and had been out of the States for several years but recognised the accent right away.
I grew up in Pittsburgh. I always thought of Philly accent as completely different from Pittsburgh's, but there is some commonality. They're like cousins who look a little alike but wouldn't be confused with each other except at a first glance.
I can't believe he's from my neighborhood in the suburbs. I wonder if we crossed paths or he knew the people I knew in his school. Glad he made it big!! And I'm impressed with his French. Good job!
this explains a lot I was born and raised in Alabama but my dad is from philly and I pronounce a lot of words like phillys this is very interesting ive gotta show my brother haha
My Dad says addy-tude, Baldimore (Baltimore) and brefas (breakfast). Addytude may be more of a Northeast Philly thing because half of my friends parents said it. I’m 35 now, so parents are in their 60s...boomers.
When i moved from SWP to Delco, (way back when) I noticed a difference. Now I live in OKlahoma. God help me, it's like someone scratching their nails on a chalkboard! all i hear is twang, twang, drawl drawl.
Have u noticed how women reporters always lay back, put their elbows on the couch whenever Bradley is around. Its like they're ready to be serviced. LOL
When I moved from outside Philly to NYC to attend F.I.T., a Classmate from Long Island, NY asked me with an incredulous tone, "WHERE are YOUSE from?!" I responded with the same question. but I immediately went out & found an Elocution Coach to neutralize ANY accent at all. When I visit Family back in Philadelphia, I can't believe I ever sounded like that!
That's all well and good and normally I'd agree with you if this interview took place in LA or something, but this is from a local Philadelphia news segment. This interview took place in Philadelphia. I promise you that these anchors would know where Jenkintown is.
I AM Philadelphia. I am the most Philadelphian of Philadelphians. Even if I don't want to be, I am. People have mocked my accent forever. And I swear to you, here and now, NOBODY SAYS ADDY TUDE. It's like the exact opposite of the way we would do the uh sound connecting the first and second syllable. Maybe they say addy tude somewhere, but it ain't Philadelphia. And Bradley's hoagie commercial was SPOT ON. Feel like I'm back on the block, somebody's dad telling me to get off their steps, they wanna hose 'em.
I've literally never heard this way of speaking in Philly before and I'm born and raised here....i do say water like wooder tho....perhaps I don't go outside enough
I was born and raised in CT yet certain words have a philly accent. I say "Wooder" and every single time that I forget it's water, not wooder it goes something like this. me - Just wooder please. server - ..... me - wooder fiance - Yeah. Took me a while too at first. She wants water. server - Oh. are you from Philly? me - I'm from 2 miles away.
I personally think his accent here sounds MUCH closer to a thick Pittsburgh accent rather than a Philly accent. Idk. I've lived in both cities, and the Philly accent usually reminds me of a combination of Pittsburgh, NJ and the New York accent all rolled into one.
I’m Delco,Upper Darby specifically so I’m not technically Philly .But I’m close enough to know I never heard it spoken as addytood. I definitely know Philly and Delco speak though
Stallone had a Brooklyn accent in Rocky. Attytood etc is eidespread in NY/NJ. Rocky is the source of the myth about Philly accents. The Lee's commercial is what working class people sound like from Lancaster to Philly to Delco.
Fun! Researching Philly accent. It's not particularly distinct as a n eastern seaboard accent, but has a bunch of weird pronunciations of certain words.
Philly is a county. But my cousin from deep Philly said all those words. Families that moved in from the burbs did't catch all the words. And today more of it is probably lost.
The hosts are way off on the word, Attitude. I grew up in Philly. Never have I heard a Philadelphian say Atty-tude. It's Additude or Ad-du-tude, the same as Bradley said it. FYI. Rocky is not a good example. In Philly, we loved the movie but did not like the fact that everybody had New York accents.
I have watched this over and over again. Having lived in Philly many years ago, it took me back. He nailed the accent and makes me miss Philly!
His recollection of that former Lee's Hoagie House ad was right on! Never heard an actor who actually could speak the honest classic local Philadelphia dialect! He should use that little bit for training actors in films that are supposedly set in Philadelphia and environs.
So true, actors usually speak w/a Northern New Jersey/New York accent when playing a Fuffian
+Mia K Except for the Lawrence brothers.
He’s from the area
Tina Fey nails it too. Also from the area.
McAvoy does it well for being Scottish. SNL charmin toilet paper skit.
I pity those who don't know what a wawa is. ):
Cindy Young biking to wawa in the summer and getting icees down the shore was my childhood

Born in Philly, and still have family there, and the Lee’s Hoagies accent is 1000% accurate
I know I have that commercial recorded on a tape somewhere. I need to find it.
Been in Philly almost 15 years now, never once heard someone say "addytude."
Joshua Davis yeah that’s more like Irish New England talk.
