"Kids will bring you down to earth with a thud"- Elle interviewer warns Lady Gaga while discussing the singer's family plans with her fiancé
During the interview with Elle, Lady Gaga (real name Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta) spoke about her family plans with fiancé Michael Polansky. While discussing, Lotte Jeffs warned the songstress that kids have a way of humbling someone, stating:
"As a parent to a 6-year-old myself, I warn Gaga that kids will bring you down to earth with a thud."
Jeffs elaborated that she initially planned on going to the toy store with her daughter but ended up interviewing the pop singer. Her disappointed daughter then penned the note.
"Yep, I say, kids are endlessly humbling. Gaga thinks the note is hilarious. ‘Oh, I’m ready,’ she says, folding the scrap of paper and putting it in her jacket pocket for those moments, we laugh, when she’s getting too big for her boots," she wrote.
The journalist continued to praise Lady Gaga's "sense of humor," noting that the letter would have backfired otherwise.
Elsewhere in the interview, the singer discussed her upcoming album, Mayhem. On Monday, she announced the seventh studio project, revealing that it was set to drop on March 7. It follows up on 2020’s Chromatica, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.
Per Billboard's January 27 article, she further added that a new single and a music video from the album would arrive on February 2, in a commercial break during the 2025 Grammys broadcast. Mayhem is preceded by her single, Disease (October 2024), and her collab with Bruno Mars, Die With a Smile (August 2024).
The latter song is nominated for Song of the Year and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards. The ceremony would take place at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. It would also air on CBS starting at 8 pm ET.
