Lady Gaga Maintains Wedding Secrecy as She Reveals Engagement Details

Lady Gaga is excitedly preparing for her upcoming wedding with fiancé Michael Polansky, even as she releases her new album, Mayhem. Although eager to begin their life together, the “Bad Romance” star, who accepted Michael’s proposal on April Fool’s Day 2024, is keeping the details of their big day under wraps. With her trademark enigmatic style, she’s not spilling any beans just yet.

“I’m desperately trying to keep that so private,” Gaga revealed to E! News in an exclusive chat, adding, “but I can promise it will be the best day of my life.” Despite her secrecy about the ceremony, the 38-year-old singer did share the heartfelt story of Michael’s proposal, introduced to him in 2019 by her mother, Cynthia Germanotta.

She recounted how he approached her with the sweetest gesture, asking, “How should I propose if I ever decide to?” Gaga charmingly replied, “Just use a blade of grass from the backyard and wrap it around my finger.” True to her word, Michael did exactly that when he proposed.

As Lady Gaga, whose real name is Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, recounted the tender moment, she showed a ring on her left hand, saying, “It’s the blade of grass. It’s the green ring that I wear.” This simple yet meaningful proposal inspired their collaborative track “Blade of Grass,” featured on her latest album, Mayhem.

Their shared love story extends beyond songwriting, as witnessed in the way they discuss possible wedding plans. “We actually talk about going to the courthouse, just the two of us, and ordering Chinese food,” Gaga revealed during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! in October. She whimsically entertained, “Knowing me, it could also turn into a circus with unicorns.”

Regardless of how their special day unfolds, Gaga is certain that their relationship will remain as enchanting as its beginning. “It was really kind of special,” she gushed to Vogue in September, reminiscing about meeting “a truly supportive, loving person who wanted to know me—beyond Lady Gaga.”

Gaga shared further, “He’s so smart and so kind,” adding that Michael is a remarkably private individual who cherishes her for who she is, and not her celebrity status. With such a genuine partnership, their wedding—and life together—are sure to be extraordinary.