It may be getting phased out. My elementary school teachers said Attytude, but haven't heard it in awhile. That was late 80s, which checks out with when Bradley Cooper lived in Philly area.
Joshua Davis I’ve lived here all my life and that’s how my whole family talks
Things change but it is definitely pronounced that way in certain areas. Bradely is from Jenkintown but his mother is from South Philly aand i bet she know that pronunciation.
Joshua Davis ....my mom did say addytude but she was born 1913. She still talked like a Kensington female even when she moved to NJ! She would also say idear instead of idea
I'm from Philly and I do not say add di tude
Jade-Rose Green they are more talking about the street sound of the Italian and Irish in south philly. None of these people sound anywhere close to it.
Why the hell not?
It was prominent in the 80’s/90’s. I heard it growing up till we moved out when I was 11.
We all of us speak differently I sound extra country as a Philadelphian
Yea....some of these YT videos "explaining" the Philly accent don't even come close.
I've been in this area most of my life, but not during my early years so never fully adopted the regional accent (SE PA, South Jersey, Delaware). I can tell you though that for people that are natives to this area, his Lee's hoagies schtick is spot on with being the working class accent of this region.

reds 17 with out a doubt, absolutely!!!!
cawfee warder
It's just "yous" not youze guise
you're close but really its yiz. Like can I go wit yiz.
yeah ive always heard yaz or yiz
I've always used "yiz". Tf is yous???
most of the time yuz
StevenSanders2 actually it’s both... I always hear white people say “use guys” lol
I'm from Philly and no one says addy tood or beauty ful. Bradley Cooper nailed it with the Lee's Hoagies commercial impersonation. Only the most blue-collar people from working class neighborhoods in Northeast or South Philly would ever say "youze guys" and only old or at least middle-aged people, there is no way young people would talk like that in school nowadays and not get made fun of.
Oscar, really good point! It really depends on your family and upbringing. I have family that grew up all over the city and say specific words differently. My family says "wooder"((Grandmom is from nicetown).(Itailian grandfather from germantown). He says water, but our pasta "macaroni" sauce is gravy! I live in Hawaii now and I'm missing Wawa, tasty cakes, rosenbergers iced teas, scrapple!, TOMATO PIE!!, hoagies, jimmies on my ice cream, and most an authentic cheesesteak!!! "jeet"? gitdafucodahere!!!!!
My dad says “Addy tood” and “beauty ful” so do a lot of my relatives (grew up in Olney/West Oaklane/port Richmond backkkk in the day 50/60s)
I was born and lived there till I was 11 in the 90’s and we said addytood and bootyfull.
This dude must be wun uh dose doodz that moved outta tha city twunney yeerz ago
yea that's more NJ/New York. My grandma in Long Island said attytood and beautifull. It's a very small area of South Philly that talks like NY.
Y'all drawn, ain't no body tawlk like dem jawns.
Drawlin
Trying to hard chief
you dickeating type crazy yo
U tryin to hard bro bro 😂😂😂😂
Spot on
"Like Rocky would say it..." Rocky didn't even speak with a Philly accent! Ugh...
Rocky may have been from Philly but Stallone is from NY.
dccmaj man um Sylvester Stallone went to Lincoln High School in Philadelphia
Spaceblu Attending high school in Philly doesn't mean he was from there. He attended many secondary schools actually.
Rocky is real. Try telling saying those heathen words in Philly, you'll never make it out alive. Rocky is fake.... What are you going to tell me next, that the eagles didn't win the Superbowl
+Dorian Graye Well, it's a real statue...
I love bradley is so different from all the other actors, he's got a great sense of humour and he's really modest, even at the end he shook hands with the 2 ladies, that shows his gratitude and respect.. Just Love Him!
he is italian
If your from Philadelphia... this is very upsetting
Exactly my point
Naomi Johnson Exactly
Kiersten Chandler I KNOW!!!
*YOU'RE!!!🙄
Professional Aleks agreed
he has that gift of telling stories and your hooked i love it!
"lee's hoagies, horsham pa" made me so happy :)
Jim's steaks, Termini's -
rocky had more of a new york accent though...
Well, Stallone is from NY.
dccmaj man That's my point.
BlueRam347
He moved to Philadelphia when he was 12. He went to Lincoln High School our main rival . I went to Frankford High School.
Bradley is so funny in every interview.
Literally nobody I know says "addytood." His hoagie commercial impression is what white people in Philadelphia sound like.
Like south Philly, or fairmount.
+XcccVcccX Mainly white people, who are over 40, I agree - although I fit that demographic and never did the whole "attytude"-"sub-stee-tute"-"Beauty-full" thing, but it used to be almost as common as wooder.

My Dad grew up in Philly. I remember him saying: "Bal-tee-more", "Yous guys", and "all of yous".
