Lady Gaga is living for the applause.
Indeed, the “Abracadabra” singer took home the trophy for Best Pop Vocal Album at the 2026 Grammys—hosted by Trevor Noah at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles Feb. 1—and a magical shoutout to her fiancé Michael Polansky, who she kissed before walking on stage.
“I have to say thank you first to my partner, Michael,” Gaga said while accepting the award. “You are by my side every single day in a way that I can’t thank you enough for, and you worked so hard with me on this record all year.”
The 39-year-old—whose fiancé is nominated alongside her for Album of the Year, since he is listed as a songwriter on Mayhem—added, “So, I love you and thank you.”
Gaga—who is nominated in seven categories at the awards show, including Record and Song of the Year—also gave some words of encouragement to her fellow women in music.
“I know sometimes when you’re in the studio with a bunch of guys, it can be hard,” she continued. “I urge you to always listen to yourself and always fight for your ideas, fight for your songs, fight for yourself as a producer. Make sure that you are heard loudly.”
Of course, in addition to supporting women, Gaga (real name Stefani Germanotta) has made a habit of giving Michael his flowers for helping her create the album, even before the Grammys.
