Lady Gaga is an award-winning superstar, an artist who has achieved acclaim for her work in movies as well as music. She rose to fame as a singer who would walk the red carpet in extravagant outfits, such as the notorious “meat dress.

However, those who looked past the drama saw a performer of the highest magnitude, and as the years have gone on, Lady Gaga has more than proved that she deserves to be in the spotlight. Lady Gaga has experienced her share of heartbreak, and recently, the star opened up about what she envisions for her future — and whether or not she ever wants to become a mother. 

How did Lady Gaga become a star?

Lady Gaga was born Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta in Manhattan, New York, in 1986. Raised by a loving, Italian family, she adopted her stage name when she was just beginning to break into the music industry. Lady Gaga studied music extensively as a teenager, perfecting the singing and songwriting skills that would take her far in life.

In 2005, Lady Gaga began her recording career, working with record producers in New York City. For several years, Lady Gaga worked in the underground club scene as she struggled to really break through to the mainstream music industry.

In 2008, she received the big breakthrough that she had been working so hard for when her debut album The Fame was released. With that, everyone sat up and took notice of Lady Gaga, and the powerhouse voice that she was blessed with.

In the years since, Lady Gaga has worked hard, consistently releasing new music and taking on surprising projects. Fans love her, critics praise her – but Lady Gaga is showing no signs of slowing down. 

Lady Gaga is in a new relationship

Lady Gaga has been in relationships almost ever since she became famous. Her longest-lasting relationship was with actor Taylor Kinney, of Chicago Fire fame. The two started dating in 2011 after Kinney co-starred in one of Lady Gaga’s music videos, and they remained together until 2016 before splitting peacefully.

In February 2017, Lady Gaga started dating a talent agent named Christian Carino. They remained together for almost two full years before breaking up in February 2019.

Following her split from Carino, Lady Gaga had a brief relationship with Dan Horton. The two only dated for a couple of months before breaking up in late 2019.

Lady Gaga was able to find love quickly after her breakup with Carino. In December 2019, Lady Gaga began dating a Harvard graduate named Michael Polansky. She hasn’t been shy about showing her love for Polansky, and her Instagram account is full of images of the two of them together.

It is perhaps Lady Gaga’s new romance with Polansky that has her feeling introspective about the future, as she revealed in a brand-new interview.

In a recent interview with InStyle magazine, Lady Gaga admitted that she is looking forward to “being a mom.” While she remained relatively vague regarding when fans could expect her to announce a pregnancy, she did say that it could be within the next decade and stated: “I will say I am very excited to have kids.”

She also mentioned that up next for her would be “marriage” and music, though not necessarily in that order. 

Lady Gaga has a lot to look forward to — and for her fans, who have seen her go through so much in the past decade, witnessing the superstar start a family of her own would undoubtedly be a real thrill.
