Lady Gaga and Michael Polansky Share a Romantic Kiss at SNL 50th Anniversary Special
The 50th anniversary of Saturday Night Live (SNL) was a night to remember, with many celebrities in attendance to celebrate the iconic sketch comedy show. One of the most memorable moments, however, came from Lady Gaga and her girlfriend, Michael Polansky, who shared a rare and romantic kiss on live television.
The pair, who have been dating since 2020, made a surprise appearance at the festivities, which was held at Rockefeller Center in New York City. As they walked the red carpet together, they couldn’t help but steal the show with their chemistry and affection for each other.
At one point, as the cameras panned across the audience, Lady Gaga and Polansky found themselves caught up in a spontaneous moment of PDA (public display of affection). As they turned to each other, they shared a sweet and loving kiss, leaving the crowd nearby in aww.
Their brief but tender moment was met with cheers and applause from the audience, many of whom couldn’t help but feel a little bit of joy and love from the impromptu display of affection. The couple’s fans, in particular, were over the moon, with many taking to social media to express their delight and admiration for the couple.
The moment was all the more significant given the rarity of such public displays of affection from the usually private couple. Lady Gaga, an advocate for LGBTQ+ rights and a strong supporter of the LGBTQ+ community, has kept her personal life relatively under wraps in recent years. However, her growing relationship with Polansky, a director and producer, has become increasingly apparent as they’ve been spotted together more frequently.
This latest SNL appearance, however, marked a new level of PDA for the couple, a sign that they’re growing more comfortable in each other’s company and willing to share that love with the world. The 34-year-old pop star and 43-year-old producer have had a whirlwind year, with Lady Gaga’s critically acclaimed acting debut in the TV series "American Horror Story: American" and Polansky’s work on projects like the upcoming film "One in a Thousand," a romantic drama about two LGBTQ+ individuals.
Their SNL appearance capped off an already memorable night, with performances from some of the biggest names in music and comedy, including Eminem, Billie Eilish, and Dua Lipa, as well as a star-studded lineup of cast members from across the show’s 50-year history.
As the evening drew to a close, Lady Gaga and Polansky left the red carpet, arm in arm, beaming with happiness and love. For fans, it was a moment that would be remembered for a long time to come, a testament to the power of love and the importance of publicly showing affection – especially in an increasingly divided world.
