GAGA DUDE'S A DUD!

Pals protest he's dragging her into the shallows

LADY GAGA and longtime beau Michael Polansky are still hot and heavy, but sources whisper he’s not a hit with her friends — who gripe the biz whiz is a control freak and far from a calming influence on the megastar!

“Behind the scenes, Gaga has become a more fragile person while dating Michael than at any other time,” snitches a source close to the pop diva.

The 38-year-old Shallow singer has been stepping out with the 46-year-old businessman since 2019 — but according to our mole, the relationship has “not been good” for the A Star Is Born sensation.

“Everything in her career is going great, but this relationship has not been good for her and she and Michael spend a ton of her downtime together,” tattles the tipster.
