Read on to learn more about Lady Gaga’s boyfriend Michael Polansky.
Michael Polansky is a philanthropist
Polansky has a head for business. He is co-founder and executive director of the Parker Foundation, whose goal is to find a cure for all types of cancer.

The entrepreneur also attended one of the best schools in the USA. According to his LinkedIn profile, Polansky graduated from Harvard University in 2006 with a degree in applied mathematics and computer science.
Lady Gaga once called him “the love of her life”
Gaga referenced her boyfriend during an appearance on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” in April 2020 when she discussed the importance of mental health and its connection to her Born This Way Foundation.
“With the Born This Way Foundation, my mother Cynthia Germanotta and our co-founder Maya, who I love so much, are working with the love of my life on something for mental health,” she said with a smile in the interview.
According to the organization’s official website, the Born This Way Foundation aims to “build a kinder, braver world” that promotes the mental health of young people.
Michael Polansky’s ex once wrote an editorial for the New York Times about him and Lady Gaga
In February 2020, Polansky’s ex Lindsay Crouse shocked the world when she wrote an op-ed for the New York Times about her ex’s new romance with Lady Gaga.
In the article, the journalist described her shocked reaction when she learned that Polansky was now dating Gaga. Their relationship lasted seven years and “lasted all the way through college and then a few years longer.”
“How do you compare to Lady Gaga?” she asked her readers. “Instead of thinking, ‘Why not me?’ when I see them together, I think, ‘That Was Me.'”
Crouse’s essay quickly spread like wildfire, reaching over three million page views on the Internet.
Michael Polansky is no newcomer to public displays of affection
On social media, Gaga has shared a series of photos of herself and Polansky together. On Valentine’s Day 2020, she shared a selfie of them and joked about the kisses they exchanged that evening.
She wrote: “Happy Valentine’s Day!! ‘Honey, do I have lipstick everywhere?’😂#ValentinesDay ❤️💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💕🧚♀️Happy Valentine’s Day to all my monsters!!! I love you!!! ❤️😘🎈.”
A month later, she posted a sweet snapshot of herself wrapping her arms around Polansky as he looked at her lovingly.
She captioned the photo: “Go out all night with your mommy 😘💋.”
However, the sweetest moment of tenderness between Gaga and Polansky was probably when they attended the inauguration of President Joe Biden and kissed through their face masks.
