Bradley Cooper denies romance with Jennifer Aniston

He insists the rumours are false despite approval from his family

Bradley Cooper says he hardly knows the Friends star

Bradley Cooper has the approval of his family for his rumored romance with Jennifer Aniston. The only problem: he and Jennifer Aniston aren't dating.

Despite reports this week linking him to the Friends star, the rumors are far from true, says Cooper, 34.

"I met her 3 times in my life," Cooper, soon to star in The Hangover with Heather Graham, told PEOPLE in Las Vegas Friday at a charity poker tournament at Caesars Palace. "I'm very flattered."

"My mom loves it, but unfortunately it's not true," says Cooper, who split with actress Jennifer Esposito after four months of marriage in 2007.
