Lady Gaga Reveals the Heartwarming Details of Michael Polansky's Proposal

Lady Gaga, the queen of pop who can belt out a ballad as easily as she can rock a meat dress, recently unveiled a tender slice of her life during her appearance on *Jimmy Kimmel Live!* on Tuesday. She spilled the beans about the moment when her beau, Michael Polansky, decided to pop the big question. Spoiler alert: it didn't involve a sprawling castle or fireworks, but instead, a rather heartwarming, nature-inspired twist.

“He proposed to me right after my birthday,” Gaga revealed. Imagine her surprise, sitting there in the post-birthday glow, thinking, “Well, that was anticlimactic! I thought he was going to propose!” It turns out, Michael had other plans cooked up, ones that involved harnesses and rocky heights. Because why not mix a little adrenaline with a life-altering decision?

Describing their rock climbing adventure, she said, “We went rock climbing, which was super fun. We’d done it before, but I suddenly felt like I had a new second job as a mountain goat.” Kimmel, undoubtedly doing his best to keep straight-faced while envisioning Gaga scaling cliffs, asked if she was into rock climbing on a regular basis. With a grin, she shot back, “I do now! I would do anything for love. Even defy gravity.”

After reaching the summit—where she probably felt like a conqueror surveying her kingdom—they leisurely strolled back, basking in post-climb euphoria. This is where things took a *Michael* turn. “He asked me if he could ask me. He wanted to know if it was OK to propose before he actually proposed!” she remarked, a mix of bemusement and affection reflected in her voice. “And I was like, ‘Yes, it’s so OK!’” Ah, yes. Talk about keeping it modern and communicative. Who knew marriage proposals came with a consent form?

When Kimmel pointed out the obvious missed opportunity of proposing at the summit, Gaga quipped, “I think it was smart. It was safe. He had the ring in his backpack, so it was super cute.” Because really, what’s more romantic than risking your life on a mountain climb while fumbling with precious jewelry?

Now, here’s the kicker—Polansky didn’t go down on one knee. And you might think Gaga would be disappointed. But she shrugged it off, “He didn’t, but I’m a modern lady. I liked what he did.” A modern lady indeed, ready to accept the quirks of an unconventional romance.

So, what’s next for this dynamic duo? Wedding bells? A grand affair? Not necessarily. Gaga confessed, “We actually talk a lot about just going to a courthouse, just the two of us, and ordering Chinese food.” Because if you’re going to get hitched, why not do it with some fortune cookies on the side? But knowing Gaga, she added with a cheeky smile, “But knowing me, it could also turn into a circus with unicorns.” And there you have it—the perfect metaphor for love in the public eye.

Their story began back in 2020 when whispers of romance floated through the air like confetti. They made their relationship Instagram-official during the Super Bowl, ensconced on a yacht, in a sun-soaked Miami. A snapshot of joy with a caption that simply read, “We had so much fun in Miami.” Who knew that amidst the chaos of fame and trends, love found a way to slip in quietly yet exceedingly charming?

Michael Polansky, a tech investor and the mastermind behind several charitable initiatives associated with Sean Parker, is evidently not just a pretty face. Together, this couple proves that sometimes love is best found hanging off the side of a cliff or while sharing a quiet meal—whether it be at a courthouse or amongst unicorns. Who could ask for anything more?
