American singer-songwriter Lady Gaga confirmed her engagement to Hollywood agent Christian Carino, during an acceptance speech she made on Monday night at the 25th Annual Women in Hollywood Celebration. During her speech reflecting on her role in A Star Is Born, the 32-year-old, referred to him as a fiancé and said, “fiancé, Christian.” She wiped away a tear as she thanked “her loved ones in her life who take care of her every day”.
Gaga and Carino, a talent agent, were first spotted together in January 2017, but have been low-key about their relationship.
During her speech, she also talked about the role women play Hollywood. “We women in Hollywood, we are voices. We have deep thoughts and ideas and beliefs and values about the world and we have the power to speak and be heard and fight back when we are silenced,” she said.
Gaga is earning rave reviews and Oscar buzz for her performance in A Star Is Born with Bradley Cooper.
The singer was previously engaged to actor Taylor Kinney, who she dated for four years before Kinney proposed on Valentine’s Day 2015. However, she announced that they’re on a break in 2016.
