Is there anything that would make Bradley Cooper unappealing to the female species?

Even after recounting a stomach-turning story about a multitalented Thai stripper on Conan O’Brien’s TBS talk show last week, “The Hangover: Part II” hottie still had his pick of the pretty at Monday night’s party for the flick’s New York premiere.

Cooper told Coco’s audience he visited a strip club in Bangkok where one of the dancers “was able to eject Ping-Pong balls” [through a gynecological marvel] “at high velocity and amazing accuracy.”

The ball unfortunately landed in Cooper’s mouth.

“My reaction was I tried not to let my lip touch any part of my face for the next 45 minutes,” Cooper told us with a big smile at Monday night’s Bing-sponsored Cinema Society screening. “I got tested every three hours.”

Cooper, who recently split with actress Renee Zellweger, had better luck at the post-premiere party at the Top of the Standard.

Ensconced at a private banquette with a “childhood friend” and his bud’s date, Cooper, 35, enjoyed the attention of bombshell actress Olivia Wilde. The former “House” actress, who has filed for divorce from Tao Ruspoli, kept Cooper in stitches for large chunks of the night, and at one point flirtatiously splayed her fingers on Cooper’s thigh.

Wilde has recently been linked to actor/musician Justin Timberlake, though she has tweeted that the two are “just friends.” To confuse matters, Wilde, Cooper and Timberlake attended the “Saturday Night Live” season finale party, where the three were seen in conversation.

At the “Hangover” party, Cooper also enjoyed the attention of a leggy brunette in a leopard-print dress, who swooped in when Wilde momentarily shifted her attention to Zach Galifianakis. At one point, the woman was clutching Cooper’s arm, but slunk away when Wilde returned.

The dreamboat even got his hand kissed princess-style by Galifianakis when the hirsute comic got up to leave the VIP area.

Before Galifianakis could exit, we asked him what he charges these days to touch his beard. At Vanity Fair’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner after-party, he had quoted us a price of $4.

Galifianakis told us the price was now $17, but when he said he didn’t take credit cards, we asked for a freebie.

“Okay, but real quick before the photographers see,” he told us, sticking his chin out.

Our life is now complete.

The 27-year-old ‘Tron: Legacy’ actress filed papers in Los Angeles County Superior Court last week, citing Irreconcilable Differences from her husband of eight years.

A representative for Olivia had already confirmed she had split from documentary filmmaker Tao last month.
The pair had been together since she was 18, eloping just six months after they met.

A source told US Magazine.com: “It was Olivia’s decision. Olivia got married really young.

“She’s done a lot of growing since then, just like anyone would. They’ve just grown in different directions.

“They have been separated for a while.

“Her career has exploded and she saw being married is not as much fun. She feels she missed out on being single getting married so young, and wants to sow her wild oats.”

Tao – the son of an Italian aristocrat – and Olivia were wed in an abandoned school bus in rural Virginia with just two witnesses to the ceremony.

A source close to him said: “He is heartbroken and really wanted to stay together.”

Since their split Olivia has been spotted with ‘Blue Valentine’ star Ryan Gosling.

Olivia Wilde has announced her separation from royal husband, Tao Ruspali. The two wed in June of 2003 when Olivia was only 18.

Olivia was featured in the Jan/Feb issue of Women’s Health magazine where she opened up about her relationship with Tao (obviously prior to the split). Check out a few interview highlights below:

Olivia on balancing her personal life with maintaining a perfect body…
“Striving for physical perfection takes a lot of energy. For me it’s important to come home from work, cook a meal with my husband, and spend the afternoon reading a book, instead of always running around.”

Olivia on her husband’s feelings about her on-screen hook-ups…
”I think he likes it…It’s a turn-on that I get to do these things. The confidence that comes along with doing well only makes you more desirable.”

Olivia on her unconventional marriage…
“You’re not thinking, we must be perfect! It was, Hey isn’t this an optimistic thing to do? And if it lasts, we’re lucky”

She shot the film, directed by her husband, Tao Ruspoli, by working seven days a week to keep her commitment to the Fox comedy “House.” While celebrating the release Friday night at a party in a TriBeCa loft, she was overheard saying: “I was so stressed out I had a huge breakout on my skin. And my husband was like: ‘This is great, your character should have a flaw.’ ” But that didn’t stop a long line of admirers approaching Olivia for photos as she danced with gorgeous co-star Megalyn Ann Echikunwoke.
