Lady Gaga Tells Elle About Her New “Boring” Era

…

Mother Monster is back! Lady Gaga is Elle‘s February 2025 cover star, captured in sparkling black Valentino by photographer Gray Sorrenti. While posing against sunlit windows, green foliage, and more for the edgy editorial, Gaga wears an array of equally dark fashion from Dior, Rick Owens, Valentino, Alexander McQueen, and Issey Miyake—plus a dress from her own fashion archive, and plenty of Tiffany & Co. jewels, all styled by Pau Avia. In her accompanying interview with Lotte Jeffs, the musician opens up about her new album Mayhem—which she virally teased on Instagram yesterday—along with facing personal challenges, finding serenity, her romance with fiancé Michael Polansky, and more.

Now approaching 40, Lady Gaga is focused on a future with her fiancé, Michael Polansky and starting a family. “I used to drink a lot and smoke a lot, and I was always looking for an out. I used to call it the trapdoor. I used to be like, ‘I need an escape route.’” she says. “Sometimes I worry people will say I’m boring these days, but honestly, thank God I’m boring. Thank God! Because I was living on the edge. I don’t know what was going to happen to me living that way. So the fact that I have these answers, on the one hand, I’m like, ‘Oh man, snooze fest!’ But actually, I’m so grateful. Because I found a sense of happiness and joy that is true to me.”
