Thousands of fans have been recording 15-second birthday wishes for the eccentric pop icon
Lady Gaga turns 40 and shared with the whole world that she already dreams of a family and children with the love of her life. For 7 years, one of the most talented singers has been in love with Michael Polanski. In a call to her co-star Bruno Mars during a radio show shortly before her one-year anniversary, the pop diva admitted that the wedding would be soon, without mentioning a specific date. But it is already clear what will be the special wedding song for the first dance of the future spouses.
“Hi Bruno. Me and my fiance have been traveling all year, but we’re getting married soon,” Gaga said. “We’re hoping that maybe you can pick out a special song for us.” In response, Mars advised her to dedicate the song Risk it All to her beloved man.
“This is going to be the best day of my life,” Lady Gaga said. The couple have been set to wed ever since their engagement in 2024, and apparently the time has come.
The future groom gave a little more information about the plans to Rolling Stone magazine. “We talk about it all the time,” he revealed. “We have these breaks (between shows on her tour) and they’re tempting. It’s like saying to yourself:
“Okay, can we get married over the weekend?”
We don’t want a really big wedding, but we want to enjoy it. In many ways, we already feel married, so things won’t change much.” Lady Gaga’s world tour, mentioned by Polanski, began in July of last year and will end on April 13 of this year. There are speculations that the wedding might not be delayed long after that. Polanski, who is an entrepreneur and has leadership roles in many philanthropic organizations related to improving public health, is co-producing the tour with his celebrity fiancee. After triumphing at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2025, Lady Gaga called him “the love of my life” and has always used that term when talking about him ever since.
The marriage proposal came on April 1 last year while the two were rock climbing. Michael asked for the hand of his beloved with a diamond ring, which according to experts is worth about 2 million dollars. The engagement was revealed by accident at the Paris Olympics when Lady Gaga introduced Polanski to then French Prime Minister Gabriel Attal with the words “This is my fiance”.
Thus, after years of success, fame and fortune, but also of severe hardships related to her health and psyche, the extravagant hit maker welcomes her 40th birthday at the peak of happiness. She told “El” magazine that she is ready to be a mother and wants her children to follow their dreams. “This is something that Michael and I have talked about a lot – to allow our children to be themselves – shares the star. – Not to tell them how to think, what to believe and how to eat… I just want to let my children know who they are.”
Loyal fans have prepared a surprise for their idol’s birthday. Thousands of them recorded 15-second videos with wishes for the holiday, which are collected on the official page of the artist from March 24 to 29. They will be broadcast on the big screen during the singer’s show in Boston on the 29th, one day after her anniversary.
