Lady Gaga reportedly became a mom, and somehow kept it a total secret until now. According to TMZ, she welcomed a baby girl named Rose Bean via surrogate on June 9 in Los Angeles. Page Six reports that her inner circle didn’t find out until the news went public, which is almost impossible to pull off when you’re one of the most recognizable people on Earth.
The name is packed with meaning. Rose nods to her performance of“La Vie En Rose”in A Star Is Born, while Bean honors Carl Bean, the activist whose work inspired“Born This Way.”Sources say Gaga is now secluded in Northern California with fiancé Michael Polansky and the baby, and that the journey to starting a family was both physically and emotionally difficult.
There’s also a big career note here: a source says she’s done performing“for a very long while.”After years of arena tours and residencies, it sounds like Mother Monster is trading the stage for mom life, at least for now. So what do you think: would you be able to keep baby news this private, or would you spill immediately?