- fi dollars Yiz and yous
My cousins lived in Baldymore. They said you'll talk funny in Philly. But they did really have southern accents, just said you'll sometimes.
I worked at the Lee’s in Abington and occasionally horsham that he mentioned. Met Bradley once back in like 2012/13, super nice dude.
That was a dead on South Philly accent. Spot on Bradley. That was priceless.
If you listen closely, a philly accent is bordering on, but never quite gets to, being a southern accent
I've been asked where I'm from in the south by people in north jersey. They always look at me like I have two heads when I say a little outside of philly. They dont sound alike to me, but apparently they do to other people
It sounds a bit like Jersey to me. I've never spent any time up there. I'm sure y'all can hear the different accents like we can tell the different southern accents here.
Yea, it's a clash of NY and Southern. I have it. I finally accepted that.
I would get that too John or people down South would say NY. Prob cuz Philly is not too far from the Mason-Dixon line 🤣
That’s tremendous, Bradley!!
I saw this years ago on tv,glad I found it
Sundee, Mondee, Tuesdee, Wednesdee, Thursdee, Fridee, Saturdee, Sundee....
No
How did he get attytude and youze guys wrong? That's Philly 101.
nobody in philly say that lol
Bradley's "philly-isms" were better than the ones the hosts were going through.
it's youse....not youze guys.
Great guest
I just have to add this...my daughter and were in Paris and I was ordering train tickets. I noticed this guy from the corner of my eye watching me as I was getting the tickets. When I was finished I looked at him like, what? He says, where at in Philly are you from? I laughed and said, is it that bad?

Born and raised Philly,❤❤❤❤❤❤
I grew up in Pittsburgh. I always thought of Philly accent as completely different from Pittsburgh's, but there is some commonality. They're like cousins who look a little alike but wouldn't be confused with each other except at a first glance.
You guys are midwest
The accent has a lot of similarities.
Absolutely Nailed it! I'm laughing so hard cuz I didn't know I had an accident cuz I'm from Philly living in Philly but oh my God it's funny
I think he is adorable! And i didn't know he was from philly. Huge bonus!!
I can't believe he's from my neighborhood in the suburbs. I wonder if we crossed paths or he knew the people I knew in his school. Glad he made it big!! And I'm impressed with his French. Good job!
I love you Bradley Cooper! ❤️😘😍
I'm from philly and some of these are really outlandish but some i didnt realize were only here
In "Burnt" when he yelled at his cooks, he put on the full Philly accent lmao
I am from Horsham!!!!!!!! I love this!!!!!!
1:40 did he mean Talking Heads?
KidASquared Right??
AirParrott THANK YOU!
I just watched this and he said ZZ Top and I was like... uhhh... no that move and lyric is Talking Heads.
I live in horsham, born and raised in Horsham, pa
I live in Philly suburbs and I never heard anyone say Attitude like that. ???
I wonder if he could give me directions to the wawas or maybe Sev's for a big gulp
this explains a lot I was born and raised in Alabama but my dad is from philly and I pronounce a lot of words like phillys this is very interesting ive gotta show my brother haha
My Dad says addy-tude, Baldimore (Baltimore) and brefas (breakfast). Addytude may be more of a Northeast Philly thing because half of my friends parents said it. I’m 35 now, so parents are in their 60s...boomers.
I grew up with djeet yet in Texas too!
1:10 sounds like suburban /west chester Philly. Rocky doesn't sound like that.
***** So do I
Because Sly Stallone is a New Yorker, not a Philadelphian.
Sly Stallone went to lincoln high school in northeast philly
When i moved from SWP to Delco, (way back when) I noticed a difference. Now I live in OKlahoma. God help me, it's like someone scratching their nails on a chalkboard! all i hear is twang, twang, drawl drawl.
i’m from west chester and this sounds nothing like us
Have u noticed how women reporters always lay back, put their elbows on the couch whenever Bradley is around. Its like they're ready to be serviced. LOL

He isn't from Philly lmao he's from Jenkintown that place is as yuppie suburb as you can get.
That's all well and good and normally I'd agree with you if this interview took place in LA or something, but this is from a local Philadelphia news segment. This interview took place in Philadelphia. I promise you that these anchors would know where Jenkintown is.
Jenkintown is barely 5 miles away from Philly!
@Kay Moon My coworkers husband went to GA with him. Husband is from Chestnut Hill. Bradley is def bougie.
bensalem is a suburban hood
Kay Moon Germantown Ave they have the white side that goes to the burbs lol but yea you wouldn’t catch Bradley in Germantown
I AM Philadelphia. I am the most Philadelphian of Philadelphians. Even if I don't want to be, I am. People have mocked my accent forever. And I swear to you, here and now, NOBODY SAYS ADDY TUDE.
