Lady Gaga this week denied that she was pregnant by her boyfriend, entrepreneur and philanthropist Michael Polansky, after growing speculation about what fans believed to be a baby bump in paparazzi photos of her at her sister's wedding.
The singer took to TikTok and shared a video of herself having fun trying out a brand new makeup look. TMZ reported. The video also included a caption with two messages. The first addressed, in a somewhat humorous way, a potentially sensitive and personal topic: whether she's having a baby or if she's simply gained some weight.
Gaga then said: “I'm not pregnant – I was just crying at the gym.” With her message, the singer also called on people to register to vote at www.headcount.org.
With her video, Gaga's mother not only dashed her fans' hopes that she would turn into a first-time mother, but additionally hinted that there probably won't be far more from Polansky, a San Francisco tech entrepreneur, anytime soon, TMZ reported.
The singer and her boyfriend have kept a low profile since they began dating over 4 years ago. However, in February, they were spotted together cheering on the San Francisco 49ers as they played the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LVIII. The singer held Polansky's hand as they sat down in front of California Governor Gavin Newsom and his wife Jennifer Siebel.
Gaga and Polansky first made their relationship public during one other Super Bowl weekend – Super Bowl LIV in Miami in 2020. That time, the 49ers also lost to the Chiefs. Gaga made the connection official on Instagram by posting a photograph of the 2 cuddling. Her caption read: “We had so much fun in Miami. Love to all my little monsters and fans, you are the best!”
The following 12 months, Polansky accompanied Gaga on the inauguration of President Joe Biden and sang the national anthem.
But in the event that they're holding back, it is perhaps because Polansky isn't a part of Gaga's show business world. He graduated from Harvard in 2006 with a level in applied mathematics and computer science and works on various projects with Sean Parker, the co-founder of Napster and Facebook. in keeping with his LinkedIn page.
These include the Parker Foundation, which was established in 2015 and supports philanthropic efforts within the life sciences, global public health, civic engagement and the humanities, in keeping with the muse's website. Polansky can also be a co-founder and board member of the San Francisco-based Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy, which funds research into cancer treatment.
When Gaga began dating Polansky, she was following a certain trend that was quite popular for some time: well-known female celebrities trying to the tech world for dating and marriage opportunities.
The women on the forefront of this trend were tennis champion Serena Williams, who married Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian in 2017, and former Victoria's Secret model Miranda Kerr, who also married Snapchat CEO Evan Spiegel in 2017.
The news of the romance between Gaga and Polansky provoked a really unusual response from his ex-girlfriend, journalist Lindsay Crouse. The New York Times worker wrote a cheeky commentand described what it was like to seek out out that her ex-boyfriend was dating one of the vital famous women on this planet.
“If you've ever Googled an ex's new partner (be honest), you've probably played a certain game with yourself,” Crouse wrote. “You're either just curious – which is healthy of you – or you want to know how you compare. Ideally, your ex's life hasn't improved all that much without you? In this case, though, that's all turned on its head. How do you compare to Lady Gaga?”
Crouse said they began dating in college and the connection continued for several years afterward. But as a substitute of being intimidated by Gaga, she as a substitute found inspiration in her, Crouse wrote. She decided to live more fearlessly.
“Lady Gaga is incredible,” Crouse wrote. “Comparing yourself to her is incredibly motivating and I encourage you to try it, regardless of how you feel about the person she's dating.”
Just a few months later, Gaga described Polansky in an interview as “the love of my life.” after todayDuring an appearance on MSNBC's “Morning Joe” in April 2020, she referenced Polansky when discussing the importance of mental health and its connection to her Born This Way Foundation.
