The incredible magical moment of Lady Gaga
New movie, new music and engagement in progress
September 4th, 2024
We’re all waiting for it. Lady Gaga has arrived at the Venice Film Festival for the premiere of Joker: Folie à Deux, the second chapter in Todd Phillips' villain saga. Today, September 4th, the red carpet will take place, and from her arrival looks at the Lido, we can sense a vintage mood with shades of black. Beside her on the big screen is Joaquin Phoenix, while beside her in life is Michael Polansky. In her future, beyond the promotion of the film, which will hit theaters on October 4th, there’s also an album, the highly anticipated LG7, and maybe even a wedding. But let’s take it one step at a time.
Lady Gaga in Venice: Everything We Know About Joker 2
In the new film by the director of The Hangover, Lady Gaga will play Harley Quinn, aka Harleen Frances Quinzel, a music therapist for Arthur Fleck. The two will fall in love inside Arkham State Hospital and live together in a state of love, illusion, and madness. Meanwhile, between one musical number and another, Joker's supporters will try to organize a movement to free their idol. Although it’s not exactly a musical, as the lead actress just stated during the press conference alongside Joaquin Phoenix, much of the film will revolve around musical numbers, and the soundtrack is already available for preorder.
The Collaboration with Bruno Mars, Streaming Success, and the New Album
This promotional tour, which kicks off today in Venice and promises to bring us plenty of dreamy looks, comes shortly after the release of the song with Bruno Mars, Die With a Smile, which topped the Spotify Global chart and achieved significant streaming success. Shortly after, as Lady Gaga herself revealed on Instagram, the first single from the new album will be released. The post, a simple photo of an itinerary written on the letterhead of a famous hotel in the lagoon city, sent fans into a frenzy, who have been speculating for weeks about the direction of this new era following the pink-themed Chromatica.
By Her Side Is Always Boyfriend Michael Polansky
By her side is her official boyfriend, the very private businessman Michael Polansky, who hasn’t left her side, even in Venice. First spotted together in New York at the beginning of 2020, the two have been inseparable since. In April of this year, the first rumors of an official engagement surfaced, later confirmed by the singer herself and a huge diamond ring on her finger. They share a strong passion for charity (Polansky is a board member of the Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy) and a strong work ethic. So, all we’re waiting for now is the wedding.