It's like the exact opposite of the way we would do the uh sound connecting the first and second syllable. Maybe they say addy tude somewhere, but it ain't Philadelphia.
And Bradley's hoagie commercial was SPOT ON. Feel like I'm back on the block, somebody's dad telling me to get off their steps, they wanna hose 'em.
he went to my high school
youtuber my mom also went to his highschool
When he did the Lee's Hoagie commercial it actually sounded like my cousin.
Bradley Cooper is the most Philadelphia sounding out of all of the hosts.
I love how he did the accent for the hoagie commercial! that's the accent most white people have lol
Weird. I’m from NEPA and this is basically what people from my area that have an accent sound like.
South Philly is different from the rest of Philly but it’s still home ❤️
"Jeet" creeps in further north - in the Susque'heyna accent of NE PA.
I love Bradley Cooper so so much
The Lee's Hoagies was spot on!
In Philly you put wooder in the ra-dee-ay-der mixed with anniefreeze.
I've literally never heard this way of speaking in Philly before and I'm born and raised here....i do say water like wooder tho....perhaps I don't go outside enough
West Side Columbus Ohio dialect is ( or at least was through the 20th Century) very similar to a Philly accent, but with a WV twang.
I LOVE HIM SO MUCH
People it's wudder!
I had a conversation with him in an elevator once.. didn’t know who he was until after. Nice guy
Where he from ?
Lee's Hoagies burnt down a few years ago. I think it was rebuilt. I'll have to go by and see.
I didn't know he was from the Philly area. I wonder if he has been to Lee's Hoagie's in Horsham. I live there.
What a beeyootiful man lol
I was born and raised in CT yet certain words have a philly accent. I say "Wooder" and every single time that I forget it's water, not wooder it goes something like this.
me - Just wooder please.
server - .....
me - wooder
fiance - Yeah. Took me a while too at first. She wants water.
server - Oh. are you from Philly?
me - I'm from 2 miles away.
I personally think his accent here sounds MUCH closer to a thick Pittsburgh accent rather than a Philly accent. Idk. I've lived in both cities, and the Philly accent usually reminds me of a combination of Pittsburgh, NJ and the New York accent all rolled into one.
LOL!!!! he had to get himself into that game a bit.... but then.... lol... he's just such a nice guy... everybody's got a crush on him.. =)
Is there a single Philly accent, and is it different to say Pittsburgh?
1:18 perfect Philly accent
And he was absolutly right about Hangover 3 ^^
in philly most people say things normally the majority of the accents come from the italians
i know i was born there demigod2324
Phia F. I only say a few words with a mild accent having been raised in the suburbs I never developed a heavy accent
where'd he go to school? Penn Charter? Haverford?
I’m Delco,Upper Darby specifically so I’m not technically Philly .But I’m close enough to know I never heard it spoken as addytood. I definitely know Philly and Delco speak though
people from the river wards sounded like that
@TheTwinJane --- yeah, i love this face! like "huh, what are you talking about!?!"
Born and raised in Philly till I was 11. When I moved to Chambersburg, everyone thought I was from New York because of my thick Philly accent.
I'm from Philly. Grew up there my whole life. I've never heard anyone there pronounce attitude like 'addy-tude' wtf?
I've lost my accent but to this day, I still say "beggels".
His 'all youse all' is on point.
The "Lee's Hoagies" part, 1:18 to 1:30, is SPOT on!
Is it worth moving to Philadelphia for tech jobs ?
watching this, my heart is like trying to jump out of my chest
I am from West Philly and when he did the Lee’s hoagie accent that sound just like me smh.
Stallone had a Brooklyn accent in Rocky. Attytood etc is eidespread in NY/NJ. Rocky is the source of the myth about Philly accents. The Lee's commercial is what working class people sound like from Lancaster to Philly to Delco.
I live near horsham O.O
OMG I LOVE U BRADLEY!!!
Fun! Researching Philly accent. It's not particularly distinct as a n eastern seaboard accent, but has a bunch of weird pronunciations of certain words.
Philly is a county. But my cousin from deep Philly said all those words. Families that moved in from the burbs did't catch all the words. And today more of it is probably lost.
Get yer beggles and budder at the Wawa.
I guess it depends on what part of Philly you’re from. Most of these words where exaggerated. But I guess that’s how they sound in certain area’s,
we don't say any words like this
real philly test would be , aye yo where you put the jan?
answer is, next to the jawn.
The hosts are way off on the word, Attitude. I grew up in Philly. Never have I heard a Philadelphian say Atty-tude. It's Additude or Ad-du-tude, the same as Bradley said it. FYI. Rocky is not a good example. In Philly, we loved the movie but did not like the fact that everybody had New York accents.
I love Lee's Hoagies!
I honestly never said youse and none of my family did either, it’s mostly south Philly
