Gaga also admits that it was Polansky who convinced her that her next venture, an album that will drop in February 2025, should be pop. “Michael is the person who told me to make a new pop record,“ she says. “He was like, ‘Babe. I love you. You need to make pop music.’”

March 5, 2025: While promoting her new album, Mayhem, on Good Morning America, Gaga reveals they spoke about marriage and kids on their very first date.
“I wanted marriage and kids more than anything,” Gaga says. “Michael flew to Vegas when I was doing my show to take me on our first date and before we even sat down, I said, ‘Do you want marriage and kids?’ And he goes, ‘Yeah, I do.’ And I said, ‘Okay, great, do you want some champagne?’ And he said, ‘Sure.’”
She continued, “I think I wanted him to know that I was a family girl”
Gaga gushes about Polansky throughout the interview, saying, “He just loves the whole me. I learn a lot from him. He’s so supportive. He’s got an incredibly kind heart. He’s my best friend. Being in a partnership with your best friend I feel like is a huge blessing. I couldn’t imagine going through life with anyone but him, honestly.”
The pop star also reveals Polansky helps her write music and that “he includes me in his business as well.” She continues, “He’s really creative. He plays guitar. He’s a really beautiful musician as well. We have a really creative relationship. My album’s called Mayhem, but it’s also nice to be in the mayhem with someone else.”
March 8: Gaga shares more about that life-changing phone call with her mother during her Saturday Night Live opening monologue. “My mom called me one day, and she goes, ‘I met your husband,’” Gaga recalled. “And I said, ‘What does he do?’ And she said, ‘He works in cancer research.’”
